Anyone else feel the Galaxy S8 is too small to hold?

Not! My wife...who is 5 foot 2" held the s8...said way too small...she came from a note 7....said G6 was much better feeling in the hand. S8+ looked great...but waiting on Note 8. G6> S8. Our opinion. Love our G6.
 
Well I've held them both now, and for me the S8 is nice (though slippery), the S8+ is too big. Which is what I expected from the specs, but I like to directly confirm.
 
I like how the S8 feels more compact than the S7 edge. Here it is next to my S7 edge and S6 edge. I also brought my iPhone 7 plus which I used to take the pic.

Ah, dammit. Of course, I'm starting to get on the fence as to whether or not I should cancel my S8 preorder and go with the S8+. I'm holding my G6 that I'm about to return in a few days, and while I like the size, maybe it's just Gboard I'm still getting used to from my iPhone 7 Plus, I'm experiencing a lot of typos that may be attributed to the G6's screen size. If the S8 is narrower, my typing accuracy may even get worse.

I went to my local tmobile store to look at both phones... I'm happy I ordered the S8 plus... It's perfectly sized
The S8 is too narrow... Would be a problem trying to type on it specially coming from a note 7
There's also the battery to consider

Yeah it's always good to chem them out in person because pictures don't tell the whole story. Glad you were able to make the right choice. Now we all just got to play the waiting game.
