Are you going to pre-order an S8?

[James Falconer]

Are you going to pre-order one in April? If yes, awesome! If not, how come?

I'm going to go with Nope on preordering it or buying one. After what they have done update wise on carrier versions and then basically the finger to people that purchased even the unlocked model. they are pretty much dead to me. I don't care how advance their tech is as their customer service is atrocious. They have spit in my face long ago now everyone else may be starting to see the same from this company.

That sucks Sorry to hear that

I'm not going to preorder, but might pick one up if I see a ridiculous deal.

 

[James Falconer]

Deals FTW!

I'm not buying one at all. Great phone, but I'm not a Sammy fan. Maybe if they introduced something ground breaking and added a HIFI DAC, I would give them a shot. I'm not the average consumer and I'm stuck on the idea of the built in DAC/Amp. Its brought the music I listen to to a whole new level and I can't fathom carrying around a separate amp.

Which new phone this year has a Hi-fi DAC?

 

[ol_jackburton]

The LG V20 was released in 4th quarter 2016. If I were to buy anything this year I'd wait for V30.

 

[KupKrazy]

I want to, but not sure. If I do, it won't be through Best Buy, that's for sure.

Agreed

Wouldn't want to Pre-order and then we find out about screens melting, headphone jacks falling out or whatever haha. Rather wait a couple weeks and then scour the internet for daily deals and snag one then. Deals and specials are so awesome!

I'm kinda leaning towards this as well. I'd rather buy it at the Tmobile store in case I have to return the device. I ordered mine hoping I'd get it early and we ended up only getting the Note 7 one day early and with the recall since it wasn't purchased in store, it was a lot more of a pain and everyone on here knows how it took months to get my refund straightened out. So I might wait a few weeks to see if any issues with it. I might have to order it still if no stores have it. I only have one in my county so if they're out of it I have to drive 30 miles for another store!!

ex-Note 7 owners should learn our lesson

I'm not sure about preordering. I preordered the Note7 and that turned out to be a spectacular failure. I'm skeptical this time around.

 

[furiousyellow]

I'm excited for the S8 but I don't believe I will pre-order. I really need Android Auto to be confirmed working on it with my brand of car before I switch over.

 

[Diehlirious]

No here. More interested in waiting for the Note 8 if anything.

Has there been any rumors of an enhanced audio experience coming in the S8?

Definitely planning on it. In years past, if my upgrade date is within 30 days, I've been able to get a managers override on AT&T.

 

[cowboys2000]

My upgrade isn't unitl July 2017.

Since I have an S7 (S6 insurance replacement), I could wait on the fall flagships or a black friday deal.

No due to curved screen !
