Did you keep your S8 / S8+?

[amyf27]

Love my S8+!! Both my me and my husband are coming from iPhone 7 pluses! We both aren't going back anytime soon.

What's the main advantage you see over the iPhone 7 Plus ? I always had a little interest in them but hasn't tried them out. I've got the 8plus..loving it !

Customization- but that's just Android in general. The only thing you can do on an iPhone is change the wallpaper. LOL. On Android, you can change almost anything.

Amyf27 I'm very happy , I just like the bigger screen

 

[jtcannonball]

You're worse than me lmao!

They told me I could not exchange my case. So I'm stuck with a G6 case. fleaBay it goes.

Keeping mine! I was using S6 though...so big upgrade for me.

I returned mine after returning home from vacation with it. An absolutely beautiful device and the specs were top-notch but I just can't come to terms with the curved screen. I had a good case but no screen protection, which for this phone always had me " on edge". I really wish Samsung would have made a flat-screen version of the S8+. And being on Verizon unlocked phones really aren't an option so my choices are few. However, if there's a better concensus on a screen protector for the S8s I'll gladly consider it again.

I am waiting for the Note 8. I have been tempted but I shall not succumb. Praise jeezus!

 

[zipro]

Nope, back to the 7 Plus

this device will be going back as soon as the new htc flagship drops. while it is a great looking device. i cant get over the battery life and the red tint on my device. i have changed nothing with my usage since day 1 and the battery life was awesome, now it ****s the bed and i need to charge it once before i leave work because i have an hour drive home. its dissapointing

Kept my s8+ for just over 2 weeks before getting itchy feet again and ordered the LG G6 to replace it with. I like the s8+ but I was starting to have issues with the rear camera. The camera app was becoming very stuttery (unless you changed to 16:9 and it became smooth again) and also many times I launched the camera and it was seriously blurry and couldn't focus but if I shook the phone it ofter cleared so I'm thinking a problem with the OIS. I had the iPhone 7Plus before the s8+ and I'd say the iPhone cameras were miles ahead of both the s8+ and the LG G6 and I still think the LG is a better shooter than the Galaxy

Keeping mine but just hate I feel it's like I'm carrying a new born. Screen protector and case yet all the crap about it being so fragile. I jumped from the S5 Active and wish they had an S8 Active already.

Don't get caught then whateverone says if you have a case on it and you're not careless you should be fine

Oh believe me I have a case and glass screen protector and carry it basically like it's an egg.

I have a case on mine and I am very careful with it but I don't let it overstress me that is unless of course I leave it in the starbucks store like I did the one day l o l. Luckily though I remembered before I left in the car

I've got an S8 and S8+ here and I just can't help but feel like I am going to drop this S8+. I don't use cases, just microfiber Fitbag pouches. If the S8+ was a little wider / less top heavy I might feel better with it. I use my Pixel XL without a case and it feels fine in one hand, probably because you don't have to reach so high with your thumb to pull down the notification window.

 

[amyf27]

I know I'd be nervous if I didn't have a case on. It is a bit slippery and without the case support it's easier to possibly drop, then without the case you're sure to have some form of damage even if it's just a little knick.

 

[Ihazterbo]

If it helps my husband dropped his after 2 weeks. It made a small bullet hole in the side and then cracks going all they way across, but not your typical spider cracks. It was in a case with a glass screen protector. Luckily we signed up for the Samsung Care Plus and he had a new phone overnighted. He had to pay 99.00 deductible but can't complain on that.

Best phone since the Note 7.

Had the Pixel XL, iPhone 7 Plus, GS7E, One Plus 3T, Note 7.

I would rank them in this order (leaving the Note 7 out of it, RIP),

Galaxy S8+
iPhone 7 Plus
Google Pixel
