I went from a s4 to a note 4 then to a note 7 returned that to a s8+! I've had the phone now for two weeks and absolutely love it. I've customized it to my liking from Nova even though the touch wiz has gotten better to Gboard and so on. Battery life has been pretty good. I'm impressed and I love the optimized feature really brings out the guts of this phone. I use Iris to unlock the phone for me it works best better than facial recognition. I've had no issues with the phone besides the dqa error message but has been fixed with update. Just installed the bixby update today. I liked the orchard grey but went with the silver because I loved the chrome metal around the phone just thought it looked more detailed. And for a case I went with the neo hybrid really beautiful. Now just waiting for my gear VR to arrive.
