More storage, better security, daydream, better software support, metal over glass body (imo), etc. Really matters what features each person values over others.What features does the Pixel have over the S8?
I see the Galaxy S8 having features the Pixel doesn't have like:
Waterproofing
SD Card
Wireless charging
Facial recognition
Iris recognition
I love my Pixel XL....but I can't compare it to the S8 Plus yet until I actually have it in hand and used it for a while.
More storage how? S8 starts at 64GB then has SD card. Security is even with Knox. But updates go to the Pixel. Metal is only on half of the back of the Pixel.More storage, better security, daydream, better software support, metal over glass body (imo), etc. Really matters what features each person values over others.
128 > 64, SD can be discounted (IMO) because of the stability, security and performance issues that they introduce. Very much depends on the user, just saying I can make a case for it.More storage how? S8 starts at 64GB then has SD card. Security is even with Knox. But updates go to the Pixel.

Oh, that's fine. 5G is really 4G speed so it's a whole lot of meh. Also won't matter until Verizon sends it wide, test markets don't matter in this game.Only 835 chip supports 5g

Disagree with you on Knox. It is the standard for security...They worked with Google to develop Knox. Storage goes to the S8 as you get more to start with then can add more. Then you forgot waterproofing and wireless charging. Nougat us a big game changer for Android. My S7 edge with Nougat was so smooth and so is the S8 from the 3 or 4 times I have played with it at BB.128 > 64, SD can be discounted (IMO) because of the stability, security and performance issues that they introduce.

I don't count Knox as security unless I'm thinking as a business operator. If including that use case though, have to eliminate fps, Iris, etc as features, because they're all very weak compared to common sense and strong policy when coupled with ongoing security updates. But Samsung continually launches on dated software and falls further behind rather than closing the gap, so they intend Knox as a bandaid on the hole.
It is literally the same speed. 4G covers speeds up to 1 Gbps. 5G was recently redefined to be peak speeds up to 1 Gbps. The difference is NOT speed, it's how many people can simultaneously receive speeds in the >= 100 Mbps download without distortion.Wrong.it's 18 times faster.
IMO the S8 goes a Long long long way to catching up with the Pixel, and I definitely appreciate the positive changes. Getting rid of the physical buttons, adding a rear fps, a better implementation of flat design and a continued emphasis on one of the best cameras and displays in the industry make it very compelling. The last steps might be the most important, and that's trading out SD for proper storage, getting on board with guaranteed security updates (and following through) and adoption of the mobile technology standards already in existing, rather than pushing redundant and largely ineffectual alternatives. They came 40% my way on this device and I was considering meeting them the rest of the way, but we're not quite to where that'll work.
I didn't say it wasn't real lol. I said it won't be widespread like LTE anytime soon. Go look at T-Mobile.. they say 2020. Of course they're testing it now but testing doesn't mean everyday consumer use.I'm done.20 yrs in development says it's real so does Qualcomm
