What Are You Upgrading From

iphone 6s. Why? Because I'm sick of not having any choice in the phone that I have.

Ever since I started working for my current company, I've been using the company phone for both personal and work purposes. I imported my personal number into the phone and voila the phone has both my work and personal numbers. Call either number and the same phone rings. The upside to it is I don't have to carry around 2 phones with me like most people and I get a free phone every 2 years. The downside is I hate the iphone with a passion. I really hate it. I've always been an android person.

So, when I saw the S8 keynote presentation, I decided screw the free phone from the company thing. I'm getting a phone that I actually want.

Well, the spouse is currently using a droid that's a hand-me-down. Yeah, we both have been frugal. So, I told him screw the hand-me-down droid let me buy you an S8. And screw being frugal.

So, here I am buying 2 super-expensive phones. Sure, I'm scheduled to have surgery to sell one of my kidneys to afford the phones, but at least I'm not a slave to the iphone anymore.

Too dramatic?
 
Not really an upgrade, more like a sidegrade lol. My Pixel XL is still awesome. I just like to try new phones. If I dont like the S8+, ill go back to my Pixel XL. :)
 
Upgrading from a S7Edge which I was pretty much forced to get after the Note 7. Not been a massive fan of it overall so was more than happy to upgrade early.

I'm also cone from the s7e. Personally all the accidental touches is irritating the heck out of me.
 
LG G5. Yeah, I was one of the few. I just love being able to swap batteries and will miss that - and folks, though I never bought a "friend" and never wanted to, the phone is just fine if you ignore the modularity - but I'm super excited about upgrading to the S8+.

Agreed. The G5 was actually kinda great if you looked past the modularity. I'm also looking forward to the GS8.

"... More like a sidegrade" LOOL that is an amazing phrase! Let us know how you like the S8+!
 
I will be upgrading from an S5 which I'm still happy with but really can't wait for the S8 to get here tomorrow!!
 
LG G4. It's apparently going to take a while before I stop double-tapping the screen on my 8+, trying to wake it....

I thought the same thing, until I bought the Honor 8. Swapping between that and the G5, I actually found it pretty easy going back to the old way, with the lock button on the right.

Also, I'm totally jumping to the GS8 today!
 
Went from an S6 Active, to S7 Active, to V20. All were very excellent phones but still just wasn't good enough. The S8+ will sure to please for a long time.
 
I'm upgrading from the S6 edge.
I ordered through Samsung.com but am a VZW customer. I'm at work but can see that my phone was been delivered to my house this morning(yay!). Will I need to go in to the store to activate my phone?
