I plan on getting the S8 Plus. My worry is that the Note 8 comes out and it is so much better than the Galaxy and I end up spending like over $900 again right after buying the s8 Plus. IF there is indeed an S8 Plus and the screen size is as big as claimed I might not buy the Note then. The problem with the S7 is that the screen was too small for me so I bought the Note 7. I got the S7 Edge to replace the Note but the phone is still a bit too small for me.
I love the Spen but didn't use it a lot. A big reason I bought the Note was for the big screen. I hope the S8 Plus holds me off so I don't end up buying the Note and wasting more money. If the S7 edge had a bigger screen I might have held off for the Note 8 then. I got an unlocked V20 but don't like it much.
WOW - about half way through your post, I was thinking "Man, this guy needs some Decaf"- Seriously, just kidding - I'm calmly muddling along with my Galaxy S7 Active, dreaming about my Note 7 and patiently waiting for the Note 8! The hell with this S8/S8+ Decision!

I tried the S7 Edge when I turned in my (Replacement) Note 7 but my fat fingers kept tripping the edge features and driving me crazy. I always ran bulky, rugged looking cases on my phones, so my AT&T Rep immediately said "Hey Jim, take a look at this - you like rugged and you love battery life. She handed me the S7 Active... a few minutes later, I walked out the door with it. I was so disgusted with the Note 7 fiasco at that point, I didn't even care that the Active didn't have a lot of features. It works fine and will until the Note 8 arrives... just got Nougat Upgrade two nights ago. Having fun with that right now - it actually went really smooth for us. I've been reading that it was quite the fiasco for other phones, especially the Nexus guys??? Weird... I like it!I like my S7 Edge, but it's just a bit too small for me. I love the size of the V20 though.
I kinda hoped the S8 would be a flat screen option at 5.8 inches could fit in the same footprint at the LG G6
And then have the S8+ a curved 6.2 inch screen that would give us more of a choice to make as some I think would prefer a flat screen
I know that won't happen though lpl
