worth the upgrade? s7-s8+

[NiffiIsenguard]

So I currently have an S7. Been checking out the s8+ in store. It feels super nice in the hand even with the tether on the back. I found it easy from where I normally hold the phone to access everything and the finger front scanner. I have big hands so that's why I've been looking at the plus.

Before I buy tech I do my research how ever I don't have any personal opinions. So figured I'd ask the community that helped me decide to even Juno into android in the first place.

What do you like or dislike about it?

There's also quite a lot of information in the S8 forum stickies.

Well worth the upgrade if just for the size difference alone. I have smaller hands and my S8 Plus feels great in my hand. I'm also an iPhone user. I went from a 6 to a 7 Plus and was so thrilled with the extra screen space. So when it came to buying an Android the plus size was a given. Love my S8 Plus.

I had the 7edge. Upgraded to 8+. For me, it's been a FAR better device, just outstanding. No lag, doesn't heat up all the time like the 7 edge did that I had, very fast, smooth, great camera, list goes on.

I think it's very well worth the upgrade. I came from the s7 edge after the note 7 double recall. I was happy with my s7 and didn't really care about the s8 and was waiting on the note 8. To me it didn't seem like a big enough upgrade to switch. I went running with my son and my s7 went flying and out of my pocket and the front screen smashed. I didn't have insurance and didn't want to spend 300 to fix it. So I upgraded to the s8+ and I can't can't believe how great it is. I have zero lag and actually like where the fingerprint sensor is. And the display is fantastic.

Mike I had gone thru the double note 7 recall as well. To me, the S8+ is pretty comparable to the Note 7 and I'm thrilled about that

Ok cool. Cause I love the idea of the Note.. but to me the spen is just gimmicky.

If I'm doodling on a tablet I use my iPad anyways

Went from the S7e to the S8+ and I am not missing the 7 one bit. I even love the placement of the fps.
