I had the phone just over a year. It broke down conveniently out of the warranty. I could use the phone for a while then it shuts down by itself. Then it gets into a boot loop. I have to wait a couple of hours to turn it back on. Rinse and repeat. I've brought it to Samsung authorized repair store for repair. The motherboard is OK. So they re-flashed the software and wiped my data clean. That didn't work either. I am now holding an expensive paperweight. I have used over 1 dozen of smart phones and this is the only one having such a weird issue. This company also uses a bait and switch trick on trade-ins. They initially gave you credit but later to rescind it. I'm never gonna buy another Samsung product again.

Pro: This Product has been my favorite device thus far! I have had 5 phones prior to this one and this one makes all of my previous phones feel cheap and low quality. I have had this device for 6 months now and it has not shown down. If you are looking for a phone that can last you a long time and a phone that can perform smoothly, then buy this product! It is great! Con: If you want fast updates, you might not get that. I have an unlocked Galaxy S8 US version and I have yet to receive Android Oreo 8.0.

Purchased phone as part of a b1g1f offer. Easy to learn functions. Gave other phone to mom who is a senior and knows nothing about technology. She had no problem learning basics of phone. Only drawback is the buttons on side for Bixbi. Can turn on often when grabbing phone.

I don't run out to buy every new phone out there. I have had my Samsung 5 for several years now. It was time to retire my old phone, and was really dreading the whole process of buying and setting up a new phone. My apprehension was totally unfounded... This phone is simple to set up, and simple to use. I love the camera, I was able to take some really great shots at grand daughter's softball game!

I had a Nokia Lumia that quit after about 5 years. It was a great phone and very easy to use. I was sold an Apple phone that was impossible to navigate. I returned it and got the galaxy S8 and find it a pleasure to use. It functions very close to the Nokia so was very easy to set up.

This is an awesome phone, this is my second time owning a Samsung Galaxy my previous phone was the galaxy S6. Before that it was an iPhone which I loved till it broke from there I went to the S6 and never looked back, Ive wanted this phone ever since there were rumors about it online. Even after the Note 7 disaster I still had hope and preordered the S8 first chance I got. The design is great, I have no problems with anything, I have not tried out the iris or face recognition yet. The clock on it kinda bugs me as the hours are on top and the minutes are below that and I don't know how to change it, Ive looked everywhere in the settings but it is a minor issue. It either can't be done or Ive missed it someplace.

The rounded edges make it very important that you find the right screen protector. Even with that - it lifted up with the case for a few days. Fingertip sensor on the back is the worst change. Right next to the camera and it's not a natural way to hold your hand. But face and eye recognition means I don't have to deal with that. Battery lasts much longer. Overall happy with the phone. I upgraded from the Samsung 5.

I bought my at an ATT store, and instantly I was in love with my new phone. Almost everything can be personalized except for one really annoying little button called Bixby, which has no apps that work with it that I want to use. My solution was to mute Bixby, but wish I could have that button work the app of my choice. Probably would just disable it though. The next huge issue that I have is the flat fingerprint scanner. On my old Nexus phone it had a concave finger print scanner on the back that could read your finger print in any direction, but on the Samsung phone you have to have you finger perfectly aligned or it wont be able to read your finger, and its sucks because as my beautiful nails grow, I can no longer use the finger print scanner. My last issue is the keyboard. The Samsung keyboard really sucks bad. I should have replaced it with another on the first day, but I didn't. Now that I have, the thing is amazing. The camera on this phone is better than that on my Lecia digital camera, or should I say a lot easier to use, the Lecia has too many technical options for me. But I can take better product shots with my phone than the Lecia. My last phone only came with a little bit of internal storage, so of course I love the ample storage on the S8. The sound volume & quality is also super amaizing.

This Samsung Galaxy S8 is the greatest piece of technology I own to this day, and I do have serveral lol. But from the design of the phone, the performance, and all around ease of use all while being simplistic yet sophisticated, IT IS FANTASTIC. My first Samsung Galaxy phone was the S3, from there I fell in love with Samsungs' design, functionality, and customization as compared to other big name brand companies, I'd take a Samsung every single time. The S8s' display is super clear, crisp, bright, and eye catching. Watching videos are wonderful and picture quality is outstanding. Samsung did a brilliant job with this phone and I am so glad that I purchased it. Keep Up the Amazing Work Samsung! I'll be a customer for life.

So far I'm liking my new phone. I had a LG g4 before this. It is a great size and it is very responsive. It has a number of greasy features that my old phone didn't. The only thing I wish was better was the camera. My LG still had a better camera, higher resolution, but this is still decent.
