Got this phone for my husband, upgrading from an s5 active. This phone is much slimmer and sleeker than the s5 active. It looks and works great, but he has a hard time holding on to it with his mechanics hands. Going to have to get a case for it and see if that helps.

I have been an Apple user since day 1, however my iPhone 6s was giving me issues: screen locking, having to do hard resets, unable to download apps. A number of issues. So when the new S8 came out, I decided to give it a try. It's a beautiful and functional phone. The screen is amazing, it takes great photos. It was very fast and easy to set up. The only CON to this phone: I can't get my icloud emails on the phone. I have been having issues getting that to work. The battery life is pretty outstanding. I will start my day with a 100% charge, and after a full day of calls, webex meetings, etc I will end with about 32%. Much better than what I was getting with my iPhone 6s. Now, I do keep the phone on the battery conserve mode and I should say, I am in IT Marketing, so I am on my phone all the time.

I upgraded from Sunday to s8 thinking the glass body would make this more durable, phone. I was wrong,had screen cracked,so had it replaced,with insurance,still cost you fee,45 days later ,phone fell from,couch to floor with case that is full body built in screen protector,and it lasted only 45 days so.before I spend any more $$ top the already high dollar price they want charge I'm not paying to replace a faulty device over & over,I will get iphone,who u don't see them having these issue on going, instead of wry about paying for repair, whenever it's clearly all over internet,about these screen issues on s8! Very disappointed such nice phone with cheap non tempered glass. Very much over priced for the damages it repeats.

I was trying to decide between the lower priced Galaxy S7 and the unproven S8. I'm so glad I decided to go with the S8! The S8 is definitely the best phone I have ever had. It looks and feels great, and you can optimize just about everything from the amount of blue light emitted to the screen resolution to the touch pressure and sound output. I have not had any problems with the biometrics that I've read about in some internet reviews.

Samsung, Google, and A.T all T. have apps going on this thing. I disabled all the automatic updates, yet something called "launcher" updated on its own. Still don't know what it was. After that, the phone froze up, I had 20 apps disappear and it kept restarting in a loop. I also couldn't get any of the recognition software to work. I think that was part of the issue as well, because the screen it would freeze on was my lock pattern screen/face recognition screen (which never worked!). So back it went to the store. Don't know if I'll try another one. Hope this one was just a lemon. Also, the phone has way too much stuff on it, and that's b/c of the 3 different brands competing on this phone. All the Samsung junk, the Google junk (that you need), and the loaded A.T and T bloatware. If iPhone had Swipe, I'd probably get one.

I loved this phone but it doesn't work with iPhones. My family and friends all have iPhones so any group texts- I didn't get. Videos that were sent- were all blurry and pictures- didn't look great. Other than that, great phone! I really liked it a lot and wished I could keep it, but staying in touch with my family is more important so it was returned.

I have had the new Galaxie S8 activated for less than a week and I am disgusted with my choice of this device. The battery life is my biggest bone of contention. The manufacturer boasts of around one Hundred hours stand by time. In fact the stand by time is about a third of that. The phone is a real problem just getting contacts and music downloads transferred from my old phone. Getting this phone set up takes an electronic engineer. Samsung does not send instructions or provide on line help. I have not had a Samsung phone ever, and will not have another one. Don't waste your money on this expensive Samsung junk!!

I love my S8. It has a lot of different settings and is pretty easy to use.

This phone runs on God speed and makes my iPhone look like trash.

Really fast and completely functional. Great camera and ..just fast
