Wasn't Meant To Be !!
I am super disappointed in the lack of durability in the Samsung Galaxy S8. I am also disappointed in how the infinity screen really does not look infinity.

I'm a first time Android user coming from Apple first and then Microsoft. This phone blends a little of everything I've experienced with the former. The operating system works as its supposed to with tons of features. Battery life had been good and the phone is not terribly large that you can't hold it in one hand. I have a basic otter box snap on case that has good protection. I'm still exploring all the phone can do and this amazing screen makes it more enjoyable to do. I picked up the wireless samsung charger that works like a charm. Even has a little fan in the back! I'm really digging Android and now wondering why it took me so long!! Great job Samsung.

Great Phone, but has a different type size charger
9 years ago
Phone is great, but 2 things I've ALWAYS loved about samsung and other android type devices is that 1, you can take out the battery (can't with this phone) and 2, the charger is the same one that fits EVERYTHING else but an iPhone. This one requires a different size charger, so now I have to get a new car charger, and an extra charger so I don't have to haul a new one to the office.
Like I said, the phone is AWESOME, if I had realized the charger port was different I probably would have looked at a different phone. Might not be a big deal to most people, but I don't see a reason they needed to use a different one.
Still better then the iPhone.

Q: Compare the 8 plus to 6 plus edge
7 years agoOriginally posted on Samsung Galaxy S8+ - Orchid Gray
1 Answer
- A: Hi Kilo5465, The 8+ is by far superior, as it is 2 generations newer. You end up with a better process, battery, screen size, and many other things. The only thing that the 6 edge plus appears to be better is on the rear facing camera, but with that the technology to render pictures makes the pictures on the 8+ look better.
