So far, the Samsung S8 is still the better phone, it's more reliable, I felt that the battery is no so great like iPhone. Samsung S8 has many accessories available to it. S8 has a car charger option, battery pack charger option, and many cases and screen protector options. Finally its a good Android phone.

So far I have liked the phone, I was an iphone user and I wanted to try Android, so wouldn't say is superior, but it is also good. The only thing, is the screen got a minor scratch the first week and I didn't drop it, so that gorilla glass, is not that strong I guess... Never had this issue with my iPhone.

While i normally like the galacy note series phones for their massive screens, the s8 has to be one of the best phones you can get for the price. Looks extremely sleek, the no bevel design is timeless and its just all around a great phone...and it doesnt cost a thousand bucks!!

I found the slanted glass along the edges made text hard to read as it was blurry due to the slope. The phone was also very long, almost like holding a banana. I was a bit peeved at the 35$ "restocking" fee, but I was glad to get rid of the latest and greatest Samsung phone.
I went with a flat screen LG G6 and couldn't be happier with my Android purchase.

Coming from an iPhone of 5+ years this phone is really good. I love that there is no integrated home button. It gives the phone a sleek design. One downside is the keyboard. Often I accidentally send before finish typing because it's small. Highly recommended. The warranty is really expensive compare to Apple care.

Admittedly this is my first smartphone and I'm going thru an extended learning curve. The feel and weight in my hand is comfortable. Being able to text is nice even with my fat fingers. Wish there were more choices of published Samsung S8 manuals available. Also wish it didn't come with so many pre-installed apps .

Bought Samsung 8, a fantastic product with great offer provided by Best Buy. It is almost one year, no issue in the phone. Also at the same time, I got Best Buy card which I using since last 1 year and getting the advantage of points.
Best Buy is simply Best...stores is like happening place.

I upgraded from a galaxy s5, which suddenly died. The s8 hanice features like a simple home screen and side tabs for favorite apps. This makes the user interface uncluttered. The home button is virtual not a physical button that is accidentally pressed while in a pants pocket or when handling the phone.

This phone stands head and shoulders above anything else out right now, with the newest Gorilla Glass, the new Snapdragon 835 chipset with the first 1GB modem! Bluetooth 5! The screen and camera are outstanding! AND THIS PHONE WORKS WITH ANY CARRIER! PLUS IT'S CHEAPER THAN CARRIER VERSIONS! AMAZING!

This phone was everything I ever wanted in an android phone, and I came from the Google Nexus 5. The hardware specs are very top-notch, resulting in a phone that is very streamlined while still retaining the customizable freedom of Android OS. I highly recommend reading in-depth articles for more information.

This phone is super sleek. Be careful at first though as it is also slick as snot! Almost dropped it twice within the first hour! Get a case. However it's ashame to cover this phone up. Also the Switch app works great and I pulled all my contacts straight over to the Samsung. Awesome phone!

After my Galaxy S6 died I opted to purchase the Galaxy S8 even though the S9 was available. To date, I have not been disappointed in my decision. The phone is easy to use and I can navigate through the many apps with ease. I especially like the fingerprint ID for accessing the phone.

Connect with the world when you make this phone your go-to smart device. Capture 4K video with the device’s 12 MP dual-camera setup and use its 8 MP front-facing camera to video call your favorite people. A qualcomm snapdragon 835 processor and 4 GB of dedicated RAM make this phone ideal for multitasking
