Customers are saying

Customers enjoy the Galaxy S8's camera, long battery life, user-friendly interface, and reasonable price point. They appreciate that the phone is unlocked, allowing them to use it with any carrier. Some users find the phone to be fragile and slippery, and dislike the pre-installed software (bloatware).

    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!

    I switched to Samsung after end up with having so many problem old sony xperia phone. This this my first time using Samsung and I have only had this phone for about 6 months, so I can't really tell how it will work over time. My sony phone will slow down over time, it made me so disappointed. I didn't use the features on the phone much, but I know the sound quality is good. And the camera is good too.

    I hate getting new phones as it seems to take forever to relearn how to do all the things I did with my old phone. That was not the case this time, YEAH! There are some changes but they are either more intuitive or demo'd well enough that I haven't had an issue. And move my info from phone to phone was painless.

    I like the phone, it has so many features and I am finding it difficult to figure them all out. Some apps that I also have on my IPhone 7 are the same app however they operate different on this phone and I find them much easier to use on the IPhone, maybe it's me. The phone though is really nice and I'm sure if I took the time to really get to know how to work it i'm sure it would be easier. Bottom line it is a nice phone and I am glad I bought it.

    Lost my phone on a trip so went to Best Buy to buy a replacement. The salesman was so helpful in trying to save me as much money as possible since my other phone was only 1 year old! Best phone and takes the best pictures and video. Glad I could buy the exact same one as my previous one!

    I really enjoy my new S8. It took me a while to get use to it and to find where everything is, but now I Love it. Great pics and lots of new things to explore. Bixby is a very nice feature and I used my translator the day after I got my phone on something I had ordered and the instructions were in Chinese.

    I absolutely love this phone! I did not want to let go of my Samsung Note 5 but it finally bit the dust. After shopping around a lot I finally caved and got the S8. I can honestly say this is by far my most favorite phone I have ever had. It has many functions and features I love and is super user friendly.

    Great phone. Significantly faster than the s7. The only thing that concerns me is the oled. My last phone had burned in images. I worry that this phone will eventually have the same problem. Oled looks great but the burn in makes it not worth spending money on.

    I upgraded from a galaxy S5, which I was very happy with except for the battery, which after 5 years or so was on its last legs. The S8 is great. Love the face recognition sign on. Pictures are fantastic. Phone operation is super fast and voices are very clear. Highly recommended.
