Customers are saying

Some users find the phone to be fragile and slippery, and dislike the pre-installed software (bloatware).

    The Galaxy S8 Unlocked is one of the best phones for the price. Great build and still has a fast processor (SD 845). Samsung has the best screens in the business, sound is clear, and it has a headphone jack. 64GB of storage was enough for me as I use Google Photos to save space but you can always put in an SD card up to 512GB I believe. The phone is also IP certified and currently (2019) runs Android 9 Pie.

    The timing is right. I've been needing to replace my Samsung S5 and came in to BB to see what's on sale. The GS8 was on sale and unlocked meaning I didn't need to change my provider plan at all. I love Ssmsung products.

    Good phone with no bloatware. Overall battery life is great and is a fast phone, however 2 cons for me. First no wifi calling support and can be sluggish and unresponsive. That should be taken care on next update. Worth the money for this phone.
