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).

    Pictures, graphics, text all very good quality. I also bought theTech21 - Evo Check Case for Samsung Galaxy S8 which looks very good but it is difficult to press the right side button to turn in on and off. I have to press the edge of my thumbnail to the recessed long button and press hard to get it to work. But that's the case not the phone. Much improved (easier) way to wake up the phone than my Galaxy 6. Very happy so far. The different procedures to operate the phone is much improved over the S6 involve breaking habits and reprogramming myself is taking some time but it's not a deal breaker.

    I bought it for the camera. I know that Samsung has the equivalent camera to iphones, but I prefer android. So far, the phone is great!

    Photos are excellent quality however i can’t figure out how to get my photos onto an sd card. I have to say the people at Best Buy are very good and they take time to help show you how to operate the phone

    I bought this to work with my S3 Tablet better. This phone is very nice and operates well. I found it very easy to transfer information from my old phone to my new phone. My old phone was an LG V20. I use Net10 as my carrier and all I had to do was put my sim card from my old phone into my Samsung S8 and it worked without a problem. Just like it was always my phone. I am thinking about an S9 now. I liked it being unlocked and is on a CDMA Network without all the associated garbage apps. And it is LTE too.

    The Galaxy S8 is an excellent phone, it has a very good camera. The 64GB is fine, you can add more capacity if you want.

    Another great purchase from Best Buy. It took me a bit of time to convince my wife that this was the phone she needed and that Best Buy was the better place from which to purchase. We picked the phone up at the local Best Buy and the Tech at Best Buy helped us greatly by updating the machine and reactivating the phone, which was so well done for us. The Staff was so helpful with our SIM card and getting the phone activated for us.
