    Would be great except that having the fingerprint reader on the back is awkward and very inconvenient! Also, its placement next to the camera lens means that the lens always has fingerprints on it and constantly needs cleaning! The octicore processors are fast and make for really smooth operation with minimal wait for responses.

    I had the Google Pixel for a while which is an excellent android phone but when I played with the S8 I had to have it. The camera is amazing and the fact that it can be dunked in water has already paid for itself.

    I've been an iPhone user for many years and just switched from iPhone 6 to the Galaxy S8 and I love this phone! Definitely more fun than an iPhone and runs smooth and fast. Camera quality is simply AMAZING as well!

    Nice phone but not the best call quality

    After being a long time iPhone user I decided to break out of my mold. I had the S8 for under two weeks but noticed that I had voicemails with no missed calls and poor call quality. This was in comparison to my almost 3 year old iPhone. When I called the carrier to see if it could be an issue with the new phone I was told that the iPhone had a larger antenna and that there was an update forthcoming to correct a call quality issue. Well needless to say with less than a day left to bail out I decided to go back to my old phone as I used it primarily as a phone. Hard to believe the difference between the two but it was a clear differentiation. I loved the features of the S8 but not it's ability as a phone.

    Love the feel of the smooth screen! I tried putting a screen protector on it but didn't like it so I don't use one now. So far no scratches & I'm amazed because I just throw it in my purse with my keys sometimes.

    Really love the bigger screen. Almost didn't update from my S5. Didn't think there would be that much difference between the screens, but there is. Also like the rapid picture taking ability, almost like a pro!

    I had a Samsung 5 prior to this phone and liked that phone and all it offered. The edge phone has advantages in that better camera, more memory than I had and also the edge screen where you can put frequently used apps for quick access. I prefer a smaller size phone which is why I choose this over the note.

    The backup and restore of previous phone settings was awesome. Kudos to the sales rep that helped me out. Phone is fast performing also. Too bad they changed the charge connector but they provide an adapter.

    We have always had Samsung phones since the first Galaxy and the biggest complaint has been about the battery. This phone has a much better battery but the charger is not compatible with old Galaxy phones.
