    I never spend a great deal of money on a phone, as most do. I was inclined to with a $200 price cut on this Galaxy S8. I have some issues seeing small icons and print. This phone is extremely customizable and this has made a huge difference for me, not just for my vision but for preferences with reminders, notifications, and other individualized items. Slim and easy to put in pocket. Definitely holds a charge much longer than I'm used to, can actually get to 40% and not cut out on me. Very easy to use.

    This is an amazing device. I had a Galaxy S5 before upgrading to this and it is a HUGE change for the better. There was a slight learning curve for me but only because I didn't get the S6 and S7, so I wasn't gradually introduced to them. But yeah, I am really impressed with how all of the minor gripes I had with my S5 were blown away by the S8.

    The camera on this phone is way better than the iPhone camera. Other features are very nice but camera sticks out as the plus!

    Overall this is a great phone. I have not had any problems yet. I understand complaints about the awkward placement of the fingerprint scanner, but it has not really been a problem for me, especially when you use the iris scanner. I came from the S6, and the S8 is much snappier/faster, and my battery lasts the whole day easy now.

    It's Samsung's Flagship phone. It's expected to be top of the line in all categories and it pretty much is. Incredible screen, super fast, excellent camera, etc. Some have complained about the placement of the fingerprint reader, but you can get used to its position and unlock the phone quickly. Iris scanner works quickly too.

    This is my 3rd Galaxy S series device and as always, this one has not disappointed at all. Excellent screen - a beauty to behold, awesome camera quality in both outdoor and low-light conditions, and a battery life to last 2 days with medium usage. Just wish that the Blue color had been around when I bought this.

    I upgraded from an s5 to the s8 and the difference between the two phones is amazing. The phone is fast and the camera takes amazing pictures. No shutter lag at all. While I can't compare this to an iPhone since I've never had one, it's a huge step up from my older s5 and am happy with the purchase so far.

    There are clear advantages the GS9 has over the GS8 but the value for a much cheaper phone is what makes this phone such a good value. It was a flagship phone just one year earlier. It's fast, same case/design and OS. You miss out on facial recognition but is that worth hundreds of $?

    The Bixby "feature" with the side button is in a terrible place, I turned it off. Extremely annoying! And why has samsung moved to non replaceable batteries that is also irritating.
