    Got this phone to replace the Iphone 5S for my wife after she saw the Iphone 8, 8s, and X. She's now a happy Android user. The display is bright and clear. Easy to set up.

    Just got this phone a week ago, it works great, I love the way it looks and how slim it is. It's not a huge difference from the s8+, but I prefer it this size. If you have the s7 edge, it's definitely an upgrade. It's slimmer, and looks like it's 5 years newer than the s7 edge. The only thing is that I setup the fingerprint, but it's in the back, by the camera, so I haven't needed it yet. Overall a great purchase.

    The best Samsung Galaxy so far! The 9 and so on have minor improvements. The camera is amazing,the storage is amazing, the color is amazing. There's space for a memory card so even more space! If you can't afford one of the newer phones this is the one to get! The only bad thing the screen is curved so it breaks... but it didn't happen to me until after 2 years.

    And I've had quite a few of them. I confess, I'm an early adopting tech geek. I'm still learning my way around the UI changes in the version 7 OS but I think they've done a good job with it. I'm particularly impressed with the way it teaches you about new features a bit at a time, as I you use the phone. Performance is great. Much faster than my 5S and the display quality is killer.

    Excellent phone. Love the bells and whistles when it comes to security (facial recognition, fingerprint security etc.) The battery life is awesome - my grandson is on vacation and plays games all day long and never has to recharge, and of course there are lots of apps. The phone is smooth with no sharp edges, yet sturdy enough for a 12 year old. Love it!

    Awesome Screen, great camera. The fit in the had with the slimmer profile is fantastic. My only complaint... Finger pint scanner is on back of phone next to camera lens. I understand why, b/c the screen is so close to the edges, but being so close to the camera lens, I pretty much touch the lens every time before registering the fingerprint scanner causing fingerprints.

    The phone is great. Loving the screen for its vivid colors and clarity, beyond amazing pictures most of all and the battery last me up to 2 days with lots of texting, internet browsing etc. 4 stars because I have a problem with hearing people or me cutting off to people. Didnt have that problem with iphone at all and had the same service provider for both phones so maybe has to do with the galaxys s8 antenna. Other than that i love every single thing about the phone. I can deal with the one problem because it doesn't happen every time.

    An amazing and brilliant phone. Samsung never disappoints. I know every company has its issues but so far that I've had this phone since 21st of April I have no complaints. The processor is fast, the camera is amazing and the screen is beautiful. Plus it's water resistant how better can it get. Def. Recommend to all Samsung fans and for first time android users :)
