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).

    I have had my S8 for about 1 month now. Have had Samsung Galaxy's for several years now and recently upgraded from a Note 4. This phone, while smaller than my Note, is sleek and fast. Have yet to go through many of the new functions of the phone, have been impressed with the screen, camera and processor speed.

    The screen resolution, contrast, Brightness, colors are awesome unmatch by my iPhone 7 Plus. A video from youtube a photo from instagram are a pleasure. Also the responsiveness and perfoman are good but sometime there is a delay on the screen or you have to pinch an area to click on something tiny otherwise it doesnt recognize you touch on that tiny element on the screen! It's no a deal breaker but in that aspect iphone are better, also there are some miss touch because of the screen borders while you get use to this. I wouldn't use as my primary mobile device because I'm very into apple trap ecosystem, iPad, watch, tv, mac, apps, that for me it's imposible to lift but for someone not into it it's a great choice and for 574$ it's a great deal. Don't let it pass. As a second device I enjoy it a lot.

    This was a great purchase, the phone is amazing, really fast between apps and has a great camera. The biggest improvement from the previous version is battery life and that it has the capacity to add a memory card. So basically for me, no more running out of space and getting back home at night with more than a quarter of battery (using it a lot all day) is priceless!! I would recommend a Speck Presidio case for its shock protection technology.

    I gave my Galaxy S5 to a disabled relative, and needed a new phone the same day. Found the unlocked Galaxy S8. Photographs are beautiful. Rarely use my DSLR camera! This S8 has no glitches or problems my old cell phones had.

    Has all the bells and whistles I could want. Have a class coming up with Samsung rep to clue me in on how to use this phone to it fullest. I am a 71 year old grandma and not real comfortable with so much new technology. Should be fun.
