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).

    Great phone, the camera is a little deceptive compare to the S7. But overall i love it. I have been using it for over a year now

    I have the S5 and bought this because of the terrific discount. Not used to it yet I do enjoy the volume control and the loud ring. I love my S5, especially the camera, but I do find my new S8 has a quicker response to sending photos to people. The picture quality is excellent. The screen is clear, the icons bright and altogether it is a beautiful lightweight upgrade phone.

    Fast and powerful, though battery could be better

    The placement of the fingerprint reader is overblown. Even with the newer S9 where the fingerprint reader has been turned 90 degrees, fingerprint smudges is still a possibility. The S8 is still good but at almost 3 years since release it may not receive much more updates to the OS. I'd only recommend this phone if you know this and can get a great deal on it. Battery life on a full charge seems to be an issue, it seems to drain fairly fast. But it can recharge fast, too.

    Had to return this phone a day or two later as it wasn't functioning properly. Turns out AT&T (my service provider) doesn't always work well with the unlocked phones. Wish I would have known prior to purchasing it. Ended up buying a S8 that was an AT&T phone (not an unlocked phone) and it works great. Posting this just so you may avoid the same headache I experienced trying to save money by buying an unlocked phone.

    The phone is great but certain things in the system like not popping up login screen for public WiFi still need to be fixed. The shopping experience was kind of annoying because in order to do a price match for $40 I have to go pick it up in a different location just because of the color and I couldn't apply any of the other promotions like the $50 cricket free credit
