    Picked up my order fast and easily. Friendly staff. The S8+ actually changed me from a long time iphone user/lover to a now Android user/lover. Iris and face detection. Bixby voice commands leave Siri in the dust! The newest technology out at a great low price being an unlocked phone. Very satisfied! I enjoy this phone so much that I also purchased 1 for a good friend of mine. Plus the unlocked version currently works for almost all GSM and CDMA carriers except Boost atm which is almost perfect. Most every unlocked phone is only compatible with GSM carriers and a few with only CDMA carriers, this can do both without issue. All I did was insert my AT&T sim, turned on the phone, and the phone was useable immediately! No additional steps needed.

    The battery life is beyond excellent, screen and camera resolution are well beyond expectation, and the time for downloading and installing system updates is orders of magnitude faster than my old Galaxy S4.

    I planned on a Note 7, but the S8+ is about same size and performs well. Craved processing speed and this delivers. Transition from S5 handled seamlessly by Best Buy Samsung expert team member and this is why I will only use Best Buy. Service superb, know their stuff, and super attentive. All data carried over perfectly, easiest phone transiton I've ever experienced. Features intuitive and easy to tweak security and other features to my liking. Camera images excellent. Cricket customer and no issues with card install into this unlocked phone. Glad i made this purchase.

    Excellent cell phone at a great price! I used to be an apple user and the features on this android Samsung S8+ are not even compatible to Apple 7 plus, highly recommend you switch to Samsung / Android!

    I like everything about this phone. It is fast, the resolution is perfect, and the battery doesn't run so fast and lasts for a long time. I would definitely recommend it to everyone.

    I had great expectations, but kinda disappointed as I started using it. However, the pros still outweigh the cons. Great looks/features, storage capacity and speed are the primary pros. Cons are: (1) Weather with location and day/time update are not automatic. You’ll have to refresh it.; (2) Some settings are limited and confusing.; (3) People pics appear photoshopped or dark blurry, and tap screen shooting method is only available for the front camera.; and (4) Others I couldn't not remember right now, and others I might discover later. I was really excited to get this, even though I just gotten my new S7 Edge, which mysteriously just died. Happy that there is still warranty for the S7. I got the replacement and will keep it as a spare or give away as a gift. I love the S7 but was enticed to get the S8 bec. of all the hype. Oh, well. If and when there's an S9, I'll pass. Maybe.

    I love the screen display. Much clearer than my Galaxy Note II. Very fast and responsive. Hotspot seems faster on this phone than my last one. Battery is lasting almost two days. Very happy so far.
