I've pre-ordered the S8 in grey as I am sue an upgrade. Currently using an LG G4.

Phone looks amazing and the serious lack of bezels is vey impressive.

Re: Samsung Galaxy S8
 

looks nice, waiting on the reviews though + 6 months for anything to surface.

They've come a long way since the iphone clone Galaxy S with that godawful Touchwhizz

Re: Samsung Galaxy S8
 

What do you mean +6 months?

So far al lthe hands on and early previews indicate its a fantastic device.

Re: Samsung Galaxy S8
 

I'm waiting for the Note 8

Re: Samsung Galaxy S8
 

With the S8+ having a gargantuan 6.2 inch screen I'm not sure what a new note could offer apart from the stylus as the feature list of the new handset is impressive.

Also refurbished note 7s will be sold in some markets so a note 8 may not happen.

Re: Samsung Galaxy S8
 

l wonder what price they will be selling these refurbished note 7s at?

Re: Samsung Galaxy S8
 

Why?

Staff cant pre order....

Re: Samsung Galaxy S8
 

Really. That sucks.

Also if you pre-order in the USA you get a free Gear VR but there are no pre-order bonuses unless you count getting it 8 days early a bonus.

Release is 28th April but you will receive it on the 20th

Re: Samsung Galaxy S8
 

+6 months means you wait until 6 months after launch for any gremlins to surface.

Re: Samsung Galaxy S8
 

Indeed as previous history has taught us to be a little cautious.

Re: Samsung Galaxy S8
 

Yes, I keep a very close eye on phone tech, and seemingly awesome devices are often marred by something later fixed - or not, either way it's good to be careful.

GSM.Arena is the most robust of the sites for doing reviews, and XDA-Developers the best forums for all things Android, with dedicated forums for each phone model.

Re: Samsung Galaxy S8
 

I am always up to date on tech and have bought all my phones at launch and never really had any issues. Small software niggles can be fixed so it not an issue for me.

Re: Samsung Galaxy S8
 

Nice to see that Samsung have not followed Apple's marketing gimmickry tactics and included a headphone jack.

Awaiting real world battery life opinions with baited breath though. I'm not at all happy with my S7 Edge after the Nougat upgrade. Not sure if it's Samsung's build or just something on my handset.

Re: Samsung Galaxy S8
 

I hope its ok, I quite closely scrutinized the S7 Edge but was somewhat put off by what seems to be a high number of broken screens
