Title: Very good
Review: I am still using it. Camera is great. Performance is superb. Very easy to setup. No complaints about the screen and size. Arrived in good condition as well.

Title: Yes. Just Yes. From a disillusioned iPhone user.
Review: The ONLY features I miss;1) auto-wake to locked screen on lifting.2) Fingerprint scanner should always be on the front – never the back.3) Would be nice if predicted text was 1/2 way accurate.4) I shouldn’t need a secret key to access my sandisk and phonecard – but I get it – SECURITY5) Now that I know it was worth it: Purchase with larger storage. Have gotten around this by purchasing 256GB Sandisk – YOU SEE APPLE? OFFER SOLUTIONS, NOT MORE EXPENSIVE PHONES.Positives? TOO MANY TO COUNT!Battery Life wonderful, Camera excellent, response-to-touch great, icons and general layout – easy to learn and adapt, so many actually useful features to discover even to this day and no more endless software updates (which Apple used to bombard me with – Prematurely causing my phone to reach the end of its usefulness in 12 months with 80%+ of its storage filled with ‘other’ software updates) etc etc.I got this unlocked Phone for £425 in Black Friday sales and put in a £10 a month Sim. This phone took me to East Africa and back – no problem as it set to cost me £240 in 2 years of use with 4GB data, Ulm Txts and Mins. Total cost £665.My iPhone cost me in total over two years £1536. That’s ridiculous. I’ll use the £800 odd quid saved on…Idon’t know – a holiday to Barcelona or something – it doesn’t matter, I’m rich now.Anyway, the bottom-line is you can’t go wrong with a policy of cash buying a two year old top-of-the-range smartphone instead of being locked in an exploitative 24 month contract.Happy Purchasing 😀

Title: Really happy with it
Review: I usually don’t write reviews but in this case I will.I bought this phone for a 3rd time.1st one got stolen, 2nd one was for my mum( she’s happy with it) and 3rd one I had to buy it for myself again.-Battery expectancy is overall good ( yes it will get drained faster depending on how much you use it, but tell me what device doesn’t).-It takes lovely photos and has good brightness. Yes it has a fragile screen as any phone these days has. ( use a case and screen protection and you’ll be good).It does everything I need it to do and more.I received it as a new phone and it came the next day (I have prime)As a third time buyer this says a lot.

Title: Excellent phone.
Review: Love this phone. After moving away from Samsung to LG I somewhat reluctantly decided to move back to Samsung after my LG died and I saw this deal on Amazon.The look, feel and performance of this phone are brilliant. It is really fast and responsive. Love the fingerprint recognition function and the fact that the phone is highly customizable thanks to Android.I received the phone on time but the reason I only give it 4 stars was that when I started the phone to begin the initial setup the first screen gave me 2 options to select, both of which were in what looked to be German. I randomly selected one of them which caused the phone to do a factory reset but once reset the instructions were then in English.Apart from the minor setup issue the phone is great.

Title: BRILLIANT!!!!!!!!
Review: This is a brilliant, great looking phone. I had the Samsung S7 Edge before I got the new Samsung S8+. The phones are very simaler but the new S8+ is a lot quicker, feels better in the hand and the screen is clearer. Great new addition to the camera with the Snapchat filters added for free!!!. Bixby is a good are also. Still getting used to it but it seems to be a good tool to have.I was very unsure about buying the phone off a 3rd party seller on Amazon as I know people how have been ripped off before and had a nightmare getting there money back but I can honestly say I am glad I did take the risk. The communication was brilliant and the phone came within 2 days of purchase in pristine condition. VERY HAPPY.It also works great with the Samsung Gear S3 Frontier watch.The only thing that was putting me off the new Samsung S8 and S8+ was the fingerprint scanner being at side of the camera on the back but it is really easy to use and to be honest it’s in the perfect place for ease of use.100% HAPPY with everything

Title: The choice is yours…form or function??!!
Review: Stunning to look at, but would not advise buying this phone.Quick enough to be fair but nothing special. Became laggy / less impressive as the weeks passed.After just 3 months use I managed to drop mine (in a case) from less than 10″ off floor and screen cracked top to bottom…Having searched forums I’m not the only one with same experience.Yes I know, “should have been more careful” but a premium phone should be more robust in my opinion. I fear the curved edges result in a more fragile screen! Back to boring screen edges for me. To be fair in use the screen edge bevel was more hindrance than help…but looks stunning!The choice is yours…form or function??!!

Title: Recommended
Review: Really great phone – first things though. do buy a screen protector for front and back, they are available for curved screens, the one I found is case friendly too. In that last regard do put a case on this phone, ok, if you want to wave the phone around and show it to everyone (and risk getting it pinched) this may offend someone’s sense of style but the phone will not look good for very long without one – the glass is strong but will crack and scratch before long and screen replacements can be ruinously expensive. It takes time to set the phone up but be patient, it is worth it. Some of the menus can be confusing but there is masses of online help. Battery life for me, used modestly and switched off at night, is brilliant. Turn off fast charging as this can reduce the overall life of the battery, it charges quickly anyway. This is so much better and now the price has dropped because the S9 has come out, more affordable.

Review: My first Galaxy S8+ is on its 6th year with me & a couple months ago got its first screen cracks so I bought another to have on-hand. Gonna see how long this puppy goes & enjoy the new one I just purchased. These phones work well & are durable when paired with a case.

Review: Das Handy ist Ersatz für mein altes, gleiches, aber leider zersplitterted Handy. Meine Bewertung betrifft daher nicht das Handy sondern den Anbieter.1. Bei Annahme des Paketes musste ich ca. 47 Euro für Zoll bezahlen. Das war nirgendwo vermerkt und macht jeglichem Preisvorteil zunichte. Ebenfalls wurde dem Paket ein europäischer Steckdosen-Adapter beigelegt, aber dieser passt nicht an den Anschluss des Handys. Insgesamt sehr viel Lehrgeld bezahlt.

Review: Keyboard didn’t work properly until I turned off the audible feature. After that, setup went smoothly. All my files and settings moved across easily with Smart Switch. CAUTION: (Something I learned from the old S8 phone): Don’t try to remove the back on this phone or replace the battery unless you have a PhD in this particular (glass-backed) design. You will end up breaking the glass back. It is NOT like any phone you’ve opened in the past!

Review: This is the first time I have ever received a phone from amazon that didnt work. I used the phone once, and the phone shuts off when at 30 percent. I contacted the company and told them the problem. they said they would call me. Then the phones battery got so hot it cracked the back of the phone. I wrote the vendor again and was told I couldnt return or get a refund. I would not recommend buying from this vendor. They dont offer returns or refunds for an item they sent that is defective and dangerous. Ive been buying from amazon for a long time and never had this kind of issue. Now I am stuck with a phone I cant use.
