i love my galaxy s8+
i love it
The Galaxy S8 is basically the underdog. Great performance for very few bucks.
i bought a s8 from ebay last week and its a great phone much better than my s5 mini i had before :)
Can you sell that phone?
I'll still be rocking my Note 8 for another year or two. Runs like a champ
My dad was thinking about getting this for me... Just wanted to do some research before actually getting it thanks!
I’m getting an s8 for 400 Australian dollars and it says it’s used as demo and 100% genuine Is that a good price for it
i upgraded my phone from s8 to s9plus then i have some issues in it i had pixel on my s9plus and my fingerprint skin had removed from use and its back glass crack when i was talking that i have case still it break and then i sell it and brought a s8
also good for pubg ??
Yes it has 4gb of ram it can most definitely handle it .
Yeah
My s8+ has all issue you mentioned
There are actually better screen protectors for s8 example screen protectors using uv light glue screen protector example dome glass
I have a 5c in my wishlist because I'm broke. I once had some type of Samsumg, but it too FOREVER to charge and ran out of charge very quickly. I was very glitchy ang had a tendency to get very hot. I moved back to my Iphone 5 in less than 6 months. Edit: It's ordered! It should arrive within a month! 😊😊
Riverdale tales But the Iphones in that price range are better sooo
@Wolfgang 847 damn well you can't buy any good phone for 100 dollars bro
Riverdale tales Moto also sucks. BTW, my budget was less than $100
iPhone 5 ? Bro you should get literally any other phone then a iPhone 5 maybe a iPhone 6s or a moto Android phone
Random :3 If you need to go for 400$ minimum to get a performance just slightly better than an Iphone 5 it's not really practical. If I wanted I could just get an Iphone 6 for under 200$ but those give a ton of hardware issues, the least of them being heating issues.
I paid 30 Euros for my broken s8 , i might repair it this month
Watching this with the best device, the Nintendo 2ds...
Someone help. My battery drains fast.
Go to a 3rd party shop and tell them you want only a new battery.
I'm a happy Samsung GS8 user 👍
*buys note 8 instead*
I have the s8 and it is a great phone but it definately doesn t have a 2 day battery life
Really? I was thinking on buying this
I own an S8 and just saying, there are some full adhesive screen protectors that really work nicely
seworld.info/will/pIfV0cezfYx0xKc/video Please check this kit for glass repair without changing the screen Can you demo it
Or u can get a s9 for like 510 bucks
That's too much
iPhone user why ???
Thoughts on taking a chance and buying this refurbished for $225 from Sprint or buying it new from Best Buy for $399? Can't decide if it's worth spending extra for a 2 year old phone.
@0o0oo0o hell yeah its worth it this phone is perfect
@PsychedelicRenegade Are you happy with it? $325 is good for brand new but just not sure if its worth shelling out the extra money for it.
I paid 325$ for mine on ebay brand new
I use galaxy s7 in 2019
Me, still having a Galaxy S8+: ???????
Phone has cancer
It's still great even if it's almost 3 years since I bought it. Speed is still fast and battery is still great. I use it a lot and I can't remember any difference b/n now and when I got it brand new. There are a few scratches but I believe it would still survive in the next couple of years without any repairs needed.
I receive notifications just fine on my galaxy s8. Maybe its your phone carrier
2 to 2.5 days with one charge?!? Absolute rubbish battery life in my experience i am sorry to say. With heavy use...lucky to get 4 hours
I just bought one of these for $165 USD with slight screen burn I think its a good phone but I definitely need a case and an OEM charger
Look at the video by clicking on the link below on Samsung Galaxy S8 Review..... seworld.info/will/kILQm7mooYSlmYE/video
Very nicely described, narrated and presented..... Good job done...
Planing to buy and repair one. All under $100. I'll edit when done.
@Ghost rider solid. As long as you're comfortable doing it. Very solid experience. Also the tools they give you are good for other phones.
And??
They still make samsung s8
Buy S10 *_AND_* S8.
READ THE WHOLE COMMENT. While the hardware of Samsung phones is great, even with one ui, the software isn’t great. One ui made things cleaner and easier to use with one hand but it’s way behind iOS in my opinion. First off Samsung only gives 2 years of software updates to its phones. So if you bought an s8 right now it would have one ui on it and while that’s the latest software right now, when buying a phone you have to think of how it will fare in the long term, this phone will not receive anymore software updates and so it will be missing out on the great features of newer updates but it will also be vulnerable to hacks and glitches more than a newer phone. One ui is still a very heavy skin on top of android even if it’s lighter than Samsung expierience so, it bogs the phone down considerably and adds bloatware. There are duplicate apps on Samsung phones that often confuse users about what app they should use. Do you really need a Samsung email app and a gmail? On the other hand buying an iPhone 7 or later now is a better buy because iPhones get 4 years of software updates and they have a lighter more optimized and simple to use os. That alone makes their phones a lot faster than android phones. The iPhone has iMessage which allows you to see when someone is typing or wether someone has read your message or not. It allows you to play games in the app with someone, you can pay eachother, you get better emojis, and cool onscreen effects like fireworks!!
I just purchased the s8 on Thursday for £355 brand new of amazon loved it best phone I've used so far
I want to buy one refurbished but I don't know where to buy one refurbished in my country
get the lg v30
1:56 Just reflash the phone using Odin and a .pit file.
I've flashed and abused my s8+ numerous times, about to do it again because fucking Verizon wifi calling don't work with my unlocked variant ~smh~
Got one for free :) just need to find a suitable screen now
2.5 days is great.. Mine was always 1 max if i am lucky.
Its expensive to replace tho it cost me 280 pounds for the back and front
Brand new S8 on ebay for £230
I have a s9, upgradeded from the Galaxy a8! Big difference, the a8 is like S9e or S9 lite! -Mid range processor -Lower quality camera -bigger bezels -no Bixby button (that was the only good thing about that phone)
Yeah i used A8 2018 before , then i changed it to other phone , keep changing and until now ended up with S10. 6 months ago i was using S9 , fantastic phone just the battery isn't that impressive , if the battery last all day i'll use it without changing , i switched to S9 plus because of the battery on S9 suck
lol
Just ordered mines
Was that 2 to 2.5 days of standby time? and it looked like you had the 8 plus not the regular 8. I had the galaxy S8 and my biggest gripe about it was the battery life. Full charge would still require me to bring my charger to work with me. Now I have the XR and it pry has the best battery ive ever used. But I miss my galaxy screen. Also miss android so my next phone will pry be the S10.
I have s8 and sucks..battery no last 1 day..too much heat for nothing. Display get burn shadow..
The Galaxy S8 Plus is the same price as a 2019 mid ranger, so this might be worth it.
I want s9 but s8 is cheaper
It's like holding a bar of soap. Cracks easy when dropped. Had it 3weeks before it slipped out of my hand.
Lemme guess, you didn't use a case ?
Own this and an iphone SE, cannot stand it, went back to using my iphone after the latest android update, still use the s8 for youtube but rely on ios for everything else
My first Android was some type of Samsumg that took FOREVER to charge and discharged quickly. It was also very glitchy and tended to get very hot. Needless to say, I went back to my Iphone 5.
Hugh do a Xiaomi y2 repair
I also like the small bezels better than other choices.
I'm happy with my s7 edge I just purchased
cna you please tell us what screen protector you are using?
I still use my s8 and I'll be honest it isn't that bad I freaking love it sure it has a little burn in on it but honestly that doesn't bother me that much
Given the bend, it was in someone's pocket
Very nice. I noticed that online they sell it with 41% dicounted amzn.to/2EM61vj
My Galaxy s9 doesn’t turn on or apps wouldn’t keep stopping glad I went back to apple I love my new iPhone 8!!!
I have a 5c in my wishlist because I'm broke. Currently tolerating two crappy LGs.
I have an iphone xs but i had an s8 for more than a year i thing this is the best android phone still today
Iphone xs max cost 549$ for repairing display
500€=2yers😒😒😒😒🤔
Ive Buyed the pione today😊👏
I'm sure the notifications thing is part of android Doze my phone does it too for select apps android has a hard time with battery management unlike iphones
That screen protector looks like trash.
The screen protectors never fit the curve of the phone and up close they have weird dot pattern that looks stupid
My s7 at times wont show new emails for few hours late or even a day and half late. Anybody know whats wrong with it??
Samsung A50 or Samsung S8?
Bought me to Galaxy S8 for me and my lady about 4 days ago and we both are still loving it. But in a couple months from now we'll be getting the Galaxy S10
Bought one two weeks ago, brand new. Really good but fragile as hell cracked the back even with a case on. Not even sure how it happened
late but still, how much did you pay for your battery replacement? and where did you get it? cuz I cant seem to find a legit one.
Watching this on the S8 ,still runs snappy as ever , camera still beastly
I just upgraded from the S8 to the S10
Worth the upgrade?
i’ve got a 7+. i’m thinking of trading an old iphone 6 for one of these. sound like a decent idea?
Not sure if it was device especific but mine got very hot when in use. Hot to the point my hands sweated. I'd probaly get a 5s or SE, or go up if you want
The vibration motor on the s8 is wayyyyy to strong I would have it on a table and it would vibrate like hell and sometimes scare me which is why I turned it down
Hi I'm using skinomi's screen protector since 2017 and a spigen liquid air case which makes it feel like a tank. Never had any issue with them and the screen protector is barely noticable
Watching it on my Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus
there is a gel screen protector doesent lose quality
I have s7 with one ui port blackdiamond
My s6 still working in vanilla Android, the display is incredible and still possible for me to unofficially update, but I'm fine with nougat for now.
A few years back, I would have said no, however now Samsung is ahead of Apple.
Watched on a galaxy s8+. Maybe 2 years old now. Fantastic product. And-subscribed
i have a s9+
Forgot oops
Oh yeah. I like your vids
Why am I watching a video about a phone I’m not gonna get or have
I got I phone 8
It is definitely worth it. However the major drawback with this phone's camera is the depth mode works only when the object is 50 cm in distance Anything beyond 50 cm depth mode will not capture while any other phone with this feature captures the picture in depth with any distance And there is heating jssues
Watching this on my s10+!
Just bought a 64gb gold s8 for 350 aud. Doesn't really feel our of date at all, and probably won't for at least 3 more years. I love it.
When u said has a good battery life of up to 2 days my face dropped my iPhone 6 runs for like a hour then dies !! 😂
Replacing bateries is soo easy nowdays.
Im stil using my s8 n it stil rocks.. 🤟🏼
I have a galaxy note 8 that needs the imei number changed.
You are using the wrong kind of screen protector. Try a screen protector that is glued to the screen with LOCA (liquid optically clear adhesive). I have a Note 9 with one of those screen protectors and you can barely tell there is another glass on the screen.
I have s8 and it's still running on 7.0 nougat ... How can i update it to pie and one ui
I've had my s8 for 2 years. It still works perfectly. Battery has maybe gotten a bit worse over time but Its great. Still fast and just as good as the newer phones in my mind.
Did you say 2 to 2and half days of battery life?
Should I buy this i have iPhone 6
Full glue tempered glass screen protectors are now avaliable for the S8 and S9
Android 9 update
