Samsung Galaxy S8+ 64GB Unlocked Phone - 6.2" Screen - International Version (Midnight Black)
Color:Midnight Black
As the name suggests, the Samsung Galaxy S8+ is a larger version of the Galaxy S8, equipped with an even bigger, 6.2-inch Infinity display stretching from edge to edge. The screen is also taller, allowing the phone to remain so...
The best looking screen on any mass market phone ever produced-Excellent camera performance-Lighter version of Touchwiz (Samsung OS) including the ability to disable and uninstall bloatware-Not too big to hold (a bit long though)-Solid battery performanceCONS-Odd positioning of a dedicated button for "Bixby" Samsung's assistant software.
I would recommend the international version of Samsung phones
Don’t buy refurbished and don’t pay more for us unlocked versions this international works just fine in the us.
Still works and since I had always thought S-Voice was an embarrassment of a virtual assistant, I have very low expectations for Bixby, which Samsung insists WILL be arriving soon before the end of this year
Here's to hoping Samsung scratches the Bixby button, embeds the finger print reader in the screen, and offers a pure Android version.

This one was taken without any special filter and yet it beautifully captures the layers of the fading colors - S8+ exceeds it’s low-light capabilities of it's predecessors!
The S8+ is noticeably better than the S7 and can handle anything you throw at it.
So outside of the Stylus, S8+ promises to be just as versatile in its use!
I am very satisfied with the new S8 cellphone and the ease in using same.
An amazing phone, most notably the excellent camera and gorgeous display/screen that has made more than a couple of my iPhone-having friends jealous 😏
Got it on time with 2 day air and with perfect delivery , currently using in mexico with no problems at all , fast phone beautiful camera awesome screen .
As frustrating as it is to have to buy all new cords (I have like a bazillion of the Micro USB charging cords all over
I think bumping up the front camera to 8MP was a smart move

Removal apps by third parties force disabling security features so that is not an option.
I bought a battery case for use with it, I have since replaced it with a clear, flexible case and glass screen protector to better appreciate the lighter, thinner features of the s8+ design
I perches the phone for my son and his is thrilled excellent choice Dad .. as he was telling m about all the great features of the phone !
Im in love with the camera,gr8 features,easy to use,I was coming from a BLU so this one is like a Ferrari to me!!
Leave Google alone, this is their core business competency and your incessant layering on of useless features (now coming with a dedicated button) is obscene.
Either the battery went bad or the charging circuit/battery calibration failed right after the warranty expired
As far as the actual performance of the device itself I am blown away, infinity display, blazing fast, excellent battery
Remember, these phones are only as good as their battery and ALL batteries fail after a certain amount of charge cycles

Overall the Galaxy S8 is an excellent smartphone that competes and often one ups other current flagship phones (Google Pixel, iPhone).
S8+ is a powerful smartphone i have ever seen except the screen
I mean this is hands down the best smartphone money can buy.

There is no question whether or not you will break your screen

I love this phone but can not recommend because of the poorly designed screen on this phone.
My wife's phone crack originated from the interface between the edge screen glass and the Bixby button, her screen is unresponsive in an isolated area around that crack.
I have been a big fan of Samsung over the years, but releasing a phone for close to $1000 with such a fragile screen is a really poor showing.
The front and back are Gorilla Glass 5 and while it is durable and scratch resistant, it is STILL vulnerable to breaking, even from short drops onto very hard surfaces, so do yourself a favor and buy a GOOD case to protect your investment
I added a 200GB Samsung brand SD card, and I put a Clayco protective case on the phone

But I think if you have good case and screen protector, this phone you will be using for years.
According to online discussion groups, it's a design flaw in the phone
This design flaw will ultimately drive me to a Google Pixel upon their next release (most likely Fall 2017).-Odd positioning of the fingerprint sensor.

Lots of the durability tests that I have seen on YouTube have exposed this design flaw as well.- The headphones that come with the phone aren't that great

Still they are taking the blanket stance that any screen cracks are user caused and voids the warranty, not taking into account all the real metrics showing the glass to be fragile and it's actually manufacturer defect.
The SquareTrade testing resulted in the worst performing glass they have ever tested

The phone works perfectly well in Colombia (GSM-LTE 4G), it gets the updates on time
There have been many metric tests that have shown the glass to be very vulnerable to cracking, not good for a all-glass phone.

It remains to be seen if it'll have the in-screen thumbprint reader as it was also rumored the GS8 would have as well, but they weren't able to perfect it in time, hence the awkward placement of the thumbprint reader on back, or maybe the tech isn't capable at this point to pull it off, I don't know
Hated the placement of fingerprint scanner and bloatware
Pros: fast, comfortable, great camera, awesome battery lifeCons: the placement of the Bixby button is awkward at times, a few bloatware apps, different USB type connector makes it a bit of a pain if you forget your charger

Color:Midnight Black
As the name suggests, the Samsung Galaxy S8+ is a larger version of the Galaxy S8, equipped with an even bigger, 6.2-inch Infinity display stretching from edge to edge
The screen is also taller, allowing the phone to remain somewhat manageable in the hand despite the extra-large screen area
To make room for the taller screen, however, Samsung has replaced the physical buttons with on-screen ones, while the fingerprint scanner has been moved to the back
In terms of software and hardware, the Galaxy S8+ is nearly identical to the S8, powered by the fast and efficient Snapdragon 835 SoC
But the additional space has allowed Samsung to fit in a bigger, 3500mAh battery
And the camera is similar to the 12MP unit found on the Galaxy S7, but improved software processing allows it to create better photos by stitching together the best portions of multiple frames.Unlocked, Clean ESN.*1/8 INCH LONG SCRATCHES SCATTERED ALL OVER SCREEN & REAR, SCUFFED SCREEN, REAR & CASING.*
