Yesterday I bought the Galaxy S8, how horrible was the choice I've made?

>buying latest phones
idiot. there's barely anything an s8 can do an s7 can't, the biggest difference is the former costs a third more

The SE has the hardware of the iPhone 6 in a phone the size of the 5. For the feel it will take time to get used to that size again. It's not the length of it which feels odd, it's the width.

That's how I felt when I went from the iPhone 5 to the iPhone 7
The top right of the phone is unusable one handed

I'm not a huge fan of the custom os that Samsung uses but they're good phones.

I dunno man, they really got their shit together with TouchWiz on the S7. It's just as good as stock Android imo

I have an s5, but when I dropped Apple I couldn't have been happier

True Turquoise · May 24, 2017, 10:27:25 PM

Seem alright, but too new to just get

Zonda · May 24, 2017, 10:29:04 PM

If you straight up purchased it from a shop you're a complete retard tbh.

Upgrading on a plan is perfectly acceptable.

The main reason why I dropped them is due to iTunes. I wasn't a fan of having to use it for every action when I hooked my phone up to my PC. The S8 as you know it acts just like a flash drive when you hook it up so you can have your way with it. The other minor thing which really annoyed me is that I can't have a custom ringtone unless I bought the song through iTunes.
