I upgraded from a Samsung Galaxy S6 to the S8 plus. I am rather hard on phones, and the previous one had lasted more than two years. I stuck with what I knew. Living in a rural area, I had to go find wi-fi in order to transfer data, but it was worth it. I did not have to reload apps or contacts. You do need to check behind it. Also, keep up with your passwords because I had to re-login; however, I didn't have to re-download. This phone has a larger screen, and the curve is new to me. I would say that it is definitely an upgrade.
I went from a S4 to S8+ and love it big difference just a few features I had on old one I wished was still on new one, but I'll get use to it. It is so big also and the others. Doesn't fit in pocket very good.
I owned the Samsung s5. It was good but this version is even better. My favorite feature is the larger screen size and the pics are as good as my daughter's iPhone x and it also takes superior pics. There are so many little extras with this phone. It is amazing! I highly recommend this product!
Awesome. Phone is longer but when it comes to to width; I can text, scroll, navigate all with one hand no problem. Fits perfect. The battery life is insane. 25 hrs+. Great product.
