I love this phone. I started out with the first Samsung Galaxy for the beginning and all the way through to the 8. Each phone , has been getting faster and faster. More memory and better cameras. I recommend this phone to anyone who wants a phone that has all the same features as the regular phones, but you don't have to worry about dropping it in water or a window. It takes a licking and keeps on ticking.
I absolutely love my s8 active. I had the s5 active and had been waiting to upgrade. This phone is well worth it. I love the fact the battery last so long and alot of features this phone offers.
This phone's screen cracks just sitting in your pocket. It is the most fragile phone ever because of the curved screen. Do yourself a favor and skip this piece of junk.
I love the Active line of phones because I enjoy the Galaxy series, but dislike how fragle those phones have become. The S8 has an all-glass body that is an instant turn off for me since most cases either hide the phone color or adds a lot of bulk. I miss the physical buttons of previous Active phones, and the screen is capable of surface marks and scratches due to the coating they used to achieve the shatter-resistant display that the normal S8 doesn't have. I put a Zagg screen protector on mine and it works just fine - it is a trade off for the piece of mind for near shatterproof quality.
A great phone with an amazing battery (4000 mHZ) which is much larger than both the S8 and S8+. Naturally, its heavier than those models, but the flat display screen is more to my liking as opposed to the forced curved edges of the other models.
Highly recommended with the purchase of a screen protector.
I have this phone I love it more than any phone. I don't believe any phone is scratch free . However I always protect my phone with any kind of otter box. This phone charges fast and hold charge the phone takes great clear pictures and you can even watch direct data free and it's like watching your own clear tv. I made a great decision buying this phone lot of great features.
I was very excited to have a new phone. I absolutely loved it at first. Then after 6 days of use I noticed I had scratches on the screen from where my fingers scroll up and down. It was never dropped and when in my pocket nothing else was with it. I couldn't believe that Samsungs rugged phone would get scratched from normal use. It is a touch screen you are supposed to touch it but if you touch this one it will scratch. I am not the only person that has this problem either I checked online and there are a lot of people having this issue. A new phone shouldn't look likes its been used for years after 6 days. Samsung needs to recall this and fix it. On the same day my wife got a s8+ and she doesn't have this problem at all still looks new. I'd leave zero stars if I could. My old s5 active doesn't have any screen scratches after a little over 2 years of use.
There are always going to be a few miserable people who could literally win the lottery, and still be miserable, who think / feel this phone is garbage, but it's NOT! It's worth every penny, and it is by far, the BEST, Samsung Galaxy Active to date! Amazing, out of this world battery life, lighting fast speeds, clear as crystal calls and speakerphone, absolutely gorgeous, radiant colors, great sounds, 64GB instead of 32GB, waterproof up to 5 feet, professional grade / quality photo and video, new features, and in short, as good as it gets in an Android-based smartphone!
