Not waterproof, not water resistant, not so smart
on September 10, 2018

Took my mom to the beach for her very first time ever this summer.. stayed 5 days.. couldn't use my phone/camera past the evening of day 2..wtf...because IT WAS IN A BAG OF RICE..the stupid thing thought it was wet.. kept saying, moisture detected in the charging port... AND WOULD NOT CHARGE... I take a lot of pictures because I have kids and this was something that my mom had never done and dreamed of doing all her life and is on her bucket list so pictures are memories but when your phone is not working you can't take those pictures... or have contact with the people back home waiting for our call
.or emergencies...
.or emergencies...
Yes we was at beach but at NO TIME was my phone in the water .. the closest thing to coming into contact with any water was possibly my barley damp hands, which before i even would touch the zip lock bag that my phone was in i was triple sure to dry off real good....
1.) I was being very careful with it because I wasn't for sure if it was waterproof or resistant or not..........AND
2.) I didn't want my phone to mess up on me on this trip because I was hoping to capture some amazing memories to take home for all to see and to treasure ...
so I was being super cautious and protective. I'm always super cautious , and protective anyways ,because that thing is super expensive....

Apparently its not so smart. It only thought it was wet because I know it was not. It spent three days in a bag of rice and everyday I would take it out and blow dry it on cool settings, a total of 3 - 4 hours I took away from my family by trying to get my phone to working for our special trip full of uncaptured moments..

It is just okay

I love this phone overall, but the moisture protection is a joke. It is almost enough to make me trade in the phone. Even if the phone is in my pocket, sometimes the phone will register moisture in the charging port and not let me plug it in. I am far to active and need my phone far too much for work to wait hours to be able to charge it up. Other than that it is a good phone...but that is a major detractor for me.

I absolutely LOVE it!!!

When purchasing this phone, my buying point was that my new device needed to be sturdy and able to endure falling, ect.. Seeing as how my 4 yr old obliterated my S7 on 2 drops. This pics...this phone is durable, sleek, and seems almost indestructable. Everyone that sees it loves it.... I'm glad I found the S8 Active!!!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Had a Galaxy 6 Active. Both very similar, but the Galaxy 8 Active is more responsive. Of course the battery was going bad on the G6. Really love the phone.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Samsung Galaxy Active S6 upgrade to S8
on July 12, 2018
Posted by: Jonathan Duran
I really enjoy the Galaxy Active S8. I would like to see the Active phones have a spot for additional micro usb chips to augment the memory and have removable memory. The larger screen is much better. I would also like a slightly more textured back for gripping.
I would recommend this to a friend!
