Solid Phone, Durable, Long batt life, the best

I bought this phone 5 months ago and it continues to work reliably with no issues at all. The phone never gets hot, display is smooth and fast running as well as sharing the Internet to my house and all PC/laptop devices. This is the best and fastest phone I have ever had.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Used to be great

S8 Active used to be great. Now, the phone does constant updates, changes all types of settings, and doesnt send messages properly. Hate to say it, but I may be going to iPhone,
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Heavy, vulnerable screen, slippery

Great technology. Long battery life. Very heavy. Screen protector mandatory or scratching will be instantaneous. Slips off slightly inclined surfaces, or flat surfaces if the charger cord has significant weight, and hits the floor readily.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Excellent, solid phone for active lifestyle
on June 15, 2019

I've had the s8 active for a year and it's genuinely the best phone I've ever had. Because of my work and my hobbies, I need a phone that can handle quite a bit. I work as a paramedic and I've given my phone a good beating while working and it doesn't have a scratch on it. I also love some of the extra features (face recognition, built in pulse ox., sos calling). I would highly recommend this phone to anyone!

Samsung S8 Active

This phone is junk! I wish I could go back to the day I made the mistake of buying this piece of garbage. The keyboard constantly stops working and it's always one thing after another and the samsung folks act like they don't have a clue to what their doing half the time. Needless to say, this will be the last Samsung phone or electronic device I ever purchase again. Lesson learned.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Holds up to a working veteran

I bought by this phone with the hopes it could keep up with work demands and rugged play at home. It has far exceeded my expectations and continued to perform. Just shy of 2 years in constant use, only now is it showing wear. I'm not sure where the other low star reviewers got their phones, but it seems there may have been a batch of lemons. The scratch resistant screen has retained Knicks and is not as clear, but continues to function without fail. It has been in rain, water, oil and sand with no issues. Really scared by the oil. It has been dropped multiple times. Face flat, corners, back and every other angle without cracks or major damage. I actually first found this phone on my local base and had the civilian store near me order it. I am very pleased with its use.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Excellent Quality & Performance

I bought this phone in the fall of 2017, it is now mid 2019 and it has done a superb job for me. It is very rugged, the battery life lasts as advertised, and nothing has slowed down the performance as it's capabilities can handle anything that has come out since its availablility. I am now an Active avid fan and will continue to purchase / use one when / if they continue providing one in the future.
I would recommend this to a friend!
