I love, no LOVE my Samsung 8+ unlocked Coral Blue phone!! The outer shell is sleek and gorgeous to the touch. I saw the price on 7/21/17 and IMMEDIATELY bought it from my local Best Buy store as this price for an UNLOCKED phone is cheaper than any sold under a contract provider like Sprint, Verizon and etc. It can take ANY SIM CARD as long as your phone's MEID # is compatible to their standards. The camera is flawless, processing speed is amazingly swift and the memory is more than plenty so a micro SD card is not really necessary. What I love most about my phone in particular is that I own a limited edition color, battery power lasts a long time, I control what I want to have on my phone as far as apps...I don't have to battle with undesired bloat wares by provider contracted phones!! The transfer of contacts, apps, pics and etc is a smooth process with the Samsung Smart Switch app! The Iris scanner works perfectly as it only recognizes my eyes to unlock the phone. I tested this feature with my husband by having him look into the phone and it declared NOT A MATCH as it is supposed to so Samsung has definitely upped its anti-theft game protection on this model. I love the options of using Bixby and/or Google assistant...they work seamlessly. I will say that the google location tracker creeped me out a little as it LITERALLY detects your EVERY MODE of TRANSIT, it will tell you how long you walked for, what area you are at to the nine, when you decided to jump on a train, cab etc all while logging the minutes you have lingered and taken to get from point a to z...heck I would be surprised to have read in the logs if the phone heard any gas passing situations....lol. I mean this phone is really something. Seriously, that google tracker is great for parents to keep tabs on their kids whereabouts, it is ACCURATE!!! I am a big fan of the Samsung Health app as it assists me in reaching my health goals by counting my steps, checking my pulse, heart beat and dietary needs....AWESOME tool! The video and music playback is great...picture and audio couldn't be better...I love the infinity screen and sound. There are some really cute built-in ring tones too. There are plenty other great perks this phone offers, so many I will be typing all day which I'm not willing to do...lol. My husband liked the phone so much he went and bought one the same day too!! I have raved to my friends to GET THE UNLOCKED 8+ version from Best Buy and am encouraging you all reading this to do the same before the sale is over.
My Best Buy number: 2813783415
Mobile Submission: False
I would recommend this to a friend!

Can this unlocked phone use Samsung Pay? I heard last year the Note 7 was not compatible with Samsung Pay if it was an unlocked phone (not sure if that was true or not). Additionally, are there any downsides to getting it unlocked?
Yes!! The unlocked phones comes with the Samsung Pay app already installed...and it does work. All you need to do is setup your credit card info and secure password/fingerprint to process the bill pay and you are good to go. And NO, there are absolutely no downsides to having the unlocked version of this phone. It's ACTUALLY quite LIBERATING to be able to shop freely between provider plans when package promotions occur to give you the CONSUMER the BEST BANG FOR YOUR BUCKS!! And the most amazing thing about the unlocked S8/S8+ is it self detects your SIM card provider automatically and self adjusts the phone to that network provider's settings until you decide to change provider's. Just ALWAYS BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR PHONE'S MEID # WITH THE SIM CARD PROVIDER'S COMPATIBILITY SECTION OF THEIR WEBSITE AND ALSO BE SURE TO PURCHASE THE CORRECT SIM CARD FOR THE NETWORK YOU DESIRE AS SOME WIRELESS COMPANIES RUN ON CDMA-which design their own 4G LTE operations and then there is the GSM- which under national guidelines by the Global System for Mobiles. Good luck!!

This add is bogus!!!! OH SURE IT GOT MY FULL ATTENTION!!! SAYING $400 DOLLARS OFF PURCHASE!? W.R.O.N.G!!!!!!!! THE ADD IS WRPNG. BECAUSE, IT PLAINLY SAY'S, $400 OFF PRICE. I ORDERED THE S8+ THEN WENT TO CHECK OUT & PAY! PRICE WAS $768 SERIOUSLY???????????
The savings was a total of $400.00!! They dropped $200.00 off the regular price of the S8 version and $200.00 off the regular price of the S8+ as well. And this deal ONLY APPLIED to the UNLOCKED PHONES of Samsung's S8 editions!! It sounds to me like you bought a PROVIDER VERSION by Verizon, Sprint, etc. through Best Buy under a contract which is TOTALLY DIFFERENT. Why not simply get the UNLOCKED VERSION of this phone that can take almost ANY PROVIDER's SIM card VS. SIGNING A BLOOD CONTRACT with a MEGA WIRELESS PROVIDER and their built in annoying BLOAT WARE APPS customized to their company phones...LOL. You really got yourself a cheap deal at a expensive price. (Sad Face Emoji)...lol.

Is this unlocked phone guaranteed to work on the Sprint network?
Yes it will....its unlocked....it can take any CDMA and/GSM phone provider. Just double check your phone's MEID # compatibility on Sprint's website to be extra sure. You don't need to download any Sprint software either...just pop in your SIM card and you are good to go. The Samsung S8+ will automatically detect the SIM card's wireless network and self adjust on it own. Enjoy!

What are the different between the same samsung galaxy s8 whose cost is $ 674.99 and samsung galaxy s8 whose cost is $ 574.99?
There is 4 inches of difference in size, the S8+ is larger and has a better infinity screen view, the ability to read emails, text messages and watch videos is larger and you get to see everything in its entirety!! It really depends on what your needs/wants are...both phones have the same software, memory and speed processors its just one is longer than the other.

Does this phone have DualSim capabilities like the international versions?
In order for you to use dual SIM cards you have to purchase the International version of this phone. However, if you just simply take out your U.S SIM card and put your international SIM card in its place it should work fine just be sure to check your phone MEID # compatibility with the SIM card provider's website before purchasing and also make sure your SIM card size can fit in the slot as well. Hope this tip has helped you out.
