    man all them fanboys in denial here. Say what you want, it still is god damn expensive.. $1k+ for a phone is a lot of cash no matter how you sugarcoat it. I bought my 2014 13" Macbook pro laptop for the same price man...

        AnonD-694466, 24 Aug 2017Note 7 design is still my favourite, along with the S7 Edge from Sammy S7 Edge is the worst Samsung from 2016. The flat screen S7 and S7 Active are much better.

        If Samsung phones had removable battery or if the non-removable battery weren't a deal breaker, I would buy the normal flat screen S7 with Snapdragon (or S7 Active if it were international). Snapdragon is better than Exynos not only in single core performance and GPU, but also it has FM Radio chip, which the Exynos doesn't have. But since S7 has non-removable battery, I'm forced to buy LG V20 and use it forever.

                      krystian, 24 Aug 2017Depends. Are you saying their chips are so good that they don't even have to optimize?No. But what is apparent is you have zero reading comprehension skills.
                      That or are just trolling. Up to you I guess.

                            Hmm, its ok. No much more than the S8. Very nice front and i mean no disrespect but that set up on the back like so many Samsung camera rears with logo looks blocky and unrefined. Some will find the size handy, however, i would think in the front pockets i think it will be too big of an square slab.

                                      Anonymous, 24 Aug 2017Their optimizing is heavily and severely exaggeratedWell I've never had problems with iphone 6 and 6s plus. It doesn't matter how many apps I open it is always smooth and continues where things left. Even android nougat has a tendency to kill apps after a certain time and on the samsung s8 too. There will be a point Google kills the app and all resources it can use. And since permissions/resources are freshly assigned there's no way to restore the app as it just looks like a fresh launch. I sometimes have a similar problem on win 10 mobile. Although MS is obviously killing the OS so they don't care.

                                        Does it also have a dual-tone flash?

                                        Plus I used a Mega 6.3 and it's the same screensize with larger bezels and 4g heavier than the note8 with a slightly smaller battery. The Mega wasn't unusually heavy for a phone its size. I got used to it over a short period of time.
