**** The Official Samsung Galaxy S8/S8+ Thread ****

Can anyone reccomend a phone case for the S8+ that is as sleek as possible?

I hate having any sort of case but i dropped mine yesterday and cracked the back top corner :(
I'd say Samsung official clear case. Can hardly tell it is on there! But...

Sleek as possible won't provide any protection from drops really...
 
Considering sending my S8+ back. Loving it, really great phone bar the stupid fingerprint sensor location, but my S7E has dried out after a couple of weeks so I'm wondering whether the £700 would be better in my hands than Amazon's.

I went back to the S7 Edge from the S8+ and don't regret it whatsoever.
 
There's a SanDisk Ultra 128GB UHS-1 microSD on Prime day deal for £28. Seems like a good buy?

Would I really care about UHS-3 speeds if I'm only going to put music and photos on it? The initial transfer might be slightly quicker, that's all.

More than adequate bud.
 
I think so, ordered one. The UHS-3 128GB is twice the price at £56.99.

I figure I can use internal for any stuff that needs "fast" storage since it bench-marked at 528mb/s read and 203mb/s write.
Exactly. I would only ever use sd card for storing data... Not run apps of it.
 
Received my S8+ today. Beautiful looking phone, and the screen.. wow. Hell of an upgrade from my S5.

I'm considering getting a quality case for it, any recommendations? I'd like something thats going to protect the front and back glass as much as possible without ruining the look of the phone too much.

Spigen neo hybrid. Lovely case.

I mostly want it to cover the cracked back piece rather than protection.

This drop was the first time ive dropped a phone in about 4 years. Dont play on doing it again :p

Ah a clear case probably isn't best then as you'll still see it lol

How about a Dbrand skin? Myself and others here have them and are very happy with the quality (Drband never fails to impress me with their great fit and quality!)
 
It is true with my devices ,maybe they stagger the releases ,but certainly in my case XEU has always been faster ,hence changing my S8 from BTU to EXU

well you're devices are an exception (and impossibility) as everybody elses' xeu and btu devices followed this structure :)
 
You can now apply AOSP stock Android system UI and Settings theme via Substratum without root. Just choose the "Samsung S8 AOSP" variant and you're good to go.

Finally, a stock Android theme solution without root, navbar buttons go AOSP too :cool:
