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

do we know if the wireless fast charging is going to work with the existing wireless fast charging pads for the s7 or are we being forced to get the new one ?
 
Price and fingerprint scanner.... lol that is all :D

No doubt Samsung will market the **** out of this like all the previous phones and have them sell like hot cakes though.

Thin bezels look nice but the corners/rounded edges just look off, same way LG G6's rounded corners are off but worse looking.
 
Must be very irritating to unlock when on a desk without picking it up. To use iris or face you'd have to crane your neck right over it.

Like the tiny bezels but don't think I'll be upgrading from S7E.
 
Infinity display now, not edge?
Home button "just where the old hardware button used to be" Except that I can feel where my hardware button is without the chance of hitting the wrong part of the screen. I wonder how certain websites will now work, one I can think of is the Bet365 site which on the cashout screen, the yellow cash out bar might be rather uncomfortably close to the home button.
Easier to hold in one hand....is that with or without a case to protect this rather expensive device?
fingerprint unlock on the back, great idea, not.
I already hate them for making me hand my gn7 back and now they offer no alternative, for me.
 
the only reason why I have a none issue with the fingerprint scanner on the back is because i've got a smart watch paired as a trusted device, so as long as i'm near the phone with the watch it'll remain unlocked.
 
Majority of people will be using their phone in their hand not on the desk. Rear placement makes more sense to me. Having it on the front would necessitate using 2 hands to unlock your phone which is daft
