Utterly pointless given Google assistant / now work so well. Why do Samsung bother trying to reinvent the wheel when the existing wheel works great... Unless it's for tizen.

Well goodbye screen protectors
Never used one.
I really dont see the point of 4k on mobile
(dont get me wrong in conjunction iwth VR it makes sense, but you will still be paying for the screen abilities on the phone itself and this is going to cost a fortune)
moving from iP6 to G7E and just not convinced anything better is worth while just yet
(if I go VR it will be PSVR or even less likely PC based)
(I also think all these digital assistants are a fad and wont last long for majority of users) - in theory this will help with daily life, just like a lot of things in the past just not convinced it will last long apart from very specific places /incidences.

If this is true i'm out. I don't want anything bigger than my S6 I already struggle to use it with 1 hand

I really hope it has a 4K display, as the VR experience will be so much better.
Rumour has it the S8 will not have a flat version but rather two curved edge versions, possibly 2K and a larger 5.5 inch 4K.

Not affected, bluetooth 
2560x1440 isn't 2K...

I really am struggling to see the issue and attachment to headphone jacks. The lack of jack means it can have a better water resistance rating, and you can use wireless earphones anyway or use an adapter for the USB C or micro USB port. It's really a big non issue.
Do you have little lady hands? As the other guy says, higher screen to body ratios mean that displays can get quite a bit bigger without the overall size increasing.

I'll next grab a OnePlus3T if the headphone jack rumours are true.
Some of us spend good money on headphones.
So use an adapter, or dedicated music players with a DAC that's better than a phone?
Also some Bluetooth earphones cost "good money", but cost doesn't indicate quality.
I shouldn't have to go back to a dedicated player when theirs a standard universal connection that still offers better quality than any wireless solution.
Also, this on the back of the Last Note reveal where they joked at Apple for removing it.
