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

Because you can swap after 12 months to another handset? So you end up paying what I said for the S8 and then the same again for another handset?

You still have to pay them a sum after 12 months to swap the phone. It's far from cheap.

If you add their higher data contract onto that too you've still got another £20 a month on top of that.
 
No idea. But I'd rather we had the SD835.
Funny as there were plenty of americans complaining they got the the Snapdragon instead of the exynos when the S6 came out (due to it being a better chip!). Guess some people are just never happy even if what you have is actually better than the alternative!
 
What have people found as SIM-free options? Would rather not go with CPW or Samsung direct as their customer service isn't great if it needs a return.

Any other good options around yet?
 
I'm still on a Note 4 and due an upgrade. My original plan was to change over to an iPhone 7 plus, however this S8 plus is intriguing me. My only concern is with the battery life really so I'll have to keep an eye out for some reviews.

Luckily for me I am going to be working for EE from the middle of next month so I can get 75% off my phone contract :)

Is that a savage loyal customer deal? I just don't get how some people manage to get such good deals.

I said I wanted to leave and he offered me that, I already have 20% discount on my account, I wanted cheaper even it had meant less data, but he couldn't... even if you think that is good - 46 is still a high number... and then the note 8 will come out with its under screen fps, 1000fps camera and I'll be paying silly amounts for my older phone

Is the £46 including your discount or before?
 
anyone ever had luck with getting better deals from Three network if you threaten to leave?

Looking for an S8+ deal with 10-gb+ data.

£99 down and £50 per month at Three for 12gb. total is £1299 over 24 months.

Can buy phone outright and get 12gb sim only for £1139 total but have to then shell out £800 in one go.

I don't really want to leave them, been with them 4 years and had no real issues, a couple of minor issues that haven't really effected me but i have been credited well.

I also like the use abroad perk.

I just tried EE and got offered an S8+ 24 months @ 65..... I've been an EE / Orange customer for 10 years so laughed my way outside.

phone up retentions, ask for pac code, they will offer you a crap deal, ask for pac code again, they will give you it - 2 days later will call you back with a better deal.
 
I tried with vodafone retentions (even though my contract isnt up till april)

basically offered me 8+ , 30gig, free everything else. £52...

considering my previous threat to leave got me free note 4, 20gig for £30....

Not the best really is it? I mean what they've offered is essentially knocking the £50 price off (new customers via cashback more than cover that) and £6p/m off the contract cost. That's just not a great deal at all.
