I think s8 might have same battery life as the s6. Which is not that good.

Very nice indeed but way too expensive, the Chinese will come out with competing handsets with similar specs for half the price. If you don't care about brand much than be patient sit it out and you'll get much more options pretty soon.

I'm still sticking to my S7 because I was disappointed the S8 don't have the flat screen version. But all in all, I bet S8 will triumph over every android phone in the market. Cheers.
