Hi to all at gsmarena. I suggest to update the Samsung S8+ information since its upgradable to Android 9.0 PIE and 1.0 UI, just like the S9 models Note 8 and Note 9 models too. Phone is still great and I like the Android 9.0 PIE on it. I don't like very much the recently used apps look on Android 9.0 Even on my Huawei Mate 10 PRO, looks a bit similar to Apple devices and multi window option it's a bit of struggle on my S8+ . I liked the card stack look better.

the S8 Plus was a great phone back in 2017, I STILL love it now. offers great value, especially at the price you can pick it up for right now.

if i may set a conclusion here for all the people with average budget to get a decent flagship from 2017 in 2019 go for the s8/s8+ as it really feels amazing with android pie , price now is around 350 to 450 USD and it will serve you somehow the same like a S9 or even the Note 9 in some ways.
I'm sure there is a lot of brands which offers better specs with cheaper price Tag so it is up to the user what he/she wants and it is up to the person to dream to have a S10 specs on a 100 USD smartphone.
Have a great day ahead to all the readers.

Rajawali, 07 Mar 2019Do your S8+'s camera get scene optimizer after update to pie?No scene optimizer in camera.
But One Ui is much faster than previous versions & has good battery life. I like it a lot.

Rajawali, 07 Mar 2019Do your S8+'s camera get scene optimizer after update to pie?Yeah, I think the S8's are fantastic too. I didn't intend to hold onto the phone for so long (bought at launch) very impressed. I might consider buying the one of the s10's myself later on in the year.
Really good to get your feedback on the new update, havent downloaded it yet myself. Appreciated :) Your post was full of positivity which is always good to see.

After the update the phone is superb, I own the note 9 as well and both phones are similar now respectively the H/W difference, update your phones and you will be satisfied for sure. I'm waiting to test the s10 physically in a store once available to convince myself if I should upgrade my beloved s8+ to a s10

Rajawali, 07 Mar 2019No My last security patch before update was Januari tooOk, like you I have read on many sites that the new update is 1.6gb.
I have seen a few people (including on the s8 forum on gsmarena) posting that they have recently received the February Security Patch in the last few days, but do not yet have One UI PIE. When I saw that the One UI PIE update I received which includes the February Security Patch weighed in at 1.6gb, I thought that was a possible explanation.

Rajawali, 07 Mar 2019Do You get scene optimizer on your camera?Sorry Rajawali, I don't know as I have not installed it yet, going to delay installing for a bit. It is just over 1.6 gb in size compared to your 1.2gb download though.
As regards to the difference in size of the DL. I am still on the 1st January patch, you may of already received the February patch before you installed the new update and that might explain the difference in size of the download compared to mine.
Sorry I was unable to help you at the moment regarding the camera.
