WiFi connectivity is just great no heating issues and doesn't lag. Stay with S8 in fact about the only other phone i will consider is the S10 but don't see the need to change. Go for it

    Ok. A tad extensive, but here goes:
    - Really great phone and a massive upgrade from the S7 Active, I had before!
    In terms of IPX-rating, they are the same, but battery life is MUCH better on S8 than S7 - probably down to S8 running Android 9 (which improved my old Xcover 4's battery life markable!).
    The bigger screen is in no way needed but works really nicely - and as the frame is smaller, phones are similar in dimensions.
    It's annoying with the curved screen (finding protective film is hard and the curve makes the screen easy to crack - panzer glass is, however available), but buying an armored case solves a lot - not least the queerly placed fingerprint reader.

    I would any day replace my S8 with an upgraded Xcover (preferably with Xcover 3 frame) if they focussed upgrades on the camera; the S8 is brilliant, but Xcover-phones features changeable batteries, properly good built frames, and sizes that will actually fit in your pocket.

    But S8? Better sound quality, better build quality, better WiFi connectivity, and, frankly, a better experience than the S7.
    I doubt the difference between S8 and S9 is as great as the S8 to S7...

    Don't buy the newest - you'll be fine with S8!

              S8 is getting security update file size over 400 mb . My note 10 is getting normally 200 mb approximately. For s8 this much size is not normal i think.

                                My s8 can't make calls again. But other functions are still working well. It only writes "call ended ". I don't know what to do with it again.
