Just finished reading Honor 8 Pro's review here in GSMArena. One thing to point out here for all the trolls out there. H8Pro has 4000mAh battery, but only stands at 77hrs in the battery test. What it means that, just putting a bigger battery is not the solution. It's the combination of all the things under the hood. If a phone is equipped with better machineries, then it can perform better.
Now, those of you are trolling about the smaller battery on a phone with bigger display, this should be an example for you to learn that if there is better processor and faster modules inside, even phones with smaller batteries can perform better.
And btw, just heard that iPhone 8 (or whatever they call it) won't be out this year for the following reasons:
1. Apple failed to make curved screens (Samsung is doing it for what, since Note edge, right? It's should be so old design by now for that half eaten fruit)
2. Apple failed to make the fingerprint scanner under the screen (Well, Synaptics already did that and it's coming to Note 8)
3. Half eaten can't bring back the headphone jack after saying "it's so old and obsolete design" and the fact that iD-iOts hated it, they can't do anything about it. Still the iD-iOts are trying to troll on others as they can't contain their jealousy.
Finally, half eaten is so threatened by S8 & S8+ that they knows if they don't go beyond S8 duos, they will fall on the ground. It'll be proved in front of everyone that it's not worth anymore. Samsung makes more than one design in a year and can take it if one fails. But one spec-iAl company makes only one design a year (two recently) and even after that if they fail, they'll be known as losers. I'm sorry, the correct spelling should be iLosers then.
I don't like to go on conflicts. I love to believe whatever you like is your own choice. But I had no other options but to say these as some iD-iOts started to cross the line over here. If you hate S8 so much, then why are you here in this S8 page? Why don't you go to your own page to love it? We want to hear constructive reviews here, not bashing S8. If there is a real problem, we are ready to hear constructive reviews. Nobody wants to hear bad things about something they love. So this will be my last hit to iPhone as long as you keep your voice down to constructive criticism. Everybody cheers now. Ciao…

For his i... moreSeriously how much does samsung pay you, Majority of those specs you listed are all gimmicks, Don't start criticizing iphone fans for being childish because to me you sound like one also. List one thing that is worth buying the galaxy s8 over the s7. Customization like what a pointless launcher which will just add more lag, The only launcher worth using is google now. I'd rather feel safe using iOS to pay for items rather than any Android device.

For his info,.it's already been solved by an update. But tell you what, I wouldn't buy a phone without headphone jack even if someone offers me 70000 more with it. That's something not solvable through a software update and no matter how much they say "It's a design of so old age" or "You wanted it, you just didn't know it" or maybe "It was X's dream, we just made that ture". ROFL. How iFan boys say stup-iD things. Well, they never know the power of WE, as they are so much into I. They only love to show off, nothing else. No customization, no doing everything, just being fast. Well, be that way. Cheers. Ciao...

                  Has all the essentials: great camera, fast processor, the BEST screen on the market, and microSD card slot. The only downside I will say would be the battery like. 3000 mAh for the S8 and 3500 mAh for the plus should of been increased. If the phone ended up being a little thicker because of it then so be it. Also, people saying the fingerprint scanner is in a bad place are ridiculous. Takes literally only a few minutes to adjust to the placement and it's seamless. This phone in my opinion is currently the best on the market.

                    Tried my hands on with S8 today. I did not have any problems with the finger print sensor as mentioned by some people. Within 5 minutes I was able to train my finger to touch the sensor without smudging the camera. That's one less a 'Disadvantage' for me.

                      This phone is reasonably priced. You are basically getting the best smartphone out right now with complete accessories in the box including an expensive AKG earbuds which costs 100 dollars for only 750 dollars. You can even get some more freebies depending on the retailer/region like a VR headset or wireless charging pad. Google Pixel also starts at the same price and it doesn't even come with a headset in the box.

I think the reason your phone is heating up is because of the aging device. As the phone got updates over time, and as the earlier files are never deleted (ROM = Read Only Memory, which have the first loaded OS, ICS 4.0.4 in your case), the memory have started to slow down. It's normal. Even the best phones will do the same. In present time, a phones lifespan is considered two years, where you have already went for almost five years with it.
                                  But have you checked the S8+ yourself? I know it has a bigger screen and all, but did you hold it in your hand? I did, and it didn't feel good to me (even when I used to have a Note 4 before). Specially, the reason that the fingerprint scanner on the back wasn't easily reachable, I switched to S8 instead. But hope you have made the right choice. My one hour time with the S8 & S8+ was way too good. After that one hour I even made a video of S8. I would give the link, but it is in my native language, so you wouldn't understand.
                                  Anyway, wish you all the best. Btw, when is your phone coming to you? I ordered it on April 15th and they told me that I'll get my phone after May 8th. Crossing my fingers on that. Take care. Ciao...

                                    Also one more thing. I always restarts my Galaxy S3 atleast once a day. But I feel very lag. Its happend only after 3 years. Before a week, I noticed that CPU of my phone gets heated after using internet(over wifi) for a few minutes. I don't why this happens? Do u hav any suggestions???

                                      You know something, S8 & S8+ are the ugliest phones around at present. No, they are the ugliest of all. Actually, the are the ugliest phones ever made. BUT THEY STILL GOT HEADPHONE JACKS.
                                      Take care buddy. Don't forget to pay a visit to an eye specialist on the way home. You can say that you didn't like the S8 & S8+, I can take that. But telling it ugly means either you are SUPER JEALOUS or you have some EYE PROBLEM. Whichever it is, please take medicine for. LOL.
                                      Be happy with your eyePhone, err, iPhone. Don't compare an apple with an orange (wink emo here) LOL. Cheers buddy. Take care. Chill. Ciao...
