Jackyboi, 02 Sep 2019I don't know why my S8 battery drain quite fast I've had my S8 since launch, my battery life is a little better since updating to Pie, but not by a massive amount.
Like mine, your battery has probably lost some capacity (Accubattery reports 2250mAh) as most batteries lose a fair bit after a year and should ideally be replaced around 2yr mark.

I'm going to replace my battery, but I don't have huge expectations as the S8 has never had the greatest life. Maybe try a complete factory reset as well?

I'll probably end up buying a new phone before the end of the year anyway, cos it barely lasts a day at work with a medium amounts of phone calls and barely any browser usage.

                  Nanhu Maurya, 26 Aug 2019India If you can afford to get it fixed, then go for it. If not, just get a Redmi k20 or something, I’m pretty sure they cost about as much as the repair costs.

                        No one realizes that The Snapdragon Samsung s8 version can only play Fortnite on Medium setting while the other Snapdragon 835 can play It on High setting
                        And Some guy said that Exynos can now play PUBG on HDR Ultra and Smooth Extreme after updating to One UI , is that true?

So it is gsmarena that are on the ball and the other sites are out of date. The capacity of SD cards has increased since the S8 was first launched so it's simply a case of the other sites are behind the times and have not updated accordingly.

I know that you are not saying that but I feel it's only fair to point this out :)

                                Technology can develop faults and if the fault occurs outside of the warranty period then unfortunately it's not covered and you are going to have to pay to get if fixed. The same rule applies whether you are buying a supercar or a mobile phone. ... things can go wrong. Sadly, hardly anything in life unfortunately is fail proof.

                                So what phone will you go for now and why? What phone will you buy that you can fully rely upon and that you can be confident that it will not fail within the timescale that your phone failed?

                                      I've bought this mobile in 30th Oct 2017, costed me up to Rs.54000/- since then it was all working good but few days back 19 Aug 2019 it had sudden heating problem(Kindly Note: It was in no use & had 80% battery left), which turns my mobile off & unresponsive. When i bring it to service center there i got to know that 'Motherboard' has got damaged due to excess heating. Now the required repair will cost me up to Rs.20000/- because its been over warranty period.The mobile couldn't even able to complete 2 years(2 months before gone dead)..which indicates poor quality & cheap product wrapped in high value. So it's my only & genuine request to you all people out there willing to buy these high end products,have think first before investing your hard earned money in third class quality product or would have to be regret later like me.
