drake parker, 05 Nov 2018Should I go for s8 or OP6? I'm kinda leaving towards the l... moreI actually have both. I will go hands down OP6 or OP6T if possible. The only difference is the expanded storage on the OP6T, so if you need to expand the storate go OP6.

Why OP6.
1. Cleaner andriod install, S8 has Samsung bloat ware and most of it you can't get rid of.
2. Battery Life, the battery is bigger on both and since there is no bloatware you will find that the OP6 last longer. I find myself recharging the S8 around 3 pm daily.
3. The screen is slightly bigger on the OP6, if you are like me and consume media on the phone (movies, TV, youtube, Netflix), having the OP6 is better. After I got the OP6 I got rid of my tablet while I travel.
4. Price, even when the S8 is currently slightly cheaper, you get a lot more with OP6T right now. Hey if you need to save some money the OP6 is the same price as an S8.

Cons
1. I find it hard to find covers and protectors for the OP6, but you can always order online.
2. The speaker is slightly quitter on the OP6. I just say that because it is, not to the point that it will create a problem, but it is. I normally use Bluetooth devices so it is the same for me.
3. Samsung pay, this will work with a LOT of terminals and with the OP6 only NFC terminals will work. The difference is NOT that much, and depending on where you shop it can create a problem. You can always work around this by pairing your OP6 with a Samsung Gear3.


So unless you need more than 128gb storage I will go with the OP6.

    Should I go for s8 or OP6?
    I'm kinda leaving towards the latter due to its almost stock android UI.

But none lasted more than a week. So ditched the tought I needed one and I just use a spigen case ( Spigen Rugged Armor Extra Samsung Galaxy S8 Back Cover) without any protection on the glass. Zero scratches for the moment, just make sure it is always the only thing in that pocket or you are looking for trouble (and scratches).

                  Hello friends, I'm using Samsung Galaxy S8 and really enjoying. The only problem I'm facing is that each time I buy a screen guard for it, touch pad stops working smoothly. The key pad starts freezing. I purchased and repurchased, the same thing keeps on repeating itself.
                  Is it that S8 is not compatible with any guard?
                  And finally, I enjoy the smartness of the buttons when I remove the screen guard.
                  Question......
                  If I continue using the phone without a screen guard, will the screen fade, considering the fact that it's Corning Gorilla 5 screen.
                  Pls advice me

I ... moreIn my opinion if you're not interested in a camera and speed that much... you'll prefer the a8 . The battery life is better on a normal day then now the s8 is refurbished meaning the battery has already been worn out small.. but if you don't mind that... the s8 has a better screen camera and soc.. if you buy either and take care of it well they'll both reach that 2-3years

If you're getting a used S8, simply go for it it's far better than the A series for sure.

                                  Which one would be better to use for 2-3 years from now?

This is just to help you isolate the issue if it is caused by any 3rd part apps as they sometimes make your phone go weird. If this doesn't work then take it to the nearest service center.
