I regret wasting my hard earned money on buying the XZ1, I could've saved it & got the S8/S9 much earlier but better late than never. So far I'm happy with my S8 after the Sony fiasco :-)

I've always favoured good/above average camera quality and I agree with you based on my own experience and the countless videos I've seen Sony never learn from complaints and critcisms of their phones. From poor low light, to lots of noise to zooming-in to slow shutter speeds you name it. I'm hope I'll be happy with an S8+ coz I just bought one on ebay. And as Samsung is currently doing a trade-in for their phones I may end up getting an S9 Plus either in these coming days or at least next few weeks. I appreciate all the help I get from here I do hope the Samsung community continue to be bigger and the developers to continue to give us a much more refined, useful, productivity-based, performance-driven, non battery hugging UX for us to truly enjoy.

That's why I was really upset with the Sony XZ, XZ1 as they had really bad camera (specially in lowlight). I also have a 2015 J7 which is my secondary phone & is still in running condition. If you wanna buy the S8/S8+ go ahead as they're available at great prices right now.

        BTW, I've cancelled my order for the V30 and awaiting a refund. In the next 24 hours I will be purchasing my very first Samsung device since the S5 Neo a few years ago.

        Thoughts?

Sony won't ever learn from their mistakes in the camera department no OIS, pathetic image processing, blurred low lights pics with lack of details to name a few and the same goes with their latest XZ2 which is also pathetic in terms of camera quality. I mean you pay such an hefty amount and get disappointed in the end. The S8 has a great camera and till date I haven't even used the flash light while taking any low light shots cause it captures tons of details and pics are really crisp and clear. V30 is much better than any Sony phone hope the minor issues you're talking about the camera & video quality of the V30 will get resolved by an update. Enjoy your new phone.

                Don't worry about updates. Samsung & LG already have more features than those in stock Android. That's why major updates are insignificant for these devices. The Oreo update brought nothing new to the S8 tbh

                  Star-Lord.be, 20 Oct 2018More tech and less money is always the best deal. Enjoy your v30But i'm still concerned about slow updates though. And the 5MP selfie camera seems worse than my Moto X4 or my Xperia XZ in terms of overall quality. And the slow-mo video looks like 480p quality which is just really poor.

I have the normal s8 and used the v30 from a friend for a week and I got about double screen on time, the only reason I wouldn't buy any lg phone is the poor after sale support, zero security updates and major updates take forever to arrive. If lg would fix that service-problem they would get more fanboys. My personal opinion is that al the major brands are overrated and you pay for the brand and not the quality. Look at nokia, solid phones with good quality and support but the name is no longer a fashion statement so people don't want to buy them.

                          The v30 is as good as an s8. Congrats

I bought a brand-new LG V30 for only £450. I got frustrated waiting and looking for a good S8/S8+ deals online (mainly ebay) but it just fizzled out.
                              Thoughts about the V30 vs the S8+? DO you think it was a good choice? Need your comments please.

I was a Sony fan until the XZ1 let me down with its camera, after that I decided to go for the S8 when S9 was already available and no regrets at all, I saved some money and got a phone which was almost the same as the S9 but at a low price, updated it to October security patch and got AR emoji and super slow motion feature in the camera department. Camera on the S8 beats the crap out of the iphone X and any Sony phone till date. So the bottom line is if you can afford to buy the S9 go for it as it's new but is almost the same as the S8 except the f1.5 on the camera, else everything is great on the S8 and the price which is selling right now makes it the best choice.

                                    I'm buying a new phone to replace my old XZ. My main concerns with a phone camera are:
                                    1. poor low light performance (front & rear cameras)
                                    2. dreaded purple or orange tinge in low light or extreme sunny conditions
                                    3. over and underexposure
                                    4. unresolved details especially around the corners
                                    5. lots of noise when zooming in (under any conditions)
                                    6. No OIS or (the very least) EIS in both the front & rear camera. (I'm doing more 1080p videos @ either 30 or 60fps than 4K)
                                    7. Audio recording sounds as if the people talking have a blocked nose (mono).
                                    8. Unnatural bland or over-contrasty colours (in Auto Mode)
                                    9. Poorly optimised portrait shots (background blur looks artificial)
                                    So, Does this sounds the S8 can easily handle? Or go for the newer S9?
                                    Battery life are not concerning as I can do those battery-saving tips I've learned these past years; performance may be a bit out there as I want something as fast if not faster than an iPhone X.

I went to some islands in Thailand and took tons of pics day and night & was completely blown away by its camera performance also the battery life is great just one charge a day and you're good to go. Wow what a phone!!!
