i had a few Samsung phones but after the s8 i will never buy another one, Samsung needs to realise that everyone has a phone for a different purpose and mine is business, this phone doesn't even belong in the business arena, everytime you do an update that is forced upon you the phone is stuffed, things like a double lock screen and having to swipe it like 50 times to back out of a simple call or sms because of all the crap notifications that pop up and whole lot more that i cant remember, but now the latest no sms notification tone and appears nothing can be done about it, bit hard when you run a business and your heads down tail up trying to get work done and rely on notification tones from customers or even family in an emergency not to mention i have spent hours in total that i don't have to try fix every time its updated, what a pile of rubbish just like the I phone, its my phone i want control over it not Samsung and its not like they are cheap, nah im going the new nokia, give that a try as samsungs phones no longer suit my needs.

Here's a sample of a user's issue:
S8 camera focus issue
My wife and I both received our S8s yesterday.
Her phone has an issue with the rear facing camera.
The focus seems to be stuck at about 30cm.
Anything further away is just a blur.
What to do?
We've tried the clear cache and memory solution that seemed to be a fix for a similar S7 camera issue, and it's not resolved the problem.

Dominique, 23 Aug 2018Camera is always experiencing "blurring" problem.Absolute rubbish comment. The phone is flawless and the camera first class. If you have a problem go to your dealer. It may be that you have a copy phone and not a genuine s8.

My S8 is not even 1 year old and ALL SENSORS GOT BROKEN !!! no GPS, no light sensor, no proximity sensor...
I read lots of reports of users on forums wiht same problem on S8, S8 Plus, Note 8, so is not a isolated case.
This is really embarrassing for a company like Samsung and a phone from S line.
It seems that Samsung quality actually does not exist. remember episode with Note 7.
I WILL NOT BUY A SAMSUNG PHONE AGAIN! neither me or my family and I will tell to all friends how bad Samsung phone are from the point of view of reliability over time.
