i just purchased the active 8 and it sucks. the physical body is designed all wrong.
my active 6 took a beating and was still in great shape. it weighs more and the screen is marginally bigger.
I dropped this phone once and it has two cracks on the glass.
the sides are very slippery and the rubber grip is only on the corners. who grabs their phone on the corners and they also changed the charger so now I have to spend another 100 bucks to have the same charger in everyplace I go why????

            I have had this phone for 1 month. Loved it until 2 days ago. My boyfriend and daughter had been trying to call me but they texted me and said it went straight to voice mail. So when I tried to return their calls, each time I tried the call immediately dropped without even sending it. I restarted my phone. I was able to call my boyfriend, but then tried to call my daughter and it dropped immediately again. I restarted my phone and it let me call her. Well she forgot to tell me something during our conversation and tried to call me right back, but it went straight to VM again. She texted me this, I tried to call her, it dropped, I restarted my phone again. You see the picture. This has not stopped and my phone will not receive calls at all without a restart, but if they don't call me right after the restart, the same thing happens all over again. I am taking it to AT&T tomorrow but it doesn't sound good. Mentally preparing to have to send my phone back for warrenty, or at least swapping for a new phone (I hope)....but am now sceptical that this could happen again with a replacement galaxy S8 active. Otherwise....I love my phone. Hate that this is happening.

                Anonymous, 10 Sep 2017Got one, was looking forward to it, turned itself off after... moreThat sounds like the reason why it hasn't been released globally yet.

                            If Samsung releases a dual sim variant of this phone, it would be a great hit.......

                                      Definitely waiting for this one. If this phone gets international variant with Dual-SIM slots, that may very well be my next phone. Also, hopefully the international variant will launch with Android O or 7.1.1 Nougat at least. Also curious if the international variant will have Exynos 8895 or Snapdragon 835.

                                        Rox, 10 Sep 2017The Cat S60Nope, the cat s60 is horrendously overpriced, smaller battery, much worse screen, smaller size, terrible specs. It might be slightly more rugged, but it's giving up too much to the point of extortion
