Anyone getting the s8?
I've preordered the S8 for my wife and S8+ for myself on Verizon. Trading in our S7 edges.
I'm torn between the s8 and s8+. That s8+ looks gigantic compared to the s7edge.
It is much taller than most phones out there but not much wider than my galaxy s5. It feels really comfortable in hand. I'm getting it for the bigger battery for the most part.
Do you have an s8+ to compare it to?
I went with the normal s8. A little smaller footprint than my s7edge, and yeah I'm giving up battery which I might regret. I just have so many touches on the sides of my s7edge I only imagine more on the s8+. I have heard reviews that is seems less sharp and a bit thicker on the sides, so I'm hoping it fits in my hand just slightly differently.
I've gone and handled the s8+ a couple times and I liked the size. It felt fine.
One thing to think about is that by default the resolution of the phone is 1080p, so close up that might look a little less sharp. If you really cared about it, you could bump the resolution to the full 1444p and it would look better. I'm sure the difference is hardly noticeable in practice.
I'd imagine it looks just fine, even in the larger size its still over 500ppi.
