I'm thinking of switching to s8+ from ip7+, care to share why you disappointed with s8? Thanks!
Let’s not discuss about Apple eco system and just compare phone to phone.
I had small lags which ends up to be the defining moment of me selling the phone.
I use Telegram a lot for messages and a normal message such as “what are you doing” can lag. I will press finish the message but the words don’t appear until a few seconds later.
There are some Apps such as Instagram and Uber where the keyboard will cover the text area. I can’t actually see what I type.
Other issues such as difficult to find screen protector also plays a part.
Lastly, the warranty is very troublesome. I bought my phone sealed and non activated at Kasia mobile. I thought I can just pop into Samsung store to buy their extended warranty. Their version of AppleCare. But I found out that it is not possible. Only phones purchased from like authorised dealers and with their receipt am I able to get the warranty.
For AppleCare, I bought my i7 recently on Carousell sealed and non activated. I can go to Apple website to check serial number before purchasing and then within 60 days, pop by Apple Store or online to get my AppleCare.
All these issues might be nothing but to me, it is defining since I paid a lot of money for a phone.
