exciting, but a bit disappointed samsung does not adopt 2 sim trays + dedicated microSD slot like their Galaxy A 2017 series.

Agreed. The Xperia Z5 got it right the first time - two slots for SIM and one slot for microSD. It means you don't have to decide between storage and a roaming SIM when you're travelling.

Unfortunately, the later Xperia models and the Samsung phones have been going for the hybrid SIM/microSD slot. Disappointing but ah well, still better than a single SIM tray.

Seriously I am more attracted to coming Note8. However will pre order the S8+ ( if offers are attractive) and sell it off with Note8 arrival. I do hope Samsung will have additional offers for ex Note7 users.

It is purely my hobby as a smartphone enthusiast. Well I am not the only one here. I even had the underrated n many said expensive Oppo Rs9 plus . I must say critics simply don't know what they are saying without even testing it out. With even a SD653 processor it performs equally well as say V20, Mate9 series, S7e, OP3T, HTC U Ultra. Just because it has a SD653 chip doesn't make it poor. Yes I do agree it is comparatively more expensive. Most amazing is it's very fast app installation which shame most SD820, SD821 phones. The phone s super ultra smooth too.
Many look down at SD650,652 chipset but I must say I had good time w them on MiMax, A9pro

One can always count on unbiased review from you.

Performance wise i think android has reached plateau.

Next step more to optimize battery performance.
6gb ram= bad battery
4k display= bad battery

To attract user to buy flagship
-water resistance
-dual camera setup
-Good camera capability
-infinity display


to be frank. I think spend good money on phone is very worthwhile. If you calculate the time you spend on it. Compared to ...other expensive hobby.

I started to like the idea of changing phone every year.

I imagine there will be discounts, but probably limited to x number of people (cue SME bashing on FB during pre-order)...

30% is a bit of a stretch though. I'm guessing 10% with some freebies.

I am not a smartphone enthusiast like unker benny i rather spend that money on my farm for the fertizier and when i buy i make sure its the best value in price, features and performance.

Not every situation we need to test something to define its value because the pricetag is there.

Its just not justifiable to pay SD625 and 650 on an oppo and vivo because I got the redmi note 3 and Note 4 both also runs very smoothly on a SD625 and 650.

So i need to pay 1.7k to 2k vs 499 and 799 see for me it dont make sense. Why should i pay more when 499 and 799 are good enough for me.

I am willing to come out 4k for Samsung S8+ or note 8 because all the features, design and hardware packed in because i can see the price = value

Something that depreciate yearly is not consider worth while.
