Ill pass.

Inferior screen, design, no headphone jack, waterproofness not the same as s8.

Beautiful is subjective. For me the design is a bit old school. Iphone like design. Huhu.

I wouldn't exactly call it beautiful, but logically it represents better value at 3,099 with 6GB RAM and 128GB storage. That said, if you are one of those who bought the S8 at 2,7xx, then the S8 is a better buy

Two things that holds me back from buying HTC: -

1. After-sales service sucks (from my personal experience).
2. Difficult to find 3rd party accessories.

If main target battery life just go for mate 9 because s8 is not about battery life but more about revolution of tech.

In 2017 with a mate 9 you get an older tech of curve edge
No iris scanner
No ip68 rating
No Samsung experience
No big screen 6.2 inch
No apps edge
U get sunny optical with Leica branding without real leica performance
No aod

Guys, Any recommendation on the SP for case like UAG or Spigen ? i had try Imak brand but it seem that the SP lift up on 4 corner once i install my cover...wasted 2 SP....

Beautiful on the inside & also outside for me.

Since you thinking of Mate 9. You shall consider S8+ instead of S8 because S8 is very small even though it is size of 5.8" as the screen is long.

Battery life in S8+ is great for me.

Not really if u say spec u can get one plus 3t for just merely 2k. Why pay till 3k.


Yes I remember the hassle I need go to hello station to exchange one old HTC because phone lag so much and m8 wanna change the casing dot matrix accessories all official store no more

For a flat screen and shiny back and thick bezel nah not worth 3k

I have Mate 9 & S7 edge. Mate 9 battery life is way better than S7 edge. Slightly below IP7 plus.

lol...why flat screen can't worth that..

very interesting phone..on my list...

Depends on your taste & preference. Dont follow others. Like me I prefer flat screen.

Great choice.

if u need the extra juice, go for mate 9 and you wont be wrong.

+1 yea it does look like last year phone. As of now s8+ still look alot better

Actually flat or curve I am accept but if not near edge to edge display phone is not for me start from this year.

nobody likes Andy Rubin's new phone?

Looks good to me. Flat screen & finger print scanner similar spot like Mate 9

This is nice. I create the thread because i am interesting.

Mate 9 is a good phone no doubt about that, very smooth, camera quite good (but low light is disappointing), very very good battery life.

I switch to s8+ only due to 2 factors - ip68 and edge to edge display. Others in the list above are just own preference, some fancy those, some won't.
