Received the Brittish international edition of the phone.
It won’t be available till May 31st in the Us. We’ve had it almost 3 weeks and it works perfectly. Supposedly the seal was only broken to remove the region lock. Very easy under date and time to just set the local to US English. Also hold down the weather widget to change from celcius to farenheight. Very insignificant slight differences from us version. To get a manufaturers warranty honored would probably have to ship it to England. So far I’ve never had to use a warranty on any Samsung products and hopefully it will stay that way. Just happy that I don’t have to worry about availability for the phone at the end of this month because my wife already had the phone and loves it so far.

Samsung should really make the Exynos version of this phone and future phones standard across their entire lineup and their main reason being, battery life. I had my doubts upgrading from a regular Exynos Galaxy S7 because the battery life was actually quite good. I was getting about 5 hours of screen on time with that phone and I was getting about 2.5 to 3 hours of SOT from a Snapdragon S7 that I has previously.
This Galaxy S8 has a larger display and the battery is the same size as the S7’s, yet I’ve been getting some incredible SOT numbers. On multiple occasions, I’ve gotten anywhere from 6-7 hours of SOT with 20 hours of total usage! I’m convinced that it’s because of this Exynos processor because other reviewers who have the Snapdragon version all say the same thing, the battery life sucks. They report anywhere from 3-4 hours of SOT.
Other than the incredible battery life, the display on this phone is spectacular, the camera is great, feels amazing in the hand, fits about anywhere AND it has an SD card slot!
I wish I had waited a few weeks because I purchased it when it was over $700 and now it’s around $660, but that’s what I get for being impatient.

Unfortunately I do not give a good recommendation from the seller, the equipment has a good price and are official and original Samsung equipment but made in China. The problem is that the seller does not test the equipment before selling them mine has a problem on the screen that was presented the next day that I get the screen has lines as interference I contacted Samsung and they gave me a recommendation to see if corregi the error but this was not solved. Therefore, they told me that it is a factory damage and the equipment has no guarantee. This has presented me with many problems and it bothers me to have spent so much hopeful money of good quality as all the Samsung equipment I have had. So I do not recommend the seller.

Finally one that is as-advertised! This was my 3rd attempt at getting the Exynos model – the other 2 had been models U and U1 even though they were being advertised as the “International” version. This one is a true model F from Italy though and allowed me to set it up exactly how I wanted. Thanks!

Excellent phone… one of the best phones I ever had.
The best of all is the camera resolution, and also it’s easy functioning…..

Fast phone, screen is gorgeous. New touchwiz (aka Samsung Experience) is very lightweight and very useful. GPS lock is incredible fast even only with satellites
Battery life is crap (1 day at most with medium use, 8 hours with intensive use, no more than 2-3hs SOT), i miss my old (broken) Z1c with 2 day battery life even if it was 3 year old…. I wanted a S8 Active but the price is prohibitive.

Well … this product is NOT a REPLICA but for shore is NOT an Unlocked Phone.

Opened the box and found a phone without its basic covering protection either in the front or back. Weird for me.
Moreover there was a scratch on the screen and that confirmed me it was not a new item.
Seemed to be refurbished but sold as a New Item!
Sent it back.
