Using s8 since its launch. It still hold its place in my heart though there are many new phones with unique and exciting features in the market.

The shape, dimensions, weight, camera, its screen and few of features (or I will say almost everything) made s8 so special and the reasons behind this long journey with S8.

But two things did not justify s8 as a flagship phone.
1. Single charge Battery life - it is mediocre
2. Awkward position of fingerprint sensor- I did not use fingerprint sensor for many months

 
I had to do frequent charging and still doing. Had to go for a battery replacement couple of months ago. Luckily spare was available at service center at reasonable price.  

S20 series is just launched and can be considered for upgrade but my S8 is still going great. It do not feel lagging or slow in performance even today also. 

Ending my note with the hope of easily getting another 6 months or a year with S8.

Thanks
Harkanwal

if there is a need of battery replacement, dont wait too long. as the product becomes old, spares availability also pose a challenge.

and also ask the service centre to do all the sensor's or other tests before and after battery replacement.

Unfortunately, S8 screen shattered and I then bought S10 lite.
honestly, I am still missing my S8 even after spending 3 months with S10 lite.

S10 lite has great battery life and camera specs but for me, it is not matching S8.
