The Galaxy S8+. Samsung’s latest flagship. And some may say “The best phone ever”. Although, I think we should hold back the hyperbolic statements for a few more months, I will say it’s a FANTASTIC phone, and one that I’m actually enjoying a ton. I mean what isn’t there to like? A fantastic screen, amazing design (for the most part), great performance, very solid camera, I mean the list goes on and on.

So why am I returning it?

Well, I'm returning my S8+ for the regular sized S8. The plus is just too tall for me. It's downright awkward to hold. The Honor 8, and LG G6 taught me a lesson. When phones are smaller, and something I can use with one hand, I enjoy them more. The S8 isn't a "small phone" by any means, but it's much easier to hold than the +, and in turn makes it a better experience for me to use.

My life just has become not about my phone anymore, I do so many other things and most of the time I have my phone I have something else going on to. Sometimes I only have one hand to use. And at the end of the day, it's about being comfortable.

By the way: The Bear Motion case has been a Godsend for me. Helping me get to the fingerprint scanner easier and added some nice texture.

What are your thoughts? Did you guys go with the Galaxy S8+ or the regular S8?
