My iPhone 6s was at the end of its life. I needed a new phone. I went back and forth between the 8 and the X after reading reviews and talking to a few folks who were in the same boat. Now that I have used it for a few weeks, I am okay with it. From an aesthetic point, the Samsung Note 8 screen shape and the way it looks. In comparison to my iPhone 6s, the X has a better looking screen and is fast, fast, fast in every app that it loads. The camera's photos look better and handles low light situations (indoors) better. I like the larger footprint of the screen. I haven't used the wireless recharging capability yet. Learning the new swipes and finger movements to navigate the phone took some getting used to but like everything new it becomes easier after the first few days. Being able to swipe between apps is useful and makes it easier if you cutting and pasting. Activating Siri vocally (Hey Siri) does not work for me all the time, which is frustrating if I am driving.
All in all, I like the phone. However, I do not think it is worth $1K or $800 after my trade-in. Could I have enjoyed the iPhone 8, probably. I purchased the X because this is supposed to be the best and latest technology. As mentioned previously, I have a friend with the Note 8 which has a beautiful screen and they love their phone. Would I recommend, yes and no, but more yes. If you are an Apple person, buy it. At this price point, if you are an Android person, there is probably a phone in the Android universe for you.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Used a Zagg shield on my previous iPhone and it served well for four years. On this model, it does what a shield is supposed to do. It feels good with swiping actions and cleaning off fingerprints is relatively painless.

The case is sleek and is very functional. It looks good and fits well in the hand. It is not bulky and compliments the design of the phone.

Bought this model to replace an older version. The buttons on the handset are larger and easier to to use, the layout is better than on previous models. The sound quality in the handset and the speakers is better and not as tinny. Really like the block caller function. Would have given five stars if there was a way to transfer the phone book via cable as opposed to having to enter each of the phone numbers.

Yeah, the truth. I've had the refrigerator for about four years and only replace the filter every year instead of every six months. We are still living and not sick. Do not notice a degradation in the taste or appearance after six months.

You know what you are getting with genuine Canon ink. Will admit that in the great scheme of things, it is not as inexpensive as off brands, but you don't worry about the quality and consistency of color in your inks.

After reading the BB reviews, went with this one since it was on sale. It is a big microwave, look at the size dimensions to ensure it will fit your countertop. Works great, the menus are intuitive if you owned a microwave before. Heats up water and food quickly. The reheat function works well and the food is hot throughout. As far as the sleep mode with the clock, not an issue, there are other clocks in the kitchen and people in 2017 have watches and smart phones to see what time it is. After a month or so of use, we are happy campers and am happy with our choice.
