Just bought it yesterday and love it already. I sure hope the battery will continue to remain strong. The 6s battery was not so great. What makes the battery life so much better over the 6s? There has to be multiple reasons.

Also is it really water resistant? So I can take a shower with it without getting fried? I have a Apple Watch so I will pass.

Switched from samsung s8 to the iphone 8. Although i do miss some features of the s8,in absolutely in love with my iphone 8. The screen looks much better,even though the s8 has a 2k screen. The icons look much more dense than the s8. I had alot of eye strain with the oled screen,the lcd is so much better fornmuly eyes,the truetone function is superb. Hope apple will bring out a lcd iphone next year,it is proven for me that its better for my eyes.

The battery is just as good as the s8. The smaller footprint is so much nicer and even though the bezels are big,its much more practical to use.

Im favoring this phone over the s8 as dar as use ability and glad i have the iphone 8. The curved screen drove me mad,glad to have a flat screen.

Also the biggest plus of the s8 was fast charge,so i was scaree i would miss that out on the iphone,but with my ipad charger it charges nearly just as fast.

Im happy.
