It is easier going with the same brand you had before.

I had a lot of the galaxies but had so many issues with the S8 that I got rid of it and got myself the Pixel. So far I'm loving it.

TOO narrow? That would just be a personal preference. Most people enjoy having large screen made as small as possible but it is a narrow phone and thin so it may not have the best in hand feel for you. I'd just pick one up and see how it feels and go from there.

Compared to my s6 edge it seemed narrower and longer , looked like a chocolate bar.
Was worried the s8 plus may look too big. Does it come across as a regular sized phone? (Not into phablets, notes etc)
Which do you have?

I killed my HTC 10 and I sold the replacement HTC sent me. Using the s8 at the moment. The size is good for my smaller hands but it doesn't have a nice feel in the hand like my HTC 10 and other phones. It's almost too thin.
I've seen the s8 plus in hand. Doesn't come across huge like other devices do.
Best bet is to handle each in the store and then decide.

Do you find screen too small sometimes on s8?

Never. But again that's personal preference.

It's quite a large screen.

DexStation is pretty sick so far. Just started playing with it, but they made using a phone on PC beyond simple and intuitive. This will be a nice addition to my work station.

Does the s8 support quick charge 3.0? I can't get a straight answer anywhere about this.   Looking for a new car charger.

I had the S7 edge and now I have them S8. It's like sky and earth difference. The S7 used to freeze away my he S8 is such a great phone ( I already have an invisible crack though from a serious fall).
