So far the s8 doesn't seem to have gone down in price much since the release of the s9 :( $599 on Amazon and B&H
Is there any way to get a NEW s8 (not branded to any carrier) for a better price? Also, if I don't need the extra camera features, is there any reason to pay the extra $120 for the s9? ANy other features I'm missing?
Also, what's the difference between the US version and the intl version? (I live in IL if that makes a difference)

There was a DDMS deal on it not long ago...

Any deals that weren't branded Verizon or didn't require a trade-in?

Why does Verizon branded matter??

Truthfully, I don't know, but I need it for IL carriers if that makes a difference. Maybe you can tell me, what does a Verizon branded phone mean? And why is it cheaper?

Downloaded Verizon's software update yesterday. Ugh. 9.0 Pickled Pepper Pizza Pie or whatever it's called.
Draining my battery, I wanna undo that update. Gonna have to Google now to do that, but b out basically took a fantastic phone and sent it back years. Reminds me of my GS4!

Works perfectly. Phone updates always backfire.

+1  Unfortunately this is one big area with Android phones aren't great compared to Apple products- though there are a few exceptions.
