... which is pretty much the same as an S8, except it's military grade and doesn't need a case. I've dropped this thing twice on asphalt and threw it 5 feet another time with no effect other than a cracked screen protector.
Been a good phone for me. Had for about year and half now and my battery life isnt anywhere it used to be but that just seems par for the course for these phones unfortunately. Looking to upgrade to the 10.
The standard S8 and S8+ have some of the worst results in drop testing of any smartphone. Even minor drops on carpet have caused the curved screen to crack. Then if you get a bulky case, kind of negates the purpose of getting a slim sleek smartphone.
S8 Active is alot more durable and would last you longer. It's worth the investment.
Really happy with it. Haven't even considered upgrading.
Only thing that's a pain in the ass is how many times Bixby and Peel Remote open up unprompted.
Anak, press the Bixby button and find settings (you might have to set it up first, ironically) and you can disable it there. Now any accidental press won't trigger anything.

no real complaints. the bixby thing is a pain un the nuts but i changed it to the open camera button. my phone takes a beating so the screen cracks are to be expected for me personally, but im sure any phone i had would look similar or worse.

Really? oh awesome. Thanks!
That is fantastic news. Now I can accidentally silence my phone instead of initiating Bixby!
