I keep buying refurbished Icon's from either the carrier or ebay. It's still a viable phone until something else comes out (hopefully!)

I hope you enjoy. Really feel that device is a downgrade from the Note 7. Also the form factor is just odd.Done, ordered 3 S8+ for family and I
Okay, got to play with the S8 at Costco yesterday.
1. Odd form factor. Way too narrow and long.
2. No removable battery. I know my X3 doesn't either, but this should be available.
3. Glass back. Stupid idea.
4. Touchwiz. 'nuff said.
5. No sd card support again.
I cannot see why Samsung would mess up so much. I'm sure, though, they will sell millions. My son was ready to get rid of his POS S7 (which was a replacement for the decent but glass backed Note 7.) but opted for a LG V20 instead. He hated the look and feel of the S8.

Sdcard not supported? Check your facts right
There are different models. Some have microsd, some don't.
Which models don't? There are only two, the S8 and the S8+. Both support microSD cards per the specs on Samsung and every other website.

Not "models" per se. If you read the specs on the Samsung site, they have versions with sim and microSD, and dual sim, with "varies by carrier and country". One of those variations is dual sim with no microsd. Same with the chipset (Two chipsets and varies by country and carrier). They don't have different model names.
Fine, but to flat out say no microSD card support is incorrect. In a single SIM model, there will be a slot for a microSD card. And in a dual SIM model, the second slot can be used for microSD or a second SIM card. In either case it's an improvement over previous generations.
That's not to say you can actually make use of the second SIM slot here in the US or guaranteed in any other country though, but the microSD support is certainly there.
Sure. Wasn't me who said that, what I said was just to help with the confusion. Generally the s8 has microsd. But then so should every phone and tablet in existence!
Wasn't saying it was you. I know it was PerfectReign. So yeah, unless you're running dual SIM, you should be able to use a microSD.
And totally agree. Expandable microSD storage should be a standard anymore, especially on any device with 64GB or less of internal storage. Wanting a device to replace a phone and an iPod touch is one of the reasons I'm considering switching over to Android. My iPod is almost completely full of just music and audiobooks and my phone is about half full of pictures, video, and a handful of apps. I would need something with at least 128GB, if not more, just to combine devices. It seems, other than iPhones, 32 or 64GB is the standard on internal storage.
It were me. I misread the specs and the guy at Costco apparently didn't know.Sure. Wasn't me who said that, what I said was just to help with the confusion. Generally the s8 has microsd. But then so should every phone and tablet in existence!
