I believe this to be the cheapest price for a sim free version.

- much better, brighter, higher resolution and bigger AMOLED screen - best on market on phone screen comparison sites.
- bigger screen in same form factor
- much sexier almost bezel free design (ip7 looks old fashioned with its massive bezels in comparison)
- expandable storage big plus (iphone stuck with whatever you bought)
- not IOS (both me and wife had bad experiences with it on ipad, took ages to resolve)
- much faster charging technology, and longer lasting battery
- better camera especially in low light
- faster processor
- bluetooth 5 over 4
- gigabit LTE and gigabit Wi-Fi
- headphone socket
- new iphone 8 / iphone Edition (rumoured around $1k or £850) will cost more (pound depreciation will add 15-20% potentially to price)

Samsung's ecosystem is incredibly huge. Their 3rd party accessories are infinitely larger than Apples. You my friend are stuck in the year 2004 when Android phones was clunky and old fashioned. Now especially the latest Samsungs are sleek, refined and polished. Their cameras are unrivalled, processors faster, operating system beautiful and you get the added bonus's of 256 bit encryption with Samsung Knox giving them unrivalled protection against intruders, Gear VR virtual reality, 360 degree cameras, gear S3 smart watches, Word, PowerPoint and Excel free of charge, unlimited cloud storage for your files, Side Sync which will allow your phone to be mirrored on any Mac and Pc, Dex, the new technology that turns your phone into a pc software on monitors and projectors, screens which are infinitely clearer and brighter, expandable storage, 3rd party apps you can download from the Web - not tied in to a locked down software, full customisation of your interface, you can even have all your apps on the home screen just like an iPhone. Download able keyboards, wireless charging, FAST CHARGING, expandable storage, larger screens to watch movies and play games on, iris scanners, heart rate monitors, screen mirroring to your Smart TV, you can plug in a mouse and keyboard to your charging port, as well as hard drives, you have a file management system to store your downloaded files. I can literally go on forever.

Was going to get the 8+ from samsung directly but after seeing that the UK is yet again being ripped off by them i decided against it. Previously had the Note 7, us UK guys got our money back, those in the US got perks off future phones & other goodies for returning their Note's. Now it looks like yet again Samsung is treating the UK consumer as 2nd tier, no VT headset no 256gb memory card no free games pack. Thanks Samsung, think i may look at the LG G6 instead or maybe the HTC11 whenever that comes out. We pay enough for the phones as it is, cannot understand why we are treated so poorly by Samsung compared to the north americans.

Looks good as long as it isnt a foreign import.

Wouldnt touch them. Looked into buying from them before and lots of reports of them misselling contracts.

TrustPilot reviews seem good, plus this isn't to buy on contract.
Look through the trustpilot reviews. Many people happy as not required after sales service, those who have had problems.
They also report and try to remove negative reviews, there is 2 on the first page alone and reviewers stating they removed their review and had to provide evidence to trustpilot.
If a reviewer does not respond after they have reported the review it is automatically removed. Its ruined trustpilot.

This seems to beat the samsung £20 off + £14 TCB offer.
Does anyone know if this qualifies for the 8 days early offer?

Brits are not getting the latest fastest CPU in it compared to what people in the US and Asia are getting. Is it going to be cheaper - of course not?

The title says smartphonestore but the link goes to smartphonecompany. I have used smartFonestore before and they are good. I've never used smartphonecompany.
