Yes, but you have to understand that you are not everybody. It's like when you go to a car dealership and the car salesman tells you the monthly payment without telling you the price of the car or terms of the loan. Tmobile is trying to make the monthly payments lower. It's an advertising gimmick. Get a Samsung S8+ on a lease for 30 bucks. Actually less a month than eip. Many people will inadvertently shell out the 130 bucks and yes, if you don't keep it tmobile makes money. I'm not arguing that point. My point is that it is what it is. You don't want to pay then don't and wait. Tmobile could care less about any bodies personal situation and also once you return the phone after 3 months tmobile can only refurbished the phone for exchanges. They actually loose money. So it makes sense that they want to recoup the loss. That's common business sense. Oh and I know now everybody is going to say, but I am an important tmobile customer! I deserve what I want! Bottom line is that compared to the masses that are paying the extra 130 bucks you are needle in a haystack so why should tmobile care.

I know it sucks and maybe not right but like I said, self entitlement is the worst thing that has happened to our society. That's life. We all complain about life but you have to face the fact and move on. Sure, call tmobile, complain here, but bottom line is tmobile wants your 130 bucks and they don't care. Accept and move on and like I said, it's a free market, move to another service or get another phone. Yes maybe with the Note 7, they changed thier policy but remember the Note is Niche market, not a mass market so tmobile was more apt to listen.

Yes if maybe enough people *****ed then maybe they would make a higher lease payment with 0 down but that isn't going to happen. Also, remember that's what is different about a lease. You don't have to keep it for 18 months. You are paying extra for that convenience. Actually they probably make more off of leases than eip but maybe they loose money when people give back a phone after 3 months so for them it makes business sense.

I know that several people pointed out the contract but how often do you see large corporations in breech of a contract to make more money. It's a game of profit vs risk. Sure we could sue but what would end up happening is that a few lawyers would get rich and you would get a $25 gift card and even in a lost law suit they would still be in the green for all those people who paid. They would still make money so what's the incentive for them not to breach the contract.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] Nonbiasedhippo:
The amount of entitlement is astounding lol if you don't like the price don't buy it. Sounds like some people wants Tmobile to bend over backwards to accommodate you...if they gave you zero down you'd complain about how monthly payments are too high.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] Sirdragonx:
And yes, I am one of those who paid and will probably keep the phone until the Note 8 is out and shell out again when the Note 8 comes out.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] busab:
I pre-ordered the S8 plus. I hate the $130 down and I am annoyed with it, but it is what it is. I knew about it before I even called. If they offer zero down soon I will call and get my money back but if not it's no big deal.

I did a white screen test against my s6edge. I didn't notice anything on the s8 that looked strange but just wanted to test since everyone else is. My s6 is actually a little red tintish/dim but my s8 is perfect, now I can't even look at the s6's screen. I never even noticed it the last 2 years

But seriously, I'm keeping my eye out for XDA reviews of the phone. I have the G6 and JOD, so I'm debating going for it (don't know why, 'cause I love the G6...I think switching phones is an addiction), but I might just wait till the Note 8 makes its debut.

Has anyone tried putting another simcard into their t-mobile s8/s8+ to see if you can use another US carrier on it? We are on SM-G950U firmware which means unlocked firmware im thinking all devices that were sent to the US are unlocked so any carrier should work on it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] J-Hop2o6:
I said the same exact thing! I thought my S6 screen was perfect/great, but man, the S8 straight murdered the S6 screen. Can't believe I was looking at this for the past 2 years. Making it look like an S4 screen or similar, lol.

Oh yea, I don't have the red tint issue on my S8. Maybe very slight on the top edge when the notification bar is white. :shrugs: We'll see down the road, but i don't feel like rolling the dice on a replacement.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] mlock420:
Idk man this phone feels good in the hand...if I didn't have another phone next to it, I wouldn't be able to tell the narrow-ness of my s8+...seems perfect...but the fingerprint and Bixby button is my only complaint which isn't a deal breaker

Enjoy the feel in hand and is a big change from the normal large device I'm used too lol but still great and quickly getting used to it.

Did you have a chance to hold and compare the s8 with your edge before preordering? It is narrower and once I saw the plus in store I went that preorder route

It seems like a coin flip honestly, there was a guy a couple posts back that said 1 of the 3 S8+ he received today had the Red Tint. So I'm hoping the phone I receive Saturday is a good one.

I agree it tales a bit of getting used to. That being said, I really like it so far. Only thing I cant seem to get right is fingerprint scanner. I keep trying to do it like my daughters' Huawei honor 5x. Wish they had put it center, but I guess they put it there for either 1)aesthetic balance to balance with the flash or 2)space constraints. Without seeing the inside of the phone, maybe putting it below camera module wasn't possibly due to other hardware locations in device.

Any case, I'm truly happy. Just hoping I can protect this screen after not being able to do so with trhe s7e last year.
