Weekly Election Results: Galaxy S 8 Model A Bit Pricey , Voters Want Value For Money

When we asked if the Galaxy S8 model price was fair , the number was still just a rumor. The actual number proved lower - $720/€800 for the S8 and $840/€900 for the Galaxy S8+. Still, most votes fell in two categories.

The first (a minority) thinks that even €900+ is fair for the best phone on the market, especially since Apple and Google’s top dogs already cost as much. Very few people (6%) were bothered by the lack of two camera.

However, the overwhelming majority - 72% - is focused on value for money and there’s similar value to be had for less money elsewhere. Will they be swayed by the actual price, which proved to be quite competitive with early 2017 flagships.

We have a feeling those voters will wait a few months to see what OnePlus, Xiaomi and others have in store - they are not shy about bringing the best Snapdragon chipset at a $300-$400 price point (though sometimes you need to import the phone, so it isn't as cheap as it appears).
