Just want more screen real estate. I thought of the regular 8 though. Actually entertained the idea of getting the X as the size would be close to ideal for me. My G6 is near perfect (and it looks like the V30 will be ever so close the the size of the G6..plus lighter and a bit thinner).
After viewing and reading about the X (and the corresponding $$$$) I thought maybe I'll wait til the next iteration of it. I'm not comfortable spending that amount for a whole new design and yada yada (first release). Just like I'm now also waiting to see what the next round of Pixels will be like (didn't buy first year model then) ... so --- looks like it could be a good Christmas this year for me lol.
I did handle a 6 plus that a coworker has to see how it handled in my hands. It is a fairly big phone --- but I think I'll be able to handle it ok. The 8 plus is about a 1/4 inch taller than my 950XL ... but a tiny but narrower.
I think I'll manage it ok ... will see for sure once I'm using everyday.
When using my 6S I found myself wanting for a larger display.
