I have been an android user from the get go and have never owned an iPhone. I'm happy with my S7 but instead of jumping for the S8 this time I'm thinking about giving the iPhone 8+ a try. I like the android platform but I want to try something new. Anyone here jump to the iPhone 8+ from Samsung? If so how has the switch been?

I also was an android user. And still I have an android device. But right now I am not thinking to switch it into another device. Hope I will do it later.

Welcome to iMore.

I have both an S8 Plus, iPhone 8 Plus and iPhone 7 Plus. I went the opposite way. I went iPhone to android. It was not hard to do. You would get use to it very quick. It is probably easier to come from android and go to iPhone. It's just a matter of finding where things are and what they are called. Thanks.

I have an iPhone X, an iPhone 8, and a s8+. I switch back and forth fairly regularly, but was originally an iPhone user. It might feel a little limiting going from Android to iOS, but I find iOS to be the better platform overall. Especially if you use other Apple products.

Samsung products have been kinda iffy to me. I have the S7 Edge and absolutely hate it. I liked my Note 7's, but didn't really get to use them very long. The S8+ is a very nice phone, but I still feel the software is a little janky compared to my iPhones/HTC phones I've had.

If you decide to make the switch one thing to remember to save you some headache. Almost all app settings are managed through the main Settings app instead of inside the app itself.

I'm in the exact same position as you... I actually came here to ask the same question and came across yours. I never had an iPhone. I tried Windows , but always came back to Samsung. tempted with note 8, or iPhone 8 plus for a change.
