The design looks really good, 3 problems:

1: it's way too fucking big. 5.8 inch wtf? I dont need a screen size that huge. I'd rather have the bezels gone but with a 5 inch or less screen and have the phone be smaller. It's  uncomfortable in a jeans or to hold with 1 hand.

2: Samsung UI is just crap

3: I'm really excited for the 10th anniversary of the iPhone

The best android phones to get imo are the Google variants offering a clean and Uncompromised UI. Samsung overlays their OS onto android, just as LG, HTC and everyone else does. If you want a phone that doesn't have pre installed junk apps that can't be deleted, go with a google phone - in this case the Google pixel XL. Google phones are feature packed and generally have top tier specs.

Sony Xperia UI is the one I love the most, it's simple and clean.

5.8 inches wouldn't have been the problem if the phone were somehow less than 140 mm in height, but I draw the line at 145 mm height (S8 is 149 mm). After all, it is a skinny mofo at less than 70 mm. My personal 'golden dimensions' are 140x70x9mm. If I can get less than or equal to that, I'm a happy camper.

... Which is why I love my Xperia X Compact. Not much different from the Xperia Z5 Compact, I wager, but I still love the finger print sensor in the power button. Won't switch from this until there is a good upgrade to it!
