I chatted with a rep about exchanging the s8 snapdragon for an s9 exynos, the guy told me not to worry about the differences, and would not reassure me of being able to choose the exynos over the snapdragon...

I ended the conversation early.

that's impossible lol 2 complete different phones, a generation apart. no company would outright let you swap phones like that for free.

I never said anything about free, I posted in the thread about trade system.

I guess I should have stated trade up not exchange.

Interesting how fast the price is dropping in EU.

Can already find the S9+ for ~€800. It launched at €950.

I say give it another 3-4 weeks and it'll be under €700.

Also, can be had for $820 on US Ebay - S9+ dual sim exynos.

Price is falling WAY quicker than the S8 and S8+, both due to slower sales and incoming competition that should be fierce.

Yes, bought one from different vendor, G960F/DS (although the buid prop shows G960F) No OEM and i have to wait for a week to check. Half of the eBay are floating with G9600 which are clearly snap variants of HK.

That snap will likely have an unlocked BL but they never get any love from developers.

Exynos is still the way to go despite the OEM wait, hopefully the patch made by Dr Ketan works on oreo.

Im still hunting for a grey 128gb exynos, damn hard to find.
