I just sold my iPhone 7 so what next?

I think I'll keep using the SE and wait to see which one impresses me Apple with iPhone 2017 or Samsung with Note 8.
I no longer have any brand loyalty or even made up "preference".
just want the better product for my money.and that includes better technology,better display and better design not just more user friendly and more reliable software.
I think the S8 is a real eye opener for what level of tech we deserve to get for that much money.
In the meantime I might pick up an S8+ if I can get a substantial offer.

You should get what you want and enjoy it. Not sure what you are looking for as far as comments that would tip the scale in any direction.
No brand loyalty frees you up to try other products for sure. If you want to go the cheap, efficient Android route, there are the Moto G products or OnePlus products. However, if you want the #1 Android OEM, gotta go Samsung. If you're used to reliable customer service and product support, gotta go Google w/ the Pixel XL 2.
Yeah well I won't buy one with it on the back wether that be iPhone 8 or note 8. The s8 fps location is the stupidest thing I have seen on a phone in awhile.
Fixating on minor details there or grasping for straws. I would say LG boot-looping is much more stupider with their phones. Or Moto not including NFC in the US, but everywhere else. LG is guilty of making wireless charging region specific along with their G6 DAC.
You claimed that you haven't made up your mind. Yet every point you made in this thread so far argued for the Samsung.
You can deny all you want but action speaks louder than words. You just didn't want to pay full price for the Samsung, and want others to talk you out of it.

I had the Galaxy S8+ and to me it was a tough decision, I did go back to the iPhone 7+ but debating a return to the galaxy. It is a beautiful fast android phone. It has a headphone out. It supports hi res audio with headphones. It supports FM. The biggest downfall is that it is all glass so either a case is needed, which I hate, or the fear of destruction. Also, the nav bar is white which I hate. There is an app that fixes this most of the time, but certain apps don't recognize the override.
They just announced the "Files" app. I haven't read a lot about it yet, but I think it's a huge step in the right direction.
even at the time of writing this reply,I'm still undecided.
it seems you expect people to be and remain completely clueless about their choice when they ask a question like this even after few replies,more thinking and on going research.
Yes and it was the most interesting thing in the whole iOS 11 presentation imo.
However it seems it's only for iCloud and not devices internal storage.
Agreed, man that thing is ugly, might not stick with iPhone if they have that ugly ass vertical dual camera or that bar at the top
And that's kinda sad because I think they are in the right direction with iOS 11,New iPads and Mac..
but I really don't feel optimistic about new iPhone.
it's going to be hard to match design,quality and features of Galaxy S8..and the $1000 price rumour is just ridiculous and totally unacceptable when S8 exists.
