I've come from the OnePlus 5 with a flat screen. I have to say I don't really like the curved edges on the OP8. Some of the items I have to press are right on the slope and it's hard to press them properly.

The main attractive thing in Oneplus 8 is the color. I personally like the Interstellar Glow.

OnePlus 8 Polar Silver. Verizon specific, Looks pretty dam nice I must say

Coming from a OP6,
It's ok, nothing wow about it.

+1. I like the color of interstellar glow. Unfortunately I got Onyx Black variant.

I wanted to buy the black version since all my phones were black, but it wasn't available for the 12 GB variant and I really don't like greenish colors, so I just tried the interstellar glow.
It's fabulous. A fabulous fingerprint magnet. Still looks great with the transparent case. I even saw a shade of green in sunlight after a week.

unique
Absolutely love the design of the phone, the only real reason I backed it on Kickstarter, something different
Amazing! One of the most uniquely designed and looking phones ever. I constantly have people come up to me to ask about my phone, or stop and double take. Please keep the unique and dual-tone colors on the successor to the Nextbit Robin. The length of the phone is great, the rectangular design is great, the circle design language mix with the boxy rectangular design language is just perfect. Such a cool looking phone. Keep this design language.
I absolutely love the unique colors of the mint (dang I wish I had mint night) it just stands out in a good way compared to every other metal slab phone there is.
This is the reason I bought this phone. I have been wanting a true squared phone for a while. The older Sony models were close to perfection, I believe this one nails it. This will be a phone in my lineup that will most likely get the most use, with a OnePlus 3T and a Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge. I can't stand the edge, but I like to have a factory / carrier phone just incase something funky happens. The 3T is a power horse and fun for modding.

I second the notion
I have an Axon7 and a S7 edge, just picked up the Robin a few days ago and love the design.
It not feel as premium as glass on glass (s7 edge) or all metal (Axon7) but it still feel great, and I love the finger print sensor placement!
To this day I can't go more than a week without somebody asking what kind of phone that is? It's very eye catching and is greatly part of why I got it.

Its a beautiful phone.
It's got to be arguably the best looking Android phone made so far.
Easily the most gorgeous and most advanced smartphone of 2016. It's almost like every other smartphone pales in comparison.

It's so damn sexy in Black Onyx! Every time I look at it, I cry tears of joy and get put back on another emotional rollercoaster! Loving the dark theme I downloaded off the theme store along with my dark themed keyboard and Nova Launcher.
It's extremely aesthetically pleasing to the eye. The symmetrical curves really highlight the build and capture the eye. It's an all around stunner!

Saw a black display model. And let me tell you...best phone design ever?

Best looking phone I think, I have both Blue Coral and Black...I need to decide one way or the other.
I had fun filming it and wanted to share it with everyone. Its the most beautiful thing to date. I had a Note 5 and did not hesitate jumping onto this band wagon.
Does anyone found a video where black onyx is compared to the blue one... Pre-ordered the black one but rly wanted the blue one only if it's not baby blue... a lot of video on Youtube have a very good lightning that makes that phone rich blue but rly it looks more like a baby light blue?
Most aesthetically pleasing phone I've ever laid eyes upon. Hands down.

NO. Actually, I REALLY wanted the Black Onyx version of the phone, because I simply prefer dark colors and thought the Blue Coral looked "girly" and "baby blue."
Black wasn't available, so I ordered the blue with the intention of exchanging it and paying a restocking fee later. And let me tell you dude. This Blue Coral Note 7... is.... f***ing astounding!
I don't know why pictures and videos all over the internet make it look so... light blue. But dude, it's waaaaay darker and nicer looking in person. It actually looks like a navy blue candy color. It's beautiful man! Trust me, check it out in person if you can, I decided to keep the blue once I actually took a look at it. In my opinion, it looks much better than the Black Onyx.
It's so nice man. I seriously don't know why it's so light blue looking in pictures, but until you actually SEE it in person, you wont be able to fully appreciate what I'm talking about. It's a shiny, dark, chrome/candy blue, with side panels that look silver in certain lighting, and red amber gold in other lighting. I haven't received my case yet but I have a feeling it's going to blend really well with both black and silver/gray-ish cases.

Thx for the feedback but I don't have any chance to look at the blue until Sept 16. Did a lot of research about the blue and at this moment I have a mix feeling about it. About the black not so much. So I will stick with it ?
Absolutely gorgeous. I wasn't so sure based on the renders, but seeing it in person is an experience. Even my iPhone fanboy friends have said, unprompted, that it looks and feels better than the 6S or 6S+.
This is what phones should look like.
Wasn't a huge fan of the Coral in person (went Onyx), but that's just a small quibble, because it's without a doubt the most beautiful consumer gadget I've ever seen. It feels just as good in the hand. This is Samsung's high water point, they should be proud of the design. It's almost no surprise that something like this would be somewhat fragile. Don't think I could bear to put it in much of a case.
I have to say I love the way the back and recents buttons are hidden. You only see them when they light up. I think it's one of those little attention to detail that makes this device so premium.

Hi. Just out of curiosity (as I'm getting my black onyx in the next few days; which themes was it you got for each?
I'm always looking for good dark themes.

It's better than it looks in pictures. Stunning in person.
Can't fault on that. Beautiful device!
The Xiaomi MIX 18k is the most achingly beautiful piece of tech that I have ever owned; if it weren't for the danger of impact damage, I would use it naked so as not to hide its gorgeousness. As it is, I bought a clear silicone gel case to use instead of the one supplied by Xiaomi.

I've stated this in another thread: the Samsung Galaxy S8+ is a beautiful piece of art. It has the curves of a woman, the sleek black slickness of a Mustang, and awesome cpu muscle! [emoji1531]

More like AMG muscle. Not the kind of CPU that runs people over.
Yeah
I've had non-phone-fan people compliment me on how good looking it is. And I agree, but the real appeal to me is the feel. It feels fantastic in the hand. Smooth and great curves. I have probably 20 cases I've bought and I just can't bring myself to use them.

it's looks are bland and regular, like every other candybar form factor in existence, you wanna excite me let's talk moto razr v4 reboot.
After s7 edge to be honest s10 plus have a pretty refreshing looking for me. I like the hole punch and it's not annoying me at all. It's like a design feature the bottom chin is looks like for me is the double for the upper chin, but it's not really annoying for me however when I first noticed it while watched video it annoyed me a little but I used to it. So the look of the device is pretty good.
Very happy with this device. Going from an LG V20 obviously is a big step up, but I'm a fan of maximizing the screen/body ratio. The hole punch camera is 100% fine with me, I think I'd prefer it to the notch. I use a case on my phone, so that negates the design a bit, but also makes it so the edge is never an issue for me.
