  • Industry leading, stylish and sleek design, Singlehand friendly, Gorgeous display, 64 GB of storage microSD support, Good camera, Excellent battery life, Waterproof, Affordable for what it is, Fast performance, Extremely fast Dash charging, No microSD car
  • There is one thing that draws a clear line between the Galaxy S8 and the OnePlus 3T, and it's not the camera, the battery or the software: it's price.Put simply, the Galaxy S8 is the much more expensive phone! The full retail price of the S8 is set at $72...

  • Compared to other devices within its class, the S8 beats all competitors. Unfortunately, it's the comparison to much cheaper smartphones that diminish the S8's appeal. The ZTE Axon 7 (our review ZTE Axon 7 Review ZTE Axon 7 Review While most high-end phon...

  • Abstract:  There is a lot to talk about with the Galaxy S8 from Samsung, a device that had more rumors and speculations than I care to count. Though a lot were more fact than fiction. But the device is finally here sporting a much larger display at 5.8-inches dual e...

  • Abstract:  Samsung's latest flagship phones, the Galaxy S8 and the Galaxy S8 Plus, are two of the most unique looking phones currently on the market. We got our hands on both of these phones at Samsung's Unpacked 2017 event at the end of March, and now we bring you...

  • excellent screen, stylish design, fast SoC, very good GPS qualities, fast Wi-Fi, Gigabit LTE, decent call quality, solid sensor configuration, USB 3.1 with DP, HDMI, and OTG, good battery life, quick-charge and wireless charging, water and dust-resistant
  • though not much better than in the predecessor, no dual-SIM, fingerprint scanner hard to find via touch, SoC throttling during permanent load, warranty does not cover damage due to liquids
  • The first hands-on with the new Galaxy S8 and S8 Plus leaves us wanting more. Samsung has apparently improved the camera quality of this year's models considerably compared with the S7 (Edge). The casing's build, and the new Infinity panel's contrast, bri...

  • Abstract:  Last year, Samsung came agonizingly close to making the perfect smartphone. We called the Galaxy S7 “one of the most complete mobile packages we'd ever seen.” The Galaxy Note 7 was even better (and, at least temporarily, our favorite phone of 2016).But, a...

  • I've seen plenty of people say they don't like the Galaxy S8. Why is that? Is it just because they're haters of everything Samsung? I mean, even if you're a Samsung hater, it's hard to dislike the Galaxy S8, at least in my view. It's one of the more beaut...

  • Exquisite design, amazing curved display, blazing fast performance, one of the best rear cameras ever made,
  • Bixby not fully implemented as yet, not cheap, Bixby button not reconfigurable,
  • Offering innovative design, impressive performance and one of the most powerful cameras yet mounted on a smartphone, the S8 shows that Samsung is still at the top of their game. If cash is no object, this is one of the best phones that you can currently...
