The 5.8in screen is packed into a superthin body. While this is not as wide as some other flagship smartphones
It's very comfortable to use

The editors didn't like
Expensive
Difficult to unlock
Battery isn't as good as S7
Bixby virtual assistant is of limited use
Awkward fingerprint sensor placement
Poor design for left-handed users
Awkward rear-facing fingerprint sensor
Rear fingerprint reader placement
Face recognition hit and miss
Bixby needs to differentiate
Irritating biometric unlocking
Very expensive at launch
Bixby pointless
Its awkwardly placed fingerprint reader leads to camera smears and longer unlock times
Which is aggravating when you use it to unlock your phone dozens of times a day
Small battery
Camera isn't much of an upgrade
Bixby needs works
Desbloqueo biométrico irritante
Muy caro en el lanzamiento
Bixby sin sentido
Ärsyttävät biometriset toiminnot
Kallis lähtöhinta
Bixby on turha ominaisuus
Fingerprint scanner is poorly placed
Iris and face recognition logins have limited success
Bixby button initially useless
Connectivity can cause issues with perfect playback/graphical functions
Some features hidden in menus
Full Bixby not yet available
Fingerprint scanner poorly positioned
Colour palette could be better
Sound could be more transparent
Battery life isn't quite as impressive as predecessor
Awfully placed fingerprint sensor
Bixby is a bit of a dud
Bixby is hardly useful
Poor speaker placement
$100 more expensive than S7
The price
Extremely lowlight camera performance in auto needs improving
Iris scanner is hopelessly fiddly
Bixby is incomplete and can't compete with Google Now and Assistant
Fingerprint sensor poorly located
Bixby is a work-in-progress
It's not cheap
Fixed battery
Only Android 7.0
No USBPD
Fingerprint scanner placement not ideal
Sadly
We'll have to wait for Bixby Voice the feature that would really set it apart from other Android phones. There's no official release date yet. This means features Samsung mentions like asking the phone to change settings

With the Samsung Galaxy S8 still to be officially announced, it's far too early to give our verdict on these two devices. Check back for a more in-depth preview once the S8 is announced in March, and a full review once we've had a chance to go hands-on wi...
Samsung has lost an awful lot of money over the Note 7, and more importantly it has lost consumer trust. It has no option but to come back fighting with the Galaxy S8, and for that reason alone it's likely to be an incredible upgrade. There may be some fr...

The Samsung Galaxy S8 has one of the best displays we've ever seen on a smartphone
This smartphone has an awkwardly placed fingerprint sensor

Great camera, Brilliant display, Excellent design,
Expensive, Difficult to unlock, Battery Isn't as good asS7
On the downside, though, one-handed usability (especially when unlocking the device) and battery life aren't as good as its S7 predecessor.It's also very, very expensive. So you may be getting the best phone around but you'll certainly be paying a high pr...
Much more convenient fingerprint scanner position, Improved camera, Smoother performance (but still not perfectly smooth), More affordable, Display, camera, design almost as good as S9's
Samsung's Galaxy series has become synonymous with high-end Android phones, and the newest Samsung Galaxy S9 and S9+ are the best ones so far.But when you have a successful product, you tread carefully, evolving and refining it rather than making any huge...
