  • Beautiful design, Superb screen, Feature packed, Great performance
  • Fingerprint sensor poorly located, Bixby is a work-in-progress, It's not cheap
  • The Galaxy S8 is the best phone Samsung has made. Well, you'd expect that. But it's genuinely one of the best phones I've ever seen, and easily the most accomplished, elegant Android phone, despite strong competition from HTC with its immaculate build qua...

  • As with the regular Galaxy S8, we're really impressed by the Galaxy S8 Plus. Samsung has done a great job of making last year's phones even better. However, with both offering the infinity edge screen and the unwieldy size of the S8 Plus, there's little r...

  • Abstract:  As you should expect from a phone that's almost £800, much of the technology is sensational. The edge-to-edge display is not just pretty, it's practical too, and the phone feels great to hold. But Samsung puts two serious hindrances in the way of the owne...

  • Abstract:  I've always been a bit of a size queen when it comes to phones. My last one was the Samsung Galaxy Note 4, because it had the biggest screen available. I've no doubt that my staunch anti-iPhone stance might even sway, should Apple ever bring out a decentl...

  • Positively gorgeous, More of that beautiful display, The best smartphone performance so far
  • Doesn't offer much more than regular S8, Expensive
  • The Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus is very much a five-star handset. It's big, bold and resoundingly beautiful, but the thing that holds it back? There's still that regular-sized S8 to contend with.That's the sticking point and the main reason I've knocked a star...
