  • Samsung, you have done it again and produced a galactic overachiever. As a 2017 flagship, its easily 10 out of 10 in meeting or beating every paradigm that iTWire uses to objectively review and assess smartphones and you have added in Bixby and DeX as pot...

  • This is not just a great smartphone it's a classic piece of design that could one day be up there with the classic.Even now it could easily sit next to a Barcelona Chair Designed by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe in 1929 and not be out of place, it would also b...

  • Abstract:  They say that brevity is the soul of wit, and since 'they' seem to usually know what they're talking about, the short answer to the above questions would be pretty simple: Brevity, however, is not the soul of informative web comment, so let's dig down in...

  • The Galaxy S8 Plus is a big phone that manages to make a 6.2-inch screen look graceful. It has every hardware and software advantage of the ultrasleek, curved Galaxy S8, including long battery life
  • You'll have to reach higher to get to the fingerprint sensor on the back -- a straight day of this gets annoying
  • Lovers of big phones won't find a prettier device with a larger screen anywhere else, but you'll want to make sure it isn't too tall for you, and the fingerprint reader too hard to reach, before you commit...

  • Abstract:  'Tis the season! Or rather, 'Twas the season, because the end of 2017 flew by us while we were putting the final touches on this buyer's guide. So, we are clearly a bit tardy for a holiday shopping guide but that was more or less intentional on our part...

  • Gorgeous design, Oneofits kind display, swift performance, great camera, latest Bluetooth 5.0
  • Feels fragile, Awkwardly placed fingerprint sensor and Bixby button, battery performance could have been better, occasional software glitches
  • Samsung Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8+ are undoubtedly the best possible comeback for Samsung after the Note 7 fiasco. The new devices are the most meaningful update to the ever popular Galaxy series of Samsung handsets and a proof that the company can survive...

  • The phone clearly emerges as a winner at the moment. With high end specs and stunning features the Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus wins the heart in every domain. The only problem it might face is the price but it's not a mass product either and the company would...

  • Abstract:  Remember when we were kids, we used to connect two cups with a string and talked over it? Well, that was an actual means of communication back in the day in the mid 1600s until 1876, when Alexander Graham Bell invented the first telephone. An archaic devi...

  • More of a quick taste of what's to come from our detailed HTC U11 review, this comparison we assembled in a jiffy left us wondering. Has Samsung licensed out its Dual Pixel tech to HTC, or was it always Sony behind its development with Samsung having excl...

  • Samsung has set itself aside with the new Galaxy S8 and S8+. It's without a doubt, one of the best phones money can buy right now. There are so many reasons for why you should buy the phone, however it's the 6.2-inch curve screen that is the final deal ma...
