80% Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 Plus review: Hitting the sweet spot
Source: Android Authority
Samsung has churned out a series of slates that set the standard across the Android ecosystem. No other Android tablet offers quite the same high-quality hardware, expressive screen, and performance. The Tab S8 Plus, in particular, strikes the right balance between size, portability, and power. However, while Samsung has the high-end Android market practically on lock, it is not the only game in town. Competing platforms and devices in the same price range with laptop-caliber chipsets handily outperform the Tab S8 Plus, particularly when it comes to advanced tasks and weighty apps. The Galaxy Tab S8 Plus, solid though it may be, is also constrained by the Android platform which is under-optimized for larger screens. In the end, there are better options for those seeking the best tablets that can replace a laptop. However, if you’re in the market for a premium Android tablet or want a top-tier widescreen media slate with a solid feature suite for work on the side, there is no other device worth considering. The Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 Plus simply hits the sweet spot in a way other Android tablets simply don’t.

Source: Android Authority Archive.org version
The Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8 Plus continue Samsung’s recent penchant of combining outstanding smartphone design with an excellent display to create an all-around fantastic experience. The switch to the taller display has allowed Samsung to cram even more screen real estate into its new smartphones and in doing so, the company is setting the new standard for big-screen devices. Think back to what a big screen phone meant a couple of years ago and compare it to the Galaxy S8 and it’s clear that the future is much brighter, and we’re now closer than ever to phone that is all display.

Even with its software faults, Samsung has crafted a gem of a smartphone with its Galaxy S8+. Its not hard to grasp, has nice viewing angles thanks to its edge to edge display and has sufficient battery and quick charging to accompany it. Using both the S8 and S8+ I prefer this model but if you want something a little smaller you can get the S8 as well as they are identical spec to spec. If you haven’t decided to get the S8 Plus yet at this point it is virtually available on every carrier and in a magnitude of colors.

Is it any better, though? In my view, no, and that’s mainly due to the 6.2in Samsung Galaxy S8+’s size: it’s just one step too far. It’s simply too tall to slip into my pocket day to day. We’ve been here before with big phones, of course. I remember reviewing my first 4.5in smartphone and thinking that ludicrously big at the time, so my opinion might change. But given the choice, and considering the price differential – the Samsung Galaxy S8+ costs a hefty $1,349 to the S8’s $1,199 – the Samsung Galaxy S8 is the phone to choose from this pair.

THE SAMSUNG GALAXY S8+ is, according to the marketing spiel, ‘the next big thing’ — and it’s hard to deny that it’s a device that takes that slogan very literally. This sister product to the excellent Galaxy S8 we reviewed last month has a ridiculously sized screen, top-of-the-line specs and an equally bloated price – dearer than its regular-sized sibling.

Samsung Galaxy S8+ Review: The New Flagship
Source: PC Perspective Archive.org version
The Galaxy S8+ is almost perfect - but no phone is. However, this might be the closest to perfect you are going to get right now, and the gorgeous screen and fantastic battery life certainly tip the scales in its favor. If you are an iPhone user this phone might be tempting, but iOS (and iMessage in particular) are hard to break away from if you are used to them, and the iPhone 7 Plus offers a fantastic larger phone experience with my favorite dual-camera implementation right now. The Galaxy S8+ didn’t end up with a second rear camera sensor, which I can only assume we will see with the Note 8. It also didn’t end up with an embedded fingerprint sensor, as mentioned above. Like I said, the GS8+ is almost perfect. But I still want one.

At the end of the day, the Galaxy S8+ is a phone I’d recommend to most buyers, but only if you’re willing to put up with its fragility. At over $800 outright, it’s an expensive handset, so it’d be devastating to see it shatter within a few weeks. Keep good care of it, though, and you’ll be rewarded with a fantastic range of hardware that could just be worth its high asking price.

Samsung Galaxy S8+ Review: A Flawed Slice of the Future
Source: Androidbeat Archive.org version
The Galaxy S8+ is certainly a stunning piece of smartphone design. It’s fundamentally flawed, of course – the mass of fragile glass that needs protecting, the fixed-use Bixby button, the awkward biometrics – but it’s going to be very influential going forwards. Not just for other manufacturers to copy, but also for Samsung’s own Galaxy S9 in 2018, which is sure to be faster again, have fully working voice control and a fingerprint sensor underneath the main display. That will be a sure fire recommendation, but it’s harder to be so definite with this year’s version.

The Galaxy S8+ and Galaxy S8 are going to set you back quite a bit when it comes to their price tags. They are firmly at the high end, but that goes with the high end device you will be getting. Perhaps more importantly, if you want a device that is at the cutting edge in terms of design loaded down with hardware that works and works well, the Galaxy S8+ meets that need. The bottomline is the Galaxy S8+ and Galaxy S8 are excellent devices that you will enjoy owning and using and move Samsung to the front of the line in the phone market.

There’s the potential that Bixby might be one other vital benefit on the Samsung Galaxy S8, however till the voice management a part of the system launches we can’t make that willpower. I can not wait to see if I actually can simply inform my telephone to ship a photograph to my associates with out ever touching my telephone. If Bixby lives as much as the hype, it could possibly be my favourite function of the S8.

80% Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus review: Bigger and even more beautiful than the S8, but is it better?
Source: Alphr Archive.org version
In essence, the Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus is the same phone as the S8, with all the things that make that phone great, but with a bigger screen, a bigger battery, a more unwieldy profile and a higher price. Is it any better, though? In my view, the answer to that question has to be no, and that’s mainly due to the 6.2in Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus’ size: it’s just one step too far. Although it isn’t over-wide, it’s too tall and although I’d be happy to carry around the regular Samsung Galaxy S8 in my pocket day to day, the Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus doesn’t quite get it right in the same way.

This review wasn’t meant to be an exhaustive take on what makes the Samsung Galaxy S8 right for you. We didn’t touch on the camera (which remains mostly unchanged from last year), the bump in storage to 64GB from 32GB, the unbelievably quick charging times, the decent bottom-firing speaker, or the truly awful placement of the fingerprint sensor. Most of those things you can figure out yourself just by looking at the facts and figures, you don’t need me to insult your intelligence by telling you how amazing it is to have double the storage or something.

The Samsung Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8+ (review) are perhaps some of the most high profile smartphones launched in a while. For Asia, Europe, Middle East, Africa, and India, specifications include an Exynos 8895 octa-core SoC, Mali-G71 MP20 GPU, and 4GB of RAM. The US version has the same amount of memory, but it gets Qualcomm's MSM8998 Snapdragon 835 processor and an Adreno 540 GPU.

But if you want the very best that smartphones have to offer today – and Samsung's most impressive handset to date – the Galaxy S8 and S8+ are as close to perfect as we've seen in any smartphone. This is a company that was once the butt of jokes: for blatantly copying Apple, delivering too much glitz and too little substance and (more recently) selling phones that were fire hazards. Take note: Samsung appears to have grown up, making an absolute beast of a phone in 2017. The S8 and S8+ mark a major milestone in smartphone evolution.

The Samsung S8 Plus is dust and water resistant up to 1.5 meters. Which does check the box for underwater photography. However, the bigger picture here is that if the user drops water or coffee on it, the smartphone will still work. On the flipside, if you drop it on concrete from a height, chances are you will shatter the front or rear glass or both. So, our suggestion is to buy a case or a bumper panel for it as soon as you purchase it.

Most definitely yes. The Galaxy S8 is Samsung's best phone ever. In fact, it's safe to say, that it's the best Android phone in the market right now. I like the Galaxy S8 more because it's more handy and convenient. But, the 3,000mAh battery inside the Galaxy S8 does leave me asking for more. While most users would be able to get one full working day of usage out of it, heavy users will have to charge it at least twice every day. It charges like a speeding bullet though which is a big plus.

The Galaxy S8 Plus is the Android phone you want if you like big and tall smartphones. It has a massive 6.2-inch display that doesn’t make the actual dimensions of the device much bigger. Samsung’s trick was to rid its phone of the physical home button and surrounding bezel, and while that means it has an annoyingly placed rear, off-center fingerprint sensor, the amazing display, great camera and slick software should make you forget about this flaw and its Bixby voice assistant being a no-show on day one.

The rumor mills have been working overtime predicting Samsung’s next flagship device, especially since the company took a much subdued stance in the months following the Note 7 affair. But, they’ve been picking up steam again with aggressive advertising and marketing to put the point across that any battery issues are a thing of the past. These days, you wouldn’t be able to browse a website or watch a video without seeing Samsung’s 8-point battery safety check ads.

If you’ve read our Galaxy S8 review, you’d already know that the S8 Plus is not that different compared to the S8. The only difference between the two, aside from the dimensions and weight, is the display size and the battery capacity.

Samsung Galaxy S8+ review
Source: GSM Arena Archive.org version
It was a tall task for the Samsung Galaxy S8+ development team - not an enviable position, to say the least. Not only were they looked upon to deliver a meaningful upgrade to the S-series in an increasingly competitive market, but had a Note7-sized gap in the company portfolio to fill. And such a task certainly involved taking quite a few risks.

If you’ve gotten this far you already know the answer to this question. But I’ll say it anyway: If you want the very best Android has to offer, go get a Galaxy S8+. It’s not perfect, but it’s as close as you can get. And it’s hard to imagine another phone coming close anytime soon, except maybe the iPhone 8.

Source: Android Authority Archive.org version
The Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8 Plus continue Samsung’s recent penchant of combining outstanding smartphone design with an excellent display to create an all-around fantastic experience. The switch to the taller display has allowed Samsung to cram even more screen real estate into its new smartphones and in doing so, the company is setting the new standard for big-screen devices. Think back to what a big screen phone meant a couple of years ago and compare it to the Galaxy S8 and it’s clear that the future is much brighter, and we’re now closer than ever to phone that is all display.

For the most part, Samsung’s Galaxy S8 is a slam dunk. It’s brilliantly designed, brimming with horsepower and has a beautiful screen. That’s all most people will need, and our gripes are minor. It’s too bad Bixby is still incomplete — its voice interface doesn’t work yet, and the stuff we did get can be hit-or-miss. Fortunately, Bixby is strictly optional, and the rest of the phone is remarkably polished. Long story short, if you’re looking for a new phone, this should be at the top of your list.

Samsung found the right formula in the Galaxy S8+. It dialed in the exact amounts of high design, technical power, and quality build needed to deliver a near-perfect smartphone. The S8+'s flaws are so few and far between I can hardly bring myself to bother repeating them here because everything else is so darned good, though it perhaps has at least one compromise the S8 doesn't.

With all the features that the new phones have, it’s not surprising that the new models have heart-stopping SRPs compared to last year’s offerings. The Galaxy S8, for example, will be priced by Samsung in the Philippines at Php 39,990, while the Galaxy S8+ will be priced even higher, at Php 45,990. Pre-orders for both phones start on April 17 and will run to April 29, with pre-order customers will get a free Bluetooth wireless speaker that’s valued at Php 5,099 to soften the blow. The phones will hit the market on the first or second week of May.

Should you upgrade to the S8 and S8+? Well, if you bought a Galaxy S7, S7 Edge or any other flagship phone last year, the answer is no. Those curved screens are nice, but the new phones’ sky-high price tag will certainly give many people pause. If you’re due for a retention phone from your telco or have a flagship phone from two years ago, go for it, but be prepared for the high prices that the two phones demand.

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 models even better.

With all the bells and whistles of the Galaxy S8 and S8+, it’s only understandable that the phones will be quite expensive when it arrives in the Philippines. Prolific leaker Evan Blass posted expected European pricing for both phones a few days ago and it isn’t pretty. Even accounting the fact that European pricing will always be higher due to higher taxes, you can expect the Galaxy S8 to be priced near the 40K mark, while the Galaxy S8+ will certainly be in the low 40’s. That’s pricing approaching iPhone territory, though you will have to consider that both devices use large, hard-to-produce curved Super AMOLED panels. Still, that price though.

Hands-on article by Jagadisa Rajarathnam

The Samsung Galaxy S8+ is a smartphone where Samsung rethought every part of the phone's layout to break through the confines of the smartphone screen. So all users see pure content and no bezel. It's the biggest, most immersive screen on a Galaxy smartphone of this size. And it's easy to hold in one hand. The Samsung Galaxy S8+ does not only feature an impressive screen, but also strong hardware specification and design. Samsung's Galaxy S8 Plus is another all-glass design wrapped around a thin metal frame, and its edge-to-edge curved sides are accompanied by ultra-thin top and bottom bezels. The Galaxy S8 Plus flaunts it even more than the S8, fitting a tall 6.2-inch display inside truly phablet dimensions of 159.5 x 73.4 x 8.1 mm. It weighs 173 g. There's also no longer a physical home button on the front – instead, the phone relies on a pressurized on-screen home button. There are three color options available for the S8+ which are Midnight, Orchid Gray, and Arctic Silver. As for the display, the S8+ has an AMOLED panel with a quad-HD+ 2660 x 1440 resolution that looks super-sharp. One factor that makes the display super-sharp is the Mobile HDR (high dynamic range). It is really a killer addition to the display. Samsung says this is the first phone with the Mobile HDR Premium stamp. HDR gives users richer colors, inkier blacks and better contrast, and generally makes things look more realistic on-screen. On-screen buttons are popular on other Android phones that benefit from more screen real estate, but this is a big change for long-time Samsung phone users. The fingerprint sensor has been moved to the back, adjacent to the camera. Samsung includes a number of other ways to unlock the phone. Besides the fingerprint sensor and the usual passcode unlock method, both an iris scanner and face recognition provide touch-free unlocking.

Another addition to the Galaxy S8+ is Bixby which is supposed to rival Apple's Siri and Android's Google Assistant. Bixby is dotted throughout the OS, in the camera and its own dedicated home screen. The benefit of Bixby is that it's a system-wide intelligent interface for the Galaxy S8 Plus. The user can control the entire smartphone by prompting Bixby. Like Siri, a user can ask it questions and it’ll carry out basic tasks, and there is no need to utter an awkward ‘wake word’, as there’s a button solely to open Bixby under the volume rocker. The Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus has next-generation power under the hood to match that futuristic exterior, and that's thanks to its new processors. It has a 10 nm octa-core chipset at its heart, matched with 4 GB of RAM. The S8 Plus has 64 GB of internal storage, which can be upgraded via the microSD slot by another 256 GB. As for the camera, there’s a single 12 MP sensor on its back with a wide f/1.7 lens that uses the same dual-pixel technology as the S7. A new multi-frame image processor takes three shots every time user snap, reducing blur and leaving with a sharper single photo. The front camera has seen a bigger upgrade. The new 8 MP sensor has a f/1.7 aperture and there’s autofocus too, which is still a rare thing on selfie cameras. With all these amazing specs put together, it is undoubtedly the smartphone to beat for any upcoming flagship.

Press Review by Capuchino Saber

Considered as the flagship line from Samsung, the Galaxy S line has made substantial marks on the phone market and excited technical and trendy fans. “Samsung knows how to make a premium Android smartphone. For the past few years, every addition to their Galaxy S series has absolutely nailed it, shooting Samsung to the top of the popularity charts” (following a review on page TechSpot), and there is no exception for the new Samsung phone, the Galaxy S8+. As written on page KnowYourMobile.com, "As of right now, though, the galaxy S8 - and Galaxy S8 Plus - are the hottest handsets on the planet. The handsets are designed to help Samsung retain its number one status as King of the Phone Market in 2017/18". Now, we will have a look on this flagship phone with lots of new upgrades.

Design

For the design, according to page KnowYourMobile, "The main thing is that the Galaxy S8 series has only become curvier and more streamlined than its already notably curved predecessors; the corners are completely smoothed and rounded, while the curvature of the edge display follows a continuous line from front to back where it meets a perfectly symmetrical rear panel, with only a thin silver of bodywork separating two". Moreover, as a comment from page TechSpot, the front of this handset is absolutely dominated by screen, so much so that it makes every other smartphone ever released look last-generation in comparison. Also, page AndroidBeat showed their opinion that when pick up the S8+ and roll it around in your hands and it’s super-sleek, super-solid: "It’s like finding an alien object, fallen from space and polished smooth by centuries of space dust abrasion - there are no sharp edges". Remarked upon the Galaxy S8 Plus’ size on page PCAdvisor, "The Plus model isn’t a vastly bigger than the regular Galaxy S8. It’s around 10nm taller and 5mm wider which isn’t much to jump from a 5.8 to 6.2 inch screen". With the opposite viewpoint from page TechRadar, they complained that the Galaxy S8 Plus obviously wasn’t the perfect phone for everyone, and for more reasons than it was too tall for use with one hand. "Having no physical home button is going to be a deal breaker for Samsung fans and their muscle memory", this page added. However, like a remark on page TrustedReviews, the curved front and back help it to nestle in hand, and the narrow design means your palm isn’t stretched quite so much as it is when holding an iPhone 7 Plus. And as evaluated from page EnGadget.com, from their rounded edges to their precisely formed metal-and-glass bodies, they feel like smaller, sleeker versions of the Galaxy Note 7.

Display

The display, as a review on the page KnowYourMobile, is now a 6.2 inch Super AMOLED - nearly as big as the Galaxy Note - but the screen pushes out to much more of the front fascia, indeed, the phone’s front is virtually all screen with an 84% screen-to-body ratio and an 18:9 aspect ratio. "In term of display area, which becomes the most important metric to compare displays of different aspect ratios, the Galaxy S8 Plus’s display is 17 percent larger than the Galaxy S7 Edge’s display thanks to its extra height", said page TechSpot. In addition, regarding page AndroidBeat, when we are using Android, virtual controls at the display’s bottom and the Android status bar at the top frame your content in traditional fashion, though when an application (e.g. watching media) takes control of the whole screen it’s like that moment in a cinema when the side panels pull away and everything suddenly gets bigger and wider. Positively, PCAdvisor stated that it was worth noting that the screen ran at FHD+ (2220 x 1080) by default but it still looked great like this and we probably wouldn’t feel the need to jump to Quad HD but we could do in the settings if we wished - or even dropped it to 720p. Particularly, TechRadar showed their mind about the Galaxy S8 Plus’ display that reading was certainly easier, and split-screen multitasking felt less cramped, but because it deviated from the traditional 16:9 ratio, the phone threw up black bars when playing video content: "This didn’t bother us as much as we thought it would, and it’s partly because every S8 color option has a black front face. It blends really well". "It’s the only phone so far to have been Mobile HDR Premium certified by the same UHD Alliance that will certify HDR TVs. HDR is a big step up for televisions, offering better contrast and a brighter picture - and while it’s great to see it trickle down to phones, neither Netflix or Amazon Prime have updated their apps to support it yet" (TrustedReviews).

Audio and Speakers

As general evaluation from KnowYourMobile, the phone’s audio via the speakers is quite impressive in quality and maintaining this at high volumes. Furthermore, like page TechSpot’s opinion, "The built-in speaker is just a single edge-firing unit with mediocre quality, and that’s perhaps the weakest aspect of this phone’s sound experience. The phone does support 32-bit/382kHz high quality audio through the headphone jack, though". Also, TechRadar showed their dissatisfaction with the speaker on the Galaxy S8 Plus: What’s ancient was the single speaker at the bottom, and they were disappointed to see it. It was easy to accidentally cover up the grille when watching YouTube videos in landscape mode, and really, when Apple was beating us to something with the iPhone 7, we knew there was a problem. On the contrary, AndroidBeat commented that Samsung bundled some excellent little AKG braided headphones - these had good bass and general fidelity and were a world apart from the earphones Samsung had used to bundle: "Well done all round - I really enjoyed headphone audio from the S8+".

Performance

Powered by Samsung’s 64-bit Exynos 9 8895 octa-core processor, this CPU features four 2.3GHz Exynos M2 "Mongoose" cores and four 1.7 GHz ARM Cortex-A53 cores, under ARM v8 microarchitecture on 10 nm FinFET semiconductor fabrication. It also packs a Mali-G71 MP20 clocked at 546 MHz and 4 GB of LPDDR4X RAM. As a remark on page KnowYourMobile, some reports from the states suggest that the US model, running a 10 nm Qualcomm Snapdragon 835, is getting slightly higher performance results. According to TechSpot, it is clear that the Galaxy S8 Plus holds a strong lead over the Galaxy S7 Edge in CPU-limited workloads: "Those upgrading from the Exynos-powered Galaxy S6 will enjoy 37 percent better CPU performance on average". Reviewed positively from page AndroidBeat, the Galaxy S8 Plus is fast, though you always get the impression navigating around the UI that the “Samsung experience” skin is slowing things down - just a little. The PCAdvisor gave their praise for the performance: "The S8 Plus is also a top performer and we can’t say we’ve noticed it lag or slow down at all". As the experiment of TechRadar, the TechRadar’s Geekbench benchmarking gave the Exynos chipset a 6630 multi-core score while the Qualcomm chipset averaged a 6000 multi-core: "More importantly, we experienced no slowdown other than gradually appearing Bixby animations - that’s not actual slowdown". Showing more details on the performance, TrustedReviews said that Bluetooth 5.0 was another addition that they felt like it was there to future proof the phone, but it fixed one of the biggest annoyances the reviewer had had with Bluetooth. This page added we could now connect two devices simultaneously and play the same source through them both, which was great for listening to the same song with two pairs of wireless headphones. Besides, "The S8 and S8 Plus are effortlessly fast machines, and hardly anything I threw at them over a week of testing got them to shutter. This is mostly due to the shiny new Snapdragon 835 and 4GB of RAM onboard" (page EnGadget.com). Lastly for the performance, the reviewer of KnowYourMobile left an evaluation that the Galaxy S8 Plus was one of the fastest and most responsive handsets he had used for some times, in particular the touch input felt significantly more refined than most rivals: "It doesn’t balk at multitasking either, happily racking up app after app in the background, and the memory seems intelligent enough to keep switching smooth when restoring a hibernating app".

Camera

Talking about the camera, TechSpot described the Galaxy S8 Plus used the same 12-megapixel Samsung S5K2L1 (or Sony IMX260) 1/2.5” CMOS sensor as the Galaxy S7 Edge, with 1.4㎛ pixels and dual pixel PDAF technology; it had paired with an f/1.7 lens 26 mm lens and optical image stabilization. Considered as a plus point, PCAdvisor left a review that the Galaxy S7 range has an awesome camera and Samsung hadn’t felt the need to make any huge changes for the S8 Plus: "Overall, the camera app is smooth and responsive, and as you would expect offers plenty of different models and filters to play around with". Regarding page AndroidBeat, this could be the best all round phone camera in the world right now: "Video is optically stabilised and optionally electrically stabilised too, at up to 4K and with good stereo audio capture and that same lightning fast focus as with stills". TechRadar also showed their mind that the front-facing Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus camera had been given an even bigger upgrade, reflected in both the specs sheet and its overall performance. Moreover, "It’s a great camera for varying situations, whether you’re taking landscape shots or portraits in daytime or at night. The new auto HDR mode is turned on by default, levelling out exposure and contrast in brighter conditions, and does a very good job of ensuring that every photo you take looks great" (quoted from TrustedReviews). Also, page KnowYourMobile evaluated that what small tweaks that had been performed had been very careful and precise, and they had made huge difference to the overall quality and shooting experience.

Battery Life

The Galaxy S8 Plus, as commented on page KnowYourMobile, has the best battery of any smartphone that the reviewer has ever tested: “I’ve pretty much only had to charge it a couple of times since I got hold of it”. For the page TechSpot, the Galaxy S7 Edge has fantastic battery life, and it’s great to see the Galaxy S8+ largely living up the performance of its predecessor here. In addition, "During our time with the S8 Plus we’ve found it comfortably lasting a 24 hour period of usage but it’s unlikely to get through a second day unless you’re a particularly light user", said PCAdvisor. Following a remark on page TechRadar, the Galaxy S8 Plus is power-efficient enough to offer day-and-a-half battery life, and they didn’t have a problem running out of juice every day, even with heavy photo and video use. This page also explained that this was partly due to its smaller and less power-hungry 10nm chipset and partly because of the default Full HD display setting looked nearly as good as maxed-out Quad HD resolution. And, "The winner, though, is the S8 Plus and its 3500mAh battery. It clocked in at 15 hours 8 minutes in an HD video at 50 percent screen brightness while the phone is connected to Wi-fi, longer than the Pixel XL, Note 7 and Moto Z Force", recorded by EnGadget.com

Verdict

In general, "This is easily the best phone on the market when it comes to battery life, so if you’re looking for a handset that will go the distance - look no further" (page KnowYourMobile). Evaluated generally, page TechRadar supposed: "It features the best phone display, chipset and camera of any phone to date. In other words, it has the best looks, most power and is extremely photogenic". Notwithstanding, in my opinion, the Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus is considered the exceptional smartphone with such a lot of advantages, like the stunning design, a reliable camera in any light, and the best screen on any phone even though there are some minor detects which make user a little annoyed: single speaker, bad fingerprint scanner position, and Bixby remaining useless. Finally, "At the end of the day, the Galaxy S8 Plus is a phone I’d recommend to most buyer, but only if you’re willing to put up with its fragility", concluded page TechSpot.
