Samsung Galaxy S8 Dual SIM SM-G950FD 64GB
Samsung Galaxy S8 is the new flagship phone from Samsung. The Korean company announced it on March the 29th 2016.
The screen measures 5.8 inches and almost covers the entire front area thanks to the curved edges and the removal of the physical home button. Samsung applies an Infinitive Design for the screen, which makes it appear larger than it is. The aspect ratio is slightly taller than most other phones at 18.5 x 9. This aspect ratio allows Samsung to offer split screens and therefore two apps can be viewed at the same time.
Galaxy S8 comes with Samsung's own voice assistant called Bixby and offers face recognition in addition to iris scanning and fingerprint sensor.

Samsung Galaxy S8 phone: full, in-depth review
Samsung shovels in the features (as usual) but at least the important ones are good... Very good. It's not cheap but it excels where it matters and that camera is outstanding. It's the best phone you can buy. Where to start with a Samsung Galaxy S phone launch? These phones aim to be the very best on the market and in recent years, they’ve arguably succeeded. But Samsung has always had a habit of hyping them through the roof and sending them to market laden with gimmicky features that can range from I-can’t-believe-they-invented-it to utterly terrible. And yet last year’s Samsung Galaxy S7 ended up being our Phone of the Year (once the price had dropped) and is still a great buy.- Very pretty
- Very fast
- Superb camera
- Bixby virtual assistant is a joke
- Average battery life
When it comes to smartphones with best cameras, the Samsung Galaxy S7 and the Galaxy S7 edge have proven to be the ultimate best out there. With this year's Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8+ , the hopes are way too high.

Samsung Galaxy S8
When Samsung declared that it would be foregoing Mobile World Congress in favour of a separate event to launch the Galaxy S8 at a later date, alarm bells may have rung for some. Especially as the company was still trying to reassure consumer confidence following the Galaxy Note 7's battery issues .- Beautiful design and display
- Powerful processor and multitasking
- Great camera performance
- Big price tag
- Doesn't make most of increased screen size
Samsung Galaxy S8 review: The most beautiful phone ever has one wildly annoying issue
The Samsung Galaxy S8's fast speeds and fantastic curved screen make it a top phone for 2017, but the annoying fingerprint reader could sour your experience. The Samsung Galaxy S8 is without a doubt the most beautiful, polished phone I've ever held. These words were true when I first reviewed it in April, and are still true a month on. I do have some additional insights since then -- scroll down a bit for those.- The best-looking phone around crushes it in performance, battery life, water-resistance and wireless charging
- An external storage slot lets you keep more photos, videos and music.
- 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.

No words to describe the beauty of this phone....Best design ever created ...Battery life is best ...worth every penny
Samsung Galaxy S8 review
I'm guessing that almost every review of the Samsung Galaxy S8 or S8+ starts out with some mention of last year's recall of the Note 7 due to battery issues that led to the spontaneous combustion of some phones. You would think that all that drama and bad press would have hurt Samsung's reputation.- Gorgeous display
- Wireless charging
- Good battery life
- microSD card slot
- Expensive
- Fingerprint sensor location
- Only one camera on the back
- Downward firing speaker
