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 review
The Samsung Galaxy S8 is a phone that should be one of the very first you look at when deciding which new phone you buy. The large, bezel-less display is truly iconic and beautiful, and the screen quality excellent.- Amazing
- large display
- Huge power
- Great camera
- Irritating biometric unlocking
- Very expensive at launch
- Bixby pointless
Samsung Galaxy S8 review
Samsung has taken the best phone around and made it even better with an impressive Infinity screen and premium design. It ticks a shedload of boxes - as you'd expect from a flagship. It's one of the best phones of 2017, and is nearly half the price of the iPhone X. But the biometrics are a let down.
- Easy to use, great Samsung owned apps like S Health
- Light weight, great screen resolution with a fast processor
- Battery life could be better
- I advise using one of the power saving modes to get the most out of the battery

- Initially complicated
- The phone itself had great features but battery life is terrible
- I had read reviews veggie buying this phone but shocked that I don't even get a full day with the battery charged at 100%
- My old phones performance is better which is 4 years old! Also taking almost 2 hours to charge up
Samsung Galaxy S8 review: Near-perfect comeback leaves competitors in the dust

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 doesn't take long to fall in love with the S8, thanks to its glorious Infinity Display, blowing away all the nay-sayers and winning over fans previously dedicated to another brand.
Samsung Galaxy S8 Review: Ultimate Smartphone
In the past, we've reviewed tons of smartphones. At the time of our reviews, there have been times when one phone had the best display and the other had the best camera and then came the another with the best battery and the like. That way, we had different phones excelling in different aspects.
Infinity Display The Infinity Display gives the Samsung Galaxy S8 the illusion of having no bezel on the sides. We see one piece of smooth glass that curves over the edges, to meet the aluminium shell.
