Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus review

 
4.5
Pros: Big screen, acceptable phone size, Best camera on a smartphone, Slick software and performance
Cons: Your most expensive phone yet, Flawed fingerprint sensor, Hello, Bixby? Hello?
Verdict: The Galaxy S8 Plus is the Android phone you want if you like big and tall smartphones. The amazing display, great camera and slick software should make you forget about the awkwardly placed fingerprint scanner and the half-bake Bixby assistant.

Samsung is getting close....

 
4.5
Pros: Display, camera, battery, ease of use
Cons: fingerprint magnet, slippery, fragile build quality, bixby
Verdict: got my S8plus the day after release. easily my favorite Samsung to date, and I loved the Note 4 and the S7edge. my only issue with the phone is the fact that premium seems to equal fragile. gorilla glass is not as tough as it sounds, at least not for drops and such.

Samsung S8+

 
4.0
Verdict: This ‘+' of the Samsung S8 is seriously big and for the first time I have been able to move all my Apps etc. from one phone to another seamlessly. If you are someone whose life revolves round a phone why not have that extra screen size that you get here.

Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus Review: Even Better Than I Expected

 
4.5
Pros: Best battery life on the market; Gorgeously curved, premium-grade metal and glass design; water and dust proof; lightning-fast processing power; well-optimized and polished software package; superb camera and display; great audio quality
Cons: UI has some missing bits and gimmicks; fingerprint scanner placement not left-hand friendly; lacks higher-tier onboard storage (128GB) model; gorgeous curved glass design can be tricky to hold and may be fragile - a case is recommended, which sort of diminishes the aesthetics
Verdict: A really rather fantastic phone which sets the bar for 2017 very high indeed. It's super expensive, but it's packed with amazing technology and the overall package is highly rewarding to use. Best of all it has unbelievable battery stamina

Cons: Odd fingerprint sensor location Bixby is limited and needs work No major improvements to the camera Iris recognition is hit and miss Bottom-firing speaker is average at best

Pros: + Big, bright screen, + Loads of power, + Big battery
Cons: - Expensive, - Overly familiar design, - Face scanner isn't great
Verdict: It lacks the Note 8's S Pen and its face scanner is less impressive than the one on the iPhone X, but otherwise this ticks all the high-end boxes, including a great screen, a premium design, lots of power and loads of extras.

Review: Samsung Galaxy S8+ smartphone

Verdict: It's pretty hard not to be impressed with the Galaxy S8+, despite its tall design, especially because at this point, it's undoubtedly the best smartphone on the market.

Pros: Samsung DeX, Infinity display, Excellent camera
Cons: None
Verdict: It's safe to say that smartphones are a norm now in the world, almost everyone owns one today. Back then you would only see adults owning a mobile device, but now even children are seen with their own smartphone or a tablet.

Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus

 
5.0
Pros: Stunning design, Great software experience, Camera is reliable in any light, The best screen on any phone
Cons: Bixby remains useless, Generally bad fingerprint scanner
Verdict: If you're yet to decide between the Samsung Galaxy S8 or the Galaxy S8+, then there's only one thing you need consider: how big do you want your phone? For most people, the smaller 5.5-inch S8 will be best. It's more manageable in one hand, and will comfortably fit in your pocket.

Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus review: Big, bold and beautiful

 
4.0
Pros: Positively gorgeous, More of that beautiful display, The best smartphone performance so far
Cons: Doesn't offer much more than regular S8, Expensive
Verdict: Before Samsung's plus-sized flagship - the Galaxy S8+ - was in my hands, I scoffed at it not warranting a full review. "It's exactly the same phone" I screamed at the unveiling, to disapproving glares from the Samsung execs sat a few rows down.

Samsung Galaxy S8+ (Plus, SM-G955F) Smartphone Review

 
4.2
Pros: great display, nice design, fast SoC, very good GPS performance, fast Wi-Fi, Gigabit LTE, good voice quality, comprehensive sensor equipment, USB 3.1 with DP, HDMI, and OTG, long battery runtime, Quick-charge and wireless charging, water and dust-proof, very good camera
Cons: …but unfortunately not much improved over the predecessor, no dual-SIM, could support more LTE bands, bad position of the fingerprint scanner, SoC throttling under sustained workloads, warranty does not cover water damage
Verdict: Samsung's Galaxy S8 Plus is an excellent smartphone, which does not reveal any serious weaknesses. The new and almost bezel-less design already looks great on pictures, but it is even more impressive when you hold it in the hand.

Verdict: Samsung has hit the bull's eye with the launch of Galaxy S8 and S8 Plus and it has all the reasons to be happy and smiling once again, while making others to sweat more with their design and pricing. And when I got hold of the Galaxy S8 Plus for the first time, it was mesmerizing.

4.2
Pros: The most beautiful, futuristic phone I’ve ever seen. Enormous, vibrant display without being cumbersome. Great performance and battery life. Camera still stacks up favorably despite lack of hardware upgrade
Cons: The most fragile phone ever made. Dumb fingerprint sensor position. Exynos version loves to throttle. Bixby isn’t anything special. Expensive
Verdict: Samsung has once again produced an excellent flagship phone, and I’m sure it’s a handset that nearly every phone buyer will be considering throughout 2017. It features a fantastic range of hardware and some decent updates to the software, plus the most beautiful phone design I’ve ever seen and...

Ok phone that is fragile

 
4.4
Pros: Great camera
Cons: Easy to use
Verdict: I've only had the phone just a little over a month and the screen is already cracked despite having it in a protective case. It fell off my knee onto the wood floor in my home, faced down. I was told that the cracked screen is not covered by the warranty.

Samsung Galaxy S8+ review: more size and more power

Pros: Superior build quality and elegant design, Impressive display, Very good camera, Smooth performance, Latest Android version
Cons: Battery only average, Bixby not ready yet, Fingerprint sensor placement is odd
Verdict: After the Galaxy Note 7 debacle, Samsung had to prove itself, that much is obvious. It's also becoming apparent that Samsung is reaching its goal with the Galaxy S8+. The design is as elegant as it is successful, the quality of the build is perfect and although the format is unusual, it proves to be...

Samsung Galaxy S8+ review: A powerful, good-looking phablet with a small footprint

Verdict: Did we really need to review the Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus? It is, after all, much the same as the Samsung Galaxy S8, which we reviewed earlier . It has the same features as its (slightly) smaller sibling; the same internals, camera, storage options, and screen aspect ratio and resolution.

Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus Review: What you get for $850!

 
4.6
Pros: Attractive design, More screen area to overall body size, Respectable camera performance
Cons: Characteristic Samsung stutters, especially with Bixby, Little software to actually take advantage of this aspect ratio, Concerns over curved glass, ergonomics, and durability
Verdict: Just when I thought I was done with big phones, Samsung drags me back in. There's an obvious commentary happening here. The return story. The rebuilding. Samsung's comeback. This company weathered a brutal public disaster last year.

Samsung Galaxy S8+ (Exynos) review

Samsung Galaxy S8+ review: The perfect Android?smartphone

Verdict: 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?

Samsung Galaxy S8 and S8 Plus Smartphone

 
4.5
Pros: Beautiful design, Superb screen, Feature packed, Great performance
Cons: Fingerprint sensor poorly located, Bixby is a work-in-progress, It's not cheap
Verdict: The S8 has one of the most striking designs yet for a smartphone. It's an evolution of the Galaxy Note7 and is elegant, classy and unmissable.

Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus review

Verdict: 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 reason to spend the extra.

Samsung Galaxy S8+ review: The best Android phone, bar none

 
5.0
Pros: Excellent display for movie watching (will be even better when HDR content is available), great camera, refined and full-featured user interface, option to avoid Samsung bloatware for best software experience yet, eye-catchingly gorgeous design
Cons: Internal speaker isn't great, Bixby isn't fully realised, rear fingerprint scanner takes a backseat to iris scanning, Bixby button feels like it could be doing something else, undeniably expensive
Verdict: Samsung has broken the mould with its Galaxy S8 handsets, producing two devices that are the same spec, apart from screen size and battery capacity. If you want this phone, just pick the size that fits you with no compromises or additional considerations.

Help Me, Tom's Guide! Should I Get a Galaxy S8 or S8+?

 
4.5
Verdict: My other main reason for getting the S8+ is the battery life. Although our battery tests have shown that the S8's battery life is about a half hour shorter than that of the S8+, I want those additional minutes.

Samsung Galaxy S8+ review: the best plus-sized screen you can buy

 
4.0
Pros: 64GB + microSD card slot, wireless charging, IP68, brilliant screen, good battery life, great camera, iris scanner, pressure-sensitive screen, notification LED
Cons: fixed battery, only Android 7.0, no USB-PD, fingerprint scanner placement not great
Verdict: There are two reasons to buy the Galaxy S8+ – an epic screen and solid battery life. Everything else is pretty much the same as the smaller S8, but it's more awkward to hold and carry. There's no doubt it's a great phone that's practically unrivalled on the display front.

Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus

 
4.0
Verdict: The Samsung Galaxy S8+ is a super-sized version of the S8, with an absolutely incredible screen, and electrifying capabilities to match. It's the most powerful mobile device you can get your hands on, but the price is sky high too.

Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus

 
4.2
Pros: Beautiful design, Excellent camera, Great display, Waterproof
Cons: Battery life could be better, Fingerprint sensor is tough to reach
Verdict: The Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus brings flagship class design and is finally a phone that doesn't look like all others. If that piques your interest, then this is the phone you should buy. It's one of the best smartphones out there today, but an incremental update in everything except design.

Review: Samsung Galaxy S8+

Verdict: When it comes to the Galaxy S8+, Samsung's over-sized version of the S8, it seems that the company has gone about things the right way - at least on paper: it boasts a giant 6.2in screen, the tiniest of bezels and enticing specs.

Galaxy S8+ review: 2017's best phone but even that screen can't make up for a few flaws

 
4.5
Pros: Brilliant 6.2-inch display, Blazing fast performance, Bluetooth 5/dual audio
Cons: Rear fingerprint reader placement, Bixby needs to differentiate, Face recognition hit and miss
Verdict: So what do we think of the Galaxy S8+? We think it's probably the best phone of 2017 so far, shading the LG G6 and Huawei P10 Plus and Mate 9. But it's not a unreserved recommendation; there are flaws here and not even the incredible display can mask them.

Samsung Galaxy S8 and S8+ review: Great enterprise phones with potential to be better

Pros: Great performance; fine build quality; more configurability than with revious models; dock allows use as desktop computer
Cons: Bixby virtual assistant still half-baked; high price in comparison to similar phones
Verdict: Smartphone reviewers throw around the term "flagship" pretty loosely, to the point where it's come to mean "a high-spec phone from a major or mid-level manufacturer." But when you get your hands on a phone with the technical excellence and attention to detail of the Samsung Galaxy S8 series, you're...

Infinity and beyond

Verdict: 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.

Pros: Longer battery life than the Galaxy S8
Cons: Bigger, heavier, and more expensive than the Galaxy S8
Verdict: I may sound a little lukewarm on the Galaxy S8+, but that's just because I can only name one of them our Editors' Choice.

Samsung Galaxy S8+ Review

Pros: * Beautiful design, * Gorgeous Infinity Display, * Impressive Performance, * Great camera, * Great battery life, * Large storage capacity, * Iris scanner
Cons: * Most expensive flagship smartphone in the market
Verdict: 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.
