Abstract: With the exploding Note 7 battery fiasco, Samsung inadvertently did something that's increasingly difficult these days: It made smartphones interesting for a flickering moment. Super interesting in fact. Besides the intrigue of the mournful saga of Note 7...

fixed battery, only Android 7.0, no USBPD, fingerprint scanner placement not ideal
The Samsung Galaxy S8 is the best smartphone available, full stop. It has raised the bar for top-end smartphone design, is one of the most future-proofed phones you can buy and squeezes a large selection of cutting-edge technology into a consumer-friendly...
Best in class display, gorgeous design and compact for a 5.8in smartphone, slick performance, excellent camera, decent battery life
Awkward rear-facing fingerprint sensor
The Samsung Galaxy S8 is the only smartphone to have ever made us look at our iPhone's Retina display with disgust. Yes, it's expensive, but it's also undoubtedly the best smartphone on the market right now. Assuming it isn't prone to bursting into flames...
Irritating biometric unlocking, Very expensive at launch, Bixby pointless
Apart from the irritating performance of the biometrics and the high price, the Galaxy S8 is a phone that offers an exceptional experience for any user. The large screen is a real turning point in flagship phone design and should usher in the end of large...
Expensive, Difficult to unlock, Battery isn't as good as S7
In the early years, Samsung came out and dumped the very highest specs and features into its latest Galaxy S device, and dealt with the design thereafter.Since the S6, that's been changing and the Samsung Galaxy S8 represents the very pinnacle of Samsung'...

A superfast, frustrationfree phone for everyday use, Stunning design and build quality, Sharp edgetoedge screen puts the focus on content
Extremely lowlight camera performance in auto needs improving, Iris scanner is hopelessly fiddly, Bixby is incomplete and can't compete with Google Now and Assistant
Mark Walton The iris scanner, the heart-rate monitor and Bixby in its current state exemplifies what's wrong with Samsung's approach to mobile. It's the endless array of features, useful or not, that Samsung throws at its phones. It's the hope that...
Samsung has taken the best phone around and made it even better with an impressive screen and design. It ticks a shed load of boxes you'd want a flagship to do. It's the best phone of 2017 so far but it is expensive and the biometrics are a let down. We'r...
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
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...

Expensive, Battery life isn't quite as impressive as predecessor
The Galaxy S8 is a thing of absolute beauty. Pairing speed and power with a sophisticated and attractive design, it runs rings around its competition in almost every arena. Not only is it the the peak of Samsung's smartphone design, it's set a new bar...
