Feels fragile
Awkwardly placed fingerprint sensor and Bixby button
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
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 dimi
Having said the immediately above, those few bullet-pointed gripes at the end of the UI section are just about my only dislikes with the Galaxy S8+, and they are minor, somewhat nitpicky I'll readily admit, and oh so easily looked past in practice when us...

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
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

Big screen, acceptable phone size, Best camera on a smartphone, Slick software and performance
Your most expensive phone yet, Flawed fingerprint sensor, Hello, Bixby? Hello
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 an...
The Galaxy S8 Plus is a big phone that manages to make a 6.2-inch screen look graceful. It has every hardware and software advantage of the ultrasleek, curved Galaxy S8, including long battery life
You'll have to reach higher to get to the fingerprint sensor on the back -- a straight day of this gets annoying
Lovers of big phones won't find a prettier device with a larger screen anywhere else, but you'll want to make sure it isn't too tall for you, and the fingerprint reader too hard to reach, before you commit...
The Samsung Galaxy S8+ is a refined design. The front-filling screen, stripped-back bezels and curved sides make it arguably the best-looking phone you can buy, and it has the internal hardware to keep it competitive.A camera that trades blows with the be...
