SAMSUNG GALAXY S8
The Samsung Galaxy S8, Samsung Galaxy S8+ (shortened to S8 and S8+, respectively) and Samsung Galaxy S8 Active are Android smartphones produced by Samsung Electronics as part of the Samsung Galaxy S series. The S8 and S8+ were unveiled on 29 March 2017 and directly succeed the Samsung Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge, with a North American release on 21 April 2017 and international rollout throughout April and May. The S8 Active was announced on 8 August 2017, and is exclusive to certain U.S. cellular carriers.

Software
The Galaxy S8 launched with the Android 7.0 "Nougat" operating system with the proprietary Samsung Experience (formerly TouchWiz) user interface and software suite.[60] The software features a suite of assistant functions known as "Bixby", which is designed primarily to interact with Samsung's bundled applications and other supported services. The feature allows the use of voice commands to perform phone functions, can generate cards shown on a home screen page (replacing the Flipboard integration formerly featured) based on a user's interactions, and perform searches utilizing object recognition via the camera.

Bixby will support third-party integration via an SDK. The S8 supports the use of a docking station known as Samsung DeX to access a PC-like desktop environmenton an external display, with support for mouse and keyboard input.[69] On 21 April 2017, coinciding with the phone's official retail date, reports surfaced that the default music player on the Galaxy S8 would be Google Play Music, continuing a trend that started with the S7 in 2016.

Hardware
The Galaxy S8 and S8+ both feature 1440p OLED displays, with an 18.5:9 aspect ratio taller than the 16:9 ratio used by the majority of smartphones; the S8 has a 5.8-inch panel, while the S8+ uses a larger 6.2-inch panel. The displays on both devices curve along the side bezels of the device, with minimal bezels that Samsung markets as an "Infinity Display", and the display panel itself has rounded edges. They use DCI-P3, offering what screen-testing website DisplayMatedescribes as the largest native color gamut, highest peak brightness, highest contrast rating in ambient light, highest screen resolution, lowest reflectance, and highest contrast ratio. The S8 features an octa-core Exynos 8895 system-on-chip and 4 GB of RAM; models in North American markets utilize the Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 instead. Both chips are manufactured by Samsung with a 10 nm process. They contain 64 GB of internal storage, expandable via microSD card. The Galaxy S8 is one of the first smartphones to support Bluetooth 5, supporting new capabilities such as connecting two wireless headphones to the device at once. It is also bundled with Harman AKG earbuds. Both smartphones have improved satellite navigation over the predecessors by including Galileoreceivers. In the United States, the S8 and S8+ are available in Midnight Black, Orchid Gray, and Arctic Silver color options, whereas gold and blue are available internationally. The blue option was made available in the U.S. in July 2017.

One of the most important things is the camera, and Samsung has every reason to boast with the one on S8 and S8 Plus. Don’t let the number of megapixels fool you. You may think it is not enough, but when it comes to the camera, it is not about the numbers, it is about the quality.

The first digit is for dust and the second one is for water.It can be in the up to 1.5m deep water for 30 minutes.

Cons:
Battery

The Samsung Galaxy S8 comes with 3000 mAh battery, and S8 Plus comes with 3500 mAh battery. The question is, can this be enough for such a powerful phone? The way you use your phone has a huge impact on the battery life. If you play games, surf the web all day long, you can’t except that the battery will last as long. In other words, if you are a power user, you will have to charge the phone more often.There are many things you can do in order to improve the battery life on Samsung Galaxy S8. Still, Samsung could do this better. But, don’t worry too much, as S8 comes with fast charging. And yes, it does charge really fast. Fingerprint Reader Position

When speaking of Samsung Galaxy S8 cons, we have to mention fingerprint reader position. It is pretty weird. Samsung decided to place fingerprint reader right next to the phone’s rear camera. You will find that fingerprint reader is hard to reach.
