Editor-in-Chief with 25+ years in tech, reviewed 1000+ gadgets.
  • Pros
  • Sexy design
  • Loaded set of hardware and software features
  • Smooth performance and decent battery life
  • Excellent camera quality
  • Cons
  • Slippery
  • Seems fragile
  • Fingerprint scanner is iffy
  • Speaker quality could`ve been better
  • Verdict

The Samsung Galaxy S8+, in my opinion, is a very compelling option if you’re in the market for a premium smartphone. The issues I mentioned earlier are niggles at best, and the fact is that the S8+ does pack in a lot for its asking price. The only rival that comes close is perhaps the LG G6 (first impressions), and spec nerds would agree with me when I say that the G6’s Snapdragon 821 feels so 2016 in comparison (though we all know that it’s the user experience that matters, and not just specs).

The Samsung Galaxy S8+, in my opinion, is a very compelling option if you’re in the market for a premium smartphone.

And, the S8+ looks far sexier too. For the longest time, one of the thumb rules I’ve used while reviewing and recommending smartphones is to ask myself whether I would buy that device for its asking price or not. And for the S8+, the answer I got from myself was a resounding yes. So if you can afford one, I don’t think you can do better than a Samsung Galaxy S8+ at the moment.
