As with the regular Galaxy S8, we're really impressed by the Galaxy S8+. 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+, there's little reason to...
Whether or not you're going to buy the Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus is a big decision in so many ways. It's screen size, power and price are all going to be overwhelming.And that's the good and bad of this phone. You're looking at the flashiest phone of 2017, w...
It's looking a lot like the S8 Plus is the Android phone of the year, and we're not even halfway through yet. There'll be some exciting flagships later in 2017 - we'll be interested to see if Apple's next iPhone can top it - but Samsung's high-end phones...

64GB microSD card slot, wireless charging, IP68, brilliant screen, good battery life, great camera, iris scanner, pressuresensitive screen, notification LED
fixed battery, only Android 7.0, no USBPD, fingerprint scanner placement not great
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 th...
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
Samsung waited a little later in 2017 to unleash its flagship phone - but it was well worth the wait.Exquisite design, a high-quality waterproof build, great camera, plus 3.5mm headphone socket for those decent AKG headphones just to kick off to list of p...
What you end up with is a fantastic smartphone in the Samsung Galaxy S8+, which has only a couple of flaws.The ultimate irony is that the area it excels in the most - that incredible design - is the area that it falls the shortest, owing to the awful plac...

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...
