The Korean company Samsung revealed its most recent flagship smartphone, Samsung Galaxy S8, at the Unpacked 2017 event held yesterday, March 29. Pre-orders for the handset will begin on March 31 while the gadget itself will be delivered to U.S. shores on April 21. This gives fans three weeks to consider their choice while waiting for their orders to be delivered.
There's little to discuss in regards to the features and specifications of the Galaxy S8. On paper, the mobile phone is seemingly one of the best ever. Justifiably, a few people might have doubts about buying the smartphone due to Samsung's current bad reputation, courtesy of recalls and exploding batteries of Note 7.
It is certain that the highly expected Samsung Galaxy S8 is a wonderful piece of device, as the thin and well-built look of the Galaxy S8 is both surprising and not. In spite of the numbers of rumors and leaks displaying the design of the Galaxy S8, seeing and holding the original gadget still feels extremely amazing. The Samsung Galaxy S8 sports glass and metal absolutely while giving its clients more space to work on with its massive 5.8-inch screen (6.2 inches for the S8 Plus) packed in a somewhat flexible body. The bezels are unmistakably slimmer, the sides are curved and no more physical home button.
Another feature that got a superb update is its front camera. The Galaxy S8 now sports an 8MP front-facing camera,while the rear snapper will boast 12MP lense. Samsung also revealed its Bixby voice assistant. The company guarantees that Bixby can do more when compared with other digital assistants, however, for the time being, it will just work with certain Samsung applications.
The biggest worry with the Galaxy S8, as CBS noted, is its battery. Samsung recognized or acknowledge the dilemma of the Galaxy Note 7 when its administrators clarified that the company implemented new and better models and procedures including an eight-point battery check for their gadgets starting with the Galaxy S8.
The Verge expressed that Samsung did not declare a fixed price for the flagship mobile phone. This is a typical routine of the Korean tech company which prefers that carriers direct the actual retail price. Nonetheless, many guess the mobile phone to be accessible for no less than $720. While the price will vary on the carriers, what is expected now is that the Samsung Galaxy S8 will be launch April 21.
