Samsung launched S8 and is expecting high rewards from the consumers after the Galaxy Note 7 fiasco. Samsung had to call it quits on Note 7 phone after recalling it twice and still not being able to solve the issue of burning phones.

Galaxy S8 and Plus comes in 5.8 inch and 6.2 inch sizes respectively. The phones will also have ‘Bixby’, a smart voice assistant rival of Siri. The phone has a bezel-less curved edge “infinity display” covered with prsitine glass and also features a 12 MP rear camera with ois (optical image stabilisation) and a 8 MP auto-focus front camera. A Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 Octa core (2.35 GHz Quad – 1.7 GHz Quad) will be processing the smartphone. Unlike the iPhones, the phone will feature both an USB-C slot and 3.5 mm headphone jacks.

The phone comes with the IP68 certificate, meaning it is water and dust resistant. Both phones also feature iris scanner, face recognition and fingerprint scanner.

Frankly, both the phones sound interesting and pack great hardware capabilities. However, that was the same with Note 7. Let’s just pray this one doesn’t ….well …blow up.
