The S8+ contains upgraded hardware and major design changes over the predecessors, the Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge, including larger screen with a taller aspect ratio and curved sides, iris and face recognition, a new suite of virtual assistant features known as Bixby, and a docking station accessory that allows the phones to be used with a personal computer-styled desktop interface with keyboard and mouse input support.
This has been the best Galaxy S series ever and this seems to be a very promising flagship model for the future. Samsung has heard all that the customers want versus other competitors and made this S8+ a very niche model and still made it a value for money. Its been 3 days since I recieved the phone and I have made endless Awww and Wowwww using this phone. Also, love the infinity display and the amazing front camera. This phone is just Awesome.
The new galaxy S8 + is simply stunning . The display is bright ,crisp, visually impressive. Fits nicely in your hand and easy to navigate through the menus with one hand operation. The battery life is a huge improvement ( make sure to drain completely then fully charge for first time use ! ) everything you do on this phone runs faster and smoother than previous models . lots of useful new search functions and help options. The camera has lots of added tools and focus options. Overall the S8+ can't be matched in performance, display , battery life and functionality . I would highly recommend it to anyone who looking for the best phone out there!
Cons: needing new usb c car charger / and adapters
I would recommend this to a friend!

Beauty and the Beast

Beautiful phone to see and hold, but underneath its a beast packed with full of features. S8+ is huge but can manage in one hand a well, suits well for media consumption.
I got the s8 plus and had phone one day. I went to an event with a friend an was taking pictures and got bumped when my phone hit the floor at an angle the screen cracked. I have never been so disappointed. I have had a Samsung phone since the Samsung s2 and never once had an issue with my screen ever getting cracked. Not only am I disappointed due to only only had phone for a day, but now I am going to have to pay for my screen to be replaced huge disappointment.
Pros: Bright display
Cons: Poor quality
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
