About this deal

The Samsung Galaxy S8 carried a hefty price tag when it arrived in April 2017, but close to two years on the cost has reduced significantly, making the phone an attractive proposition for those who find the S9 a little on the steep side. Voice control wasn’t ready to be used from launch, which seemed a mite strange. However, since the launch of the Galaxy Note 8, Samsung made the voice-assistant available to Galaxy S8 and S8 Plus owners. The accuracy of this varies wildly. Bixby was completely flummoxed by a Nike trainer, but successfully recognised a bottle of Heinz Tomato Ketchup and, oddly, the cloisters of Durham Cathedral. I suspect GPS may have come to its rescue in the latter example.

Adding some scientific measurements to my ocular observations, our colorimeter showed the Galaxy Tab S8 hitting 72% of the DCI-P3 color gamut when in its Natural setting. The iPad Air can smirk for a moment at 79% before the Tab S8 reveals it was sandbagging and jumps to 112% in its Vivid mode. LumaFusion is currently not available on Android. LumaFusion is to be released for service in 2022. LumaFusion app availability may vary depending on country, region, and carrier. SM-G950FD, SM-G950W, SM-G950S, SM-G950K, SM-G950L, SM-G9500, SM-G950A, SM-G950P, SM-G950T, SM-G950U, SM-G950V, SM-G950F, SM-G950U1, SM-G950N, SC-02J, SCV36, SM-G950, G950F And then there's Bixby Reminders, where you'll be alerted to things you've made a note of in the past. You can set a location trigger to remind you to buy fruit when you pass a location, or ping you at a certain time to remind you to call someone. The Galaxy S8 is also excellent at learning your power usage habits, so when it tells you that you’ve got eight hours’ battery life left, it’s more believable, and means you can plan more effectively to find a charger if you know you’re going out in the evening and will need a top-up.They’re comfortable, don’t leak sound unduly at high volumes and, depending on how much you care about sound quality, could be all the headphones you need. Although it’s a small thing, it’s good to see such attention to detail from Samsung. Samsung Galaxy S8 review: Display The new 2-in-1 Book Cover Keyboard available for Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra, Galaxy Tab S8+, and Galaxy Tab S8. Book Cover Keyboard Slim available for Galaxy Tab S8+ and Galaxy Tab S8. Armour Aluminium is cased on all metal components, excluding the display, side keys, and the SIM tray. Both of these are the first ever mobile phone chips to be manufactured on a 10nm process, which promises greater efficiency and potentially faster performance, and both offer the possibility of connecting at up to Gigabit 4G/LTE speeds as and when the networks upgrade.

On the train, this is not acceptable behavior – and after a couple of days, it actually made our eyes hurt, pushing them out on stalks so often. Requires optimal connection. Actual speed may vary depending on country, carrier and user environment.Finally, to Bixby – Samsung’s much-vaunted AI assistant. Think of it as a counterpoint to Samsung’s Alexa, Apple’s Siri and the Google Assistant. The fast charging, although not improved since last year, is miles better than on any phone that arrived in 2015 or earlier. We started charging the S8 from completely flat, and within five minutes it had reached 7% – good enough to make it home on a commute. The Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 runs Android 12 with a number of enhancements from Samsung to support the S Pen and deliver superior integration with Samsung phones, smartwatches and earbuds. The Tab S8 Plus has a 12.4-inch display that has a higher resolution of 2800 x 1752. The picture improvement isn’t instantly noticeable here, but we enjoyed the experience on this screen as well. For comparison's sake, we re-ran the battery test with auto-brightness on in mixed lighting conditions, and the drop was only 14%... that still hints that the battery isn't as long-lasting as the Galaxy S7, but there are more pixels to power thanks to the longer display).
