The Galaxy S8 and S8+ were designed to make people remember why ultra-premium phones exist, and to firmly establish Samsung at the top of the market as far as innovation, design and manufacturing are concerned. Very few companies could even attempt to pull something like this off – but has Samsung finally managed to out-Apple Apple? We’ve spent enough time with the new Galaxy S siblings to tell you.
The defining feature of the Galaxy S8 twins is their oversized screens – Infinity Displays, as Samsung is marketing them. Just like last year’s Galaxy S7 Edge (Review), the screens on these phones curve around the sides making for a border-free look. How these phones go further is by extending nearly to the top and bottom of both phones. There’s still about 1cm of space on both sides, but while the earpiece, front camera and sensors can be squeezed into the top, Samsung made the decision to ditch its branding and the iconic physical Home button on the bottom.
According to the latest information, Samsung has officially released the latest May 2021 security patch update for Samsung’s older device Galaxy S8 and S8+ in Bolivia. This software update carries firmware version G950FXXUCDUE1 and G955FXXUCDUE1 respectively. No other changes or additions are part of this release.
