Introducing the stunning Infinity Display

The revolutionary design of the Galaxy S8 and S8+ begins from the inside out. We rethought every part of the phone’s layout to break through the confines of the smartphone screen. So all you see is pure content and no bezel. It’s the biggest, most immersive screen on a Galaxy smartphone of this size. And it’s easy to hold in one hand.

Accessibility Technology for all

The Galaxy S8 and S8+ are built to be more accessible for everyone. A well-thought-out range of technical solutions make it easy for anyone to make full use of the Galaxy S8 and S8+’s advanced capabilities.

Say hello to Bixby

Bixby completely changes the way you interact with your phone. It’s a personal assistant that understands talk, text, and taps so you are never confined to one mode of communication. Also, it completely changes the way you search. Just open your camera app and show Bixby what you want. It’s that easy.

Security that’s foolproof

Prying eyes are not a problem when you have iris scanning on the Galaxy S8 and S8+. No two irises have the same pattern and they are nearly impossible to replicate. That means with iris scanning, your phone and its contents open to your eyes only. And when you need to unlock really fast, iris recognition is a handy option.

A camera built for every moment

Capture life as it happens with the Galaxy S8 and S8+ cameras. The 12MP rear camera and the 8MP front camera are so accurate and fast that you won’t miss a moment, day or night.
