Samsung Galaxy S8 vs iPhone 7: Design
The Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge looked and felt much nicer than Samsung’s previous plastic efforts, but the Android phone still didn’t feel as good as the iPhone 7 – or iPhone 6s for that matter. The Samsung Galaxy S8, though, offers a huge change from the Galaxy S7, and it looks incredible.
With Arctic, Silver and Black colour schemes, the new Samsung Galaxy S8 features dramatically rounded corners, curved screen edges and virtually no top or bottom bezels. There's no home button either, and when you combine that with the S8's Galaxy Edge style wraparound screen, it's a 5.8-inch phone that feels like a 5.2-inch device.
