Samsung has removed the real home button and replaced it with a default button under the front screen which is sensitive to compression.

For 4G fans, the phone supports much higher speeds than the rest thanks to LTE Category 16 support. For comparison, the S7 supported LTE Category 9 and gave a theoretical maximum load - non-actual - 450 Mbps.

Strangely in the phone screen use the length ratio to the new display is 18.5: 9 making it longer than other phones. This may cause some problems in watching the video so that a black bar appears on both sides, and luckily that Android is editing, this problem will not appear with applications and games.

Turn the fingerprint sensor back on the side of the camera. If it is bothering you, you can use face recognition or iris to unlock your phone.


Bixby

More than a week ago, Samsung unveiled its new smart audio assistant, Bixby, to join other global voice-assisted companies such as Siri, Cortana, Google, Echo and others.

Bixby features photo recognition so that you can not only give voice commands but shop and search and get more details about places around you.

Interestingly, Samsung plans to push users aggressively to use its new assistant so much so that there is a real physical button next to the S8 phone when pressed. The voice plugin works - while removing the main button, another button is added! -

The Voice Assistant homepage displays as with Google Now where notifications and suggestions are displayed.

Bixby will now be available on the new Samsung S8 and S8 Plus phones and with time will reach more devices and support for various applications and services.
