We say this as the Galaxy S8 and S8+ pre-orders were a massive success in the South Korea exceeding that of the Galaxy S7 and S7 edge in 2016. Both the displays are called Infinity Displays which possess no bezel to the sides and completely curve around the edges. But many cheaper phones do just fine. Samsung had also started a pre-registration page earlier, but the pre-bookings could only start from today. And it's a flat screen, in case you're not swayed by curves.

On the other hand, the Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus would also be available starting from May 5 with price tag of Rs 69,000, while dealers may sell it at Rs 63,900. So if a user wants to reduce the brightness of the screen, switch on Bluetooth, or set a reminder on the phone, he can ask Bixby instead of doing it manually.

You can learn about the top features of the Galaxy S8 models here. Both smartphones will be going on sale from May 5, and they will be available on Flipkart, Samsung India e-Store and select offline stores. Both of them also come with a protective layer of Corning Gorilla Glass 5 up front.

The 5.8-inch S8 and the 6.2-inch S8 Plus both have almost 15 percent more display space than last year's comparable models. Even so, it remains ultra crisp and vivid, plus it has the benefit of mobile HDR (high dynamic range) support, which means compatible shows like Stranger Things and House of Cards will look downright spectacular once the Netflix app is updated.

But do you really need these goodies?

Bonny Forrest, a psychologist who appeared on "The O'Reilly Factor " with Walsh, also raised doubts about the allegations. There are several theories floating around the halls of Fox News, according to current and former employees there.

Both also have rounded edges, which is a neat trick.

Experts said the problem could be attributable to the fact that while traditional LCD panels use red, green, and blue, the Super AMOLED adopted by the Galaxy S8 uses two pixels, red-green and blue-green. Kuo believes that Note 8 could exceed iPhone 7 Plus camera performance and match the performance of Apple's rumored iPhone 8 - one of the three expected iPhones for this year.

It's an all-new battle this time around, however, and both handsets are packing improvements. The company has used the old Galaxy S7 camera module for this years' flagship, a 12-megapixel sensor with OIS. But, this is the first time that Samsung has attempted to use this technology.

Kuo explains that the adoption of a dual-camera setup will be "the most important upgrade" in the Note 8.
