Samsung Galaxy S8+ is the Galaxy S8's variant with a larger screen size measuring at 6.2 inches. The flagship for Samsung in 2017 has gained immense popularity. Iris scanner, 360 degree camera support and AMOLED display are few of the several features that any other smartphone fails to offer.

Samasung had disclosed that the Galaxy S8 had recorded a sale of 5 million units in just a few weeks after launch. By the end of June Samsung hopes to reach a figure of 20 million units.

It was a bold move from Samsung to release its flagship with iPhone 8 release right around the corner. The boldness seems to have paid off well enough.
