Samsung Galaxy S8
The world’s first Infinity Screen

The Galaxy S8 expansive display stretches from edge to edge, giving you the most amount of screen in the least amount of space. And the Galaxy S8+ is even more expansive—our biggest screen yet.
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.
Security that's foolproof

Prying eyes are not a problem when you have iris scanning on the Galaxy S8 and S8+. Your irises have patterns that are unique to you, and they're 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, face recognition is a handy option.
Faster, even in rain

You never really stop using your phone. That's why Galaxy S8 and S8+ are driven by the world's first 10nm processor. It's fast and powerful and increases battery efficiency. Plus, there's the ability to expand storage, and to work through rain and dust with IP68-rated performance.
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're never confined to one mode of communication. It also completely changes the way you use your phone. You don't even have to ask Bixby, just show it what you want by opening your camera app. It's so incredibly easy.
The phone that opens up new worlds

The Galaxy S8 and S8+ are designed to be more than just smartphones. They're designed to change how you capture and view your life, whether it's in 360 degrees or in virtual reality. They're designed to change how you pay and work on the go. Break down the barriers in your world with the Galaxy S8 and S8+.
  • Design - boundaries removed

    The Infinity Display has an incredible end-to-end screen that spills over the phone's sides, forming a completely smooth, continuous surface with no bumps or angles. It's pure, pristine, uninterrupted glass. And it takes up the entire front of the phone, flowing seamlessly into the aluminum shell. The result is a beautifully curved, perfectly symmetrical, singular object.
  • Infinity display - beyond the bezel

    The Infinity Display sets a new standard for uninterrupted, immersive experiences. It enables an expanded screen size without necessitating a larger phone. So while the view is grander, Galaxy S8 feels small in your hand, making them easy to hold and use.
  • The big screen that feels small

    You'll immediately notice the comfortable grip of the smooth curves, which allow you to hold on easily while you watch movies on the larger screen. And important shortcuts are a swipe away, as the edge screen is available on Galaxy S8.
  • Sleek all around

    Complementing the uniform front is the equally smooth silhouette on the back. The rear camera sits perfectly flush with the surface for a visually tranquil profile.
  • More screen means more is seen

    Be it movies or games, you'll get drawn into the action on the Galaxy S8 screen. Not only are they the biggest, most immersive displays for mobile devices of these sizes, with the 18.5:9 display ratio, you get the whole scene on your screen.
  • Scroll less, do more

    Text while you watch a movie or make a list while you browse. You're able to multitask efficiently due to the bigger screen, and you can choose what your focus is by easily resizing the windows. And when just one thing has your attention, you'll see more of the article or your social media feed, so you scroll less.
  • Invisible but accessible

    Navigation keys are no different from the physical ones you're used to. Only they're now beautifully inconspicuous - until you need them. The home key is where it normally is, and it works just as usual with a simple press.
  • Styled for the future

    Enjoy seamless navigation on the Galaxy S8 with a sleek and clean interface that aligns beautifully with the smooth Infinity Display. As you unlock from the AOD (Always On Display) and switch between apps, the visual journey on screen is just as striking as the exterior.
  • Selfies done right

    Turn on the selfie camera and take photos that everyone will want to share. Smart Auto Focus tracks faces, so whether you use your arm or a selfie stick, everyone in the shot will be in focus. And enhanced multi-frame image processing keeps all the selfies crisp and clear.
  • Capture the night

    The dark is no match for Galaxy S8's rear camera. The bright F1.7 lens and large 1.4µm pixels bring in more light when there's not enough around. So what you see is what you'll get in the shot.
  • Ready for action

    When you're quick enough to capture the moment, you need a camera that's just as fast and focused - like the Galaxy S8 camera. It focuses as swiftly as your eyes do using its Dual Pixel sensor and bright lens, delivering photos that are crisp and vivid.
  • Memories, crystal clear

    The stars aligned for that picture-perfect moment and with the Galaxy S8 camera, that moment is yours to keep. It uses enhanced image processing, taking multiple shots and combining them into one high-quality photo. All you have to do is press the shutter.
  • Turn pro

    Make full use of the Galaxy S8 superior camera performance by turning on Pro Mode. It gives you the option to adjust any of the six settings: ISO, Shutter speed, Exposure, Color tone, Manual focus, and WB (White Balance).
  • Focus on what matters

    With Selective focus mode you're able to choose the depth of field after taking the shot to choose whichever focus you fancy: foreground, background, or both.
  • Filtered moments

    The right filter can make a photo into a masterpiece. Use the preview option and choose from a range of filters to enhance your picture before you even take the shot.
  • Tasty shots

    Make your food photography stand out from the crowd. Food mode brings out the best in your lunch or dessert for mouthwatering shots.
  • It's easy

    So many features and modes, everything you need to take gorgeous photos is right at your fingertips.
  • Photos from Galaxy S8

    Get inspired or just be impressed by the stunning photos taken by the Galaxy S8.
  • Iris scan

    The patterns in your irises are unique to you and are virtually impossible to replicate, meaning iris authentication is one of the safest ways to keep your phone locked and the contents private.
  • Three hassle-free ways to unlock your phone

    Life is so much easier and simpler without the trouble of having to remember one more password, one more PIN. And that's why the Galaxy S8 comes with three easy ways to unlock your phone.
