Final Words

Final Words

Now, I have to admit that I have been praising the Galaxy S8+ for most the part of this review because the overall user experience is very positive. Just to name a few – excellent build quality with an immersive display, responsive camera with great image quality, and great performance with reasonable battery life.

Of course, the S8+ is very close being perfect, at least with the following cons:

  • Awkward placement of fingerprint scanner, by far this is probably the most critical flaw of the phone because I can say that almost everyone got the fingerprint scanner placement right. There’s no reason for this to happen on a smartphone giant as big as Samsung.
  • At RM 3699, that’s really a steep price for this phone. On top of that, you still have to fork out extra to purchase a protective case. Seriously, you don’t want to drop this phone.

If you were to ask me if I would buy this phone for personal use, my answer is definitely yes. Someone care to send me RM 3699?
