  • Lekker groot scherm, Prima camera, Meer vrijheid, Notificatieled, Relatief compact, Koptelefoonaansluiting, SD slot, Waterdicht
  • Bigby (knop) waardeloos, Beperkte accuduur, Edge onhandig, Fingerprint onhandig, Interpunctie bij spraakherkenning, Samsung apps, Gevoelige volumeknoppen
  • Ondanks de opmerken en kritiekpunten vind ik het een erg prettig toestel en voor mij fijner dan een iPhone. Ik ben wel benieuwd hoe lang dit duurt. Mijn vorige telefoon had ik bijna 5 jaar en dan valt de afschrijving erg mee. Dit toestel schijnt een updat...

  • De Samsung Galaxy S8 is nog steeds een toptoestel. De accu kan misschien nog iets beter, maar de prestaties, camera en software zijn dik in orde. Ben je op zoek naar een nieuwe smartphone en wil je mijn advies: de S8 is nog steeds een erg goede keuze, ook...

  • Uiterlijk, Prachtig beeldscherm, Bouwkwaliteit en afwerking, Goede camera, Uitbreidbaar geheugen
  • Gevoellig voor valschade, Bloatware
  • DisclaimerNa een dag enthousiast bezig te zijn geweest met het maken van macro-foto’s, bleek dat het glas dat voor de camera van mijn Galaxy S5 zat, gebroken. Het was alsof er iemand met een centerpunt een ferme klap op had gegeven, waardoor de camera van...

  • Infinity display, Mooi scherm, Geweldige camera, Iris/gezichtscanner, 64GB en uitbreidbare opslag, Stofen waterdicht
  • Vingerscanner zit op verkeerde plek, Bij veel licht is de iris/gezichtscanner onbruikbaar
  • SelfieMet het geweldige infinity display speel je de prachtigste natuurfilms in Quad HD (2960 x 1440 pixels) af. Nog belangrijker voor sommigen is de selfie camera die dit keer voorzien is van een 8 megapixels camera met een diafragma van F 1,7 (de openin...

  • "Oneindig" scherm, Werking interface, Cameraresultaten
  • Opdringen van Bixby, Plaatsing vingerafdrukscanner
  • Het beeldscherm van de Samsung S8 is natuurlijk zijn grote aantrekkingskracht. Een telefoon met zo min mogelijk ruimte rondom het scherm wordt door velen als het ultieme doel beschouwd, maar of een scherm met een vooralsnog onorthodoxe verhouding, zoals o...

  • Weergaloos scherm, Erg goede camera, Razendsnel,
  • Die verrekte Bixby-knop, Onhandig geplaatste vingerafdrukscanner,
  • De Samsung Galaxy S8 is een erg goede smartphone. Zoveel is duidelijk. Er zijn een paar kleine kritiekpunten die maar nauwelijks afdoen aan het overheersende gevoel dat je hebt als dit toestel gebruikt: dit is de toekomst van smartphones. Dankzij het Infi...

  • Prachtig design en display, Goede prestaties, Toegankelijke en fijne software
  • Niet de meest krachtige accu, Te smal voor mensen met grote handen, Plaatsing vingerafdruklezer
  • De Samsung Galaxy S8 is een ontzettend mooi ontworpen smartphone en zet een nieuwe standaard neer voor phablets. De fabrikant laten zien dat die apparaten echt niet grof en log hoeven te zijn, terwijl er aan de andere kant niets wordt ingeleverd op kracht...

  • De Galaxy S8 en Galaxy S8+ doen hun zeer hoge prijskaartje alle eer aan: ze hebben alle snufjes die je maar wensen kunt, presteren enorm goed en de accu houdt het vrij lang uit. Of je zoveel geld wil uitgeven aan een smartphone, is een heel andere kwestie...

  • Prachtige kleuren, Instelopties, Detail, Sterk bij weinig licht, All-round goed
  • Bixby- en filterknoppen, Kleuren soms wat verzadigd
  • Wanneer je een smartphone zoekt met de beste camera, dan kom je vandaag de dag uit bij de Galaxy S8 of de iPhone 7 Plus. Hierbij gaat een lichte voorkeur uit naar eerstgenoemde, omdat de camera net even wat levendigere foto’s maakt en meer instelmogelijkh...
