The Samsung Galaxy S8 has finally been launched and… well, it’s entirely as we expected thanks to the myriad leaks that sprung up all over the internet in the preceding months.

But the good news is that it’s a rather nifty phone, and you can check it out in some rather sumptuous depth in our hands-on: Samsung Galaxy S8 review to get all the morsels of information you could want on Samsung’s new flagship. 

We know that some of you are in more of a rush though, and just want to know what’s new and whether you should care about the new Samsung phone – and no, before you ask (and we have been asked countless times): it’s not going to catch fire this time. Samsung has been very clear about that. 

What it will do is impress you with the large display, faster innards and all-round improvements throughout the user interface – so if you’re not going to check out our thorough and filled-with-beautiful-photos Samsung Galaxy S8 hands-on (the plugs will only get more shameless) we’ve rounded up all the salient information here.
