When it comes with the specs and features, Phone Arena noted that the Samsung Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8 Plus will feature a Super AMOLED display with a resolution of 1440 x 2560. These two flagship smartphones will be engineered by either the Snapdragon 835 chipset or the Exynos 8895 SoC depending on the country.
