Overview
Galaxy S8 Midnight Black
Introducing the stunning Infinity Display
The revolutionary design of the Galaxy S8 and S8+ begins from the inside out.
We rethought every part of the phone's layout to break through the confines of
the smartphone screen. So all you see is pure content and virtually no bezel.
It's the biggest, most immersive screen on a Galaxy smartphone of this size. And
it's easy to hold in one hand.
Design
Boundaries removed
The Infinity Display has an incredible end-to-end screen that spills over the
phones sides, forming a completely smooth, continuous surface with no bumps or
angles. Its 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.
Immerse yourself in a bigger view that still fits comfortably in your hand.
Galaxy S8 and S8+ break free from the confines of bezels, offering a smooth,
uninterrupted surface that flows seamlessly over the edges. To do this, we
completely redesigned the phone from the inside out. And we embedded the home
button under the screen, where it stays hidden until you need it. So you get a
bigger, unobstructed view without a larger phone.
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 and S8+ feel small in your hand,
making them easy to hold and use.
The big screen that feelsd 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 both
the Galaxy S8 and S8+.
Sleek all around
Complementing the uniform front is the equally smooth silhouette on the back.
The rear camera sits almost entirely flush with the surface for a visually
tranquil profile.
Take your pick
With several color options in two sizes, there's a Galaxy S8 or S8+ for
everyone. Go big or standard, go gold or silverthe choice is entirely yours.
More screen means more is seen
Be it movies or games, you'll get drawn into the action on the Galaxy S8 and
S8+ screens. Not only are they the biggest, most immersive displays for Galaxy
smartphones of these sizes, with the 18.5:9 display ratio, you get the whole
scene on your screen.
Galaxy S8+ - 529 ppi
*Infinity Display: a bezel-less, full-frontal, edge-to-edge screen.
*Default resolution is Full HD+ and can be changed to Quad HD+ (WQHD+) in
Settings.
*Screen measured diagonally as a full rectangle without accounting for the
rounded corners.
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
The new navigation keys are no different from the physical ones you're used
to. Only they're now beautifully inconspicuousuntil 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 and 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.

Security
We care deeply about your privacy. So we put in place effective mechanisms
that prevent unwanted snooping, while making it surprisingly convenient for you.
There's iris scanning for airtight security, face recognition for unlocking your
phone right away, and defense-grade security that stands guard around the clock.
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.
Face Recognition
Fingerprint
Pattern
Password
PIN
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 and S8+ come with
three easy ways to unlock your phone.
Iris Scanner
Open with your eyes
Hold up your Galaxy S8 or S8+ and align your eyes with the twin circles
on-screen to scan your irises. Your phone is unlocked with a look.
Face Recognition
Open with your face
Raise your phone as if taking a selfie to use face recognition. It's a fast
and effortless way to unlock your Galaxy S8 or S8+.
*Face recognition is less secure than pattern, PIN, or password.
Fingerprint Scanner
Open with a touch
As you pick up your Galaxy S8 or S8+, your finger goes naturally to the
fingerprint sensor on the back and it's unlocked in one seamless move. You don't
even have to wake up the phone first.
Convenient and safe
Some of the most sensitive activities like paying with your credit or debit
card and accessing bank accounts is fast, easy, and secure on your Galaxy S8 or
S8+ with its selection of authentication options, including biometric
verification. Scan your irises or fingerprint to make purchases with Samsung Pay
in-store, check your bank accounts via Samsung Pass, and log into your favorite
sites right away with the Web sign-in feature. Keep private files and apps
separately in the Secure Folder to keep them accessible only to you.
