Samsung Galaxy S8 tops US consumer review
[THE INVESTOR] Samsung Electronics’ Galaxy S8 topped the list of the best-performing smartphones reviewed by a US consumer magazine, industry sources said on Oct. 17.
According to the report released by Consumer Reports, the Galaxy S8 and the Galaxy S8 Plus released early this year took the first and second spots, respectively, in terms of performances among smartphones released in the US market.
The latest result is significant as Samsung‘s flagship devices dwarfed US tech giant Apple’s latest iPhone 8 Plus and iPhone 8, which were ranked in the fourth and fifth spot, respectively.
Samsung‘s Galaxy S7, released last year, claimed the third spot, the report showed.
Industry watchers, however, said Samsung cannot only cheer the result as its Galaxy Note 8 phablet released in September was in sixth place.
