The new devices were instantly in the spotlight, with a lot of deserved praises.

Despite only sporting a single speaker at the bottom of the phone, it still managed to sound significantly clearer and louder without distortion. That is the result after testing itself against S7 Edge or LG V20. So, the speaker, despite not widely advertised, is actually really good. Secondly, being able to zoom in the camera app is quite pleasant as well. Normally, you have to use both hands, one to hold the camera, and one to pinch to zoom. Now, with S8, you can slide the shutter button up and down (or left to right in portrait mode) to zoom in and out, simple as that. Those are some nice Galaxy S8 features!<\/p>\n<p>Another nice one among unannounced Galaxy S8 features is the fingerprint swipe gestures for notifications. Actually, this was first implemented in the Google Pixel, where you swipe down on the fingerprint sensor to open notification panel, swipe down one more to expand it, and swipe up to close. This feature has been implemented in the new Galaxy S8 as well, excluding the second swiping down gesture. However, that is not much of a burden to most users.<\/p><div style=\"float: none; display: block; margin: 0 -10px; text-align: center;\"><!-- ph_pricepony_article_incontent_1 -->\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n     style=\"display:inline-block;width:336px;height:280px\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4796993490224996\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"7528541080\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n<!-- ph_pricepony_article_incontent_2 -->\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n     style=\"display:inline-block;width:336px;height:280px\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4796993490224996\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"2964262507\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n<\/div><\/p>\n<p><picture><source srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pricepony.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Samsung-Galaxy-S8-image-1-e1494329881186.webp \"  type=\"image\/webp\"><img src=\"https:\/\/www.pricepony.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Samsung-Galaxy-S8-image-1-e1494329881186.jpg\" height=\"250\" width=\"476\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-44903 sp-no-webp\" alt=\"Galaxy S8 features\" decoding=\"async\"  > <\/picture><\/p>\n<p>Next is the default launcher. This can be considered one of the best Galaxy S8 features, as the new default launcher looks not only beautiful, but also good in functionality as well. There are also some unique aspect of the launcher not found on any other like new weather widget, which fits perfectly with the Always-on Display. Last but not least is the new home button. It is now embedded under the screen, and still works wonderfully well. Pushing the home button when in a full-screen app will take you straight back home too, so you don&#8217;t need to swipe up anymore. The new Samsung flagship truly has some great unannounced features!<\/p>\n<h3>Galaxy S8 features: Going great with the device!<\/h3>\n<p>The new Galaxy S8 not only has good specs, but also good features as well, like those above. Samsung Galaxy S8 price starts at Rs. 57,900.
