I had a chance to touch and hold the Galaxy S8 and S8+

GOT TO SAY THEY ARE BEAUTIFUL PHONES. IMO, THE MOST BEAUTIFUL EVER. AND PAIR THAT MICRO BEZEL DESIGN WITH A CRAZY AMAZING SCREEN..........WOW. 

For the doubters you need to see it in person and feel it. Pictures don't do it justice.

Hope the iPhone8 at least matches it on hardware design. Frankly the iPhone6, 6s, and 7 has fallen behind hardware design (the way the product looks) compared to Samsung. Kinda sucks.  Apple should have the best designs, but frankly that has not been true since the iPhone6.  have no idea what Ive does, but his iPhone designs have been CRAP lately.

I personally think the iPhone has a better design than any other smartphone, including the S8. Apple makes designs that are timeless. The iPhone 5 design is still great. So great that Apple used the design again in the SE. You could compare it to a design of an older beautiful car. The design doesn't go out of date. If it was beautiful back then, it is beautiful now. 

The problem is that people want something new. People (especially these days) get bored easily, so they want something new and shiny. The iPhone 6s and 7 have basically the same design than the 6. And you called the 6's design beautiful. They didnt need to change the design because it was already great. I think the S8 is too tall and looks a bit funny. And I am shure that Apple will not make a phone that tall and skinny even if they go almost bezeless. Because it doesn't look good. Samsung doesn't do good design.   They do ok. Even their smartwatches were designed by an American company. 

Does anyone else think the S8 is a bit ugly? It's too tall and looks kinda funny. Also I think Sammy is behind in many features such as dual cameras, dual speakers, no force touch on the entire screen. They make a plus model but even that doesn't include these technologies. They are trying to do their own thing but I don't think the design is at all good. The aspect ratio is funny. And what is with the fingerprint scanner? Awkward positioning. Bad design. It is like they are grasping for straws, trying to add some meaningless features to sell more phones. I mean Apple is behind in OLED and wireless, but they have really stepped up their game in everything else. If the iPhone 8 has both the OLED screen and wireless charging, Apple will be miles ahead of Samsung technologically. Not to mention the whole ecosystem, software and the unified experience across their devices. Apple has been slowly implementing all of these technologies and they took their time to do it right. And Apple has the best mobile prosessors in the world. I mean what is soon left in the android world that the iPhone doesn't have? Each year iOS continues to do more and more. I just think Sammy is really falling behind. Even Huawei is making better choices.
