Samsung has started flexing its marketing muscle on the Samsung Galaxy S8/S8+ since its launched. Reviews from international tech blogs have come in and they are mostly positive. Here in the Philippines, we know it is going to sell. But the question that...
Our verdict is very simple. Samsung remains KING with the Galaxy S8/S8+. Going back to our question – is it worth the upgrade? Well, if you have P45,990 why not? It is a good phone you can use for two years. It will definitely get Android O in the future...
