Samsung is all set to stick with the latest S8 and S8 Plus. But apart from only being pool-friendly, the phone even features a new digital assistant called Bixby, has the latest Snapdragon 835 and facial unlocking feature. Itโ€™s tall and narrow shape which makes it fit snugly within your palm and the curves of this phone are indeed classy.

You will feel like buying them instantly when you see the S8 and S8 Plus in the market.

But LG has high hopes that the slight bump in capacity and wireless charging feature will offset all disadvantages. It has got 2 rear cameras, a tall 5.7 inch display and Google Assistant. G6 is being considered as a flagship phone and it has got a streamlined smooth and aesthetic body design which is impressing most of its users.

The larger iPhone 7Plus has 2 cameras at the back and neither of them have headphone jacks as they have a bluetooth connection with which you have to connect your Bluetooth headset. The iPhone 7 is water-resistant, the camera takes noteworthy good quality pictures, even in low light and adds optical image stabilization feature. The battery too lasts longer and there are times when this is notable enough.
