The iPhone 8 doesn’t deviate too much from Apple's handsets of old. Rather than the drastic design departure of the iPhone X, the iPhone 8 is pretty much bog-standard iPhone fare, there's still the circular home button on the front, equipped with TouchID (which the iPhone X doesn't have) as well as a 4.7in 1,334 x 750 resolution LCD display.
Samsung’s Galaxy S8, on the other hand, is a gorgeous sandwich of glass and metal, curved edges and sumptuous design. It’s curved-screen and curved display corners make it one of the most aesthetically pleasing and strikingly different smartphones on the market. The rear-mounted fingerprint sensor may be in an incredibly awkward position compared to other smartphones, but it does the job well.
In terms of pocket space, the Galaxy S8 comes in at 148.9 x 68.1 x 8mm and weighs 155g. Apple’s iPhone 8 on the other hand, measures 139 x 67.3 x 7.3mm, weighing in at 148g. Apple's handset is smaller and lighter.
