Samsung Galaxy S8 Active review

The Galaxy S8 Active is a ruggedized version of the Samsung Galaxy S8. It also does not water down specs or skimp on features over the standard model. A 5.8" Super AMOLED display with a QHD+ (1440 x 2960 px) resolution with the same 18.5:9 aspect ratio of Samsung's Infinity display.

The Galaxy S8 Active has excellent viewing angles and bright, vivid colors that are pleasing to the eye or accurate colors where you need them.read more →
  • Great battery life
  • Can take a beating
  • Same excellent camera as the S8
  • Programmable Activity Key is now Bixby Key

Samsung Galaxy S8 Active Review

The Galaxy S8 Active endeavors to do something really no smartphone does today. Taking top-of-the-line technology and melding it with externals that come as close to indestructible as any pocket-device feasibly can is no small feat, but it’s easy to see how this can be taken for granted. The S8 Active doesn’t appear to have a very hard job. Thicken the metal, add some rubber corners, and a shatter-resistant shield and voilà, right? Well, although Samsung certainly won’t see it like that, it kind of does appear that way.read more →
  • Military standards in durability and resilience
  • Same excellent camera as the S8, excels in low-light and quick focus
  • Squeezes a little more battery life than the original S8
  • Bixby much improved
  • Heavier device than normal S8
  • Camera has a tendency to add a yellowish tint in certain scenes

Samsung Galaxy S8 Active Review

The Galaxy S8 Active is a great phone, but if battery life isn’t your top concern, you’ll save money buying a regular Galaxy S8 and a case.read more →
  • Has an all-day battery
  • Has a sturdier body that’s basically a built-in case
  • It keeps the S8’s waterproofing and wireless charging
  • Its flat screen isn’t as sharp as the regular S8's

Samsung Galaxy S8 Active Review

Don't think of the Galaxy S8 Active as a legitimate improvement over the standard GS8 — because it isn't. Think of this as the best-rugged phone choice for those who want something really tough but don't want to compromise on performance, display, camera or other features. Yes, it has a massive improvement in battery life, but in the name of sturdiness, it also loses all of the design that makes the Galaxy S8 so desirable in the first place.read more →
  • Great battery life
  • Can take a beating
  • 'Shatter-resistant' screen
  • Flat screen can be preferable
  • Too big and heavy for most people
  • No particular differentiation outside of casing
  • More expensive than standard
  • GS8 Screen more susceptible to scratches
