Comparison review

The Galaxy S8 has a general score of 81.7, which is slightly better than Galaxy Note Edge's score of 81.7. The Galaxy S8 design is extremely newer, lighter and just a little thinner than the Galaxy Note Edge. Galaxy Note Edge features a little more vivid display than Galaxy S8, although it has a bit worse pixel quantity per screen inch, a little smaller display and a quite lower 2560 x 1440 resolution.

Galaxy S8 has a very superior storage for applications and games than Samsung Galaxy Note Edge, because it has a slot for external memory cards that supports up to 256 GB and more internal memory. The Samsung Galaxy Note Edge has just a bit better performance than Galaxy S8, because although it has a lower amount of RAM and a lower number of cores , it also counts with a graphics processor.

Samsung Galaxy S8's battery duration is just as good as the Samsung Galaxy Note Edge one. Samsung Galaxy Note Edge shoots slightly better pictures and videos than Samsung Galaxy S8, because although it has a tinier back-facing camera sensor capturing lower quality pictures and a way smaller camera aperture which is not good for low-light photos and videos, and they both have the same 3840x2160 (4K) video resolution and the same video frame rate, the Samsung Galaxy Note Edge also counts with a way more mega pixels back-facing camera.

Despite of being the best phone between the ones we are comparing here, the Galaxy S8 is also a bargain compared to the other phones, making this phone an obvious call.
