SAMSUNG Electronics Co Ltd unveiled its Galaxy S8 flagship smartphone as it battles to regain the market leadership it lost to Apple Inc after the embarrassing withdrawal of the fire-prone Note 7s.
Boasting some of the largest wraparound screens ever made, the long-awaited S8 is the South Korean tech giant's first new premium phone since the Note 7 debacle in October, which wiped out US$5.48 billion of profit and helped Apple overtake Samsung as the world's top smartphone maker in the fourth quarter.
