Forget the Galaxy Note 8 – Samsung Galaxy S8 price slashed to new low

All eyes are on  new at a huge Unpacked event in New York.

This updated flagship now includes a host of exciting new features including a giant 6.3-inch curved display, refreshed S Pen and faster processor.

There’s also a dual-lens camera on the rear of the device which can zoom and add depth of field effects to images taken on the device..

This is the first time a flagship smartphone from Samsung has included this latest photographic technology.

These updates and upgrades make the Note 8 one of the best smartphones of the year, even eclipsing the stunning Galaxy S8.

However, there is one big issue with the Note 8 which could make still make the older S8 a very attractive option – that’s its price.

The Note 8 will cost £869 making it the most expensive Galaxy ever.

Meanwhile, the S8 has just received another major price cut with the device now costing just £29 per month on 24-month contract.

The deal, from Mobiles.co.uk, offers unlimited calls/texts and 4GB of data with a £100 upfront cost.

Amazon has also slashed the price of the S8 with the device now costing £549.99 SIM-Free.

That’s a saving of over £130 off the original cost.

The S8 doesn’t include a dual-lens camera or S Pen but it’s clearly a lot less damaging to your bank account.

If you’re still holding out to see what the Note 8 has to offer, Samsung’s big Unpacked event kicks off at 4pm.
