Samsung presents the Galaxy S8 as your perfect travel companion

After having released the Galaxy S8, Samsung has now got down to the business of selling its new flagship smartphone. The initial hype surrounding the new device has subsided so we're seeing the company up its marketing game to get more people to purchase the Galaxy S8.

Samsung has posted a new Galaxy S8 ad on YouTube which showcases how the device can double as your perfect travel companion. The ad highlights some of the great new features that the Galaxy S8 offers, including but not limited to Bixby.

It even points out that the Galaxy S8 has a great camera and that you won't need to carry a separate one with you if you like taking pictures on the go. Granted, you would need an internet connection to get the most out of your Galaxy S8 in a foreign land.

Samsung has also posted another ad for the Galaxy S8 that highlights its virtual reality gaming capabilities. To enjoy those features you would require a Gear VR headset. Galaxy S8 pre-order customers have received a free Gear VR with Controller in several markets while some carriers are also offering the headset for free to customers who pick up the Galaxy S8 even today.
