Cast your mind back to September, 2016. A revolutionary plus-sized smartphone hit the shelves, only to be recalled a couple of months later. Yes, we're talking about the Galaxy Note 7. There's no denying that the debacle could have had a catastrophic effect on the firm's reputation, but it didn't.

Samsung worked tirelessly to handle the entire fiasco professionally, introducing an extensive 8-Point Battery Safety Check to restore confidence from consumers, then later releasing the Galaxy S8, a handset that—unsurprisingly—went on to set a number of pre-order records.
Even though we're a big fan of the recently-released Galaxy Note 8, we're in agreement with TechRadar: The Galaxy S8 is the Phone of the Year. It's durable, innovative, powerful, stunning and, most importantly, affordable. What more could you possibly want?
