Samsung has unveiled its Galaxy S8 flagship smartphone as it battles to regain the market leadership it lost to Apple after the embarrassing withdrawal of the Note 7s.
Boasting some of the largest wrap-around screens ever made and a new voice assistant, but no home button, the S8 is the South Korean technology company's first new premium phone since its September recall of all Galaxy Note 7 smartphones equipped with fire-prone batteries. Samsung halted their sales in 10 markets, and the phones were banned from aircraft in the United States.
Two versions of the Galaxy S8 have been launched in New York, with 6.2-inch (15.75cm) and 5.8-inch curved screens - the largest to date for Samsung's premium smartphones.
They will go on sale from April 21.
