Android Wars

As Samsung launches its new Galaxy smartphone for the year, there are a few different dynamics this time around compared to previous cycles. We're not just talking about the still-lingering ghosts of the fire-prone Galaxy Note 7. There's also a major change in the market, in the form of a new competitor: Google and its premium Pixel smartphone. While the new Galaxy S8 is poised to appeal to legions of users, the Google Pixel may prove to be a bigger threat to Samsung than even the Apple iPhone 7 since the Pixel, of course, runs Android just like the Galaxy S8.

Which of the premium Android phones is a better fit for you? In the following slides, the CRN Test Center lays out how Samsung's Galaxy S8 compares vs. the Google Pixel on specs and price.
