Upcoming tri-bezel-less Bluboo S1 often gets compared to the Xiaomi Mi Mix, because it's clearly a phone heavily influenced and inspired by this model. Bluboo brass think that the S1 can offer a cheaper alternative to the extremely expensive Xiaomi piece and are not afraid to promote it like that. But what happens when it takes on even heavier weight in Samsung S8 ?

It's quite clear that these phones are from different galaxies hardware-wise, but on the other hand the same can be said about the price. And Bluboo S1 can claim some small victories thanks to higher 90 % screen-to-body ratio or 3500 mAh battery. For the better idea check out the following table with the specs :
