The Galaxy S8 is a beautiful phone all around. CNET photographer Josh Miller took a series of macro photos to show off some of its tiniest features. For reference, here's a wide shot of the rear showing the S8's camera (center), fingerprint reader (right) and an enclosure containing the flash and a heart rate sensor (left). On the bottom of the flash enclosure are two compartments that make up the heart rate monitor. The bottom half contains two diodes that create a red light which shines through the skin of a finger. The top half has a grouping of four sensors that measure the light reflected back from a blood vessel. These measurements are translated into a frequency to determine your heart rate per minute.
