The Beast mode will be just an excuse when something goes wrong with the phone so they can say that it was abused and you loose your warranty.

      Normal mode just blasts. Beast mode for truly fatal experience. It is indeed going to be a killer phone.

                      So S8 will have to turn a beast mode on to reach iPhone 7 performance. Maybe this could also be the reintroduction of the Benchmark mode shipped with S4, S5 and Note 4 where there is overclockibg for a little time just to give the feeling of having an ultra-fast device. And if the author calls it a beast, when there is just the SoC and amount of RAM known, but things like storage or RAM speed are still missing, it is likely that he has a hang towards Samsung

                          Everybody is on this site just to do some childisch troll job, but nobody sees the real problem. No 3.5m jack is not something to brag about. This companies are getting greedier and greedier, and force users to buy other, more expensive devices, just cause this phones have no normal standard jack. If this goes wider, you should worry about the future and freedom of users and their opinions, and not about how to troll,some gimmick futures.

                            This year more than ever before, it's not an optional for Samsung, but it's an absolute must to make the S8 nothing less than a true Beast. With always in mind, that they'll be competing with fantastic phones such as the Xiaomi Mi Mix & next gen Xiaomi Mi Mix (2), plus all the others. So Samsung simply doesn't have a choice, they must simply unleash a true Beast, nothing less

                              Had beast mode beta on Note 7, its just a big firework and green smoke, very pleasant.

                                    beast mode = bomb mode.

                                    probably overclock or prevents the phone from throttling
