Samsung Galaxy S8 is one of the most anticipated smartphones of the year.
Unfortunately, it doesn't sound like it's going to be cheap.
The successor to the award-winning Galaxy S7 is rumoured to sport a dual-curved, bezel-less display, iris scanner for additional security, and larger battery cell.
Samsung is expected to pull-out all the stops for its upcoming flagship phone, which was subject to a number of delays following the discontinuation of the Galaxy Note 7 last year.
According to the latest whispers, the Samsung Galaxy S8 will ship in two models – both with a dual-curved, edge-to-edge display.
Samsung Galaxy S8 leaks are taking place pretty much everyday, and now the latest ‘leaked images’ of ‘official S8 cases’ are circulating on Weibo, China’s very own Twitter, where a lot of these photos tend to first make an appearance. The leaked images show two versions of the Galaxy S8; there’s supposed to be a bigger Plus version of the S8 coming as well, according to the reports we’ve seen so far.
The leaked images make two things very apparent: One the fingerprint scanner is being shifted to the back, and won’t be on the front button as has usually been the case with Samsung’s phones. Samsung is believed to be working on an edge-to-edge display, and it looks like there will be no home button, and thus the fingerprint scanner is being shifted to the back, like it is with many other Android smartphones.
