We all have seen the Galaxy S8 at the launch event. The Galaxy S8 renders slimmer but bigger S7 edge with discarding Home button from the front panel. However, from a long time, we are also hearing for a foldable Galaxy Smartphone but we don’t think it’s going to happen soon in future. The recently launched Galaxy S8+ design is one of the perfect design so far. You can check out both Samsung Galaxy S8 Images below.
So, at last, there will be no flexible display, no 4k resolution. But still it worth buying a smartphone. Let’s see what users have to say about it. Do comment down your thought over it.
Samsung Galaxy S8 Rumours:
Samsung comes up with 5.8 inches for Galaxy S8 and bigger 6.2-inch display for Galaxy S8+ variant. Both phones will have 1440 x 2960 pixels resolution and firmly protected by Gorilla Glass 5. It will also have IP68 water and dust resistance. Now, you can use your smartphone into the water as well. Samsung offers amazing colors and contrasts with its New AMOLED display and we are quite sure you are going to love it.
Apart from the display features, it has 4GB RAM which remains same from S7 Edge. The phone runs on Snapdragon 835 / Exynos 8895 processor. This year finally we have a 10nm chipset for Galaxy phone. The phone runs amazingly fast and offers great productivity as well.
Samsung Galaxy S7 is a beautiful device with having AMOLED surface but future is much better. The S8 will have New AMOLED display having 2k resolution. We have waited a lot to see 4k resolution display and this season rumors are at its peak. But launching Galaxy S8 with1440 x 2960 pixels isn’t a bad move at all. It offers great colors, feels good and does all the stuff with an ease. Samsung Galaxy S8 may have increased body to display ratio to 90% which will certainly lead to better design.
