It is also being rumoured that the Exynos 8895 shall hold 3GHz of maximum speed, making it faster to shoot and save images using the Samsung Galaxy S8 compared to the Galaxy S7.
There will be no headphone jack in Galaxy S8
As Apple iPhone 7 comes with no headphone jack same footsteps are being followed by Samsung. It is therefore leaked that Samsung will remove the 3.5 mm headphone jack from the Galaxy S8 and instead use a USB-C port. It is not yet known if Samsung will include a USB-C adapter with the phone. The adapter’s inclusion should definitely make the transition easier for its consumers.
The Galaxy S8 will have a“plus” version
The Samsung Galaxy S8 will supposedly have a “plus” version, which basically means the same unit with a larger display size. The standard version will have 5.1 inches of screen size, while the “plus” version will have 5.5 inches. Another interesting twist is that both versions are rumoured to have “Edge” displays instead of the standard “flat” screens.
The new Samsung Galaxy S8 features will center on increasing security while improving speed, productivity, and making both the S8 and S8 Edge more functional. Samsung will be improving on eye sensing technology. The retina eye scanner in both S8 models will be more responsive and take less time to register.
If you pre-order either the Galaxy S8 or Galaxy S8 Edge you will have the best chance of securing a handset on the day of launch, and considering the enormous consumer interest there’s likely to be significant launch delays. The Galaxy S series has become one of the top smartphone models of all-time, and one of the most consistent in recent years.
Pre-orders, whether online or in-store will also allow some in larger markets to get their hands on their new phone up to a couple of days before those who elect to purchase on the date of launch. All of the top carriers in Australia and worldwide will be starting taking Samsung Galaxy S8 pre-orders about two weeks before the actual launch, and those who are looking to secure a handset first may want to consider this. Till then wait for more information and keep yourself updated.
