Following the rocky release of the Galaxy Note 7, Samsung are hoping that their next flagship Galaxy model will come out as next year’s top smartphone<\/span><\/p>\n

Here\u00a0are all the Galaxy S8 rumours, pricing and release dates that we know so far<\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

Samsung has a reputation for releasing some of the world’s leading smartphones, and we hardly expect that the Galaxy S8 will be any different. And while we’re still months away from it’s launch, and many of the details are still speculation, we do know a few juicy details that we can look forward to:<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

It may be the most gaming-powerful Galaxy model yet<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Firstly, there’s a strong possibility that the Galaxy S8 may drop the Quad-HD display is favour of the more powerful 4K. The thinking\u00a0behind this is that 4K display supports virtual reality much better than Quad-HD, and if we’ve learnt anything this year it’s that the entire gaming and software world is being taken over by VR.<\/p>\n

The Galaxy S8 will also come equipped with either the Snapdragon 830 or the Exynos 8896 processor, both are probably the best CPU’s out there for running the most demanding apps. There will also likely be more RAM thrown in too in order to help with the more powerful processors<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

It could be coming with a dual lens camera\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Dual-lens cameras are all the rage right now, being used on the LG G5, Huawei P9 and the iPhone 7. And after a patent was recently filed by Samsung for new technology, even more people are saying this would be for some kind of dual-camera tech.<\/p>\n

Dual-lens cameras allow you to take clearer, richer photos from different angles and under more strenuous lighting conditions.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

It might be coming sooner than you think\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

While there isn’t an official release date for the S8 yet, we can speculate on when the new Galaxy might be released:<\/p>\n

\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0Galaxy S \u2013 March 2010
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0Galaxy S2 \u2013 February 2011
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0Galaxy S3 \u2013 May 2012
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0Galaxy S4 \u2013 March 2013
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0Galaxy S5 \u2013 February 2014
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0Galaxy S6 \u2013 March 2015
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0Galaxy S7 \u2013 February 2016<\/p>\n

As we can see from the above, we’ve never had to wait longer than March for an international release date.<\/p>\n
