Samsung Galaxy S8 Rumors

Despite the fact the new Galaxy S8 won’t debut until the 2^nd quarter of 2017, this doesn’t mean there isn’t much to tell. We are privy to all the latest and great Samsung Galaxy S8 rumors including the many changes expected with both the standard S8 and the S8 Edge. Sammy is believed to be producing more of the Edge variant as it has quickly become one of the hottest smartphone concepts on the market.

Expect to see a faster processor, more durable glass surround, better features, comparable price, and more functionality with peripherals. With rumors on a 4K display, eye sensing technology, enhanced Android Pay interface, Foldable dual screen and a better functionality between phone and auto.

There were early rumors that Sammy was looking to launch both the S8 and S8 Edge slightly earlier than usual, but this is highly unlikely. Expect the official unveiling at the 2017 MWC event which is likely to set up a launch worldwide starting at the beginning of April. Production is rumored to start earlier than usual which would mean more handsets available on the day of launch. We’re hoping this to hold true as consumer interest for both versions is at an all-time high which could mean long launch delays, especially in smaller markets.

There have been rumours that Samsung Galaxy S8 and S8 edge will be first smartphone of the world which support 5G connectivity. However Now 5G is not available in any country of the world . But in upcoming years some countries of the world lke as The United States and South Korea are planning to launch 5G service. So it will be benefical for people who have Samsung Galaxy S8 or S8 edge. But it is a rumour, So please wait for the official  statement of  Samsung.

The many rumors already in circulation are some of the reasons why many are calling the upcoming Samsung flagships two of the best 2017 smartphones.

We’ve been hearing a lot on the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S8 specs, although nothing has yet to be confirmed.

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. We’ve been hearing about eye sensing technology for quite some time, and it seems that Sammy will be improving the eye scanner that we’ll be seeing in the Galaxy S7. The retina eye scanner in both S8 models will be more responsive and take less time to register.

One of the best additions will be a new, unique glass-like surround. We’re hearing rumors of a much more durable surround that will hold-up much better than the current model. We were hoping to see a waterproof surround that we’ve seen in the rugged Active models, but this isn’t likely based on what we’ve hearing as of now.

Samsung is ready to launch their new smartphone Samsung Galaxy s8. We all Samsung is world famous for making flagship smartphone,So that’s why people are crazy for  the upcoming device of Samsung. Galaxy S8 will have numbers of latest features like as dual camera, Water resistant and much more.

Android Auto is expected to become a standard features in many upcoming cars and trucks which would give consumers the ability to access music playlists, apps, and other features from your phone directly on your car or truck display. Android Pay is also starting to take-off along with Samsung Pay which gives consumers sporting an upcoming Android smartphone the ability to conveniently and safely checkout at many worldwide retailers.

Samsung Galaxy S8 Concept

Sammy has been listening to what consumers are asking for, and everything noted will be seen in the upcoming Galaxy S8 concept. The speed will rival that of any new 2017 smartphone, and all other facets will be getting a bump including more camera features, improved visual display, increased security features, and a better interface with Samsung and 3^rd party apps.

Expect to see more marketing with mobile payment options including Samsung and Android Pay. Apple pioneered mobile payment technology with Apple Pay, but both Samsung and Google are making huge strides and this will be seen once again with the newest flagships.

The durable glass-like surround and the new Corning Gorilla glass will significantly improve both the durability of the screen and outer surround. Expect to see a new, premium glass outer body that will encase both the front and back of both S8 versions.

Samsung hasn’t become known as one of the industries leaders with believing in the idea of maintaining the status quo which leads us into one of the latest rumors on the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S8. They’ve already confirmed that a foldable smartphone is in the works, and could be launched as early as 2017 or 2018. This leads us into one of the latest rumors on the new Samsung Galaxy S8 concept that just may feature a true foldable design.

Samsung Galaxy S8 Price

Consumers will be happy to know that the price of Samsung Galaxy S8 will be competitive for smartphone lovers. Samsung confirm that the price of Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8 edge will slightly high than Galaxy S7 &S7 edge. So it is a good news for people which are waiting for galaxy S8 & Galaxy S8 edge.

As we all know Samsung always provide numbers of new features to their customers in latest smartphones and now Samsung is world famous for making quality smartphones. However the price of their phones are very high but people can easily trust on it.

Release date prices will be available through full purchase, carrier two year contracts, and installment pricing which will vary by carrier. We have come to expect new and renewal two year contract pricing through most of the top carriers worldwide, but many including those here in the US are moving away from contracts in-place of installment plans.

T-Mobile was the first of the big four to do so, and Verizon, AT&T, and Sprint will all be following suit in the coming years. This bodes well for consumers as the initial contract price of the GS8 could be as high as $299 with the premium S8 Edge being as high as $349. Installment prices such as AT&T’s Next would call for no money down, and a monthly price for a period of 24 months around $35/month.

We’ll update you on the official launch prices specific to carriers worldwide as soon as we get it. The latest rumors on what to expect worldwide can be seen in the table below which is broken down by the release date price for many markets worldwide.

All of the top carriers worldwide will be starting taking Samsung Galaxy S8 preorders about two weeks before the actual launch, and those who are looking to secure a handset first may want to consider this.

The Galaxy S series has become one of the top smartphone models of all-time, and one of the most consistent in recent years. Preorders, 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.

Samsung is likely to stick with the same annual release date for both of their upcoming flagships in 2017 including both the GS8 and GS8 Edge. Both will be launched globally on the same day with those in Asia getting being the luckiest to see them first. The latest Samsung Galaxy S8 release date rumors suggest those in South Korea, China, Japan, and Taiwan will likely see both become available for consumer purchase at the beginning of April. Those in Europe and here in the US will have to wait just a bit longer as the 2^nd to 3^rd week in April 2017 seems to be the most likely.

There are some new rumors that Samsung may even be looking to push up the release date to mid-March with an official announcement that may come as early as early March during the annual MWC event.
