The rumored design of Galaxy Note 8
Alleged images of the Galaxy Note 8 show the device has minimum bezels on the top and bottom and the sides.
A horizontal dual 12MP camera setup is seen on the rear panel, where a fingerprint scanner can also be spotted.
It would have a USB Type-C port, S-Pen slot, speaker grills, and a 3.5mm audio slot at the bottom.
The Big Size
Is the phablet going to be that big?
The latest leaks suggest Galaxy Note 8 may not actually be as big in size as Samsung wants people to believe.
It is expected to sport a 6.4-inch display, which could be the largest ever on a premium smartphone from the house of Samsung.
However, the rumored display is only slightly bigger compared to the Galaxy S8 Plus's 6.3-inch display.
Information
Why is Galaxy Note 8 important?
Galaxy Note 8 is quite important for the South Korean company. It needs to get this device right considering the Note 7 fiasco last year. Only a few days after launch, a series of explosion incidents halted the Note 7's production and distribution.
