The Note 7 has caused major headaches for Samsung. Now discontinued, fans are looking forward to the Note 8, which has not been dropped by Samsung and is apparently codenamed Great (not Baikal as previously thought). We investigate when is the Note 8 coming out, plus all the details you want to know about Samsung's next phablet.
The Galaxy S8 will launch at an Unpacked event on 29 March and go on sale in April. Contrary to previous reports we aren't expecting it to come with an S Pen stylus, which means it will compete with the Galaxy Note 7 only on size: with a 5.8inch screen as standard and 6.2inch rumoured for the Galaxy S8+, the Note 7's 5.7inch screen is comparatively small.
Specs and news- 5.7inch 4K Super AMOLED display
- S Pen support
- Improved iris scanner
- Built-in 'Bizby' AI assistant
-Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 chipset, 6GB RAM
- USB type-C
- Android 7.0 Nougat
-IP68 certification
However, we'd expect Samsung to make the same design changes in the Note 8 in response, which means we'll see a larger, taller and potentially pressure-sensitive screen, with the fingerprint scanner moved to the rear and the home button gone altogether. You can also expect it, as usual, to be faster than the Galaxy S8.
This Galaxy Note 8 is not to be confused with the Galaxy Note 8.0 tablet from back in 2013.
