News & Reviews:   Samsung Galaxy S8

As the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 incident is winding down, the big bosses in Samsung South Korea must have sat down and decided on a few important things based on the lesson that they have learned so far. One of it is that instead of two flagship lines (Galaxy S & Galaxy Note), the company may be only releasing a single flagship line in 2017.  

While Samsung is facing a big issue about their Galaxy Note 7, on the brighter side of things, a new teaser for the Galaxy S8 revealing the next release date which is 26 February 2017 at MCW 2017 in Barcelona.

Antutu is one of the big names for benchmark usage out there. Currently the highest scoring smartphone on the list is the Apple iPhone 7 Plus, with 172,644. Now however a mystery prototype smartphone had scored almost 20% more when compared to Apple’s newest phablet.

2017 is still some time away, but we are already getting the rumours for the Samsung Galaxy S8. The latest rumour we just received is that the smaller Samsung flagship will be featuring a 4K display, or about 2160 x 3840 pixels for VR applications.

We are still in 2016, and the rumours for next year’s Samsung Galaxy S8 is already out. It has been reported that the next flagship from the Korean company will be using the in-house Exynos 8895, featuring the new Mali-G71 GPU from ARM.

Not much went official this week except for Apple's iOS 10 update, while you can check out if your device supports it we also did a quick first impressions of it on the Apple iPhone 5. You can now officially pre-order your new Sony PS4 for Malaysia as well.

Samsung continues to ask that you send in your Samsung Galaxy Note 7, with only the Xiaomi Redmi 3S Malaysia release date announced. Most other notable news included closer looks at the Apple iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus as they got torture tested and torn down alongside the Apple Watch Series 2.

What a year it has been for Samsung, after releasing multiple devices for a different target audience, we don't think we will be seeing anything new from the company anytime soon, but the rumour mill has leaked once again, this time about Samsung's next flagship the Galaxy S8 series on its release date.

We are still waiting for the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 to be launched, and now news of the next Samsung Galaxy S series is out. The Samsung Galaxy S8 is set to be launched next year, and it is rumoured to be designed around getting DreamVR verification and certification.

Is not even half a year yet for the Samsung Galaxy S7 series and we already starting to read rumours on the next model Galaxy S8, word has it now that the next flagship could feature dual lens camera and a 4K resolution display.

So here's some news, besides from the endless rumours of Apple may be adopting a dual rear camera module, it seems that Samsung is also 'jumping' on the bandwagon too, well, at least to some Chinese sources.
