After the resounding failure of the Galaxy Note 7 last year, the South Korean technology giant is not only preparing to launch a refurbished version at the end of June but is also continuing to work on its logical successor, the Galaxy Note 8, a new phablet that could arrive in just a couple of months.
According to the South Korean news website The Bell, Samsung could launch its new flagship in terms of phablet category in the middle of next August, coinciding with the period in which its predecessor was released, which did so on August 19 of last year.
In mid-August, to take advantage of the great enemy, the iPhone of 2017
Traditionally, the terminals of Samsung's Galaxy Note line have been presented on the occasion of the IFA conference that takes place in the German capital, Berlin, during the month of September, however, last year the Asian firm decided to break with that tradition and get ahead of this event
Previously it had been speculated that Samsung could take some additional time for the launch of the Galaxy Note 8, that is, beyond the typical twelve month production cycle, in order to ensure that there is no problem but ultimately, it seems that this does not it will be like this and the Galaxy Note 8 will arrive at the expected time. Let's remember that last year its predecessor was withdrawn from circulation twice, the second time permanently, due to problems related to the battery that, in many cases, caused explosions and fires.
But according to posted the middle The Bell, Samsung has decided to "accelerate the launch of the Galaxy Note 8" with the idea of having an advantage over Apple's next iPhone 8, scheduled for mid-September.
According to the rumors that have circulated so far, the Galaxy Note 8 is expected to arrive with a 6,3 or 6,4 inch curved screen, snapdragon 836 processor Qualcomm and a 13 MP dual camera with autofocus. For the moment, the in-display fingerprint sensor has been scrapped.
