Samsung’s Galaxy S8 Release Date Gets Closer

Samsung has always rolled out their newest devices towards the beginning of the year. Right now, it looks like their newest device will be released in April of this year. Samsung has blown us away in the past with many great features and implementations of existing technology, so the release of the S8 is extremely exciting. Right now it looks like it will have a price tag of $850 — which is a steep price, even for Android phones. It’s likely, too, that better deals for the smartphone will exist, thanks to trade-ins and promotions with cell phone service providers.

The S8 Should Quickly Replace the Note 7

There has been some discussion about delaying the release of the S8 in order to further explore the flaws of the Note 7 — specifically, the issue with the Note 7 bursting into flames or exploding. While this issue is said to be a battery-related problem, more recent articles are suggesting otherwise. It’s for this reason that looking into the problem might prove more beneficial to Samsung in the long run.

However, some experts think that Samsung may try to release the phone even sooner, rather than delay, in order to close the gap between the S8’s release and the Note 7’s release. This could help Samsung to quickly pick up and move on: they could put the Note 7’s failures in the past (and out of everyone’s head). A quicker release could also help pull in consumers who are on the fence about getting another Samsung device. That way, Samsung won’t lose their customers to the competition.

What Might the S8 Include?

There are a lot of rumors about what all the S8 might include. It could have a 4K screen, 3D touch, a desktop mode, a much more impressive processor, and an incredible camera. The phone is also likely to be curved.

A Release to Look Forward To

Samsung always makes a huge splash when they release a new device — their devices have been almost as hyped and coveted as Apple’s new devices. When it comes to high tech devices, it’s definitely exciting that the rest of the market will soon have a good basis for where the industry is heading. Samsung has always done a great job at creating innovative products, while also creating compact and sleek devices. Hopefully, they’ll get the flammable issues behind them with the release of the S8.
