Samsung Galaxy S8 release is something that you should wait for if you are looking for a promising smartphone. Latest reports claimed that Samsung is putting all its efforts towards the smartphone in order to surpassed the nightmare brought about by the Galaxy Note 7 exploding battery controversy.

Based on rumors, Samsung Galaxy S8 will pack new and improved specs and features, including wireless earbuds, foldable screen, 6GB of RAM, and 256GB of internal storage. However, Samsung is still mum about the details of the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S8.

NSEA Voice claimed that Samsung will need to rebrand its Galaxy Note line in order to sell smartphones again. The exploding battery controversy of the Galaxy Note 7 this year has resulted to a dent in profits as well as negative image on the line.

Due to the immediate discontinuation of Galaxy Note 7, there are rumors flying that Samsung will no longer release a new Note phone in 2017. Rumors claimed that Samsung does not want to damage its image further by releasing a successor of Note 7.

Furthermore, new rumors claimed that a new line will be created in order to fill in the void of Galaxy Note devices. A device coined as Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus surfaced online, which is unlikely since the company may have trouble with the branding with Apple's iPhone 7 Plus.

However, an alleged photo of the device was spotted in China hinting that the device will come with S-Pen stylus. Considering that the Galaxy S8 Plus is rumored to have a 6-inch display, a stylus might indeed come in handy, and the accessory might make the phone more appealing to former Galaxy Note handset owners, according to BGR.

Meanwhile, Samsung Galaxy S8 release is reportedly slated in February 2017 near Mobile World Congress based on the previous releases of Galaxy S line. Nothing is official until the South Korea-based tech company makes a formal announcement.
