Samsung Galaxy Note 8’s news, rumors, leaks and concept designs are all over the internet. Samsung supporters and tech enthusiasts predict that the smartphone will have impressive specs compared to the Galaxy S8 and the previous fire-prone Galaxy Note 7. The company is expected to launch the smartphone on August 23, 2017 in a New York City event.
Impressive futuristic cameras
LG Corporation and Apple are not the only ones that are aiming to deliver impressive and futuristic cameras on its smartphones. According to a report from Android Authority, Samsung is putting its most impressive camera on the Galaxy Note 8.
The upcoming device will sport a 12-megapixel optical-lens camera with dual-image pixel sensor and a 13-megapixel telephoto lens. The said camera would also include OIS (optical image stabilization) and 3x optical zoom support.
Dual-lens camera technology is not new to smartphones anymore. In fact, it is the new trend nowadays. Apple’s iPhone 7 Plus and the new OnePlus 5 were built with dual-lens cameras, and these smartphones are a huge hit in the market. Samsung is aiming to make a complete optical zoom function on its Galaxy Note 8 camera that could rival the iPhone 7 Plus.
Smartphone's specs and features
The Samsung Galaxy Note 8 is rumored to feature a massive 6.3-inch screen that comes with an infinity display.
The display screen might come with a sharp 2960 x 1440 resolution, which makes the smartphone perfect for watching TV shows, movies, and especially gaming.
The Note 8 will have a new and improved stylus pen. The S-pen is said to sport a built-in tracking technology that will work with the company’s new application called “Find My Mobile.” This new application will help users to locate their smartphones in case it is misplaced.
According to a report from CNET, Samsung might also include some freebies for the Note 8 buyers. The freebie could be a Samsung Gear virtual reality headset.
The upcoming smartphone will feature 6GB of RAM and 256 internal storage capacity. It will be powered by the latest Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 835 processor. The company will be using a 3,300 mAh battery cell.
It is a bit smaller compared to Galaxy S8 Plus’ 3,500mAh battery. It seems like the company is playing safe and making sure that the upcoming device will not have any battery issues just like what happened to the disastrous Galaxy Note 7. The Note 8 will also feature a wireless charging technology.
