While Samsung is busy preparing for the launch of its Galaxy Note 8 smartphone that is scheduled to be launched on August 23rd, another Samsung smartphone has been spotted on the benchmarking website, Geekbench.
An absolute beast device
As per the listing discovered on Geekbench, it is safe to assume that the Samsung-branded smartphone – with model number SM-N950F – will be powered by the Exynos 8895 processor. It is worth noting that the Exynos 8895 processor is the same as what appeared in one of the Galaxy S8 variants. Furthermore, the smartphone also boasts of 6GB of Ram.
If reports are believed to be true, then the latest spotting is understood to be one of Galaxy Note 8 variants.
Rumored features and specs
Samsung earlier this month confirmed that they would be introducing the Galaxy Note 8 smartphone on August 23rd, at its ‘Unpacked’ event. The device will be similar to the company’s Galaxy S8 and S8 Plus smartphones in many ways – yet, will carry a few key differences that will enable it to stand apart.
The upcoming smartphone is going to come packed with a 6-inch Infinity display, 6GB RAM, 64GB of internal storage, and will probably be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 system-on-chip. It appears as the company will also be introducing another Galaxy Note 8 variant that will be powered by the Exynos 8895 chipset.
The company carried out the same deed with Galaxy S8 and S8 Plus smartphones back when they were introduced at the MWC, 2017 event scheduled in Barcelona in February this year.
Apart from this, the Galaxy Note 8 smartphone is further expected to come along with a dual rear camera setup – another key difference that it sports in comparison to the already-prevailing Galaxy S8 and S8 Plus smartphones.
The device’s sensors will pack two 12-megapixels on the rear end, while the front shooter will probably come along with an 8-megapixel shooter.
The smartphone is going to pack a decent 3,000mAh battery since Samsung doesn’t want to experiment with batteries this year for obvious reasons. The company did not particularly have a good time last year, thanks to the Galaxy Note 7 fiasco.
The smartphone is further expected to run on the latest Android 7.1.1 Nougat operating system and will feature a fingerprint scanner alongside the Bixby digital voice assistant button on the rear panel and the sides respectively. Stay tuned for the latest on smartphones.
