Samsung Galaxy S8 renders leaked again: Is this official?

We have had a major leak about the Samsung Galaxy S8 recently, and now we might already be looking at an official press render of the device as shared by tipster Slash Leaks. The new image is the first good look that we are getting of the S8.




The shared image appears to be an official render of the phone from Samsung, but there is no confirmation for the same. It shows the thin bezels on the top and bottom of the phone, and dual-curved edge display. With the home button gone, the back of the device is now sporting the fingerprint scanner placed next to the camera sensor – an unseen location for the same as of yet.

Noted tipster, Evan Blass recently shared details about the Galaxy S8 in a report suggesting that the 2017 flagship will be coming in two screen (QHD Super AMOLED) sizes – 5.8-inch and 6.2-inch. The phones will have an unusual aspect ratio for the display at 18.5:9, with both models getting the ‘edge’ design.

According to Blass, Galaxy S8 will be coming with 4GB RAM and 64GB of storage that can be expanded via microSD. The 5.8-inch Galaxy S8 will be backed by a 3000 mAh battery, while the larger device will be getting 3500 mAh of backup.
