14 DAY TRIAL // The fact that Samsung already started work on the new Galaxy Note 8 isn’t a surprise, as some details about the upcoming phone have already surfaced, hinting towards a dual-camera setup on the back. Now, DBS DESIGNING has shared a video featuring a concept of Samsung’s upcoming flagship tablet.
The Galaxy Note 8 must tick a lot of boxes to make sure that it can turn the tables in favor of Samsung and restore consumer trust in the Galaxy Note line, following last year's disaster. Some information about the new phone has already surfaced and the new concept video gives us an idea about the new device’s potential.
The phone portrayed in the video is purely fictional, but some details are based on previous rumors, like the vertical dual-camera setup on the back. The device also appears to have almost unnoticeable bezels on the side and an Infinity Display with Samsung logo at the bottom.
The front panel is quite similar to that of the Galaxy S8, except for the fact that the Note 8 will be larger than the S8+, as the display is rumored to have a size of 6.4 inches and QHD+ resolution. Interestingly, the designer placed the power button and volume down keys on the left side of the device and featured a metal and glass design.
Fingerprint sensor on the back, iris scanner in the front
The fingerprint scanner is featured on the back of the Galaxy Note 8, in a much more comfortable position than on the Galaxy S8. Hopefully, Samsung will find a solution until the Note 8 is out and maybe place the sensor underneath the display.
The concept video comes with some presumable specs for the upcoming device, including 6GB of RAM, 128GB of internal storage, USB Type-C port and a 4,000mAh battery. The dual-camera setup on the back is imagined using 16MP, while the phone appears to come with an iris scanner in the front. A dual-camera setup is visible in the front, with 13MP sensors.
The Galaxy Note 8 could be announced in August, although the IFA chief publicly expressed his desire for the device to make its debut during the event in Berlin. It will be interesting to see if this concept of the Note 8 actually portrays the look of the final retail version.
