It is also likely that the upcoming iteration will have a dual-camera lens, since the technology is increasing in popularity. Samsung Galaxy S8 is also rumored to have a microSD card slot and storage options of 64 GB and 128 GB.

As for the release date, it is expected that Samsung Galaxy S8 will be out sometime in April 2017. The tech giant is also likely to unveil the smartphone at the Mobile World Congres, which will run from Feb. 27 to Mar. 2.

Although Samsung is known to introduce new products at the said event, it remains to be seen if the Samsung Galaxy S8 will indeed make it by that time. Fans should still take the reports with a grain of salt until the company itself makes the formal announcement. So far, the company has been silent about the device.
