Samsung Galaxy S8 : what we know about the two models – Frandroid

After a year, rather successfully on the side of the smartphones, despite the release disaster of the Galaxy Note 7, the giant will now turn to 2017, which will begin by the announcement of the Galaxy S8. This folder brings together all the information about the new flagship of the Korean. It will be updated progressively.

Samsung Galaxy S7 (1 of 1)

Since the release of the Galaxy S6 in 2015 the Samsung impresses us by the quality of the design of their phones, but also performance quality of camera or screen. The Korean giant seems to dominate the market of Android smartphone and take head to Apple, at least on the quality and design of its products. After the Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S7 successful and even other phones such as the Galaxy A5 (2016) or the Galaxy Note 7, it is only normal to be eager to know more about the Samsung Galaxy S8.

output accelerated in order to forget the Galaxy Note 7 ?

In 2015, Samsung has made the choice to announce its Galaxy S7 at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona at the end of the month of February. It was thought that for the Galaxy S8 Samsung was to adopt the same strategy, but an unexpected event could change the plans of the Korean.

The launch catastrophic to the Galaxy Note 7, the victim of a battery problem, has been losing a lot of money to Samsung who has had to arrange a callback international smartphone. This launch was also losing a lot in brand image of Samsung, the information having toured the world for a month.

according To several analysts, the giant could advance the release of the Galaxy S8 to quickly forget this failure and start a new campaign. We hope that Samsung does will press not too much to get out of his new flagship. It is this eagerness to get out to the Galaxy Note 7, that would have been a problem with its design.

Two sizes of the curved screen

From 2015, Samsung offers two variants of its model Galaxy S. The first, either the Galaxy S6 or S7, is proposed with a flat-screen tv classic, while the second, the Galaxy S6 Edge or S7 Edge uses a curved screen that Samsung has the secret. If the Galaxy S7 Edge had a screen and a battery a little larger than the Galaxy S7 classic, the two smartphones were relatively close.

For the Galaxy S8, Samsung should continue to offer two models with screen sizes different, 5.1 and 5.5 inches, but the two should use a curved screen. As for the Galaxy Note 5, the phone should therefore lose the mark Edge, as it will not be necessary to differentiate it from the kind.

in order To continue improving the virtual reality experience with Samsung Gear VR, the manufacturer informs its new smartphone screen 4K UHD. As for Sony, for saving energy, Samsung could not display all the content in 4K, including the menus of Android, but just photos, virtual reality, and video.

A model with 256 Gb of storage ?

This year, Apple finally decided to increase the storage of your iPhone from 16 Gb, no micro SD, up to 32 Gb. IPhones the most expensive is therefore increased from 64 to 128 Gb and of 128 to 256 Gb. Samsung, never wants to leave a length ahead at Apple could incorporate chips UFS 2.0 256 Gb in the Galaxy S8. Well, this is a subsidiary of Samsung product precisely in these chips in mass for the month of February 2016 for "the future generation of mobile devices top of the range".

The USB port-C of the Galaxy Note 7

This new generation of storage and propose a sequential throughput to an impressive 850 Mb/s. so that the user can transfer files with this rate, Samsung will probably use a USB Type-C with USB 3.0. A port that is already used in the Galaxy Note 7 and is compatible with the new Samsung Gear VR.

Samsung Exynos 8895 inside

You will have understood, the first rumors regarding the Galaxy S8 will come in made of the other subsidiaries of Samsung supply components to the manufacturer as the screen, the storage or the processor. In Europe, the Galaxy S8 should again embark on a Exynos processor of Samsung. The CDMA model, used in the United States and some other countries, should it use the Snapdragon 830 Qualcomm.

The Samsung Exynos 8895 would use a new process for the etching of 10 nm, and would improve modestly for the part processor, but a lot the graphical part. This last would be nearly 2x more powerful than the Exynos 8890 of the Galaxy S7, thanks to the integration of the ARM Mali-G71. We imagine that other parts of the processor will also be improved, such as the modem 4G that will win a few categories, or the processor of the image processing ISP, which would be 70% faster.
