A lot has already been leaked about what this new phone will hold for us. <a style=\"color: #00a9c7;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/sciencetech\/article-4070792\/Move-Siri-Samsung-s-AI-assistant-Bixby-used-pre-installed-apps-upcoming-Galaxy-S8.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Read more<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Samsung are aiming to <strong>redefine what makes a phone with the Galaxy S8<\/strong>, so we are expecting major upgrades and improvements. Of course, now any phone that is released, there is more than one size, and Samsung have followed the trend again. Just as they did with their S7 &amp; S7 Edge. <a style=\"color: #00a9c7;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wrappz.com\/personalised-phone-cases\/samsung-cases\/galaxy-s7-edge\">Browse our cases<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/P8nfMzJpxYI\" width=\"100%\" height=\"450px\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h2><a style=\"color: #00a9c7;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wrappz.com\/personalised-phone-cases\/samsung-cases\/galaxy-s8\">Samsung Galaxy S8 cases, get yours for only \u00a314.95<\/a><\/h2>\n<p>One of the phones will have a<strong> 5.8-inch display<\/strong> whereas the other will have a huge <strong>6.2-inch screen<\/strong>.

With a 4K screen display too, it seems it will be the perfect device to watch films and TV shows on the go. The company are aiming to introduce a greater than 90% screen-to-body ratio, compared against the average 80% ratio on other smartphones.

Rumours have suggested it is called the <strong>FS9100 optical fingerprint scanner<\/strong>. However, we have all heard about fingerprint scanners from Samsung\u2019s strongest competitor, Apple. But it is claimed that this scanner is much more <strong>advanced and important<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Supposedly, you can scan your finger through <strong>1mm of full cover glass<\/strong>, allowing Samsung\u2019s designers to hide the scanner underneath the glass rather than a button. This also supports the rumours of an all body screen.<\/p>\n<h3>Read More: <a style=\"color: #00a9c7;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/life-style\/science-technology\/772814\/samsung-galaxy-s8-release-date-uk-leaked-video-new-look\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Saumsung Galaxy S8<\/a><\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After a much anticipated launch from Samsung, the release date for the Galaxy S8 has been revealed.
