Samsung has practically folded its offering in 2016 following the release of Samsung Galaxy Note 7. As 2016 will end in a couple of months, the next big thing for the tech company will be the Samsung Galaxy S8.

The release of Galaxy S8 will then overshadow the Samsung Galaxy S7 which is now 6 months old. But, most people are now wondering what the upcoming Samsung phablet will carry and the rumors have started buzzing.

The Galaxy S8 is speculated to include a dual camera (a 12 megapixel back and a 9 megapixel front-facing camera) and an iris scanner, similar feature that the Galaxy Note 7 boasted when it hit the market recently, based on the report of Game N' Guide.

If the camera features of Galaxy S8 turns out to be true, it will be a significant upgrade over the 12 megapixel main camera and a 5 megapixel front-snapper seen in the Galaxy S7 and Galaxy Note 7.

The specifications regarding Samsung's next flagship also include a 5-inch handset with a multi-touch super AMOLED screen and speculated to feature 4K resolution.

Tech experts are suggesting that the sought after smartphone from the South Korean tech company could arrive in early 2017. This is due to the fact that previous process of the Galaxy S series was introduced during that period, which will probably be out in March or April. It also completes the 1 year cycle of Galaxy S7, according to Vine Report.

Since Google just finished handing out the OS' final beta phase this month to its registrants, the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S8 may well seem to be pre-installed with the latest Android 7.0 Nougat operating system.

Moreover, the much talked about Samsung smartphone will be equipped with Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 processor, 32/64 gigabyte internal memory expandable up to 128 gigabyte thru microSD card, 4 gigabyte RAM and a 3,600mAh battery, IB Times reported.
