Samsung Galaxy Note 8 images leaked ahead of its August 23 launch

Last week, we reported that the Samsung Galaxy Note 8 will be launched at the company's Unpacked 2017 event happening in New York city on August 23. But, we may have something to share with you even before the official launch. Credible tipster Evan Blass has leaked an image of the handset on Twitter that gives you a peek into the next iteration of the disastrous Galaxy Note 7.

The leaked image shows a similar design to Galaxy S8 on the front but suggests that the Galaxy Note 8 will have slightly squarish edges. There isn't much information available about the phone, other than that the display is likely to be bigger than the Galaxy S8+, and that the Note 8 will have dual cameras. We hope Samsung introduces a new take on the two camera tech instead of just doing yet another "it can blur the background around a person's head" (aka bokeh) effect. Apart from stylus (S-Pen), the Note 8 should operate very similarly to the Galaxy S8+.

In addition to the black color, the Samsung Galaxy Note 8 is expected to come in orchid grey and deep blue. But, it is still a long wait before we get to have our hands on the long awaited device.
