From what we know till now, Samsung will be announcing two different variants of the Samsung Galaxy S8 and S8+. One variant will be powered by its own Exynos 8895 SoC and the other will be powered by the new Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 SoC. The main feature this year is rumored to be the display and previous reports suggest that the S8 and S8+ will have bezel-less 5.8-inch and 6.2-inch displays, respectively.
The phone is supposed to have 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage, along with support for microSD cards. The device may also feature an iris scanner and include earphones tuned by AKG. We can expect the upcoming smartphone to be dust and water resistant, and support wireless charging like its predecessor.
