Galaxy Note 8 Update: Samsung Plans Strategy; To Bring Note 8 Before Apple iPhone 8
Samsung recently launched its Galaxy S8, S8 Plus smartphones and took the market by a storm. However, it doesn't appear like the South-Korean tech giant is done yet. The firm is gradually moving forward towards launching its equally-anticipated Galaxy Note 8 device as well. While rumors and speculations regarding the upcoming smartphone have been around for quite some time, a new report emerging from a source based in South-Korea suggests that the company plans on introducing the device before Apple takes the wraps off its 2017 iPhone flagship.
According to a report published by Mashable, a report emerging from South Korea states that Samsung is planning on getting done with its unpacking event of the Galaxy Note 8 smartphone by the end of August. This is a strategic decision made by the technology giant as they wish to make their debut before Apple makes its iPhone 8 debuts.
According to a report published by The Korea Herald, the upcoming Samsung Galaxy Note 8 smartphone is expected to be a replica of the recently-launched Galaxy S8, S8 Plus smartphones. The only difference between the devices will be the fact that the former will sport a slightly larger display than the latter. The smartphone is also expected to come along with an upgraded S Pen stylus.
This rumor falls parallel with the South-Korean tech giant's plans of catering to consumers who prefer larger screens in their smartphones. The Korean publication further added that users have recently been found to be consuming high-definition movies on their respective smartphones. Users also prefer gaming as well - which is why they often opt for smartphones that have a larger display size. Samsung, keeping this mind, plans on catering to this niche - or a market with its upcoming Galaxy Note 8.
