Samsung latest updates for 2017:will beat Apple's Next iPhone with their all-glass Galaxy S8?
Companies who are producing mobile gadgets and other accessories have been competing closely like Apple and Samsung. Meanwhile, according to reports, Samsung might beat the Apple's next iPhone to a new feature that they will be launching next year.
According to Fortune, Samsung is considering to produce an all-screen face for its next handset to be launched as the Galaxy S8. It will not have a traditional design just like in the past with a screen on the front and a bezel around it. This next Samsung Galaxy S8 entire face could be a glass screen which will definitely make the display larger compared to the current Galaxy S7. Samsung might move the Home Button to under the glass, eliminating the physical button which is used at present.
Also as cited in Bloomberg by Fortune, Samsung could get ahead with Apple's new handset next year. Samsung will be announcing their new mobile device on April 2017 while Apple will be launching its iPhone 8 on September.
Well it can be recalled that Samsung has been into a lot of controversies as its Galaxy Note 7 were reported to have defective batteries which have caused explosion and injured owners of this device. The company may have apologized to its consumers but it had cost them a lot of money to make it up for the Galaxy Note 7 customers.
Moreover, it can be noticed that smartphone companies have been putting their best efforts to make their smartphones' screens more noticeable and would have a lesser size of the bezels around its display. Well so far, there's no company yet which were able to offer an all-glass face as a smartphone design due to complexities in its manufacturing processes. On the other hand, there is already a technology called organic light-emitting diode (OLED) screens which was innovated in order for manufacturers to try out an all-glass smartphone.
Meanwhile as reported in Digit, Samsung is reportedly planning to introduce Galaxy S8 two screen sizes - 5.7-inch and 6.2-inch - and likely to be powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon 835 processor. Samsung Galaxy S8 is also rumoured to feature virtual assistant based on Viv platform. The assistant is likely to be triggered by a dedicated button and will feature integrations with third party apps.
