We are just a few days away from knowing what the technical sheet of the new Samsung Galaxy Note 8 will be like. The event will be held on August 23, that is, next week. And then we can confirm each and every one of the features that have been leaked until today. And by the way there have been few.
Today we also learned that Samsung could present a variant with dual SIM in Europe. Which would indicate that the model in question would also be sold in Spain.
The equipment has been leaked with the code SM-N950F / DS, which clearly identifies the version as Dual SIM. And its ability to accommodate two microSD cards. But beware, all that glitters is not gold.
The card slot of the Samsung Galaxy Note 8 will be hybrid
Users who want to use the Samsung Galaxy Note 8 with two SIM cards will have to sacrifice the microSD slot. Because in reality, what this device will include is a hybrid tray, which will serve both the microSD and the SIM.
In this way, users who decide to do so could miss the possibility of expanding the storage capacity of the Samsung Galaxy Note 8. And to do it with 128 GB of memory. That is not exactly little. Luckily, it is rumored that there will be a version of the device that will feature 256GB of internal capacity.
Another viable option, for those who need to store more content, would be to use tools to save data in the cloud. Such as Dropbox, OneDrive or Google Drive. In this way, in addition, the files would remain safe whatever happens.
More leaked features of the Samsung Galaxy Note 8
The Samsung Galaxy Note 8 could come to have a 6.3 inch screen. It has been dubbed the Infinity Display, from the start, because the edges practically disappear and there is a lot of space available exclusively for the screen.
All in all, it is expected that this screen can have a resolution of 1,440 x 2,960 pixels, in addition to a density of 522 dots per inch. It should be noted, on the other hand, that it would be a screen very similar to that of the Samsung Galaxy S8 +. Which also has the same dimensions.
And inside the device? Well, everything indicates that the phone will have an Exynos 8895 processor in some markets (probably the Spanish). In others it will be released with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 chip. Both could combine its operation with 6 GB of RAM. This will guarantee users, as you can imagine, very high performance.
Samsung's first dual camera device
In the section of the camera, we would also detect another important innovation. And is that the Samsung Galaxy Note 8 could become the first Samsung device that would have a dual sensor. It would be a double 12 and 12 megapixels, with an aperture f / 1.7 and f / 2.4, respectively. It would include image stabilization, phase autofocus detection, 3x optical zoom and dual dual-tone LED flash.
Logically, this same camera would offer us the possibility of recording 4K video, even simultaneously, creating HDR images or in panoramic format. The secondary camera, designed especially for selfies, would have 8 megapixels, aperture f / 1.7 and automatic HDR.
Finally, it is expected that the device will continue to include an iris sensor and a fingerprint sensor, which would make the identification of users much more agile and secure. The team would have a 3,300 milliamp battery and would work through Android 7.1.1 Nougat, which is the most recent version that is operational for now.
Be that as it may, it is most likely that it will be one of the first in the Samsung catalog to upgrade to Android 8. If the forecasts are not twisted, it is most likely that the device will cost between 900 and 1,000 euros. But we will continue to listen to the official information to confirm it.
