Rumors linked to the launch of the Samsung Galaxy S8 continue. The Korean company Samsung is already working on the launch of its new flagship, which is why in recent weeks countless rumors related to its technical sheet have leaked. Today we also learned that the brand new Samsung Galaxy S8 would be the first on the market to equip the new Bluetooth 5.0. The standard, which was launched very recently, would allow users to enjoy a greater range and a much higher speed when transmitting data. The new standard, approved by the Bluetooth Special Interest Group, is already available to manufacturers, so it would not be surprising ifSamsung was one of the first to incorporate it into its flagship phone. If you are a regular user of this technology, this will be vital news for you. You will notice it when playing music on your headphones without cables or when connecting any other device and synchronizing it with your phone.
Samsung is also part of the Bluetooth Special Interest Group. According to this group, the first devices with Bluetooth 5.0 are expected to start arriving within two to six months, so it seems clear that the Samsung Galaxy S8 would enter within that period. The device could be announced at the end of February or the beginning of March, coinciding with the celebration of the Mobile World Congress 2017 in Barcelona, although, it must be said, there are other rumors that bet on a launch in April. In addition to offering a range four times greater and being perfectly capable of doubling its speed, the new system ofBluetooth 5.0 would offer us a transmission capacity up to eight times greater. This will be appreciated by those who use Bluetooth technology to listen to their favorite songs in streaming through speakers or headphones without cables or to synchronize any other data between devices.
But this, logically, will not be the only novelty that the device will bring with it. Yesterday we told you that the Samsung Galaxy S8 could come equipped with a new fingerprint sensor developed by Synaptics (one of its suppliers) that could be located just below the screen, instead of being located on the phone's home button: another element that would also disappear in physical format. The device, in addition, could be released with a 5.7-inch screen, although there could also be a second with a 6.2-inch panel. The larger model could be completely curved and dispense with the edges. Other rumors point to the launch of a singleSamsung Galaxy S8 with curved screen, the extension of which would exceed 90% of the front surface. At the heart of the team we could find an Exynos 8895 processor and up to 6 GB of RAM, a delight for those users who do not tire of demanding power. In addition, there is the possibility that the phone has a dual camera system, although other rumors bet in parallel on a single camera.
