    I think the camera and screen will be the best in any smartphone (Android or iOS) ever. The rest of the specs, we'll see but the battery will be pretty good too, watching how S7 Edge is. And of course, pretty powerful too.

    I just wait hope they get it right with the software and bring faster updates.

                A superior Camera - Well maybe I will give you that since S7 did take the best night photos for me

                A Premium and Stylish design - Well maybe, I do not agree but I wont say its wrong

                Enhanced battery life - We all know you guys kept the battery smaller or the same this time comparing to S7 so let see how much better than your S7 / S7 Edge

                Powerful gaming performance - GTFO, you can never say that since android just can not match with iPhones in gaming, I'd be surprised if S8 can perform just as well as iPhone 6S (Not 7)

                Enhanced virtual reality experience - I thought my S7 was gonna melt down when using my VR for more than 20 minutes, hope S8 is better this time

                              I'm pretty sure the standout feature will be the Infinity Display? Iris and facial recognition is probably up there, too?
                              Those points are probably mostly there to remind people what features Samung is always delivering on.

                                I am very glad about the bezels, been waiting that for years, but I'm also extremely dissatisfied about the sacrifice of battery capacity for a false sense of premium feel associated with 7mm thickness, 9mm thickness and a decent battery would be a much wiser choice. Ppl complained about that on the S6 and Samsung fixed it with the edge and now know they ve ruined it again...

                                  I dont understand some of the intepretations on your articles. The fact the camera will have the same mpx count and such has nothing to do with it being the same camera. Samsung has never reused the sensor and always progressed between generations. The Galaxy S2 and S3 both had same specced cameras. Does it mean they were equal? No, the S3 had a far superior camera quality. Same here, it will surely be a better/bigger sensor. This generation matters the most for Samsung. They wouldnt not upgrade the most important part of the phone.

                                    How about:

                                    * Removable battery
                                    * Reasonable price
                                    * A phone that you can operate with one hand, S8 mini, micro, nano or something please!!!

                                    I'll be 80 before any company comes out with a smaller device than 5 - 6". Bleh!

                                        How about a phone I can use with one hand? Seems like they aren't interested in that, so I won't be interested in a Galaxy this time around.
