          The only thing i have to say is that the nexus 7 was in no way a flagship of samsung. They are phablets and personally I think the concept of a phablet is stupid unless you are using it to test apps or other software on the latest and greatest android operating system and hardware. The galaxy series is the flagship of samsung. Simple as that.

            Some AMOLED use RGB stripe (for example Note 2 and Glaxy S II)

              90% screen to body with the physical home and capacitive navigation sounds like a tall order

                      I will buy it anyway like every galaxy S model. Love Samsung and still think besides always great cameras it is that beautiful oled screen,,yes it is over saturated but so what it's gorgeous and you can turn down colour in settings.

                      Ever since that first Galaxy S and the Google Nexus S and way back to D500/D600 Samsung do great screens,,since you spend most of your time looking at one may as well enjoy the best.

                        Are they going to do the test in Nevada Test Site??????

                          Samsung. Tell people before launching s8 what went wrong with Note 7 otherwise I have no thrust on dropping my money on your (expensive) device.

                                I am sorry and I do not want to be negative but that looks as ugly as bat sh!t. seriously Samsung, your designs are so incredibly and chronically tired. same after same after same in general terms. That's ok sometimes but that huge logo which is so unstylish slapped in your face and that home button area and back. Be nice to see a badly needed refresh. Frankly when you go to the stores and see all your models they just look the same for the most part. I am coming from a good place.

                                  The actual StB ratio wold be around 86%. Even that I doubt it, but if true finally a non-phablet would be released to the masses (a phone that is 12x mm high like Nokia 3210 was the first non-brick phone that became widely popular).
