The Note 7 debacle feels like it only happened yesterday, but the follow up is already upon us: while the exact day may not be set in stone, comments from a Samsung executive would suggest that the Note 8 will definitely be unveiled next month in August. Recent renders are alluding to a dual-camera setup that is bunched in closely with the fingerprint sensor, which may require some getting used to.



Samsung recently decided to advance the Note launch to start the phone sales from September globally. The earlier launch comes amid growing speculations that Apple’s iPhone 8 release could be delayed due to supply constraints of some parts such as chips and displays. The new Note phablet, the successor of the ill-fated Note 7 last year, is expected to come with the English version of Samsung’s artificial intelligence assistant Bixby and an upgraded stylus S-Pen that supports translation functions.
