In light of the ongoing debacle of the Galaxy Note 7, Samsung will probably be relieved to learn that attention is beginning to attract their next smartphone, the Galaxy S8. A new leak reported that the device will have some serious powerful hardware that will allow it to produce high quality VR and 4K, according to ITbukva.com.

Galaxy S8 can be powered by an Exynos SoC with a new 8895 mobile GPU high-class Mali-G71 from the ARM.

Built using the new architecture of Bifrost, the graphics chip size of 16 nm, running at a frequency of 850 MHz and provides up to 20% improve the efficiency of energy use, 40% better density performance and 20% more to save bandwidth external memory compared to the GPU of the Mali-T880 installed in Galaxy S7.

Mali-G71 is also compatible with Vulkan, OpenGL ES 3.2, GPU Compute, Renderscript and the Android API.

Speaking of the advanced chips in may, Executive Vice President and President of ARM product groups, Pete Hutton, said, “This technology can make interaction with 4K video, virtual reality and augmented reality an everyday experience on a mobile device”.

Other rumors claim that the S8 will come with a 5.2-inch display with a resolution of 2160 x 4096 – more than the 1440 x 2560 on the S7. According to rumors, there will also be a back camera 30 MP with optical image stabilization, 9-Megapixel front shooter, a battery of 4200 mAh, retina scanners and fingerprint, 64, or 128 GB of memory, MicroSD slot, and a mini projector. Although some of these rumors are possible, such as a scanner and a MicroSD slot, others, camera 30 MP, should be taken with a grain of salt.

Like its predecessor, we are likely to see the S8 in February at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, and the smartphone will launch a couple of months later. As for the price, it was suggested that it would be at $ 850. Let’s hope there is no problem with this, according to rumors, a massive battery.
