The smartphone world is definitely looking forward to one particular smartphone that is set to arrive before the highly anticipated iPhone 8 (which mark the 10th anniversary of the iPhone) -- and that would be none other than the Samsung Galaxy S8. Much has been said about the Samsung Galaxy S8 in the past couple of months, with more and more leaks appearing in recent times with some of these leaked images pointing to how the Samsung Galaxy S8 would look like, in addition to the number of colors in which it comes in. Well, for starters, we do know that the Samsung Galaxy S8 will arrive in shades of grey, black, silver, and a wonderful new color -- purple.
How did the latest press renders come about to everyone’s notice? The whole world should thank serial leakster @evleaks, who did perform an altruistic act for all Galaxy S8 watchers the spanking new press renders of the handset in addition to revealing some bits of hardware details in the past. Somehow, calling the Samsung Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8 Plus to come in black, grey, and silver colors simply will not do. There has to have a more artistic slant to the whole situation, where black sky, orchid grey, and arctic silver would roll off the tongue in a far more elegant manner, in addition to making it look a whole lot more premium -- not that this is not a premium handset in the first place.

@evleaks also did share on just how much the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8 Plus are going to cost, at least over in Europe in which he is based. We are talking about inching closer and closer to breaking the $1,000 psychological barrier -- something that the iPhone 8 will purportedly do simply because it is capable of that. Well, without much further ado, the unlocked Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8 Plus is rumored to be priced at €799 and €899, respectively.
There were even additional information concerning the GearVR and Gear360’s pricing details, which will purportedly be going for €129 and €229, respectively.
S8 - 799€
S8+ - 899€
DeX - 150€
GearVR - 129€
Gear360 - 229€ https://t.co/vVm6DRMkX5— Evan Blass (@evleaks) March 19, 2017
Now that you have seen the latest image leaks for the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8 Plus, what is your reaction to it? Are you already suffering from Samsung Galaxy S8 fatigue even before the flagship device is launched? Perhaps it does not really matter to many out there on knowing what the Samsung Galaxy S8 looks like before it enter production and rolls onto store shelves -- most people who are rocking to older Galaxy S series smartphones would most probably make an upgrade anyway. Such leaks will only increase the amount of hype and drum up interest among those who are sitting on the fence. Perhaps the aesthetics in the leaks would be the tipping point factor in making a purchase decision, or would it be the speculated features that will help one shift one’s allegiance to the Android camp after being loyal to the iOS platform after all these years?
