Samsung's new phone is almost ready for customers. Several sources have affirmed it is set to be released on April 21, 2017. The smartphone is expected to be officially unveiled in less than two weeks by the company. Some people say this will happen on March 29, at an event that the company is holding in New York City.

Invitations have been sent to the press. The specific features and innovations of the new Galaxy will also be unveiled on that day. Customers expect Samsung to avoid another disaster as the one with the Galaxy Note 7.

However, the information and the image of the new phone were leaked through a post that has been around in Twitter. It features the violet version of the Galaxy S8. Nonetheless, the photo doesn't offer a lot of insight, and the phone looks rather dull.

Features might include an iris scanner, a 12MP for main camera and 8MP for the front camera, wireless charging, and a microSD slot. The Galaxy S8 is expected to have a screen resolution of QHD (2560×1440) while the Galaxy S8+ will retain 3200×1800 (QHD+).
