Since their initial release almost five months ago, the Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge from South Korean tech provider Samsung have been a commercial success, and as early as now, fans are already anticipating the next flagship phone from the company which is the Samsung Galaxy S8. Rumor has it that another leaked image from China has spawned the showing of a part of the purported concept render of the Samsung Galaxy S8.

According to reports, the Chinese site MyDrivers has posted an image of the rumored phone with Project Dream as its working title. From the name given to the alleged flagship phone, there are some who speculated that the Samsung Galaxy S8 will be boasting a 4K display and could support virtual reality (VR) features since the company has just unveiled their Samsung Gear VR, not to mention that search engine giant Google also launched their very own Google Daydream VR which will be released sometime this fall.

In addition, it is said that the Galaxy S8 might be powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon 830 processor. It's also speculated that since Android's new operating system, dubbed as the "Nougat' is looming, it is more likely that the next smartphone from Samsung will be carrying the new OS. However, it's not yet known what will be the phone's graphics processing unit. Such caliber from a phone will definitely require a high-performing GPU that has 4K and VR capabilities.

Furthermore, just like the upcoming phones from Samsung, there's a high probability that the Galaxy S8 will be fused with the USB Type-C port which will enable faster transmission of files, shorter charging time, and whatnot.

Meanwhile, Samsung has yet to confirm these speculations, but it is said that this next generation smartphone might be revealed to the public sometime next year.
