There's no doubt that Samsung's flagship Galaxy S devices are always the hot cake of the tech world and the most anticipated ones of the year. But when it comes to Galaxy S8, there's something different in it.

After going through a very rough holiday season that including several cancellations and withdrawals of the Note 7 devices, the company is once again trying their best to regain the customer confidence. However, the tech giant, isn't off to a great start this year, but with the S8 on its forefront, users can expect something new.

According to BGR, even though the company is going through a very tough time, they hope the latest flagship device S8 might turn the tables for them. The recent leaked image of the S8 device has taken the gadget world by surprise.

As of now, the users can expect not just one, but two S8 devices to be launched. However, the good news is that the consumers don't need to wait for long as these might come up within April, 2017. There are several conflicts regarding the upcoming S8 models. But there's one thing for sure, there will be one flagship device and another larger version, something like Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 Edge.

What is unknown as of now is whether both the S8 models would come with a curvy body or whether one would be flat. Apart from this, the company has also not disclosed any information regarding whether the fingerprint scanner would be situated at the back of the device or whether it would come below the display.

According to the Forbes, the leaked image so far matches the description of the features. But again, the source was an unknown Chinese user without a proper track record. What really raises the eyebrow is that the leaked image doesn't show any virtual or physical navigation buttons.

Samsung however, is set to launch Galaxy S8 at the press conference either in February or March, apart from the global release scheduled for April.
