Leaked Photo Allegedly Shows Galaxy S8’s Desktop Dock

One of the early rumors that we have been hearing about the Samsung Galaxy S8 is that it could have a Windows Continuum-like feature. For those unfamiliar, basically Continuum is where users can connect their Windows-based mobile devices to a display, and it will transform it into a desktop.

Now we’re not sure how this will work with Samsung since the Galaxy S8 will run on Android, but the folks at WinFuture.de have managed to get their hands on a leaked photo that allegedly shows off the docking device for the Galaxy S8. From what we can tell, the dock will enable “Galaxy Desktop” functionality. It will also come with an embedded cooling fan to keep you phone cool while it runs.

It also supports HDMI up to 4K @ 30fps, 2x USB 2.0 ports and a 100Mb Ethernet port, and a power supply. Once again we’re not sure how this will translate for Android when it becomes a desktop, but it should be interesting to see how it works out. The Samsung Galaxy S8 is expected to be officially announced at the end of March, so until we get the official details do take it with a grain of salt for now.
