When Samsung officially took the wraps off the Galaxy S8, it’s safe to say that many were blown away by the design of the phone, which admittedly looks very sleek thanks to its curved edges and lack of bezels, giving the illusion that the entire phone is made up of the display only. Safe to say that based on this, many are expecting great things from the Galaxy Note 8.

The Galaxy Note 8 should be launched later this year, and for those curious about how it looks, wonder no more as the folks at 91mobiles and OnLeaks have published a series of renders that are allegedly that of the upcoming phone. From what we can tell, the Galaxy Note 8 appears to sport a slightly more boxy shape compared to the Galaxy S8.

Whether or not this is a good or bad thing will depend on your preference, but regardless it still makes for a very sleek design. The handset also seems to be packing a dual camera setup on the back, something that was missing from the Galaxy S8. For those who were hoping for an embedded fingerprint sensor, you might be disappointed as the renders show the fingerprint sensor is still on the back of the phone where the camera is located.

This is in line with leaked schematics (although showing a different design) and rumors that say that Samsung has yet to figure out how to get it to work. Safe to say you should take it with a grain of salt for now, but last we heard, Samsung could unveil the phone on the 28th of August where it could also end up being the company’s most expensive handset to date.
