A recent leak claims to show details about the upcoming Galaxy Note 8 smartphone. If valid, the leak could reveal a flat, bezel-free display for the phablet, after several generations of Samsung releasing curved display devices.
The video originates from the Chinese Twitter account, @mmddj_china and shows a wide smartphone front panel, which it claims belongs to a Samsung Galaxy Note 8 handset. There appears to be no curvature to the panel, as one would expect from other Samsung flagships, such as the Galaxy S8. However, the panel also reveals an infinity display. This would indicate the device in the video likely has a virtual, on-screen home button.
Samsung has stated intentions to shift away from a flat display design to its dual-edge curved display as a signature differentiator for its flagship smartphones. So far, the Galaxy S8 and Galaxy Note 7 have released with no flat display options. However, there are other leaks that suggest the Galaxy Note 8 design may be more flat than curved.
Recently, a YouTuber by the name of Concept Creator shared a 3D-printed dummy model of what he claims is the Galaxy Note 8. The model appears to be more curved along the sides of the device itself more so than the display. This design may differentiate between the Galaxy S8 Plus and the Galaxy Note 8 as two different types of phablets.
