Samsung likely to unveil Galaxy X smartphone in 2017

It was very early in the year that we assumed Samsung would finally release a foldable device next year, and that this first device to take advantage of this would more than likely be the Samsung Galaxy S8.

According to reports, Samsung has acquired the rights to Viv Labs Inc., a firm by a co-creator of Apple Inc's Siri voice assistant program. But this time instead of naming it as Edge, Samsung will call it Galaxy S8 Plus, claims VentureBeat.

Seeing how quality assessment and so many internal issues started to appear, Samsung is taking its time and ensuring that its next flagship is going to beat all expectations. The South Korean tech company absolutely can not repeat the same mistake as it did with the Galaxy Note 7 because if that's the case, then it would likely be the end of Samsung as we know it.

"When we compare this to the Galaxy S7 series from earlier this year, we see that the Galaxy S7 has a 5.1" display while the Galaxy S7 Edge variant has a bigger 5.5" display.

"Developers can attach and upload services to our agent.Even if Samsung doesn't do anything on its own, the more services that get attached the smarter this agent will get, learn more new services and provide them to end-users easily", said Samsung executive vice president Rhee Injong in reference to the Galaxy S8's upcoming AI feature. However, the Samsung Galaxy S8 is speculated to come sporting a curved-edge display, as usual Samsung handset describes. However, because Samsung is bent on redeeming its tarnished reputation by developing its own version of AI, the device is unlikely to make it in the said upcoming perennial event.

According to Express, the Galaxy S8 Plus model might be the company's biggest device to date because of its larger panel which is almost edge-to-edge display. In any case, this isn't a huge inconvenience as the Galaxy S flagship usually gets launched around that time of the year.

The report also claims that Samsung will be ditching the flat screen design entirely for the upcoming Galaxy S8 release.

The Samsung Galaxy Note7 (S820) Review

This year has been difficult for smartphones, which is a bit of a paradox when you consider just how much better things have gotten compared to last year. With Snapdragon 820, 650, 652, and 625 we've finally moved past the shadow of the Snapdragon 810, 808, and 617/615. While there were Android devices that shipped with the Exynos 7420, they were often paired with a modem that was not necessarily the most power efficient. Despite all of this, there seems to be a general disappointment with smartphones. People are increasingly finding it hard to justify phones like the HTC 10 or Galaxy S7 with competition from OnePlus, Xiaomi, and even Apple with their iPhone SE. In this context the Galaxy Note7 brings much of the flavor of the Galaxy S7 edge, but blends it with the S-Pen of the Note line and a few new features like the iris scanner. If you were paying attention to the industry with the launch of the Galaxy S6 and Galaxy Note5, it's very much more of the same rather than the m
