It seems like Samsung has decided to continue its Active line of smartphones this year as well. A Samsung device with model number SM-G892A has been spotted in an User Agent String which is likely to be the AT&T Galaxy S8 Active. This totally falls in line with past a rumor which revealed that AT&T bound Galaxy S8 Active is coming soon with codename Cruiser.

Notably, Samsung’s Active phones are AT&T exclusive and looks like the Korean manufacturer is in no mood to divert from the norm. Although, nothing much is known about the S8 Active at this point, one thing is for sure that it will be MIL-STD-810G certified, of course in addition to the IP68 certification which means that the phone will be dust-proof, water-proof and more ruggedized.
