New live image of Galaxy S8 leaked

Without boring you with the Galaxy S8 backgrounder (as this particular yet-to-be released smartphone needs no introduction), let’s get to the news at hand. The first image of a powered-on Samsung Galaxy S8 has been spotted online (alleged, of course). The image shows the the phone running Weibo app (the Chinese microblogging site).

Although, only the lower half of Samsung’ next flaghsip phone is visible, it is sufficient to back a couple of earlier claims viz the dual-curved screen which is almost bezel-less as it stretches edge to edge. The absence of a physical button below it falls in line with past leaks of the phone housing a rear home button and fingerprint sensor.

At the bottom-end, one can easily spot 3.5-mm audio jack. Does this mean that Samsung will not be shipping Galaxy S8 with new wireless headphones as reported earlier?

The bottom also houses a USB Type-C and beside it is the sound grill seen in the form of mini dots in the image above.
