Meanwhile, TechnoBuffalo has gotten hold of leaked specs of its own, and this time, they are for the smaller Galaxy S8. Basically, it shares some similarities with the Galaxy S8 Plus specs mentioned earlier. Here they are:

As reported by South Korea based website ETNews, Samsung is said to planning to unveil the Galaxy S8 devices on March 29th of this year, with a global launch to follow on April 21st.
Interestingly, ETNews also reported about the speculated release dates of another South Korean made flagship, LG’s G6. The smartphone is rumored to be made available for preordering starting on March 2nd, with the launch date set on March 10th. LG has since confirmed that its latest smartphone offering will be officially announced this coming February 26th, just one day before this year’s Mobile World Congress is set to kick off in the beautiful city of Barcelona in Spain.
Just a couple of days ago, leaked images of the LG G6 emerged in the interwebs, thanks to Evan Blass. Then about a week ago, LG also unleashed a teaser video that highlights some of the features of its upcoming flagship device.
