Gizchina News of the week
Samsung is expecting massive interest and pre-order numbers for the Galaxy Note8 since it is practically the first Galaxy Note phone in two years – especially after last years fiasco with its predecessor. That’s why a Samsung spokesperson said:
“the company is fully ready, so there aren’t any setbacks regarding sales of the phone”.
Recent – last minute – rumors suggest that the upcoming model could be equipped 3D Touch anywhere on the screen, a technology currently used in the Galaxy S8 but is limited to a small area where the Home button usually is positioned.
