Samsung is preparing its next-gen Galaxy Note 8 smartphone, after the battery-related issues of its predecessor, but what will it arrive as? According to notorious leaker Evan 'evleaks' Blass, Samsung's codename for the Galaxy Note 8 is 'Samsung Gr3at'. Ugh.

Blass revealed the news over Twitter, with the Note 8 expected to rock a huge 6.3-inch dual edge display, and an improved and larger battery. We could even see Qualcomm's refreshed Snapdragon 836 processor on the 10nm FinFET LPP architecture. Another exclusive that Samsung could have with its Galaxy Note 8 is the fingerprint sensor being placed under the display itself, instead of on the Home button or on the back like the current-gen Galaxy S8.
