Samsung announces August 23 Unpacked event, Note 8 likely

Galaxy Note fans won't have to wait much longer to see what Samsung has in store for the Note 8.

Samsung on Thursday announced its next Unpacked event, where the company typically announces new products, will take place on August 23. The post on Twitter features the tagline "Find out what it means to do bigger things on 08.23.2017."

The event is scheduled to start at 11:00 AM EST in New York and will be live streamed by Samsung on Samsung.com according to invites sent to the press.

The Note 8 is expected to feature the same basic design as the Galaxy S8 line, with an Infinity Display that shows virtually no bezel on the front. A larger display -- 6.3-inches -- compared to the S8 Plus' display of 6.2-inches, dual rear cameras, and, of course, an S-Pen are also expected.
