Samsung Galaxy Note 8 will be launched on August 23rd, and pre-orders may start on the very next day.
The Korean manufacturer is unveiling their latest flagship in a few days, and everyone is eager to see it. After the Note 7 fiasco, the faith of the entire series was uncertain. The long-awaited Galaxy Note 7 (expected to be named Note 6) was launched in September 2016. It was discontinued due to reports of overheating and catching fire.

As you can see from the Blass’s tweet, Galaxy Note 8 will come with a 256GB microSD card and a wireless charger, or a 360-degree camera. According to Blass, buyers in Europe will get a DeX dock as a pre-order gift.
If you are a fan of Note series and planning to get the latest flagship, this deal sounds pretty cool. Buying these separately will cost you a lot more and this way you can save a lot of money.
According to VentureBeat, Galaxy Note 8 will be the most expensive phone Samsung has ever launched and it will cost €999. If you have the budget and if you are willing to forget the Note 7 debacle, consider pre-ordering the phone.
