Reliable tipster OnLeaks has teamed up with online publication 91Mobiles to release a set of renders and a 360-degree video of the upcoming Galaxy Note 8, allegedly showcasing the handset from all angles.

Just like the Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8+, the Galaxy Note 8 sports a near bezel-less design, though it's slightly thicker to house the S Pen and the refreshed camera, and its frame is more square to help with ergonomics.

What's even more interesting, however, is the arrangement of the dual-camera, LED flash, heart rate monitor and fingerprint reader, which are all positioned next to each other with a protruding piece of glass protecting them.

According to 91Mobiles, the Galaxy Note 8 measures in at approximately 162.4 x 74.5 x 8.4mm, with the thickness jumping up to 9.5mm when you factor in the camera bump. Its weight is currently unknown.

As for specifications, leaks and rumors suggest that the Galaxy Note 8 will pack a 6.3-inch edge-to-edge Infinity Display (18.5:9 aspect ratio), an Exynos 8895/Snapdragon 835 CPU, 6GB of RAM and a 3,300mAh battery.

When it hits the shelves, the Galaxy Note 8 will be available in three colors — black, blue and gold — and is expected to cost somewhere in the region of $1,100, making it the firm's most expensive smartphone to date.

Unfortunately, were unable to verify these images, so best take them with a pinch of salt until we know more.
