Samsung wants to up your selfie game.。

Two new investor notes from reliable analyst Ming-Chi Kuo of KGI give new insight into Samsung's 2017 performance, 9to5gogle。reports. Kuo predicts that the Galaxy Note 8, to release later this year, will be the company's first dual-camera smartphone. The adoption of the dual camera will be the "most important upgrade," Kuo writes. 。

The cameras will include an impressive 3x optical zoom (the optical zoom on the iPhone 7 Plus is 2x) and have 12-megapixel resolution for wide-angle images (13MP with the telephoto). The two lenses will also both include optical image stabilization. Kuo claims the "Note 8's dual-camera will be much better than that of the iPhone 7 Plus, and likely to match that of OLED iPhone," a reference the forthcoming iPhone (AKA the iPhone 8). 。

Kuo also suggests the Galaxy S8 and S8 are selling well during the pre-order period. The feedback from consumers has been "better than expected," he says, which the analyst attributes to the "selling point in the full-screen design." The firm revised their predictions for the S8 sales, as the form factor "will be effective in attracting high-end users." 。

The analyst expects a strong year ahead from Samsung which is finally making a recovery from 2016, when the company was forced to pull the well-reviewed Galaxy Note 7 from the market due to multiple reports of the phones catching fire. 。
