The rumor mill surrounding the Galaxy S8 is in full production mode at the moment, with anonymous sources from all corners of the web revealing potential features and design elements long before Samsung is ready to reveal the phone in earnest. The latest comes from Fone Arena , which reports that the S8 will follow the iPhone 7's lead in the speaker department. MUST READ:- Get ready for a limited NES Classic Edition sale tomorrow morning The iPhone 7 was the first iPhone to feature stereo speakers, and it's an addition that has been roundly praised by reviewers and users alike. Now, Samsung will reportedly follow suit, adding stereo speakers to the S8, along with special branding to draw more attention to the feature. One of the-HTC One's marquee features was its stereo speaker setup that the company branded BoomSound. The report-suggests that Samsung has something similar in mind for the speakers on the new S8.

However, this is something that was already shot down by Harman's own CEO, Dinesh Paliwal, just a couple of weeks ago. At the time, Paliwal suggests that the timeline to integrate any Harman technology into the S8 was simply too short, and that Samsung's smartphones would have to wait until 2018 before they could benefit from the acquisition. “Since we are globally number one in audio technology, we plan to create new opportunities by applying the audio technologies into Samsung’s smartphones and home appliances. We may adopt Harman’s luxury audio technology into Galaxy S series possibly in 2018," Paliwal said.
