Tomorrow is shaping up to be one of the most exciting days of the year for Android fans, but today is the most exciting day of the year for us. Why? Because today is the last day we have to worry about Galaxy S8 leaks. Tomorrow the S8 and S8+ will finally become official when Samsung unveils them on stage during its big Unpacked press conference in New York City. Of course at this point, it seems highly unlikely that there will be any surprises left.

We’ve seen the leaks, we’ve read the rumors, we know the specs, and we’ve watched the videos. As a result, there’s probably almost nothing Samsung can tell us that we haven’t already heard before. In fact, the only questions left relate to the Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8+ launch, since there are conflicting reports on the exact release date and pricing. We still have another 24 hours and change before those blanks are filled in, but we have two final Galaxy S8 leaks to tide you over in the meantime.

With just one day to go until Samsung’s new flagship phones are announced, search traffic for the Galaxy S8 has climbed to an all-time high compared to search traffic for the iPhone 8. In fact, this might be the biggest margin by which any Samsung flagship has ever had a lead over an upcoming new iPhone. The reason, of course, is that people have seen all the leaks and they know just how impressive Samsung’s upcoming new Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8+ are.

Of course, it can’t hurt to take one last look, right?

We have just one day left before Samsung’s big event, but the Galaxy S8 has been photographed in the wild yet again. The first new leak comes from Slashleaks user Dimitri12, who has dug up number of Galaxy S8 leaks over the past few weeks. This one comes from Instagram originally, though the two photos have since been deleted from the photo sharing site. Of course, nothing is ever truly deleted once it hits the internet — here are the two images in question:

Next up, we have a photo that was pulled from Weibo, though the Slashleaks user who posted it didn’t bother to link the original source. In the photo, we get a great look at how the Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8+ compare in terms of sizing.

Samsung will unveil the Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8+ on Wednesday during its press conference in New York City, and the phones are expected to be released next month on either April 21st or April 28th.
