The Samsung Galaxy S8 features with black color have been allegedly leaked in a brief 5-second video. It is also spotted on the benchmarking website Geekbench with Samsung Galaxy S8+.

Another new leaked video shows another bite-sized look at the Samsung Galaxy S8. It was uploaded on the Instagram by user 505nick. It exhibits the device in a stealth black color and comes with the clean and minimalistic design. It also displays that the device's screen is turned off to enhance the stealthiness of the jet black color.

If the brief video is legit, the Samsung Galaxy S8 will feature a sleek and sexy look. It will be equipped with the fingerprint scanner on the back to the right of the rear camera, similar to the other previous leaks. It might have embedded the scanner under the display because of the apparent removal of the physical home button.

The Samsung Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8+ were notably absent from the Mobile World Congress 2017 (MWC) and have been benchmarked by the Geekbench as well. The Galaxy S8 has a model number of SM-G950U and was tested with Android 7.0 installed, which could be changed to Android 7.1 if launched next month. It came with a 4GB of RAM without specific built-in storage.

In the listing, the Samsung Galaxy S8 was also tested with the Snapdragon 835 chipset. It had an octa-core graphics processing unit clocked at a maximum speed of 1.9 GHz. It scored 1916 on the single core and 6011 on the multi-core test.

In addition, the Samsung Galaxy S8+ has a model number of SM-G955U in the Geekbench listing. It is going to have a larger 6.2-inch display, making it different from the Galaxy S8's 5.8-inch screen. It will be packed with a larger battery capacity since more power is required for the bigger screen, unlike the Galaxy S8's battery either 3500 mAh or 3000 mAh capability.

The Samsung Galaxy S8+ has identical specifications to what was posted for the Galaxy S8. But it scored 1929 on the single core and 6084 on the multi-core run. Those scores are not more than 1.2 percent apart from the scores of Galaxy S8.

The Samsung Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8+ are scheduled for launch on March 29, 2017. Watch the video about the leaked video of Samsung Galaxy S8 black color:
