Earlier this week, Samsung unveiled its Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8+ at an event in the New York City. The edgy new smartphones bring a number of new features, including a brilliant display and a powerful processor, along with AKG-tuned wired earplugs. The company has also introduced this year's phones in slightly subdued colors (you can find all the official images in this post). But, it's not always about the hardware; software features often help us get this "new" look and feel on other older devices too. We have already shared stock SamsungGalaxy S8 wallpapers, and now the Samsung Galaxy S8 launcher APK file has also leaked online.

Download and install Galaxy S8 launcher APK

You can now download Samsung Galaxy S8 launcher APK and install it on your own Android devices. The APK reportedly works on all Galaxy devices, but the developer has confirmed that it is definitely working on at least the last year's Galaxy S7 and S7 edge, running Android 7.0 Nougat.
