Samsung's Galaxy S8 won't be at Mobile World Congress

From CNET: Hankering after a Galaxy S8? Well you're going to have to wait.

Samsung will not unveil its next flagship phone at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona next month, the company revealed Sunday.

The announcement was made by Samsung's mobile chief Koh Dong-jin and confirmed in an email to CNET on Monday.

"Samsung can confirm the company will not unveil its flagship product at Mobile World Congress this year," said a company spokeswoman in a statement.

The decision follows a thorough investigation into a fault with the Galaxy Note 7 that caused the phone to be recalled twice and then discontinued altogether in late 2016. Samsung revealed that, as suspected, it was a flaw with the phone's battery that instigated multiple incidents in which Note 7 devices caught fire.
