New leaks seem to pop up every day as we continue to countdown the finals days until Samsung releases the Galaxy S8 and S8+. Today, a number of official-looking accessories were leaked on the site Slash Leaks. This leak might not include all of the accessories Samsung has in store for the phones, but it definitely includes many of them. The items and their prices, roughly converted from Euros to US dollars, are below:

Samsung Clearview Standing Cover ($65)
Samsung LED View Cover ($65)
Samsung Keyboard Cover ($65)
Samsung Alcantara Cover ($50)
Samsung Silicone Cover ($30)
Samsung Clear Cover ($20)
Samsung 2-Pieces Cover ($20)
Samsung Screen Protector ($15)
Samsung Wireless Charger Convertible ($90)
Samsung DeX Station ($160)
Samsung Battery Pack (Fast Charging) ($75)

Note again that these prices are roughly converted and will be slightly different when the accessories are officially released. Most of the accessories are the standard Samsung fare, including cases, screen protectors, a wireless charger, and a fast charging battery pack. However, the DeX Station is a new accessory for Samsung. The DeX Station is a vertical docking stand for the S8 and S8+ that includes a cooling fan, HDMI port, USB 2.0 ports, and Ethernet. This accessory hints to the phones being capable of providing desktop-like functionality. We'll have to wait until Samsung's event on the 29th to confirm all of this though.
