The Intel Coffee Lake NUC's (Bean Canyon) are here.
More specific in the formfactor of the NUC's.
There are 5 models:

NUC8i3BEH/K, Core i3-8109U CPU
NUC8i5BEH/K, Core i5-8259U CPU
NUC8i7BEH, Core i7-8559U CPU
(models ending in letter H will have a higher case with a 2.5″ drive slot)

Some details:
i3: dual-core with hyperthreading, i5/i7: quad-core with hyperthreading
TDP of 28 watts
Iris Plus 655 GPU
128 MB EDRAM
DDR4-2400 RAM, max. 32 GB
WiFi Wireless-AC 9560 (802.11ac, Dual Band, 2×2 Wi-Fi + Bluetooth 5)

There are some concerns about the TDP of 28 watts and the noise of the cooling fan.
Reviews will sure soon be clarifying that (see below).

They still haven't native HDMI 2.0, so the LSPCon is still present.

Since Gemini Lake has native HDMI 2.0, but no HDR support (say what?)
And Coffee Lake has no native HDMI 2.0, but should have HDR support (come again?)
I'm very curious how the Coffee Lake boxes will perform.

I know there is much scepticism about the need of HDR. But if I buy a player, it should last 3 years with me, so yes, I want HDR support
