Samsung's current pair of flagships, the Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge, has been dominating the smartphone market, particularly at the Android end of things. But the Korean tech giant has never been one to calm down and the upcoming Galaxy Note 7 is proof of this.
As PC Advisor notes, this series of Samsung will provide a a silver titanium, blue coral and a gold option. This time around, Samsung is only providing an curved edge unit, so a standard flat screen will no longer be on the table. Taking the best from its predecessor, the Samsung Galaxy Note S7 will also be waterproof for up to 1.5 meters and for as long as 30 minutes.
But what is more exciting are the features that will debut in the unit, as well as the improvements that it is making.
Know Your Mobile speaks about these enhancements and even calls the upcoming Samsung Galaxy Note 7 a beast of a handset.
It will be Samsung's most powerful release yet, with 6GB of RAM and a Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 processor. Rumors are also saying that the unit will have a 5.8 inch QHD AMOLED Edge display. Further, there is likely to be more than 500GB of available storage when a microSD extension is added onto the built in storage.
The Samsung Galaxy Note 7 is also expected to provide an entirely new experience with the improved S Pen. Further, the unit will innovate the standard way of unlocking a smartphone with the iris scanner. The catch is that it does not seem to work well when the user wears either contact lenses or glasses.
It is expected that Samsung is going all out with the Galaxy Note 7, particularly because Apple is expected to release the iPhone 7 by fall, and the company wants to put out the toughest competition possible at this point. The Samsung Galaxy Note 7 will be released by August 2.
