Samsung Galaxy Note 7 (rumor)
Samsung initially left Europe out in the
cold when it launched the Galaxy Note5. As consolation, the Old Continent got
the Galaxy S6 edge+, but it wasn't quite the same. Rumor has it that this time
Europeans are getting the full-fat Galaxy Note 7, which will have a dual-curved
screen.
Allegedly, Samsung took a while to
figure out how the S Pen stylus will coexist with the 5.8" curved screen.
There won't be a flat screen version to avoid fragmentation.
The screen will be a Super AMOLED with
QHD resolution and the similarities with the S7 don't end here. The phone will
be powered by an overclocked version of the Exynos chipset paired with 6 GB of
RAM. Following in the footsteps of the S7, the Note 7 will bring a bigger
battery than its predecessor - 4,000 mAh (up from 3,000 mAh).
The camera will feature the 12 MP
dual-pixel sensor, but will sport improved software. The additional features
will reportedly be ported over to the S7 and S7 edge with an upgrade. Previous
rumors suggest the Note 7 will have an IP68 rating, an iris scanner and a USB
Type-C port.
The rumor suggests the Samsung Galaxy
Note 7 will arrive in mid-August at € 800 (price for the Netherlands, should be
a bit lower elsewhere).
