Samsung Galaxy Note 7 was officially introduced yesterday by Samsung after several months of speculations and leaks; from all the specs given, it matches so much with all the leaks previously posted on this site. The phone is really a great one, a smartphone that thinks big, its a true definition of a smartphone.
Design and Overview
Samsung Galaxy Note 7 is all curved and doesn't have a flat model which means there is only an Edge version, it comes with a dual-curved screen so you can do more, better and faster, a rounded back so you can hold the 5.7-inch Note comforbly in the hand while using the S Pen and protected with Gorilla Glass 5 to prevent screen damage due to falls .
Samsung continued with the legacy laid with the previous Galaxy phones and made the Galaxy Note7 the first Galaxy Note fully water resistant , this time not just the device, but also the S-Pen. So you can carry on using your phone wherever you are. The S-pen is also made with more advanced features; asides from being water reisistant, it can be used to take notes, skecth out ideas, for optical zooming and also language translation, and this remains the best feature of the S-pen to me.
The rumored iris scanner is present along with fingerprint scanner accessed trough it's home button so as to create a foolproof, fast, comfortable and highly secure way to protect your data and information.
With the Galaxy Note7, you get consistently good photos whatever the scenario. It features a 12MP rear camera with OIS and Dual Pixel Sensor which works with a brighter F1.7 lens and larger 1.4µm pixels to capture images the way your own eyes do and hence effortlessly handles the most difficult challenges, from a lack of light to sudden movement, it also comes with a 5MP front-facing (selfie) camera with F1.7 lens as well.
Weighing 169 gram, Samsung has managed to make the new device lighter than its predecessor. It comes with a 4GB RAM plus a huge 64GB base internal storage with SD card support up to 256GB. The phone is powered by a 3500 mAh battery with an impressive charging speed and with support for wireless charging.
Samsung Galaxy Note Edge also comes with some special support features such as the health care support to be available in some countries; a smart switch support which means you can switch all your contents from any previous Galaxy Note model to Galaxy Note 7 with the aid of a USB cable to be included in the box, but this would also vary according to devices. It also supports all Samsung accessories such as the Samsung Gear VR, Gear 360 and many more.
