Over the days we have been learning news about this new terminal, and today, when there is still more than a month for the official presentation we already know a lot of information about this new Galaxy Note.
We could almost say that in the presentation event we are going to see few surprises, unless Samsung has decided to keep some tricks up its sleeve, something that does not usually happen. So that you can be fully informed, today we are going to offer everything we know about the new Samsung Galaxy Note 7.

Several weeks ago, several leaks and even Samsung itself, through some of its private spokespersons, confirmed that The next Galaxy Note would be dubbed the Galaxy Note 7, leaving the Galaxy Note 6 on the way..
The explanation is quite simple and even understandable. If next August 2 Samsung presented a Galaxy Note 6, many users might think that we are facing a terminal "backward", since for example the Galaxy S6 or iPhone 6 are already outdated models. Launching the Galaxy Note 7 directly, means updating, and putting the Note family at the level of the devices that are currently on the market, at least as far as its name is concerned.
Except for a big and huge surprise, the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 will be Samsung's next flagship, leaving the Galaxy Note 6 forgotten and on the way.
Curved screen, without the last name edge
What began as an experiment on the Galaxy Note 4 edge, ended up being a success with the Samsung Galaxy S6 edge. The Galaxy edge S7 It sells much more than the normal version of the flagship of the South Korean company and according to many leaks the bet on the new Galaxy Note 7 will be solely for a curved screen.
Just yesterday there were also several leaks of this new smartphone and some of its covers, where we could see and confirm the curved screen of the Galaxy Note 7, although it seems that we will see how the last name edge disappears. Regarding the size of this screen, we could see how stays at 5,7 inches or even as it grows to 5,8.
The screen could even have an area enabled to use especially with the S-Pen so characteristic of the devices of the Galaxy Note family. This is one of the few details that we will have to confirm on August 2 at the presentation event.
Iris scanner
One of the great novelties that this Galaxy Note 7 will bring with it is a iris scanner, which at the moment we have not been able to see in any Samsung device or in another terminal of a certain entity. The South Korean company will be the first to dare to incorporate this technology into a so-called high-end smartphone.
Fingerprint sensors are already common in most devices on the market, whatever their range, but an iris scanner is going one step further. Unlocking the device with our eye or being able to authorize purchases will be some of the things that we can do with this sensor of the Galaxy Note 7.
To know all the information about these interesting characteristics of the new flagship of the South Korean company, we will have to wait until we can get our hands on the new Note 7 to be able to squeeze it and test it to exhaustion.
Characteristics and specifications
- Super Amoled screen with 5,7-inch QHD resolution, although it is not ruled out that we could go up to 5,8 inches
- Qualcomm Snapdragon 821 or Exynos 8893 processor
- RAM memory of 6GB
- Internal storage of 64, 128 and up to possibly 256 GB. In all cases we can expand this storage using microSD cards
- Rear camera with a 12 megapixel sensor about which at the moment we do not know too many details, although everything indicates that it could look very much like the Galaxy S7
- Android 6.0.1 operating system with the new TouchWiz customization layer
More battery that will offer us greater autonomy
About the battery the rumors point to different places and is that some speak that the battery could stay at 3.600 mAh, while others are inclined that it will go up to 4.000 mAh. Taking into account that the Galaxy Note 5 offered us a battery with 3.000 mAh there is no doubt that the new Samsung Galaxy note 7 will offer us more battery and with greater autonomy.
Once again according to rumors, the new Note 7 will be able to offer us an autonomy of up to 20 hours of video playback, with the screen brightness at maximum. This without a doubt, if confirmed, would be something exceptional and it is that it would offer us users that hardly another similar device can match.
If the worst expectations are confirmed, that is to say that the new Samsung terminal has 3.600 mAh batteryLike the Galaxy S7, it will not be bad news either, as this smartphone has been criticized for some aspects, but never for its battery and the autonomy it offers.
Greater resistance
It is not that the previous ones were not resistant, I myself still have a Galaxy Note that has survived dozens of falls and many incidents of all kinds, but according to the well-known Evan Blass this Galaxy Note 7 will be even more resistant than its predecessors.
And is that the new phablet of the South Korean firm will have the IP68 certification that makes it waterproof and it allows us, for example, to submerge the device for at least 30 minutes. This is the same certification that members of the Galaxy S7 family have.
Do you think Samsung will reserve any surprises for the presentation of its new Galaxy Note 7 that, as we have already said, will take place on August 2?.
