With all the information out, there are only a few surprises Samsung can reveal at the event. Excited?
While yesterday the Note 7 renders had leaked, here is the box of the Note 7 and the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 itself.
The phone itself, just like the press renders is a bigger boxier version of the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge. The Galaxy Note 7 has a dual Edge QuadHD display as also mentioned on the box.
This is the box of the Exynos variant , hence it mentions a Octa Core processor. You will get the 12 MP plus 5 MP camera configuration and the IP68 rating has been confirmed.
Previous leaks have confirmed that the Note 7 will be available in two variants, an Exynos variant and a Snapdragon Variant.
Samsung will launch the new Galaxy Note 7 today along with the new Gear VR, The company should launch the Galaxy Note 7 in India within the week.
With the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 set to launch tomorrow, the full renders fro the press have leaked to show the dual edged Note phone from the company. The look of the phone falls in with many other previous leaks, talking about a new design stylus and iris dimply which can been seen on the handset.
The Samsung Galaxy Note 7 is expected to be launched in three colours as seen before and will feature an Exynos variant and a Snapdragon 820 variant, with 3 GB or 4 GB of RAM respectively.
Samsung is betting big on the Iris scanner for locking up of individual apps and the main phone to make it more secure in lieu of most businesses opting out of using an Android handset.
The new S Pen is expected to have some fun tricks up its sleeve. Along with a similar camera setup when compared to the Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge.
Another leak shows the new Samsung Gear VR in an all Black variant which looks excellent and should work with all the latest Samsung handsets. See below for comparisons of the Note 7 with the S7 Edge courtesy @Onleaks
Samsung is working fast towards the launch of the Galaxy Note 7, in an attempt to beat Apple’s next iPhone to the market. But India it seems is not keen on the next smartphone from Samsung.
The Samsung Galaxy Note 7 which is expected to have a dual edge design, an Iris Scanner and a new tricks up its S-Pen stylus is not something that users are looking to buy.
Rajiv Gupta, a 32 year old CA, and an avid Galaxy Note user says :
I Have used every note device since its original launch, and am highly disappointed in the lack of growth of the segment. The phone this year seems to be playing off the iris scanner gimmick and the S7 or the iPhone 7 seem to be my choice
Varun Sharma, a 22 year old Student of Delhi University, who has also owned two generation of Galaxy Note smartphones claims that the market is far more fierce than it used to be, and budget smartphones are claiming a large portion of the high end pot.
I used to prefer buying Samsung flagships, but the last note’s S-pen was really troublesome and Samsung did nothing to fix the problem. I have used the OnePlus 3 and am waiting to buy the Soft gold variant, because i expect the Note 7 to be priced beyond Rs. 60000 and that makes absolutely no sense.
Many other people claim that the rumors are not matching up to expectations of the Smartphone. Samsung will launch the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 in India early August, tiring in with global launches, however, with the trend, the phone is expected to be priced in the Rs 60,000 price bracket.
Samsung may yet be in trouble, with a lot of people waiting for the next iPhone and the other opportunities in the market that include the likes of LeEco and OnePlus that seem to be offering flagship specs for almost half the price.
It also seems that Samsung will not have anything exclusive to the Galaxy Note 7 this year, with iP68 on the Galaxy S7 and Dual Edge on the Galaxy S7 Edge already launched earlier this year, the Note 7 will heavily rest on the Iris Scanner, which may not be enough to woo customers. Unless, the company reveals a new feature that gets everyone excited.
So will you buy the Samsung Galaxy Note 7?

The Samsung Galaxy Note 7 may as well be the most leaked handset from Samsung. With new information out almost every day, it seems there is little left to imagination for the upcoming launch of the Samsung Flagship.
Steve Hemmerstoffer put some interesting images of the upcoming Note 7 claiming it to be a Note 7 prototype. The images seem to be pretty accurate. The iris scanner appears above the main display, there seems to be an S7 Edge style dual edge on the display. The phone also appears to be slim and identical in design the to S7 edge with a larger and wider screen. One image shows off the lock screen with the camera and phone shortcuts and 3 notifications. ]
Recent benchmark leaks have put the specifications of the Note 7 lower than earlier expectations of a Snapdragon 823 powering the phone, with information now pointing towards a Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 processor with Adreno 530 GPU, another variant with Exynos 7420 processor was also leaked. The Note 7 will also carry a maximum 4 GB of RAM as opposed to the expected 6 GB previously leaked.
In an internal memo obtained by iGyaan, the Note 7 is also expected to have two new features to in the Air View menu, along with a confirmation of the Iris scanner and a border-less display expected to be the Edge Display. Earlier leaks have also pointed at three colour options of the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 with a gold option missing this time.
The Samsung Galaxy Note 7 will launch on August 2 a whole month prior to the usual launch cycle in order to combat the huge jump to the new Apple iPhone claim experts.
But, as the launch draws closer and closer the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 details seems to be clearing out. Two separate Galaxy Note 7 devices are doing the rounds of benchmarks and they not only have different chipsets but different specifications too.
The first one spotted on benchmark site Geekbench, with the model number SM-N930F appears to be powered by a 1.50 GHz octa-core Exynos 7420 processor with 3GB of RAM and runs on Android 7.0 Nougat. This variant scores 909 points in single core test and 3768 points in the multi-core test.
A second Samsung Galaxy Note 7 SM-N930V, is listed at AnTuTu with a qHD display resolution of 2560 x 1440 pixel. It runs, Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow OS but has a Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 processor with Adreno 530 GPU, and not the rumored Snapdragon 823 we have been hearing about this phone also has 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage which matches with the internal memo obtained by iGyaan a few days back.
Rumors of a Galaxy Note 7 running on 6 GB of RAM with the Snapdragon 823 chipset seem to be diminishing as we get closer to the launch. It also seems that Samsung may think that 3 GB of RAM is sufficient for markets where it will sell the Exynos variant, markets that include India, Malaysia and China.

With Leaks, there’s always a chance product updates, features, and some or all details will be changed or cancelled altogether. As with all rumors, nothing is 100% until it’s officially announced. In this case, we have obtained a note circulating within Samsung Mobile USA. So we find this information to have a validity of over 95%

Samsung’s Galaxy Note 7, which leaked in images recently has some more tricks up its sleeve. According to an internal Samsung memo, obtained by iGyaan, the new Note phone, which is already expected to launch with a new iP68 design much like the Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge, will also feature a newly designed S Pen Stylus. Apart from the physical appearance of the new S Pen, its capabilities are said to have improved, including a newer version of Bluetooth LE which will allow for longer usage and more accurate proximity warnings.
The Air View window which has traditionally basic S Pen apps will also include a new Dictionary and a text to voice Speaking option. A new AOD memo feature, possibly an Always on Demand memo app, could just be an improved version of the S Memo.
The memo also points out that the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 will have a borderless display while this could simply mean an edge display which appears to have no borders, or could be a new edge display.
The Iris Scanner, also leaked heavily, will not only be able to lock the screen but also individual folders, Apps, and documents according to the memo. An unknown aspect of the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 is that the phone also features the Vulcan API, which is already available on the Snapdragon 820 but should also be on the new Snapdragon 823 that the Note 7 is expected to ship with.
The Galaxy Note 7 will have 64 GB of storage and 12 MP dual pixel cameras. There is a good chance that the Note 7 will have the same hybrid SIM tray as seen on the Galaxy S7 and the S7 edge.
There is little time to go for the launch of the next Galaxy Note, which skips the number 6 for being branded as the Samsung Galaxy Note 7. The Phone’s images have been leaked on twitter a few days back courtesy Evan Blass in three colors Black Onyx, Silver Titanium, and Blue Coral.
The renders also show that the phone will have the Galaxy Note 7 branding as seen on the poster leaked earlier.
The new Samsung Galaxy Note 7 will run on a Snapdragon 823 SoC chipset for the US and for global launch an Exynos chipset, the phone will feature an iris scanner, an IP68-certified water-resistant body, a USB Type-C port, and a 4,000 mAh battery.

Renders of the next Galaxy Note phone from Samsung not only come with the details of the design shift but also a name shift. Samsung will reportedly call the next Note device Samsung Galaxy Note 7 to make the Galaxy S and Note series phones align with the nomenclature.
According to leaks from French site Nowhereelse.fr the Galaxy Note 7 will apparently measure 153.5 x 73.9 x 7.9 mm and will also be available in an Edge variant which will replace the Galaxy S6 Edge Plus for 2016.
The renders which the site claims are true, show off a USB Type-C port which falls in line with many of the rumors in the past.
