Samsung Galaxy Note 7 Name Confirmed By Evan Blass – Details Leaked
United Kingdom owners of a Galaxy S7 or Galaxy Note 5 are now getting the latest July security update which includes both of the security patches released by Google on July 1 and July 5. What’s more, the corners of the device – while round – are a little more squared off. Some reports also even offered potential pricing details and release dates for the handset, and a new rumor claims you’ll be able to order the Galaxy Note 7 a lot sooner than you think. But what is “Y-OCTA”?
From OnePlus 3’s Optic AMOLED display to Galaxy Note 7 being outfitted with a Y-OCTA panel, we are not sure who comes up with these fancy names, but they are really starting to confuse us. Samsung Galaxy Unpacked event will take place at 11:00 a.m. EDT in NY on August 2, 2016.
Together Samsung and Apple account for about 66 per cent of the smart phone sales in the United States.
Recently, retail data insights and consulting business Kantar Retail reported that Samsung’s Galaxy 7 line of smartphones grabbed 16 per cent of total sales in the U.S. during the three months ended May 31, exceeding the 14.6 per cent of sales for the iPhone 6s.
If the rumors and reports are true, Samsung’s work on the Galaxy Note 7 should be enough to get fans excited about the new smartphone. With taxes included, the price of the Note 7 could possibly hit over $1000 for the high-end variant. The phone will be underpinned by either the company’s own Exynos 8890 or Qualcomm’s 820, depending in the region where it’s sold.
There’s no word yet on how much the Galaxy Note 7 will cost, but it’s expected to start at around £650 SIM-free. But since the Galaxy Note 7 will sport a larger sized display and body, the case for the phablet should be priced higher.
It was long speculated that this waterproof feature of Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge will be translated to the Galaxy Note 7, and the import website is the first to have leaked information that confirms it. But Samsung put all these wild goose chases to rest itself by answering this.
