...is ridiculous

Samsung cares so much about gimmicks while removing imporatn stuff like IR and removable battery. Solid downgrade

BTW iris recognition only works in well lit environment. Also you need to put the phone in eye level. It's ridiculously unergonomic idea that only looks futuristic but actually is useless in anything outside movies.

    It's about time Samsung decided to upgrade the front camera on it's flagship line of devices. It's been stagnating since the S6 and rivals already have far better offerings. Heck, even resolution-shy Apple (remember the 1.2MP front cam on the 2016 iPhone SE?!) can boast of a 7MP selfie cam in the iPhone 7. Bring it on Samsung!

It's just not funny, it never was and it never will. All the "Note7 exploding feature" joke manages to accomplish is to make the user lose all his credibility. If you are looking to garner laughs, try some other line.

          what about the exploding feature from note 7 ....?
          so is more densely packed than note 7 so battery flaw might remain the same
