After the US, Canada will also get SD820-powered Galaxy Note7

Himanshu, 09 August, 2016

Canada might have got the Exynos-powered Galaxy S7 and S7 edge, but that won't be the case with the Galaxy Note7 as Samsung has confirmed that the country will get the Qualcomm-powered variant of its newest flagship smartphone.

This will make Canada the second country after the US to get the SD820-powered Note7. While the exact reason behind the move isn't yet known, reports say a single variant for both the US and Canada would simplify shipping to the North American market.

The Samsung Galaxy Note7 is set to launch in the US and Canada on August 19.
