Samsung Galaxy Note7 hands-on: First impressions

August 2 2016
Last year Samsung focused on its Galaxy S6 cash cow and the Note5 got slightly overlooked (certainly in Europe where it was replaced by the S6 edge+). This year the Note is back, stronger than ever.

Big disappointment: larger S7 edge with S pen. Common Huawei, I'm waiting for the Mate 9 now but with the dedicated memory card slot with dual sim. If you use the second sim slot for the memory card, the phone becomes useless; please be wise as Chinese as..

    5.7" isn't simply enough. Damn it. :/

      really samsung i mean really

      no 6 gb ram, all s7 s7 edge note 5 and s6 edge plus has 4 gb ram so what is advantage of buying note 7 then

      3500 mah battery, s7 edge has 5.5 inch screen and has 3600 mah battery you have 0.2 inch more screen size it has to be at least equal to that

      5.7 inch screen with the same 2560*1440 resolution you are using for ages

      i cannot see any reason for old samsung note customers to change their phones especially for note 4 users

      samsung gone one step forward with s7 and s7 edge but they deliberately ruing note series in 2 years row

          I can bet there'll be comments about not having Nougat from the start, let's just wait to see when the upgrade will come and if it's not heavy enough to lag (probably won't)
          cool feature being able to use the pen under water (with the restrains of the 1m obviously) not that lots of ppl would use it but cool none the less, i'll wait to test the edge feature with the pen to see if it's worth buying ^_^
          thx gsmarena for the fast hands-on

            Considering that this is the only series of Samsung that I like, I'm happy with this phone. Pricing's obviously gonna be too high for me to buy, so I'll be waiting for dem discounts xD
