The good people over at Mobile Fun have confirmed they will be selling the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 for £749 SIM free and unlocked. However, as 9To5Mac noted so well, its design is not something we can get excited about.

Looking at those features, the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 is truly a promising device.

Memory on the Note 7 is quite impressive since it’ll be external and fits a 256GB microSD, and that’s not including the built-in 64GB of storage. The phone sports a 5.7-inch Quad HD dual- edge Super Amoled display of 1440×2560 pixel resolution protected with Corning Gorilla Glass 5.

The company’s latest large-screen smartphone has been revealed. Its “slimness” is similar to the S7 Edge. Also, unlike the iPhone 6s Plus, the Note 7 has built-in wireless charging standard.

The S Pen has been upgraded with water resistance and twice as fine pressure sensitivity (4,096 levels, as opposed to 2,048 on earlier models). It also features a 3500mAh battery and a USB-C port, although an adapter will be available that supports previous USB cables. Unlocking Note 7 is easier because of this feature-user should look at the camera to unlock his phone, Wired reported. The updated TouchWiz really improves the Android experience.

The idea behind Samsung Pass is to replace your usernames and passwords, and for more than just financial apps.

The main highlight of Galaxy Note smartphones has been their S Pen stylus. Samsung skipped the numbers for obvious reasons – to avoid the confusion buyers had when it came to the Note and S flagships each year. However, even without much innovation implemented, the newly released Note 7 is not bad, as it sticks to what is already proved to work. So far, it offers a lot of features. Reports claimed that the two devices have similarities, though there are notable differences as well. Sprint has not yet announced the pricing part but Verizon has priced tagged the device at $864. It will be priced tagged $849.99.

The exclusive pre-order for Spark customers opens today and runs until the 19th of August when it will be opened up for everyone.
