After last year’s Note 5 didn’t make it to Europe it seems Samsung aren’t making the same mistake again.

“The two flagships from Samsung are probably best seen as two flavors of the same phone, and so it’s impressive that both of them were in the top three”, Jan Dawson, chief analyst at Jackdaw Research, told us today.
The Note 7 is available for preorder starting August 3 and will land in stores on August 19. In addition, the Note 7 also includes a fingerprint scanner under the home button, which glasses wearers can use instead of having to remove their specs to get the iris scanner to work.
The screen also offers support for Samsung’s new S Pen stylus, which is twice as sensitive to pressure as its predecessor and comes with a slimmer tip for more precise note-taking. The device comes with many new features, including a Power Saving Mode that allows users to adjust display resolution.
Another most intriguing feature is the 5.7-inch HDR curved display, which is similar to that of the Galaxy S7 Edge.
The S Pen come with the same IP68 certification as the Galaxy Note 7 can be used under water.

If you pre-order the new Galaxy Note 7 with these carriers then you will be given a option to get the Gear Fit2 or a 256GB memory card for free. A United States version will feature a Snapdragon 820 process while the rest of the world will get the Exynos chipset. However, in some countries, the phone will ship with Exynos 8890 instead of S820. Other than the stylus, the Galaxy Note 7 also brings several other enhancements and features to the device versus Galaxy Note 5. Xiaomi will allegedly also pack in a larger 4,000mAh battery, and the device could undercut Samsung with a price as low as $526 in China. It has the same Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 processor, same 4GB of RAM, same quick charging and quick wireless charging, and same 12-megapixel camera with f/1.7 lens and optical stabilization as the S7 series.
