Samsung may be planning to completely ditch the flat-screen model from its upcoming Galaxy S8 in favor of a dual-edge display.

The biggest difference between the two is the Note 7’s S-Pen stylus. Before Koh replached Shin as Samsung’s mobile boss, Shin reinvigorated interest in the Galaxy line by releasing the Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 Edge, a pair of handsets that traded plastic materials for a premium construction using glass and metal.

Did you know, for instance, that the Note 7 is employing the toughest 7000 series aluminum alloy for the frame and the sides?

Samsung finally took the wraps off its highly-anticipated Galaxy Note 7 last week. Both devices are expected to sport the same 12-megapixel rear camera and 5-megapixel front cameras. The timing is key as it comes just a month before Apple is expected to unveil the iPhone 7.

Another good thing that each consumer is bound to enjoy is its capacity to record 4K X 2K videos at 60 frames per second and downloading speed will also be faster at 980 Mb/s because of the new X16 base band. We’ve heard rumors like this before and Apple pulled the feature, so while it is exciting, make sure you check before dropping your iPhone 7 into the water later this year. It also costs more of course, but with the Note 5 never getting an official United Kingdom release it’s a lot easier to obtain. Samsung Android smartphones in fact hold the top three spots in the list of top-selling Android handsets around the world. That would make it 1.3 times stronger and 1.2 times more scratch-resistant than the metal which Samsung used for the Galaxy S7.

Apple has planned a redesign in progress for the fall of 2017 which also happens to be the 10 anniversary of the device. Samsung says that it plans to put more focus on smartphone models with the curved screen in the future.
