The Note 7 will have Android Marshmallow with TouchWiz UI onboard. We expect this to be the place to get the best Galaxy Note 7 United Kingdom deal.

Samsung has also made some subtle changes to the S Pen, which is what makes the Note a Note.

The Note 7 differs in that it has support for microSD cards and 64GB of internal storage, compared to the S7’s 32GB, and its battery has been increased to 3,500mAh over the Note 5’s 3,000mAh cell. Samsung has also packed Galaxy Note 7 with the camera modul found on Galaxy S7 and S7 edge.

Samsung says you will be able to use both the smartphone and S Pen in torrential rain since they’re both IP68 water resistant, that means they can cope underwater for 30 minutes.

According to Samsung Taiwan, the brand ranked as the largest vendor in the Taiwan market in terms of smartphone models with a display larger than 5-inches during the period between January 2015 and June 2016.

Unfortunately it doesn’t look like Samsung will bundle the new Gear VR with pre-orders of the Note 7 like that had for the S7 launch a few months back. Samsung has included more features in the dual edge display and given it more pixel space as well. The Note is, of course, well known for its extremely smooth “S-Pen” or its little stylus which works with great pressure sensitivity on the surface of the device’s screen. Unlike the iPhone, the Note 7 features an AMOLED display, wireless charging, expandable memory, a penlike stylus and water resistance.

Inside, Galaxy Note 7 is powered with Exynos 8890 quad-core 2.6GHz and 4GB of RAM.

In addition to its fingerprint sensor, this new phone has an iris scanner. The extra accuracy is ideal for artists and note-takers alike. The scanner can be used to unlock the phone whilst serving a more important role in Samsung Pass.

Samsung just made fun of one of the biggest changes the new iPhone is expected to have
