Samsung Galaxy Note 7 launch set for August 2

Samsung Galaxy Note 7 will be launched on August 2, confirmed the South-Korean company in a new blogpost announcing the big release. Leaks and rumours had indicated the Galaxy Note 7 will launch on August 2, and they got the date right.
Samsung Galaxy Note 7 will be the new smartphone in the Note series, and the company is technically skipping a number in this generation. While the previous version was Note 5, Samsung has gone ahead and confirmed the upcoming edition will be called Galaxy Note 7, not Note 6. This also means the Note 7 is more in line with the names of the new S7, S7 edge flagship and actually makes more marketing sense for the company.
Samsung in its blogpost announcing the date, gave reasons as to why the new phone is called Galaxy Note 7. The post reads, “First, the Galaxy Note7 will complement our Galaxy S7 and S7 edge, and unify our product portfolio. Second, the Galaxy Note7 will minimize confusion about the latest mobile technology from Samsung, and provide full alignment with Galaxy S smartphone.” The Note 7 name was also leaked earlier, so that’s another thing the rumour mills have got right.

Samsung Galaxy Note 7 launch will take place in New York at 11.00 am EDT (8.30 pm IST) and the company will host simultaneous launch events in Rio de Janeiro at noon and in London at 4:00 pm. The Rio launch is not surprising; Samsung has even announced a special Olympics edition Galaxy S7 edge smartphone.
Samsung Galaxy Note 7 specifications were recently leaked on the AnTuTu app, which showcased a version with 4GB RAM, Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow, 5.7-inch QHD Super AMOLED display,12MP Dual Pixel rear camera plus and IP68 certification. It also reported that Samsung Note 7 will include a bigger 4000 mAh battery. One of the criticisms in the Note 5 was that Samsung reduced the battery from 3,600 mAh to 3000 mAh.
Samsung Galaxy Note 7 is also rumoured to feature an Iris scanner, and the dual-edge display technology seen on the Galaxy S7 edge.
We’ll have to wait and see what Samsung unveils on August 2, but there’s a good chance the leaks will continue to reveal more about the upcoming smartphone.

Samsung Galaxy Note7 tipped to hit stores on launch day

It has been just a few hours since Samsung announced the Galaxy Note7, unveiling details of the day of the launch. Now a new report emerging from South Korean says that the flagship phablet will be made available in stores on the day of the launch itself.

Samsung Galaxy Note7, which is slated to get unveiled in New York (and also in Rio De Janeiro and London) on Aug. 2, will be available for purchase soon after the launch, Korea ET News reported, citing company insiders.

This is the first time in Samsung's history that the company is not following its usual pattern that surrounds the release of its devices. Samsung earlier used to take two to three weeks to make the flagship smartphone available in the market.

It is believed that the company wants to get a headstart over its arch rival Apple, which is expected to announce the new iPhone 7 series in September.

Last year, Samsung preponed the launch of the Galaxy Note 5 by a month and released it a couple of weeks ahead of iPhone 6S series launch.

This time, the South Korean company has asked supply partners to stock up their inventory with Galaxy Note7 units before Aug. 2.

If they succeed in delivering the goods, Samsung will have more than one and half months to sell Galaxy Note7 with no competition, which will help the company carry forward the success of its Galaxy S7 series. The latter has reportedly outsold iPhone 6S series in developed markets since its launch in February.
