Samsung Galaxy Note 7 official looking teaser leaks ahead of launch, expected soon

The next Samsung Galaxy Note phablet is expected to skip the 6 name and jump right to Galaxy Note 7, and that’s been backed up with a recent leak.

An anonymous source of Phone Arena sent in a typically Samsung-looking teaser that shows a stylus writing on the edge of a phone shaped like a seven. It has a caption pun that reads: “Write on the edge of something great,” backing up those rumours that the next Note will come in a curved edge version.

Of course this could just be a good fake, but with rumours of a 2 August launch, an official tease soon would make sense.

The Samsung Galaxy Note 7 will reportedly skip the 6 name in order to be in line with the Galaxy S7 and Apple’s next iPhone 7.

The rumoured specs for the Galaxy Note 7 suggest it will feature a 5.8-inch Super AMOLED display with curved edge or dual curved edges. It should be running either a Qualcomm Snapdragon 823 or Exynos octa-core CPU backed by at least 6GB of RAM. The camera is expected to be a 12-megapixel snapper like that featured on the Galaxy S7. The handset is also tipped to come with a hefty 4000mAh battery that can charge wirelessly.

Samsung is expected to launch the Galaxy Note 7 on 2 August, but we should see plenty more leaks and teasers before then.
