For months, we waited for the Samsung flagship. Today is Samsung Galaxy Note 7 launch date with its strongest specs and dazzling design, which are said to start a new trend in smartphone world.

Samsung Galaxy Note 7 launch: new curvy design and S Pen updates

Samsung continues applying curved screen on its smartphones as its signature. Similar to Galaxy S7 Edge, Galaxy Note 7 launch today is also a curved edge version. The difference between two type of curved edges is that Note 7 curves are more narrowly than the S7 Edge. The phone’s sides curve slightly and slope less in order for the users to efficiently operate with the S Pen. Despite tight curves, Galaxy Note 7 still flaunts a 5.7-inch 2K display which is slightly larger than the 5.5-inch of Edge device. Galaxy Note 7 is also the first smartphone in the world which supports Corning Gorilla Glass 5.

Alongside the Galaxy Note 7 is a stylus, just like other Note and Edge members. However, it is a smaller pen tip than the Note 5’s, which is supposed to make it more accurate and precise. It’s also twice as sensitive, with pressure levels is 4,096 higher than 2,048 in the Note 5. The most interesting change is such new stylus is also water and dust resistant just like the phone. So in case you need to send an email or message when you are in a bath tub or a swimming pool, just feel free to do it. You can use it when raindrops plop all over the screen as well.

Those are not all the new thing coming up with Galaxy Note 7 launch today, one more feature: iris scanner. With this kind of security, the disabled now can unlock their phones with just their eyeballs, which is easy and fast. More important, the iris scanner now appears to protect your apps which include your private photos, passport, banking information, not just only the phone.
