Yup it does... Samsung do seem to have lost the plot here.
Next nexus will have to be a significant improvement over my 6P though else I may skip upgrading this year... perish the thought !

I've never understood the point of an edged screen, what purpose does it serve other than looking a bit odd ?

I've had a play around with my mates phone which has an edged screen, its not something i would choose.

What sort of time frame are we looking at for the release of the new nexus?

Will the note camera be as good as the S7? That was a lovely camera.

It should as good if not better. They are continuously improving. They could do with dialing back the image sharpening a touch.

Any news on wireless charging out of the box? Haven't seen anything in any of the links so far (also not really done that much digging tbh)

I imagine it will be similar or the same as the S7

Looking even better now.

Was hoping for a silver one as the S7E in silver looks rather natty.

Just need to find an unbranded official ROM when it is released so I can get rid of the O2 bloat and branding that will be slapped on my upgrade

64gb is good, but I'm still hoping for a 128gb or 256gb version.

Add in my 200gb card and I'll be a very happy bunny indeed.

That looks much better!

I've got the Note Edge and love it and it's a great phone. However with my contract up towards the end of the year the Note 7 is looking like a good replacement

 

[JanM]

Damn not already ....

Don't like the fact they changed the usb connector. Just got myself a FLIR One for Android thinking i'd last me a few phones. ARRRGGGG

Russian leader Murtazin says that the Galaxy Note 7 will be capable of pushing 20 hours of video at maximum brightness on a single charge, and that the battery size will be 3,600mAH, the same size battery found in the Galaxy S7 edge:

I've very interested in the Note 7, Been tempted by an S7E for a while now, but am gong to hold off for this.

The clicky home button has to go! One of my few gripes with Samsung.
