Samsung had a hard task in making the Galaxy Note 7 stand out from its two already impressive phones of 2016 to 2017, The Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 Edge. But it seems to have done a fantastic job, if my first impressions are anything to go by. The Korean giant’s latest phablet is a tantalising prospect.
Yet, a lot of the actual specs have been plucked straight from other Samsung phones. But the typical Note mainstays are still here, S-Pen included, and it’s the first phone to possess iris-scanning tech and a mobile-HDR display.
It’s been the case that the Galaxy S series is for mass-market and the Note line is for the enthusiast, but I think that might just change.
I won’t cover the basic specs in too much detail in this hands-on, as they're close to identical to the S7's. The Note 7 runs on the same CPU as the Galaxy S7, and there’s still 4GB of RAM. Some might be disappointed that Samsung didn’t match the OnePlus 3 and its needless 6GB of RAM, but I can almost unequivocally say you won't notice a difference. It’s also got the same camera setup as the Galaxy S7, which happens to be the best in the business right now.
