Samsung
Electronics continues to drive the smartphone market with the Galaxy Note7 by
building on the company’s category-defining leadership with innovative features
that set a new standard for large-screen devices. With refined craftsmanship,
premium materials and a unique, symmetrical edge design, the Galaxy Note7
features:
- A water resistant
body and S Pen (IP68)*
- Top-of-the-line
security that combines Samsung Knox with biometric authentication including a
new iris scanning feature
- Immersive
entertainment capabilities with HDR video streaming capabilities.
The GalaxyNote7 strikes a balance between work and play, enabling people to achieve more
than what they thought possible on a smartphone.
“The
Galaxy Note7 combines productivity and entertainment, and strong security
features. Powering a robust ecosystem, it is the ideal device for those who
want to achieve more in life,” said DJ Koh, President of Mobile Communications
Business, Samsung Electronics. “Life moves faster than ever now so we created
the Galaxy Note7 to move with users – helping them get things done more easily
wherever, whenever.”
Galaxy Note7 S Pen: Quickly and Easily
Bring Ideas to Life
The
enhanced Galaxy Note7 S Pen is more than just a writing tool – it is the
gateway to getting more done efficiently and accurately. Users can bring ideas
to life the moment inspiration strikes without unlocking the screen by using
Screen off memo and simply pinning the memo to the Always On Display. The S Pen
also gives users the ability to easily create and share GIF animations with
Smart Select, and new Air Command functions, including Magnify and Translate,
enable users to zoom in on the screen or convert languages by simply hovering. It
is even easier to access the best of the S Pen’s creative abilities with
Samsung Notes, a new unified app allowing users to jot down handwritten notes,
draw, or edit memos from one location.
The new S
Pen writes with ease and precision. The smaller 0.7mm tip and improved pressure
sensitivity provides a real pen-like experience. With the peace of mind that
IP68 water resistant provides, the Galaxy Note7 S Pen lets users jot down their
thoughts without interruption, even when the screen gets wet.
Advanced Security: Now in the Blink of
an Eye
Samsung
understands the importance of keeping content on your phone protected. Coupled
with Samsung Knox, an industry-leading security platform, the Galaxy Note7
provides heightened security and privacy, with highly advanced biometric
authentication, including fingerprint scanner and iris scanning technology. The
Galaxy Note7 offers more authentication options that can be used
interchangeably depending on how you use your phone, where you are, or what
you’re doing.
The Galaxy
Note7 instills a new level of user confidence with Secure Folder, a separated
folder that adds an extra layer of security to keep private and personal
information safe. The iris recognition technology will also be used to
authenticate secure purchases people make with Samsung Pay. The Galaxy Note7
will also support Samsung Pass, bringing authentication such as iris scanning
and fingerprint recognition to more apps and services.
Best-in-Class Entertainment
The phone
is one of the most important screens in a user’s life because it’s with them
all of the time. The Galaxy Note7 features a gorgeous, curved 5.7-inch QHD

is ready to stream HDR video, enabling a cinema-like experience including
brighter colors and a deeper black, which ensure users get the full experience
that the filmmaker intended. The Galaxy Note7 also features Game Pack,
available through Google Play, including top game titles, an easier redemption process
and new user benefits.

the Galaxy Note7 with the new Gear VR powered by Oculus, users can experience
premium virtual reality almost anywhere. Galaxy Note7’s incredible Super AMOLED
screen and powerful processor delivers an ultra-immersive experience. The vast

center of the action. Whether it’s next level gaming or journeying to places
users have never been before, there’s always something new to discover.

who live to create, tell stories and transport people to entirely new worlds,
the Galaxy Note7 can be used with the new high-resolution (3840×1920) Gear 360
camera, to capture, edit and share 360-degree images videos on the go. These

Glass 5. Although the Galaxy Note7 features a large-screen, the unique
front-to-back symmetrical dual-edge curve remains balanced and light with the
sleek feel users have come to love from the Galaxy series. The curved screen
lets the Galaxy Note7 add the powerful Edge Panel for one-tap user access to applications,
news and functions.
