The next Note will be here in just three weeks.
Plenty ofGalaxy Note 7rumors have been floating around over the past few weeks, and we’ve even seen some pretty legitimate-looking press renders surface. One of the longest standing rumors associated with the upcoming handset is its naming scheme – willSamsungcontinue its numerical trend and call it the Galaxy Note 6, or will the phone be named Galaxy Note 7 to be more in line with the Galaxy S line?
We finally have an official answer. Samsung has just announced that the Galaxy Note 7 will be officially unveiled on Tuesday, August 2.
The Unpacked even will take place at 11am EST/10am CST in New York. Additionally, simultaneous launch events will take place in Rio de Janeiro at 12pm and in London at 4pm. Of course, you’ll also be able to catch the live stream of the New York even atSamsung.com.
Alright, alright… let’s talk about that name. Why is Samsung going with Galaxy Note 7 instead of 6? Here’s the official statement from the company:

So what are we expecting out of the new Note? Based ona few reports, the Note 7 is rumored to sport a 5.7-inch Quad HD AMOLED display, 6GB of RAM, a 12MP rear camera,a curved displayand evenan iris scanner.
