summary

Note 7 on many important points an amazing phone which equal. It combines a large display with a compact design, looks and refined luxury, sits comfortably in the hand, has a good battery life and excellent camera. He also has 64GB of storage and a micro SD slot, a water- and dust-proof housing, a fine stylus for drawing and writing, and a great display. In negatives we have to search a bit, but they are there. The software is just not always fast and smooth, the speaker would have to be better on such an expensive phone and the price difference with the S7 and S7 edge is large compared to what you get in return. Also requires the glass design almost a screen protector and case, the iris scanner is less convenient to use than the fingerprint scanner, which is also just a tad less than the competition. But anyone who can live well with those hiccups, has the Note 7, a high-class phone.

The Galaxy s phones Samsung have for years the bulk of the attention and the manufacturer sells the most copies, but they are not the most powerful or most complete phones that casts the South Korean smartphone maker. That honor goes years to the Note series, which will appear a little later and often just inherits newer hardware. What also plays a role, of course, is the stylus, which allows more functions than do the normal Galaxy S phones.

The Note was the first of a series of experiments from Samsung. The company spent several years in succession an experimental product along to IFA electronics fair, which takes place in Berlin every early September. In 2011, the Note and in 2012 the Galaxy Camera, a camera with Android. The following year showed Samsung first see a smartwatch that scholarship and a VR headset in the form of the Gear VR.

It does not expect that its product is the same perfect in the first version and try out a lot in his quest for the best product that can make it. The Galaxy Camera, we have not seen in smart watches Samsung needed a generation or five to impress and the Gear VR has also become an important accessory for the telephones of the South Korean automaker.

let’s clarify one issue but equal; Samsung has beaten the Note 6 to align the naming with the Galaxy S7 series. That sounds logical, but the manufacturer hit in the Benelux also the Note 5 on, bringing in the lowlands the Note 7 after the Note 4 suddenly

One thing has remained the same in each case.; the Note 7 again has an S Pen, which he owes to the name discs, and which now has more accuracy and more features. Another novelty is the iris scanner, which we saw earlier in the Lumia 950 and 950 Microsoft XL. Also new is the price. Note phones have always been expensive, but with a suggested retail price of 849 euros each purchaser of the Note 7 after purchase will have quite a lighter wallet.
