The Galaxy Note 7 is said to be shielded with IP68 waterproof IP rating which certifies it for depths beyond 1m. Personally, I’ve watched the device on that and confirmed it true. The device also comes with a metal frame and flanked by two symmetrically curved sheets of Gorilla Glass 5. OMG, Gorilla Glass 5, that’s pretty amazing.
So, looking at the device specs-wise, it features a 5.7" Super AMOLED formula screen that is also curved like an edge device and the display comes with HDR support. The HDR support is a feature that is culled from a 4k TV that shows more scene and color with high contrast. The device also comes with an S-pen, as the stylus pen leaves note on screen always, and guess what, you can use it to write underwater, it also comes with text glass magnifier, translator tool and GIF creator.
The Galaxy Note 7 also secures itself with iris scanner and soonest, it will replace fingerprint reader on securing Samsung pay, knox and other personal files which is hidden in the secured folder. You can also use it to secure any other third party apps.
As promised, the Note 7 also comes with the USB Type-C, as it’s the first Samsung device to feature that. The device also comes with wireless and quick charging features which can quickly fill the 3,500mAh battery that is packed in the device.
