Samsung seems to be all determined to give some tough competition to iPhone and its latest flagship clearly hints at the big leap Samsung is planning to take.
Though the smartphone giant is still reticent about its impending next-generation smartphone - Galaxy Note 6, but thanks to technology, many of its details have already leaked out. As per the speculations doing rounds, the device is supposed to release in August. It would be interesting to not that by this time; Samsung's Galaxy Note 5 would've completed its one year by then.
Some of the highlights as drawn from the leaked information indicate at the smartphone being decked with the following:
Reports state that Galaxy Note 6 will have USB Type-C port, perhaps a USB 3.1. The device may even release a novel Gear VR that would support a USB Type-C connector.
Currently, it's speculated that Samsung is testing the waters with two models: one that has a flat display and other which features a curved screen.
Let us go through the other specifications Galaxy Note 6 is supposed to have:
The device will have Qualcomm Snapdragon 823 which we believe will be 18% faster than the previous lightning Snapdragon 820 as was seen in Galaxy S7, HTC 10 as well as LG G5. In terms of power – Galaxy Note 6 is going to be more efficient owing to the shift to 10nm manufacturing process.
Coming to the storage part and the IP67 water resistance - Samsung has given Galaxy S7 IP68 water resistance and this is to follow for Note 6 too. The device will have 256GB UFS 2.0 of storage. As this would improve productivity which was earlier missing in Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 Edge as they had 32GB limited storage. There are high chances of Galaxy Note 6 also incorporating the MicroSD expandable storage.
Furthermore, the device is also said to have Android Greeks – that would never let the Note 6 sit still and offer the same optics to Galaxy S7, similar to what Note 5 did to Galaxy S6 in 2015.
While Note 6 will not have Samsung's extraordinary new sensor, it is said to enhance the previous class leading photography of Galaxy S7 which had a 12MP, F1.7 aperture, OIS. Note 6 will feature the infrared autofocus, which will help improve the photo experience.
However, critics state that as Galaxy S7 too had Focus Pixels and it's already known as the fastest focusing camera smartphone, coming up with infrared autofocus might pave path for some trivial issues.
Note 6 is also said to feature on USB-C, quite like Apple MacBook. It will be a reversible port, less tricky to use as compared to the regular micro USB. Also, experts suggest that if Samsung brings in the USB 3.1 standard, then Note 6 will surely back USB Power Delivery 2.0, which apparently will allow for increased power and faster charging. Plus, the USB-C would be capable of carrying HDMI/DisplayPort video, which means you could plug your Note 6 straight into a TV.
Along with these speculations that highlight features of Note 6 – it's heard that Note 6 would be more of a laptop-mobile hybrid – whoa, if this comes true, it would certainly be a big transition by Samsung.
Talking into count all the rumors that have surfaced so far, if Samsung Galaxy Note 6 certainly can live up to the hype so created – it won't be wrong to say that it will make iPhone owners think over their choice!
