New Samsung Galaxy Note 7. Samsung Galaxy Note7 Exynos - Specifications. Software updates

Samsung smartphones seemed to be in the lead. Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge outsold iPhone, while demand for Samsung Galaxy Note 7 exceeded supply in some countries. But cases of battery explosions were a strong blow - Samsung had to recall the entire batch. We can only hope that this deficiency will be corrected soon.

Samsung Galaxy Note 7 - Reviews

But in almost every other way, the Galaxy Note 7 is perfect smartphone with impressive capabilities. Let's take a closer look.

Samsung Galaxy Note 7 design

If you put Samsung Galaxy The Note 7 next to the Galaxy Note 5 will appear much smaller, despite each having a 5.7-inch screen.

The S7 Edge is comfortable to hold, but even it's nowhere near the Note 7. It's truly one of the most convenient smartphones, which we have ever tested.

The aluminum frame is so thin around the edges of the screen that it is difficult to notice, and only feels nicer to the touch than glass. However, there is a minus - the surface ceases to seem ideal as soon as it becomes covered with fingerprints, and in this case this happens very quickly. On silver and blue Samsung Note 7, fingerprints are visible a little less than on black, but this still remains a problem.

Even bigger problems arose with the fragility of the glass, which is easy to break and scratch, despite Corning protection Gorilla Glass 5. Many YouTube videos demonstrate that the screen is scratched even by tools that should not have left a trace, to which Corning simply accused the testers of improperly conducting tests.

IP68 degree of protection means that samsung smartphone You can not only wet the Galaxy Note 7, but also even dive with it underwater, to a shallow depth, but given the problems with the real fragility contradicting the declared one, we do not recommend testing this in practice. In addition, the Galaxy S7 Active was also supposed to be waterproof, but during testing, this was disproved.

Amazing new S Pen

Samsung's S Pen stylus has been a delight since the first models, but the Note 7 is better than ever before. The pen supports 4096 levels of pressure - 2 times more than most other styluses. Artists will certainly be interested in this; the gadget becomes almost as sensitive and responsive to the slightest change in pressure as a professional instrument. The S Pen's 0.7mm tip is close to ballpoint pen standard and glides smoothly across the screen.

Samsung app Notes makes it easy to download and find everything you've created or will create with the S Pen. When you create a new note, you'll have several style options available, one of which is designed specifically for artists. It also supports color mixing to make images drawn with the stylus look like real oil paintings. The pen also works when the screen is off - the note itself is entered into S Note, and this is very convenient when you need to quickly write something down.

When drawing, you can choose from many different brushes, pencils and markers, which opens up ample opportunities, although of course Samsung Notes is far from SketchBook Pro and other professional drawing applications.

Samsung Company prudently added the PEN.UP application, which allows you to share your creations in the same name social network, for S Pen-using artists. You can view their work, discuss the difficulties of drawing, and so on.

Like the smartphone itself, the IP68-rated S Pen is almost completely water-resistant, so in theory you can draw even underwater. In practice, this means that wet hands or accidental exposure to water will not damage the device.

Other new features include the ability to pin notes to the screen for quick access, create and share animated GIFs with Smart Select, translate text into 38 languages ​​with Air Command. There is also a magnifying glass that increases the font size by 300% and the ability to erase everything with one click. All these S Pen features bring the pen to new level.

Specifications of Samsung Galaxy Note 7

Most flagship smartphones Android has nearly identical but still impressive specs, and the Galaxy Note 7 is no exception. He has the same touch screen SuperAMOLED with Quad HD resolution (2560x1440), the same as the S7 Edge, but the diagonal is 5.7 inches, which is about 0.5 centimeters larger.

Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 is the processor of the Note 7 with 4 GB we tested RAM, but other options are possible for other countries. In any case, it's as fast as the S7 Edge, and we didn't notice any lag even when we loaded the phone with heavy tasks.

High performance was proven by excellent benchmark results: Samsung Note 7 received a multi-core score of 5231 in Geekbench 3, 2517 points in 3D Mark Slingshot and 40038 in Quadrant.

You can buy the Galaxy Note 7 with 64GB of storage and it can be expanded with MicroSD cards up to 256GB, which should be more than enough. Like most latest phones Samsung Note 7 supports Samsung Pay.

Amazing camera on Samsung Galaxy Note 7

The same 12-megapixel rear camera and 5-megapixel front camera found on the S7 Edge are present on the Note 7. There is an additional front-facing camera, but it's only used by the iris scanner.

Testing has shown that samsung camera Galaxy Note 7 is no worse, and in some ways better, than the iPhone 6S Plus. The pictures are of excellent quality and quite detailed in any conditions, in any lighting, and the camera itself focuses quickly. Achieve best quality succeeds very rarely.

Pro mode will allow amateur photographers to adjust ISO, adjust white balance and focal length, select color tone, and so on. At the same time, the interface is simple, and you don’t have to be a professional to understand it.

Battery endurance standard for a flagship

Note smartphones are known for their exceptional battery life. autonomous operation, but the Galaxy Note 7 cannot boast of this, and has a standard 3500 mAh battery, the charge of which does not last long. For most users, a day will be enough to completely drain the battery; for more budget-conscious people, the Note 7 may last a little longer, which is not impressive.

However, the smartphone quickly not only discharges, but also charges - 30 minutes is enough for the indicator to fill completely. This to some extent compensates for the insufficient capacity, but does not waste time on daily charging.

Galaxy Note 7 is the first Samsung smartphone to feature a USB Type-C used for charging. If you have older MicroUSB devices, you can connect them using the included adapter. In addition, it is compatible with the new headset virtual reality — Samsung Gear VR

Same as on other smartphones Galaxy series, available on Note 7 fast charging without wires, which takes more time, but is quite convenient.

Data protection and iris scanner

Samsung took protection from unauthorized access very seriously, equipping the device with both a fingerprint sensor and an iris scanner. In the settings you can select one of the options, both, or disable.

Iris retinal scanners are notoriously finicky. On previous phones, you had to hold the device close to your eye and wait for a scan, and if you wore glasses, you had to take them off. And all this only under certain lighting.

But in this case, we have an iris scanner, which, although it works similarly, is less demanding on lighting and does not require a close distance to the eye. You will only have to take off your glasses during setup; in the future, the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 scanner will be able to recognize your eye behind the glass. In bright light the Iris still has problems, but less so.

Testing has shown that in practice setting up the scanner is not as easy as stated, and it for a long time could not authenticate the eye. In theory, you just need to bring your smartphone a moderate distance from your eye, after which the scanner will scan your iris in a split second and the screen will be unlocked. In practice, it may turn out that the device does not recognize the iris, and you will have to bring the Note 7 closer or further away. Or move it to the side. Or open your eyes wider. All this takes time, and if you do this dozens of times a day, it’s downright annoying.

One could say that this is an option for those who use a smartphone less often, but greatly value information. However, what will a business person look like when he brings a light into his eye several times in a row? big smartphone to your face?

Samsung says the Galaxy Note 7's iris scanner is harder to fool than its fingerprint sensor and can be used with wet hands. However, such protection sometimes turns out to be extremely reliable - not only attackers, but also the rightful owner will not have access to the data.

Thankfully, the fingerprint sensor is fairly reliable and secure enough, and the iris scanner can be disabled, so we don't consider this a drawback.

Improved and updated TouchWiz

After a few much-needed changes from previous versions, the latest version of the TouchWiz UI is simply stunning. Samsung gave it a more modern look, improved colors and added volume. There are no more old cartoon icons, and there is no longer that design that made it embarrassing to go into the settings menu - almost everything has been updated and improved.

Many available great apps from Samsung, including Notes, Pen Up, S Health, S Voice, Secure Folder, and Samsung Plus.

Those who use the S Pen should try Pen Up and Notes, while S Health will help you lead a healthy lifestyle and exercise.

Secure Folder is an application for those who want to ensure confidentiality of their files. It makes documents, notes, drawings and even applications encrypted, and will not allow strangers to gain access even if the smartphone is unlocked. For each such file you will need to use a fingerprint or iris scanner.

The Samsung Plus app will make it easier to provide services to customers, including recording video and audio responses to customer requests.

There are many more applications for every taste that can make life easier for almost every Note user.

Software updates

Samsung apparently didn't care too much about regularly updating its smartphones with latest versions Android software. However, the company now assures that everything will be different with the Galaxy Note 7, and all its programs will receive timely patches every month. They also promised that the Android 7.0 Nougat OS itself will be updated regularly.

Warranty for Samsung Galaxy Note 7

The warranty on the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 is valid for 1 year, and covers both manufacturing defects and accidental damage. In order for the device to be repaired or replaced, it must be taken to an authorized service center with a receipt or other proof of purchase, indicating the date of purchase, product serial number, and the seller.

It's important to note that replacing the two curved glass panels can be expensive, although Samsung still hasn't announced the exact amount. If you are afraid of damaging them, it is worth purchasing an extended warranty for $100, which also covers such cases.

Bottom line

Galaxy Note 7, this is best smartphone A 2016 Samsung that's as stylish as the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge and as feature-rich as any other in the Note lineup.

However, if you don't need the S Pen and iris scanner, there's really no compelling reason to buy the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 over the S7 Edge, which is cheaper but just as good in almost every other way.

Pros

• Stylish and practical design.
• New user interface.
• Multifunctional S Pen stylus.

Cons

• Battery explosion hazard.
• It quickly becomes covered with fingerprints and cracks easily.
• But again, we note that there is, although insignificant, the risk of a battery explosion.

One of the interesting changes is the creation of a protected folder into which you can transfer content that is not subject to public viewing; for this purpose, the functionality of the KNOX system has been expanded. One of interesting features- the ability to install any duplicate application, for example, a second VKontakte or Telegram, into such a protected folder. The use of such technology is quite simple to come up with, and it will certainly find its fans.

Fires

The number of explosive jokes about the Note 7 has bothered even meme lovers, and this requires a lot of effort. Almost all YouTubers joked about how hot the Note 7 is. And this is certainly not to Samsung's advantage. Of course, there were cases of phone fires before, but in Note 7 they became widespread, albeit not large.

What is known now?

• There is a small batch of devices, up to 5000 pieces, that have a battery defect.
• Batch of devices and their serial numbers known, but Samsung is recalling all devices worldwide.

This situation happens quite often in the world of automakers: for example, technician Vasya spent a week assembling a car and installed the brakes incorrectly, which stopped braking after a thousand pedal presses. Don't even go too far from batteries, one of TESLA's first batches had cars that could catch fire due to battery problems, but who remembers that now?

This is the first time such a major situation has occurred with smartphones; Samsung's PR service initially reported that sales had been stopped due to the incredible number of pre-orders. A day later, another release came out: sales stopped due to problems with the battery and fire cases.

But is what is happening now so critical?
Fire incidents occur only in the United States and South Korea and do not concern the rest of the world.
There have been problems with smartphones before: smartphones did not connect to the network and were easily bent.
Smartphones do not explode, but rather get very hot and begin to smoke, this can be seen in videos from surveillance cameras of cases, of course, in some cases this can lead to a fire.

History, like any news story, will soon be forgotten. The main thing now is not to repeat the mistakes and not allow anything bad to happen. Of course, the reputation is damaged, there is a loss in the value of the shares and money will have to be spent on returns and overproduction, but do not forget that Samsung is a giant corporation that can afford to produce smartphones that light up at least every six months.

Samsung caused the main headache for themselves - for some reason they decided to recall all smartphones. Although the problem occurs with 0.3% of devices. They did not immediately admit the problem and tried to twist the situation into their own hands. They have been releasing firmware for a long time with a limit on the charging percentage. Knowing a specific batch, they do not update the firmware and do not remotely turn off devices that could be harmful to health.

This is probably a problem for a large corporation - the management vertical simply does not allow for a quick response to such situations. Let's hope that the incident will force management to think about solving such rapidly emerging problems. Otherwise, the company is doing well and they know how to make smartphones.

The official successor of the Galaxy Note 5 has become samsung device Galaxy Note 7. Smartphone-phablet running under operating system Android systems. And although the model is the sixth in the presented series, it was assigned the index 7. The manufacturer decided to emphasize that it is in no way inferior to the Samsung Galaxy S7.

So why should you buy a Samsung Galaxy Note 7? What are the advantages of the gadget? Let's figure it out.

Review

The positioning of the flagship model looks simple. Galaxy Note 7 is the most powerful smartphone with a large margin of safety. In technical terms, it is an absolute copy of the Samsung Galaxy S7 (protection from moisture, pollution, compactness, better camera).

The S Pen stylus with its unique capabilities remains the Note's calling card.

The new gadget has a connector USB standard Type-C, version 64 GB of permanent memory, battery capacity reduced to 3200 mAh Note 7 is equipped with a 5-megapixel front camera, 5.7-inch display, 12-megapixel main camera, USB Type-C port, fingerprint scanner, Exynos 8890 processor. Immediately after entering the market, the model was called an “explosive smartphone.”

And that's not all. The color scheme has been updated - gold, black, blue, gray. New software features have been added - security, content, S Pen.
