August 2 is the date and Samsung Galaxy Note7 Unpacked is the event. Samsung will be unveiling the much awaited Galaxy Note7.
There have been so many leaks and we do not expect it to be different from the images leaked on the internet.
This is what we expect it to look like.
Samsung Korea posted a new teaser for the “Next Note” last week hinting on some of the features.

This is what Quentyn Kennemer of Phandroid thinks about some of the hints:
- They showed rotary telephones in water, which is a hint that the Galaxy Note 7 will be water resistant as the Galaxy S7 was.
- A girl taking a selfie with a light bulb in her face for lighting suggests some sort of solution for low-light selfies.
- Someone inputting complicated passwords and patterns — perhaps a tease that the iris scanner should help make authentication easier.
- A road sign about a curved road teases an Edge display.
- A highlighter being used to highlight sentences in a book is an obvious nod to the S-Pen.
- When referring to the number of the Next Note, a question mark follows “5.” Samsung is usually never shy about revealing the number, so it’s another confirmation that the device will be called Galaxy Note 7. That number also appeared in the event invitation the company sent out.
Now back to how you can watch the event is you can’t make it to New York, London or Rio De Janeiro.
