Samsung Galaxy Note 7 Leaks Reveal Both Curved and Flat Screen Models

The anticipated Samsung Galaxy Note 6 / 7 has been caught out in the wild – with a curved edge model leaked in video form and, despite the previous idea that it will only be available as Edge model, an image has also surfaced which may confirm a flat screen version of the Note 7 will also go on sale.

First up, that video which comes courtesy of our friends at mobilefun.co.uk and shows the curved edge Samsung Galaxy Note 7 with Android 6.0 being used on the generous display and rolling over those rounded sides. The screen is said to measure 5.77-inches in the leaked specification sheets. The video was actually from a hands-on demo of a phone screen protector from Olixar but fortunately for all of us the phone in question appears to be the upcoming Samsung phablet.

As well as revealing the standard curvy version of the Note 7, French website www.nowhereelse.fr has shared photos of a flat screened version of the massive mobile, suggesting two versions will hit the market. Believed to be a prototype, the grubby Note 7 pictured in these very amateur photos features the wide screen surface, confirming it as a Note model, but it doesn’t include the rounded edges – nor does it show off any Samsung branding. This may turn out to be a rumoured lesser spec model or Lite version.

In other Samsung Galaxy Note 7 news, tech blogger Mai Nguyên has speculated that the new model will not only be water resistant itself, but will also include a waterproof stylus allowing the smartphone to be used when wet.

You may notice the Note 7 is expected to skip the sequential number 6, this is supposedly because there would be some significant upgrades from the last model. We’ll find out the final look, the available models and all the official specs when Samsung’s next Unpacked event takes place on August 2nd.
