I'm really interested to see how the stylus and screen work underwater and if there are issues if you inset/eject the pen underwater as well. I'd be very impressed if you can take notes accurately underwater, waiting for the videos of that.

Anyone else feeling meh about this release?
Not that I really care about this, because CPU and GPU are good enough as it is today.
Still I was expecting an upgraded SoC and the look feels way too generic now.
The camera is the same, so we will see over-processed shots with oversaturated colours.

Definitely not feeling meh about this . Yes many upgrades are minor these days because phones already have great features ! I think Sony is the king of minor upgrades - this one has quite a few over the last years Note. Snapdragon 821 would be nice but it is only a minor upgrade to 820- which is the best at the moment for android anyway

The only thing I am not crazy about is edge screen, yes it looks good but not convinced is practical. Love how much memory is available

Would make a nice upgrade from my Note 4, I'm loving it in Black Onyx.
64GB Internal Mem + IP68 Water and Dust Resistance + 3500mAh battery and Iris Scanner.

BTW, apparently the Edges aren't as curved as the S7 Edge.

Let's see what the LG V20 brings though.

Samsung LOST revenues this past quarterly earnigs announced just a week ago. You're going to see a LOT of tech companies involved with mobile handsets and devices follow suit with their products. That is to say reduced R&D spending this year and less deliverying top shelf tech until next year. There is no surety that the techonlogy industry will recover the way the economy is so far = heavily unstable. Samsung KNOWS they have an EDGE (pun intended) over the competition and they don't NEED to enforce it.

PS: Samsung, get a new vocal voice over for your N.American and western world commercials on new products - this guys voice sounds like a fist in the ear and the tone is horrible. Not dissing the actual person, just stating his voice is not so universally accepted.

Curious: how many Note units sell each year vs Galaxy/Galaxy S Edge units? Moreover the demographics in terms of male/female purchasers for each country.
|AppleTV2|iPhone 12Mini 256GB|iPad Pro 256GB| Previously ... K750|Z500|Z520|K700|K790i|K850i, :Ericsson: T18z|T28World|T36m x3|T68m (Ericsson, not the rebranded T68i).

I was under the impression that Samsung made a good profit compared to last year, a lot coming from the mobile division?- so not quite sure where they lost revenue

I don't see much wrong with this phone - great CPU,gpu , meant to be great for games, good camera, water and dust proof, note pen, loads of memory , USB type c, metal build and so on

Lol, same here, the S7 and S7 Edge have been a great success for them as far as I know.

S7 Edge is already a powerful device and since its quite big too hence it makes Note 7 look "meh". They should have dropped the hybrid sim/SD slot and given each a dedicate one!
