Samsung back with another phone in their galaxy note series and this time it is Galaxy Note7. Its launch was announced by the brand on July 12 and the specifications were finally announced on August 2 during an event held in NYC.
Samsung reportedly skipped the Galaxy Note6 and jumped straight to the Galaxy Note7 to match the name with their Galaxy S series. This will be an important launch for Samsung since their competitors, Apple Inc is rumored to be launching the iPhone 7 at the end of September.
For every pre-order of the Samsung Galaxy Note7, T-Mobile is offering a gift of the customer’s choice – a Gear Fit 2, a 236GB microSD memory card, or a year’s free Netflix subscription.
