available on mobile fun.co.uk in 3-5 days it seems
Looks nice, i wonder if it will also look good with the blue coral.
 
Data out of Korea shows that the Galaxy Note 7 pre-orders are almost double that of the Galaxy S7. Pre-orders have only been open for a couple of days now and already over 200,000 units have been ordered by customers, making this the highest pre-order figure for a Galaxy smartphone ever in Korea. The Galaxy Note 7′s attractive features coupled with Samsung’s aggressive marketing push is reportedly bringing in more customers.

After buying and selling both a nexus 6p and a nexus 5X these last couple weeks I'm back in my comfort zone on the 6S. But damn damn damn this note 7 is so tempting. I'm torn between it and the 7 plus. There's no doubt that Samsung has jumped ahead of Apple in hardware design and features overall. There's just something about iPhone that I can't get away from and it's frustrating because i want more out of my device. I barely use any other gadgets besides my phone. Why is life so hard? :)
 
I'm also considering leaving sprint for t mobile but I'm confused on what I would have to pay. I'm on a lease I think I would need to pay off the lease and pay the purchase option in order to switch. Then tmo would pay me in gift cards and credits. Confusing AF. Another reason to just stay with iPhone. It's simple I just upgrade with my iPhone forever plan on sprint. Someone make my decisions for me. Please!
 
The always on display makes a lot more sense with the s pen and note taking.

I assume you can write all over the screen even despite the AOD?

Do you mean with the AOD?

As soon as you remove the s-pen the AOD will dissapear / become inactive as you interact with the notes and then as you place your pen back and it saved that note, your AOD will kick back on.

I think the new Note 7 AOD will let you take the S-Pen out and start writing as long as the display was not on first.

AOD on the Note 7 looks much more useful then the version on the S7 thanks to 3rd party app support and the ability to pin notes to it.

The AOD looks pretty awesome, I'm hoping it won't hit the battery too hard.

I think they are also counting on when it's in the pocket or bag, AOD will not be displayed. And it does a excellent job at auto-brightness. I doubt there will be any noticeable difference.

That's true, it does turn off if it detects it's in a pocket/bag. What a cool feature, Samsung is really pushing some boundaries this time around. I'm crossing my fingers that ATT ships them out early this time. I just sold my Gear VR and my 6p in preparation.

Yeah that's my fear too. Then why oh why not go with the 4000 mAh battery in the N7???

I think they would have if they could. But design kept them from doing so. It's almost the same size as the S7 edge, plus they had to make room for the S-pen

Note the progress: the evolution of the Samsung S Pen from the original phablet to the Note 7

Wow the tip radius is less than half of the Note 5's stylus. I wish I could use something like this on a larger screen. Damn you Microsoft for cheaping out on your consumers and using Ntrig on my surface pro 4!! My hope is that somehow Samsung is able to make a folding tablet/phone with Wacom technology, then I think my dream quota will be filled up for 3 or 4 years. I wonder if a new Wacom Samsung tablet is being planned?

I'd also like to see a head to head with the ipad pro stylus and the note 7 stylus. I know different applications due to the size differences, but I'm still curious how they stack up head to head.

The apple pencil is nicer to use then the spen on my note 5. I think it's largely due to tilt, which is on the apple pencil, and the shape of the tip. We'll see how it is on the Note 7, but my initial impressions from the best buy demo unit weren't that great. I'm speaking purely hardware, Samsung has done a much better job at making the spen useful then apple has in software.
