Samsung is planning to unveil the next Galaxy Note earlier than usual to fend off iPhone competition this year, just as it did last year. Now, a fresh image leak further testifies to the rumour, and hints that the company may be holding an event as soon as August 2 to unveil the phablet in the market.

Samsung is also thought to be skipping the Galaxy Note 6 in order to bring the naming of its flagship phablet in line with that of its flagship smartphone family, the S series. Since it announced the Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge earlier this year, it makes sense that it would also bring out the Note 7 in 2016.

Samsung Galaxy Note 7 is rumoured to pack 6GB RAM and might come along side an Edge variant. The phablet(s) is/are expected to include Samsung's new 10nm LPDDR4 6GB RAM, which was revealed month a month ago. A 4,000mAh battery is also rumoured, which is 1000mAh more than the battery of Galaxy Note 5.

Some of the previous rumours related to the unannounced Galaxy Note flagship hint at a 5.8-inch QHD display, quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 processor, 32GB of in-built storage with an option to support microSD cards, and a 12MP rear camera with dualpixel tech.

The handset is also expected to have an iris scanner, in addition to being water resistant. As usual these devices will be larger devices than the S7 and S7 Edge, and come with Samsung's S Pen stylus.
