I recently pre-ordered two samsung-galaxy-note 7’s and waiting for them to be delivered is driving me crazy. So to occupy the time I have left, I have started doing some research. I would like to share some lesser known facts about this phone.
The Note 7 has a 5.7" QHD Super AMOLED display. DisplayMate a Boston-based company, a leader in calibrating and evaluating display technology, says the Note 7 boasts the brightest smartphone display they have ever tested.
Even better resistance to cracking from drops. Just a few weeks after announcing the technology, Corning's latest Gorilla Glass 5 will make its retail debut on the brand new Galaxy Note 7. Corning claims that Gorilla Glass 5 can take drops from five feet off the ground onto "hard, rough surfaces" with an 80% survival rate. That's substantially better than competition.
Note 7 may double download speeds via 4×4 MIMO, which stands for Multiple Input Multiple Output and 4×4 indicates four transmission and reception streams. The reason this is interesting is because no commercial smartphone has supported 4×4 MIMO
