Samsung Galaxy Note 5 successor renders leak online

Evan Blass of @evleaks has announced via his Twitter that the next Galaxy Note launch is just two months away when Samsung is expected to make the official announcement around the same time that the next Apple iPhone will be made available.

Coinciding with the leak are renderings and even a short video of the design showing the alleged phablet from multiple angles. Of course, none of the renderings are official, so these should definitely be taken with a grain of salt.

Previous rumors suggest that the Galaxy Note 5 successor will skip the "Note 6" name and jump straight to "Note 7" to be numerically in line with the Galaxy S7 and the eventual iPhone 7. At least two models or SKUs are expected with one being slightly less powerful and more affordable. The newly leaked images suggest a metal back and curved glass front with USB Type-C and the usual stylus slot. There appears to be no dual cameras for the Note 5 successor whereas the iPhone 7 Plus is anticipated to have two cameras on the back.

The renderings claim dimensions of 153.5 x 73.9 x 7.9 mm. Rumored specifications include a Snapdragon 823 SoC or Exynos 8890 depending on the region, up to 6 GB RAM, 4000 mAh battery, and a 5.8-inch Super AMOLED QHD panel.
