Samsung Galaxy Note7 gets new emojis

Unicode 9.0 emojis have been around for a while as companies like Google, Apple, or Facebook already added them to various products. Now, it looks like the time has arrived for Samsung Galaxy Note7 users to get new emojis as well.

The notorious phablet is finally headed in the right direction, with the replacement program nearing its end and the "green battery icon" update finally available. However, the update brings a new battery icon, as well as more than 1,700 new and overhauled emojis. Next to various food and animal emojis, the new firmware also comes with one that shows a selfie-taking hand.

After performing the update, Samsung Galaxy Note7 users will be able to quickly tell if a device is affected by the exploding battery issue or not. Safe handsets will display the battery icon in the status bar in green, instead of the usual white. Those interested to see the full list of new emojis for the Note7 can find it here.
