Samsung Galaxy Note 7 might come in blue

The next-gen Galaxy Note phablet has been in the rumor mill for a while and is expected to get an official launch on August 2nd. The follower of the Galaxy Note 5 is said to feature an iris scanner and will launch as Galaxy Note 7, skipping the Note 6 name which would have been the next in line. 

In the last few days, Evan Blass confirmed the iris scanner and confirmed some specs of the upcoming device as well. His latest Twitter post regarding this matter is very concise, as usual, but reveals a lot - "Couple confirmed specs: 5.7" QHD SAMOLED, 64GB + microSD, 12MP DualP / 5MP, IP68, black/silver/blue." 

In addition to the above, the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 is also expected to offer USB Type-C connectivity, a new set of S Note-related features, as well as a BlackBerry Hub-like Samsung Focus app. However, nothing is official yet, so everything should be taken with a grain of salt for now. After all, there is more than a month since the launch day, and a lot can change. We will surely hear more about this next-gen phablet in the weeks to come, so stay tuned.
