Samsung Note7 releasing Tuesday August 2, 2016 - Why I'm buying and Why I'm NOT buying -From a S7 Edge Owner

in #news8 years ago

Yes, Samsung is releasing their new Note earlier next week and I'm excited. Why? Is Bigger Better?
Here's my breakdown of the Pros and Cons of the Samsung Note 7 from the prospective of an exciting Samsung s7 Edge owner.

Here are the rumored Note 7 specs:
5.7-inch screen
12-megapixel camera
5-megapixel front-facing camera
IP68 certified against water and dust
64GB of space expandable through a microSD card
USB Type-C port; Quick Charge 3.0
4,200mAh battery
Black, silver, blue colors

First, the Cons:
#1 Money - I will have to sell my relatively new Samsung S7 Edge which is in great condition
#2 Bigger - Bigger can be a negative when carrying around with you. 5.7" vs. 5.5" (S7 Edge). Easier to Drop?
#3 Samsung TouchWiz and Bloat. Android experience. If you think the iPhone 7 and iOS 10 is going to be great in Sept. 2016. However, rumor has it that "Grace" will appear on the new Note.
#4 USB-C - While great in theory, who owns any USB-C devices or cables?
#5 Bigger battery - Bigger screen more power not sure if it'll last longer than the S7 Edge. (3600mAh)
#6 Snapdragon Processor - Not sure if this is a negative but the current Samsung S7 Edge Octa Core is smooth.

Second, the Pros:
#1 Bigger - Screen size is great for viewing content and photos.
#2 Stylus - I love to draw. More diagrams and visual messages.
#3 Battery Life - Bigger display but a battery to match. Plus the fast charging of USB-C
#4 "Grace" OS layer - Better for gestures and interaction with device. TBD
#5 USB-C - Appears to be the future interface for fast charging but also there are specs that USB-C devices can charge each other. This would be nice.

Lastly, here are the current specs of the Samsung S7 Edge. What do you think ? Did I miss any?
