At the end of 2015, Samsung tried to distance itself from its rivals and overcome the sales figures of its tablets through a model that was well received by users, both at Christmas holidays and in the first months of 2016. We are talking about the Galaxy Tab S2, a model we've talked about repeatedly and recently received support for upgrading to Marshmallow. However, in the field of phablets, the South Korean firm has also not stopped launching new devices since also in the final stretch of 2015, we are witnessing the departure of the Galaxy S6 Edge + or also the Galaxy Note 5.
However, in a context marked by competitiveness, all manufacturers, regardless of their size, must innovate at a very fast pace to stay within the most popular options among the public. The design and commercialization of new terminals or the inclusion of trends such as Virtual Reality, are some of the routes it is following Samsung to maintain its position. Next, we tell you more about him Galaxy Note 6, the future member of the Galaxy family of which little by little we continue to know more characteristics, and of which everything points, which will come to light very soon.
Integrated
As we could already see with the Edge+In the visual aspect, we find ourselves again with the curved screens that make the side frames as tight as possible. On the other hand, in the back cover we find a mixture between glass and aluminum However, it offers more stylized frames than its predecessors. As with the Galaxy S7, there is a slot to house the S-Pen.
Screen
With regard to image services, this is where we have witnessed the greatest amount of rumors and speculation from both specialized portals and social networks. In this case, according to GSM Arena, we would be in front of a device of a considerable size with a panel of 5,8 inches and a 2K resolution. In the case of cameras, we have already learned that the rear sensor will have 12 Mpx.
Processor
As we all know, Samsung has been incorporating self-made chips for a few years when it comes to providing its terminals, whether tablets or smartphones, with maximum speed. However, this time it is taken for granted on platforms such as Weibo that the new device will have a chip Qualcomm Snapdragon 823 quad-core capable of exceeding 2 Ghz speed. As for the GPU, it is believed that we will find an Adreno 530 with peaks of 730 Mhz. In the field of memory, everything indicates that it will have a 6 GB RAM with a storage capacity of 32 GB that can be expanded using Micro SD cards.
Autonomy
In this sense, we could find ourselves facing one of the strengths of the Samsung Galaxy Note 6 since it would be equipped with a battery of great size that would be around 4.000 mAh And that it could offer a loading duration of close to two days, yes, with mixed uses that are not based exclusively on the reproduction of content or navigation. On the other hand, it is confirmed that it will run with Android Marshmallow standard and with functions aimed at increasing safety through biometric markers as a fingerprint reader, something that we are already seeing with increasing frequency, or also, an iris scanner. Finally, and as a curious fact, some portals such as Sammobile have announced that this phablet will be the first manufactured by the South Korean giant that will be prepared for USB type C that allow the transmission of content at average speeds of 150 mbps.
Price and Availability
To calculate the approximate cost that this device will have, the prices of the last members of the Galaxy and Edge families are being taken as a reference and that in most cases, have exceeded 600 and even 700 euros. In the case of the Note 6, it is estimated that it will exceed $730. However, this should be taken with caution since the information about launch prices is where we can find the most with a multitude of versions. In relation to his departure date, in principle it was assumed that he would leave in August. However, it will most likely see the light of day by the end of the year.
As you have seen, Samsung continues to cause expectation and also a multitude of rumors, given the arrival of new terminals with which it seeks to repeat the success it has already had with previous devices. After knowing more about the future Galaxy Note 6 and seeing some of the possible features that it could have, do you think that the South Korean firm is still capable of offering innovative models with leading-edge features, or do you think that the push of technological China is becoming more and more powerful, and that these companies can offer similar or even better terminals at somewhat lower prices? You have available more related information about other upcoming launches of this brand such as the Galaxy Tab Iris so that you can give your opinion while you know what awaits us from South Korea.
