New images reveal USB Type-C port on the Samsung Galaxy Note 7

The upcoming Galaxy Note 7 was leaked in all three color variants earlier this morning, also confirming a curved display and an iris scanner. We exclusively reported that the Galaxy Note 7 would feature a USB Type-C port two months ago. Now, a new image from accessory maker Olixar has confirmed the presence of USB Type-C port.

The image of a tempered glass screen protector meant for the Galaxy Note 7 reveals the USB Type-C port on the bottom along with a bottom-firing loudspeaker, an S-Pen slot, and a headphone jack. The screen protector from Olixar also has openings for the front-facing camera, iris scanner, an ambient light sensor, and the earpiece.

Samsung might announce a new version of the Gear VR virtual-reality headset that would work with the Galaxy Note 7′s USB Type-C port. We expect both the devices to be unveiled by Samsung on August 2 at an event in New York.

Samsung Galaxy Note 7 revealed in three color variants with iris scanner and curved display

Samsung is yet to announce its next Galaxy Note smartphone, but almost all the information about the device has leaked already. Now, the design of the Galaxy Note 7 has leaked in a fresh set of press renders.

Serial smartphone leaker Evan Blass (@evleaks) has tweeted an image that shows the Galaxy Note 7 in all its color variants – Black Onyx, Blue Coral, and Silver Titanium – along with the presence of what looks like an iris scanner and a curved display. The image also pretty much confirms that the next Galaxy Note would be named Galaxy Note 7.

The design of the Galaxy Note 7 looks quite similar to that of the Galaxy S7 edge with curves on the front as well as the back. You can also see three new S Pen-inspired wallpapers in the press render. Samsung is expected to announce the device on August 2, which is when we can expect to receive information about its price and availability.

Samsung Galaxy S7 edge Olympic Edition will be launched on July 7

We exclusively reported three months ago that Samsung was working on the Galaxy S7 edge Olympic Edition, it’s a limited edition variant of the Galaxy S7 that Samsung is creating to commemorate the upcoming Rio 2016 Summer Olympics. A press render of this handset was leaked online just last week and now it appears that we’re only a few days away from the official announcement.

A teaser has been posted on the official Samsung Mobile Deutschland Facebook page which tells us to “Ge7 Ready” for a new unpacking and directs us to an offer for the Olympics on Samsung’s website. All of this suggests that the company is gearing up to launch the Galaxy S7 edge Olympic Edition on July 7. It’s unclear in which markets this limited edition handset will be released and how much it will cost. Samsung is a major sponsor of the Olympics so its customers get the exclusive privilege of watching the Rio 2016 Olympics in virtual reality. The 2016 Summer Olympics are taking place in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil with the opening ceremony taking place on August 5.
