Samsung Galaxy Note7 Specs

Description

After two worldwide recalls, the Samsung Galaxy Note7 was discontinued on October 10 due to multiple reports of units catching fire and/or exploding. In the interest of safety, users who still have a Note7 in their possession must return the unit to Samsung. Prior to its discontinuation, the Note7 was one of the best and most powerful Android phones, combining cutting-edge hardware with a number of unique features. These included a refined S Pen stylus, an iris scanner built in for user recognition, as well as water resistance and the highly acclaimed 12MP camera of the Galaxy S7.

This device is also known as Samsung Galaxy Note 6, Samsung SM-N930F, Samsung SM-N930FD, Samsung SM-N930A, Samsung SM-N930T, Samsung SM-N930VZ, Samsung SM-N930P, Samsung SM-N930R, Samsung Galaxy Note7

Totally Awesome!!!!
Phone owned for less than 3 months

By far, my favorite phone of all times! I had the Note 2, 3, 4 skipped the 5 for the V10 because of the reduced features and came back for the 7! Every since the S5 had IP 68, I was hoping for the same feature on the Note series. After a long 2 year wait, I finally get it. Its so cool to take it in the shower and the pool! One of many favorite features. The Samsung Pay is way cool to because it works with old credit card terminals that are NOT wireless! Wow! Everybody at the store is in shock when I pay with my phone. Usually clerks tell me they don't accept phone payments because they don't have the technology for wireless payments....until I pay with Samsung Pay! :) The third big feature of this phone is the fast wireless charging. I use the stand so its easier to read when in bed or at a desk. I will say the battery life of this phone is by far the best of ANY phone I have ever owned. By the time my V10 went capuch, battery life was 2 hours. New it was 5 hours on the V10. Battery life on my Note 7 is easily 10 hours. I am a heavy power user. The bezel less edge screens in a much smaller phone than older Notes makes for a really sleek phone!

Explosion Problems, but Great!
Phone owned for less than 3 months

There are a total of almost 100 out of 2.5 million phones from August 19 to October 10 being toasted form this battery problem, but I really used it and loved it, no problem up until the recall. Now, as the Galaxy Note7 was discontinued, I was so sad, because I have several, and did nothing to hurt me, but it is shoved.
