Galaxy Note 7 smartphone renders surface
Renders appeared online of what looks to be the Samsung Galaxy Note 7. The device has curved edges on the screen renders and virtually no bezels on the sides. The renders shows a USB port Type C as well.
The USB-C port on the Galaxy Note 7 would be different from the Galaxy S7 series, which features micro-USB. Moreover, it would make the Note 7 not compatible with the current Gear VR headset for virtual reality. Which has a micro-USB connector in the housing.
The renders, appeared at OnLeaks @ Twitter and show a slot for a stylus. Last year, Samsung released a Galaxy Note flat 5, while it also issued a large phone without a stylus, the Galaxy S6 Edge +. It nevere reached most EU markets though.
The dimensions of the 7 according to the renders are 15,35x73,9mm. This brings the bezels on the sides of about 1.2mm per side, less than any other smartphone too. Based on the dimensions and renders the screen comes out at around 5.75. " The resolution is unknown, but previous rumors point to an OLED display with rgb format and resolution of 2560x1440 pixels.
The renders do not seem to show the dual camera based on a previous rumor. Well see, there are two additional sensors on the front, it may be that the Note 7 there has to sit an iris scanner. Samsung, according to recent rumors skip the name and Note 6 to call the appliance Note 7 to align the numbering of Note series with that of the Galaxy S line. That is not the case, because the smart phone maker Note the first one and a half year after the first released Galaxy S, at a time when the S II had already been on the market. Samsung likely announces the Note 7 in August.

When would this burn in actually affect you though? retail demos get burn in because they show the same thing every day, all day, especially after customers adjust timeouts, or the ones that have the burn in "samsung" for example in the middle of the screen - this is usually when a retail model has a fault and its looping..and therefore since it loops while its booting the samsung logo gets burnt in, again this won't be a problem for you under normal use. Even for the grannies that take 4-6 hours to write a text message there's no real excuse for your screen to get burn under normal use - the screen should time out and go to sleep after a minute or two of inactivity and if you're staring at your phone for several hours on end without scrolling or tabbing, you're doing it wrong. Also, with marshmellow the top bar is transparent now and your icons are grey to minimize the possibility of burn in anyway.

I'm well aware. But those Nexuses I mentioned got burn-in with standard use in under 30 days. All it takes is bad luck and you get a crappy panel. Samsung, which I've dealt with extensively, sure as hell won't replace it either if you bought a device from them. The rumour goes that they keep the A quality panels for themselves and sell only their reject panels. I haven't confirmed that though.
For now I'm using Cyanogen 13, basically close to stock Android 6.0.1. So all the info at the top is white, meaning all subpixel colours are on for maximum burn-in compared to surrounding pixels.

Looks identical to the already old Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge and the new S7 Edge. No innovation and same old design...
Also no stereo speakers giving only crappy mono sound also from the back of the phone?
I'll pass...

Our eyes would get "burn-in" too, if it was possible to leave them open for prolonged period of time.
That's why we shut them.
I've seen Nexus 6 and 6Ps get burn-in on the top bar within 1 month of use. That would annoy the crap out of me. Samsung keeps their best samples for their own phones though so you'd hope they won't burn in as easily. So far whatever I got on my S5 is not noticeable if it's there, but I've been very careful to never have the screen static over the entire 2 years I've had it. I want to NOT have to do that.
