Galaxy Note 7: Unboxing & Impressions!

2016-08-16
back in October 2011 at IFA in Berlin Samsung unveiled the very first Galaxy Note but at the time a ridiculously large 5.3 inch screen and the world including myself scoffed at such large screen phones turns out Samsung knew better than the rest of us and here we are with its six iteration but this is the galaxy note 7 and things of things have evolved quite a bit from the one Giga RAM for Android buttons that used to live on the Galaxy Note so let's take a look at what Samsung sent us this is their press box a lot of probably extras in here that won't come in the shipping box and there are so we've got the brand new gear VR right here this is going to be compatible with older Samsung devices well it's got an adapter for the USB see that lives on the note 7 we've got a gear fit 2 in here as well for tracking we've got a power cord few power cords in there for for charging the gear fit push all that off to the side we have of course the galaxy note 7 got a 256 gig microSD card it does have expandable storage and we've got a Qi fast charging wireless charging dock let's move all of this stuff off the side here and let's take a look at the galaxy note 7 the boxes look very familiar to the galaxy note 5 go ahead and open this sucker up and there for the first time on a note device we've got Samsung dual edged screen this the black onyx version I haven't seen this in person that looks really nice I'll go ahead and peel the plastic off of this a couple of things I'm really excited to test the first thing that gives the iris scanner this is see how quickly that works if it indeed does work in dark or low light situations I want to try fast charging and see how Samsung does USB see so iPad this guy on and we'll see how that 5.7 inch 2560 by 1440 screen is going to look I think Samsung has got some best Super AMOLED panels going so presumably it's going to look pretty nice rounding out the specs least in the u.s. it's going to be the Snapdragon 820 on here four gigs of ram is going to be on board assuming you're not in China where six gig variants will come out a lot of questions about the fingerprint sensor here it's still here you don't have the iris you can choose to use fingerprints or not and it is an actual suppressible button we've seen companies go towards making it just a sensor but you can actually click this thing here of course ip68 is here as well IP 68 is now also found on the s pen so you can write underwater antennae you're going to ask you can't don't you put it in backwards it's not gonna go in so those days are gone and keeping this guy protected is going to be Gorilla Glass 5 so go ahead and set this guy up let's take a look how everything's going to perform you're finally up and running and the phone looks and feels very similar to the Galaxy s7 edge a little more weight to it a lot of the spectrum a device carry over here as well highlighted by a 12 megapixel sensor on the back and the five megapixel sensor on the front but take a look at how well that iris scanner is going to work based in normal lights on market professed recognize my eyes and unlocked when I do a full review that will test it outdoors will test it in dark light and all different scenarios here let's take a look around Samsung's you I jump into settings a little bit of a different look here in settings of the color still stays the same while the camera might be the same on this versus the s7 edge the UI is a little bit different here on the note you can swipe left different camera filters will show up a little bit different I think a little bit of a more elegant UI on this device let's take a look at the s-pen when the feature is here is you can actually start writing directly on the screen even when it's off and you can indeed do that you can set your notes actually be your home screen to show up on your lock screen as well and it looks to be really quick there's almost no lag at all as I'm writing on the note 7 so first impressions I note 7 are overwhelmingly positive the phone feels premium and look for the screen not surprisingly looks beautiful we're going to test a camera to see how performs but anywhere close to the exact same sensor again found in the s7 the s7 edge it should be a pretty nice setup going on here if you want to make sure we cover it leave it down below I'll make sure I check that as I film the review and if you want to see more note 7 coverage give the video a thumbs up to let us know and perhaps a note 7 giveaway coming up until next time I'm Jon render can TechnoBuffalo hey guys next video
