Galaxy Note 5: What is expected of the next giant – Phonandroid

Now that the Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge came out, fans of Samsung and especially the Note range look ahead. The next giant smartphone Korean brand should be presented in September at IFA 2015 Berlin. Some rumors are already circulating and trends we’ll see it all together, but also share our expectations and hopes on the Galaxy Note 5.

A Super AMOLED

The diagonal

Let’s start with the size of the screen. The latter has been increasing over the Note range, but the versions 3 and 4 had in common the same diagonal of 5.7 inches . Samsung could keep this choice for the Galaxy Note 5, while reducing borders to be more compact and improve grip. The other option is a slight expansion for large up to 6 inches, while keeping the same size as its predecessor. This would then require a screen borderless or so.



The definition, 2K or 4K

Currently, the Note 4 has a 2K screen. Samsung is considering the implementation of a 4K screen , which would be a great first smartphone, the opportunity to stand out once again. But it is a sensitive subject, the definition affecting the autonomy and everyone not seeing something positive. But Samsung also thinking of virtual reality and Gear VR helmet that requires high resolution to offer stereoscopic 3D. A 4K Ultra HD screen or give an impressive resolution greater than 700 dpi.



A Edge Note 5 with curved screen?

The latest rumors suggest a Galaxy Note 2 which Edge would come out alongside Note 5. This is the most likely solution to the extent that Samsung could bring himself to release a single version of its Note 5 écang with a double curve. If the Edge S6 has received a warm welcome, it does not please everyone and users want choice. We can expect two versions, a classic and Edge.



A muscled datasheet with Exynos SoC

After parting SoC Qualcomm Snapdragon, Samsung became independent on the high end with its latest Exynos processor that is more powerful and energy efficient than the competition, thanks to the 14 nm engraving particular. To Note 5, it would be logical that the company goes in the same direction, with SoC Exynos 7422 . The latter is tipped instead of 7430 would not be ready in time for production of the Galaxy Note 5. The chart will no doubt very strong.

This SoC has the distinction of being based on the ePop technology that merges the CPU with the GPU and RAM. All this would again be engraved in 14 nanometers. A very powerful chip that should provide the level of performance and allows in addition to saving space inside the chassis. For the amount of RAM, you can count on 4 GB , enough to ensure a perfect multitasking by running all software applications specific to the S-Pen

. Materials: Plastic, Metal, Glass, Leather?

Note The range has always been at the forefront of the latest innovations offered by Samsung that does not hesitate to incorporate his latest discoveries, as was the case in version 4 which was the first flagship mobile Korean to have metal edges (not the Galaxy was not Alpha flagship mobile). The Note 4 also has a leather back imitation plastic that has the advantage of making the removable shell, but also the battery.

Two advantages that are no longer present on the Galaxy S6. Yet the design of the latter is favored, a nice mix of metal and glass. The Galaxy Note range has its own identity and should not be a copy-paste of the S6 larger. However, Samsung must offer a truly premium product with noble materials. From our side, you can expect a slightly rounded metal frame like the S6, with a genuine leather back this time, as it can be found on the LG G4 for example.



Camera

Samsung has nothing more to prove quality image sensors embedded in its products. The S6 is now a reference in the field and Note 5 should follow the same voice. Whether with a Sony sensor or ISOCELL , one can expect a minimum of 16 megapixels with an f / 1.9. The Galaxy Note 5 should even the bar a little higher than the S6, which would make sense.

There is no need to worry too much about the Note 5 of the sensor which will no probably very good. A better sensitivity in low light, video and 4K optical stabilization are likely to be in the game. The Note 4 did better than the S5 on this, the Note 5 probably will do better than S6 (unstoppable logic).



Micro SD removable battery?

The Korean brand will have to make a difficult choice on materials that will determine two important things that have gone on S6 : the removable battery and microSD port. Note The range has always been as a consumer tool, but also professional, a Swiss Army knife that brings features in addition to those of the Galaxy range.

Remove the removable battery and extension memory is, again, a step backwards. If the non-removable battery can be explained by the choice of materials and unique design, the no microSD is instead a way for the company to increase margins by offering different capacities storage. A strategy that Apple has applied for a long time.

Again, a compromise could be done with a battery that we could retire, but a microSD hatch on the metal frame (at least on the hope). The phone is quite large, this should not be a problem. In terms of battery capacity we do not have any information, but the rating range is known to have excellent battery life, we do not worry too much on this point.



Date output and prices

On this point, it will not take too much risk by announcing a release date between late September and early October, and a price that should logically be positioned on the high-end, c that is to say at least 700 euros which is the minimum recommended rate for the Galaxy S6.

Do not hesitate to tell us what you expect from the Galaxy Note 5 and what would be your perfect specs for the upcoming Samsung PHABLET
