When Samsung announced its Q2 financial results last week, it posted $5+ billion net profit, riding on the Galaxy S7 and S7 edge relatively grand sales success, compared to its last two or three flagship editions.

The just-announced Samsung Galaxy Note 7 is one of the most anticipated handsets for the second half of the year, and Samsung is laying big hopes on this one, too, making a big bet to release the Note 7 with a Dual edge panel version only. This makes the Note 7 narrower, and thus a bit more comfortable to hold.

That's not the only thing unique about it, though, as Samsung threw the kitchen sink in there, and then some, making the phone as futureproof as it can be at this moment. There are a lot of "firsts" with the Note 7, at least for Samsung, that is why we are listing all the new features that arrive with the Note 7, when compared to its predecessor, but also the competition in general. Check them out below.
