Samsung Galaxy Note 7 review: 14 key takeaways

The Samsung Galaxy Note 7 is arguably one of the most important new phones in the second half of 2016: a productivity and performance beast, it has always been a showcase for a type of device where Samsung could truly go all out.

This year, though, the Galaxy Note 7 is not Samsung's only big phone: apart from the new and improved S Pen, the Note 7 bears a striking resemblance to the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge, the 5.5-inch phone that features the same excellent Snapdragon 820 system chip, TouchWiz interface and fast 12-megapixel camera.
