It’s just a few days until Samsung’s 2015 “Unpacked” Event, and after numerous leaks and renders, a full spec sheet has been released by jarir.com. While no photos were shown (that’s for the final treat), we can get a good idea of what to expect. Don’t rely on these specs to be final, as Samsung is yet to confirm the real thing.
For the Note 5, we can expect the device to feature a Quad HD Super AMOLED screen, coming in with 1440 X 2560 pixels. The 5.7 incher will be protected by Gorilla Glass 4. On the inside, we’re expected to see 4GB RAM coupled with Samsung’s Exynos 7422, an upgrade compared to the S6’s 7420. The Octa-Core powered phone comes with either 32GB or 64GB storage wise. And yes, expect room for a MicroSD card, as the 16 megapixel shooter could make some hefty photos. The front facing camera is expected to be 5MP. Running Android 5.1, the device will weigh 169 grams and have a thickness of 7.6mm. The best part? The flagship should have a whopping 4100mAh battery.
The S6 Edge+ will have the same screen: quad HD, 5.7 inch Super AMOLED with Gorilla Glass 4. The same chipset that powers the S6 and S6 Edge, the Exynos 7420, is expected to power this one alongside 4GB RAM. The storage is again 32GB/64GB with the same camera combo, a 16 megapixel back shooter with a 5 megapixel front camera for those selfie lovers. However, under the expandable storage, it just says “Not specified”, so we may need to fear the worse and expect that it doesn’t come with a MicroSD slot. It is however said to be thinner than the Note 5, showing off a 6.9mm waistline and weighs 156 grams.
While we’re talking about the Note 5, we should also point out that Sammy has hinted at improvements to the S Pen.
[blockquote author=”Samsung Blog Post”]The S Pen is already in its fourth edition. It is exciting to consider how it will continue to evolve and improve as time goes on.[/blockquote]
While we expect Samsung to continually improve S Pen, it seems obvious they are working hard at it. Is there anything special on the way? It’d be great to see how they are innovating against competition.
Whoa so maybe the note 5 will have SD card support? Cool. Now how bout the swappable battery?
I wouldn’t trust this article its still quoting 7422 and many have shown 7420 as the CPU, we wont know until august 13th
well i guess you were right about trusting the article
Who needs swappable when its 4100mah!
People that travel a lot and can’t always charge… but fortunately that isn’t me anymore. :-)
This is still all speculation. So let’s say it is 4100 mAh, after 10, 12, 14 months it will still not hold the same charge that it did when it was new because all batteries wear out. That is why swappable battery is essential, at minimum cost you can swap in a brand new battery that retains a full charge just as if it was a brand new phone.
True but consider this……I have an m8 for 17 months now…. Charge twice daily, and battery might have lost 10 percent. With note 5 and possibly 4100mah…. It would go through less charges, plus quick charge when needed…. And if it loses 10 %…. You’d still have a battery with 3700mah. Id prefer bigger batteries than industry standard’s now than a swappable one. Also when traveling portable batteries are very convenient
If that is correct and it has a 4100mah battery, I’m in. Screw swappable batteries and SD cards!
multiple reports confirm 3000mah, we will see, this article seems full of misinformation, like the 7422, theres already been benchmarks released under the 7420 with a new device, most likely 5, sadly I don’t think we will be getting these features
Ditto here. With that battery and no SD it would be worth paying an extra 100 for 64gb and be done with it.
I will stick with my Note 4 if I cannot swap the battery. I just recently made a trip to South Korea and having the 10,000 mah Zero Lemon battery helped out a lot. I used the phone all day with GPS , taking pictures and shooting videos in 4k that at the end of the day I still had 30% battery left . If I was not able to remove the battery I definitely would have been looking to juice up somewhere.
If it has the removable SD card I’ll definitely be purchasing on day 1.
yup me 2
“And yes, expect room for a MicroSD card, as the 16 Megapixel shooter could make some hefty photos.”
everywhere everyone is saying, and from all of the photos released, that no microsd will be released with it, where do you guys get your info as that sentence seems so confident in its information
Sdcard or not I’m buying both the Galaxy Note 5 and S6Edge+ day one.
Because you have no life.
Mr. Samsung Moment from 2009 working on At&t broke as a joke fool. This is 2015 asshole on a budget transvestite loser.
And you’ve just made 3 comments, all to my one comment, because you clearly don’t know about that magical little thing called an “Edit” button, which has been around for <years. What a joke.
The Moment was a CDMA only phone. AT&T doesn’t and has never used used CDMA. So riddle me how I have a Samsung Moment operating on AT&T. What a joke. Spewing things you claim are “facts” but couldn’t possibly be further from the truth.
Thanks for all those juvenile insults. I would just like you to know, 8 year olds could do better. You’re also only proving my point above.
You’re mother is a transvestite ladyboy poor soul. Ha Ha Ha Ha
Is she a transvestite, or a lady? Make up your mind. Or use proper punctuation to ensure your insults actually make sense. Moron.
SOCIETY LOSER
We all wish this was true but we all KNOW it’s bullshit. How many live units have we seen with all the specs leaked from them. All the people posting they’ve seen it in flesh and told us something. Then a big one. EV leaks had told us. How many times is he wrong? NOT MANY. Wake up guys. Prepare for half of these specs.
