Samsung Galaxy Note 7 is the perfect smartphone “”? No, because there will never be a device that can aspire to perfection, the maximum you can bring. And in recent days several problems are emerging about the new phabalet top range of Samsung home. First the usual iFixit has disassembled the device for noting their repairability. The result was a measly rating of 4/10, because of technological solutions developed by Samsung. In short, we must think twice before removing a smartphone of almost 900 euro.
At first glance Note 7 in fact, seems to be an S7 plus the S Pen. In design terms they are very similar, but the structural design there are several differences. In the lower part there is accommodation for Type-C USB port and one for the stylus. Opening the handset is not simple, because it is very likely to break the back cover glass. Remove the other components requires expert hands and the real risk would be to break the precious dual edge display.
Hard to repair, but the performance? With a Snapdragon 820 / Exynos 8890 and 4 GB of RAM there should be no problems. But no. XDA modder on the forum to several problems have emerged for the phablet, although we want to emphasize that not all users have encountered them. The tests were performed on the US version with Snapdragon 820, it will be marketed in Italy instead with the Exynos 8890.
The test results can seem disarmingly: Galaxy Note 7 would be slower than the competition . In the speed test of the opening of the app Notes 7 has been exceeded by HTC 10, OnePlus 3 and even by Nexus 6 with Snapdragon 810 with the latest preview of Android No Blame it seems the new Grace UX, which has always been about 96 background processes, where such OnePlus 3 has 50.
it seems that Notes 7 is reluctant to use all 4 cores available, while OnePlus 3 combines them smarter. That goes with it are delays on even simple tasks, until reaching problems when typing with the virtual keyboard coupled with Hangouts.

The Grace UX, in short, in addition to having the clear software problems, is less “light” of the skin of the competition, and this is a problem that Samsung goes behind for years. The shadow of “lagwiz”, in short, is still present, but remember that we must not fall into the error of thinking that all notes 7 to behave in the same way (depends on many variables).
yet. Notes 7 comes with 64GB of internal memory (Note 5 had 32), but how fast this memory? GSMArena carried out a series of tests and benchmarks on the internal memory and a microSD Transcend 32 GB Class 10 UHS-I. You have to remember, before you see the results, which for Samsung Note 7 uses the standard memory UFS 2.0, used by the Galaxy S6 on, much faster than the eMMC standard typically used in smartphones and extremely faster than the microSD memory .
the results: the reading and writing tests do understand the important gap c ‘it is between the internal memory and a microSD to Notes 7 (6 times greater for the internal read and write 7 times). Simply put, looking at the data, Galaxy Note 7 is slightly lower in performance than the Galaxy S7, but also less than 5 notes (you read that right). Move an app on microSD not mean to slow it down force, but anyway, and of course, the results show a clear difference compared to the fast UFS 2.0 memory.
And if we add that according to the endurance test famous youtuber JerryRigEverything Samsung Galaxy Note 7 is not as “indestructible”, the issue is complicated. As seen in the video, despite Notes 7 it is equipped with the new Gorilla Glass 5, already at level 3 the screen starts to be scratched fairly obvious. Anyway Corning has defended his creation, ensuring a much higher resistance than the fourth iteration of the famous glass.
Finally a drop test that shows still a good resistance of the device. Notes 7 goes on sale in Italy from September 2 at the price of 879 Euros.
