The latest Gorilla Glass 5 covers both the front and back, a metal frame being sandwiched between the two panes. On the sides, the frame is very thin, but it gets thicker around the top and bottom to accommodate ports, slots, and other hardware features. The dual-glass design is known to reduce the grip as it gets slippery, but the metal frame helps to balance this.
The controls are laid out as usual. The iris scanner is the only new thing you may notice at the front, but the good news is you can't insert the S-Pen backwards.
The Samsung Galaxy Note7 is one of the first mobile devices to support HDR video. It's not HDR like in the camera. This one has 10-bit color instead of 8-bit, that's four times the number of shades. This prevents color banding and enables detailed scenes that feature both very bright and very dark areas.
The Samsung Galaxy Note7 is the facelift you've been waiting for - it's a Galaxy S7, but with the rough edges sanded down, new ideas implemented. Not just that, it's the premium version too, adding features that the Galaxy S line will not see until the S8 comes along ( the iris scanner and USB Type-C) .
