Galaxy Note 7 allegedly revealed in image - CNET

Samsung's upcoming Galaxy Note 7 has been the subject of countless rumors, and a new image allegedly reveals what it will look like.

The image -- a drawing, not a photo -- was tweeted by known leaker @evleaks, aka Evan Blass. The device in the image features a dual curved display, which backs up previous reports of such a screen. If true, the Note 7 would be the first Galaxy Note phablet to sport a wraparound screen, which has popped up on prior Samsung phones, such as the Galaxy S6 Edge, the Galaxy S6 Edge+ and the Galaxy S7 Edge. A phablet is a hybrid of a phone and tablet, or a large-screen phone.

Samsung had been in a slump for a couple of years, struggling with sluggish smartphone sales. But hot demand for the Galaxy S7 lineup has helped revive business this year. The company may be hoping the same magic works with the new Galaxy Note, especially if the curved display proves a draw for consumers.

The image also displays the familiar S-Pen stylus used to scribble notes and drawings on the screen. The physical home button would likely be outfitted with the phone's fingerprint sensor, though rumors say the Note 7 will also include an iris scanner for added security.

A standard 3.5mm audio jack, a USB port, a microphone, a speaker and the housing for the S Pen Stylus can also be seen in the alleged image.
