14 DAY TRIAL // Samsung's Galaxy Note 7 will finally arrive tomorrow, with the unveiling event scheduled to start at 11.00 am EST, in New York. The company has announced today that it will organize similar events in London and Rio de Janeiro, but only the Galaxy Note Unpacked 2016 presentation in New York will be broadcast live on its website.
Samsung has also informed us that the event can be watched on PCs, mobile phones, and even with the Gear VR, after users install the Unpacked 360 View app from the Oculus Store. 360 Live Stream is also available for the event.
In addition, a new report shows three new tricks that the S Pen will incorporate, according to Android Galaxys. Specifically, the S Pen will come with a Translate feature that will help users translate words that are in a foreign language. Leaked images show that users simply need to hover the S Pen over a word in order to get its translation. The new tool allows users to hear the pronunciation by tapping on the speaker icon.
The new Gear VR might work with other Samsung flagships
The second trick is Magnify, which enables users to zoom in on certain areas of the screen by hovering the S Pen, and not by using gestures. The Glance feature allows users to switch between applications by using the S Pen, all they need to do is hover the S Pen over the thumbnail. These new features will improve user experience, coupled with the fact that the S Pen is rumored to work underwater.
The Galaxy Note 7 might not be the only device launched during the Galaxy Note Unpacked 2016 event, as rumors point to the fact that Samsung will release a new Gear VR as well. In fact, press renders of the Note 7 and the new Gear VR leaked just a few days ago.
Rumors say that the new Gear VR will be compatible with the Note 7, which means that it will have USB Type-C ports but will also work with Samsung flagship phones as far back as the Galaxy S6. The new Gear VR is said to have a wider 110-degree view compared to its predecessor's 96 degrees.
