You’ll be able to get a Galaxy Note7 after all… well kind of. #Note7 #Samsung

You have to question the timing here. 

A couple of weeks back we heard the rumor that Samsung was going to sell again the Note7 devices they had returned due defective hardware.

The Korean giant itself said that was not true soon afterwards, but we received an official press release saying otherwise.

Apparently the deal consist on different scenarios where you could actually get a Note7 as a refurbished unit or even “rent” one where available.

Devices that cannot be given back to customers, will be recycle in an environmental way and the elements that can’t go for that process will be used for test samples.

Yet its still to be seen where they’re going to be available and what exactly they meant by “rent” a device.

Samsung share no information regarding prices or markets that could find the devices in store. But as soon as we have more information we will let you now if you would be actually able to get one.

But if it’s possible, would you get yourself a Note7 again? Would you go for the upcoming S8 or wait for Note8?

It’s official! @SamsungMobile confirms #GalaxyNote7 will be launched at #Unpacked2016 in August 2nd.

It shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone by now, but ’till yesterday everything was nothing but speculation about whether or not the next Note series was going to be the 6th or the 7th.

It Was Samsung itself who clarified everything, with a special invitation to book in our calendars August 2nd as the day of the Unpacked 2016 event. Where we will meet the new Galaxy Note 7.

Why 7?

The Galaxy Note7 will  complement our Galaxy S7 and S7 edge.

There’s been plenty of rumors about new design language but still nothing official, what we DO know for sure now, is that the new Note will bring enhanced S-Pen features (as you can tell from the image above) and an Larger screen.

The main event will take place in New York at 11:00 a.m. EDT but just in case you’re worried, this Note will find its way to the UK this time as simultaneous event will be held in Rio de Janeiro at noon and in London at 4:00 p.m.

Join us that day on twitter at @techbuzzireland and @VicenteA_George and stay tune for all the buzz.
