Samsung might equip the Galaxy S7 with Snapdragon 820, according to leaked doc

Samsung is already working on the Galaxy S7, and according to a leaked document that showed up in China today, there might be a model of the device that will employ the Snapdragon 820 (with model number MSM8996). The document also shows that a mysterious device dubbed "Jungfrau" has been added to the company's software development plan for Android M. Rumors suggest that "Jungfrau" is the codename for the Galaxy S7, but we're not sure of that yet.

In previous years, Samsung had been using Qualcomm's SoCs on at least one model of its flagship device. But this year, the company used its own Exynos SoC on its flagship devices. For now, it's not certain whether the company will do business with Qualcomm as usual next year, though it would be a welcome development for the users if it works out. See the documents below.

J.K Shin denies early Samsung Galaxy Note 5 launch rumor

If the early Samsung Galaxy Note 5 launch rumor that reared its head on the internet the other day were getting you excited, then you'll be saddened to hear that the company's Mobile president, J.K Shin, has denied the rumor.

The rumor had said that Samsung might launch the Galaxy Note 5 in the end of July instead of early September as it normally do. The reason for the move was that the company planned to take on Apple's upcoming handsets, the iPhone 6s and the iPhone 6s Plus. However, the rumor wasn't true because the move would mess up Samsung's cycle of launching a Galaxy Note flagship. More so, Shin also denied rumors about the Galaxy S6 and the Galaxy S6 Edge doing poorly in the market.

It is noteworthy that, Shin, failed to address the rumor that says Samsung will release another Edge handset before unveiling the Galaxy Note 5 in September. In this case, his silence could mean something.
