That doesn't mean it'll sell online only, though.
The Samsung Galaxy Note 7 will debut on Amazon for online sales, sources in the know of Samsung’s plans confirmed. It would be a stretch to imagine Samsung going for an online only sales model, and we wouldn’t expect that either, but the company seems to have chosen Amazon as its preferred partner for launching its flagship smartphone online. The Samsung Galaxy Note 7 is expected to be launched in India tomorrow, and should be priced similar to the company’s flagship Galaxy S-series smartphones. We reached out to Samsung for a comment, but haven’t heard back from the company.
The Galaxy Note 7 has a dual-edge display, along with 4GB of RAM. While we don’t yet know whether the Exynos or Snapdragon-powered variant of the Galaxy Note 7 will be sold in India, Samsung’s history suggests the Exynos 8890 will be powering the Indian variant. The Note 7 also has 64GB of internal storage, and some new features for Samsung’s S-Pen. Samsung has also added a Windows Hello-like Iris Scanner to the device.
Samsung is the second big smartphone maker to have left Flipkart’s marketplace in favour of Amazon. Earlier, Motorola had decided to move to an Amazon exclusive model for its Moto G4 smartphone. While Samsung won’t be selling the Note 7 on Amazon alone, it will be launched online on the website, and then move to others as well.
