The Galaxy Note 7 is coming in early August, Android fans, but we’ve seen the phablet in a significant number of leaks already. However, a brand new press render leak offers us our best look at the Galaxy Note 7, complete with its essential accessory.

DON’T MISS: Upcoming iPhone 7 looks hotter than ever in new leaked photos

Posted online by renowned leaker Evan Blass, the press render features a phone we’ve seen in other leaks before. We’re looking at a rather thin device that sports almost the same design as the Galaxy S7 edge. We’re looking at curved edges, as there’s no flat version for this Note model.

“Samsung’s Galaxy Note 7 is a big bet that may pay off for the entire industry,” Blass wrote on Twitter, referring to Samsung’s decision not to have a flat Galaxy Note this year. This marks the first year where Samsung’s newest Note will come in a single form factor that doesn’t happen to be one we expect, given that the vast majority of mobile devices have a flat surface.

Other details we can easily notice in the render are the new stylus that goes inside the phablet alongside the right edge, the physical home button that houses the fingerprint reader, and the ports arrangement on the bottom. We’ve got a regular 3.5mm headphone jack, a USB-C port, a microphone, a speaker, and the S Pen enclosure.

The Galaxy Note 7 will be unveiled on August 2nd, and the phablet might be available for preorder on the same day.
