There have been rumors circulating on the internet regarding the on-going development of Samsung Galaxy Note 6. The South Korean tech giant has not yet released an official announcement or confirmation of the new Galaxy Note model, although the users are speculating that the next generation of Samsung phablet is well on its way now. Packing with high-level features and upgraded security measures, Samsung Galaxy Note is rumored to be released Fall 2016.

According to the latest rumors, Samsung is already nearing the final stages of Galaxy Note 6's development. If there will be no other factors affecting the production, the new phablet units will be out in September this year, possibly earlier if time permits. However, as Samsung remains silent amid the rumored release of Galaxy Note 6 this year, the public must be very careful in taking in these information.

The news website Yibada reported the possible use of iris scanner for the security setting of Galaxy Note 6. Fingerprint scanning has been a huge improvement in the security measures of today's smartphones, and most of the latest smartphone models have already adopted this feature. This is why Samsung is reportedly setting up a new trend by incorporating the iris scanning feature to their new Galaxy Note units. Supporting this rumor is the report from Galaxy Club that the company filed for the patenting of Samsung Iris and Samsung Eyeprint trademarks in the European Union.

Other rumored features of the Samsung Galaxy Note 6 are the 5.8-inch screen display with 2560 x 1440 pixel maximum resolution. It will boast an impressive memory with 64 GB memory. Its internal memory may still be increased up to 128 GB while the phablet will have 6 GB worth of RAM. Galaxy Note 6 is reportedly using the Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 chipset. Moreover, the Australia Network News reported that the upcoming Galaxy Note 6 will have a battery capacity of 4,000 mAh, a huge improvement compared to the older Galaxy Note models.
