When dismantling the old Samsung Note7 iron version, are there any other changes besides the battery?

The Galaxy Note8, Samsung's flagship of the new year, is about to debut, while the old version of Note7 with batteries replaced( Fan Edition )It was also officially launched at this juncture, but for users who like Note7 very much, it is actually a blessing. It is also good to buy and collect it. This machine has the same Exynos 8890 processor, 2K screen, 4GB memory, iris recognition, etc., but the only difference is the 3200mAh battery. Will the interior of its body change?

Some parameters:

  • 5.7 inch Super AMOLED display, 2560 x 1440 resolution, the fifth generation gorilla glass

  • Exynos 8890 eight core processor with 4GB memory

  • 12 megapixel camera, f/1.7 aperture, optical anti shake

  • 64GB UFS 2.0 storage space, supporting microSD card expansion

  • Iris recognition, fingerprint sensor

  • S Pen, USB-C interface, 3.5mm headphone interface

  • IP68 waterproof and dustproof

Give Samsung a like first, because they didn't throw away the Note7 that they had recycled before, but gave them new life by replacing the safe battery. It is reported that Samsung has only produced 400000 old iron versions of Note7, but it has recycled 4 million before. Now let's compare the old iron versions of Note7 and Note7. Will there be any difference between them?

After removing the back glass of the old iron version of Note7, let's see what will be different inside. BTW: The removal process is still very difficult.

After a careful look, we can see that there are still some differences. After removing the mask, we can finally see the biggest difference between this phone and its predecessor, that is, the battery.

The battery is brand new~It can be seen that the production date is June 20, 2017, which is very, very new. The capacity is a little smaller than that of the original Note7. The old version is 3200 mAh, while its predecessor is 3500 mAh. However, it is still larger than that of the iPhone 7 Plus. The battery should be smaller, and it should be safer. At least you can get on the plane now.

In addition, the battery weight of the old iron plate is 45.4g, 2.3g lighter than the original Note7, and the battery size is 37.4 x 97.2 x 5mm. The overall volume has also been reduced slightly.

Some foreign and domestic media have said that the processor of the old iron version of Note7 is Snapdragon 821, but this is obviously impossible because this mobile phone has marked the use of eight core processors( And is   2.3GHz+1.6GHz frequency )This is Samsung's own Exynos 8890, and both the Snapdragon 820 and 821 are just four cores~

The old version is almost the same as the original version of Note7. Of course, in addition to reducing the battery capacity and making it safer, we are more concerned about: will there be any difference in the endurance? Maybe we( Official number: Love to play computer games )You can also get one for evaluation in the future.
