Note 7 specs - whoa! (if it becomes a reality..)

If it doesn't come with 64 gb as the base model for Verizon, the hell with Samsung then. 32 is not nearly enough for a power-user, flagship phone. I am tired of having to delete apps on my N4 because the internal is already full and I have moved all of the apps I possibly can to the SD card already. That problem will only get worse with bigger OS's and bigger apps, etc. 64 gb better be the default minimum or I will for sure look elsewhere for my next phone.

This is the case I like the best so far of what I have seen on Amazon. Simple, slim and I like having the buttons on the side uncovered, they are easier to find. I also like the renders of the phone you can find on the different listings for N7 cases - best renders I have seen.

If they had a crystal clear version of that, it would have been one of my pre-orders too.

I already ordered a couple from ali express that were labeled as ultra thin.

And, once it is available, will be creating custom skin on skint or decal girl

I typically have preferred going naked on my devices before, but when I discovered ultra thin crystal clear TPU cases that just protected cosmetic things on the phone, that's what I've gone for anytime I was using a case. That said, most of my phones in the past have had removable batteries, until my Mate 8. Now, for the Note 7, I may look into a custom stick on skin that'll cover top bottom and sides, as well as the back. Those were never really available (as far as side, top and bottom coverage), due to my past phones not having a unibody configuration.
 
I didn't realize the Spigen case I linked above was a hard case. I also like the ultra-slim TPU cases - they feel good in hand and protect very well while being very thin. So I will probably look for a thin TPU case in either black or clear.

Teegunn do you (or I invite anybody else that might) know any custom skin making websites that also have full coverage skin wrap that cover side, top and bottom of the phone?

This will be the 2nd phone I've ever had (aside from the Mate 8) that has a unibody design without a removable battery and I've always wanted to get a skin, like they offer for the iPhone, where it actually wraps around the entire body (and has cutouts accordingly, for all the ports).

I don't know of any sites as I have never used a skin either. Does the skin offer drop protection or is it mostly a piece you'd stick on kind of like a plastic screen protector? I personally like TPU cases because they still offer good drop protection. The display is about the only thing I would worry about on my phone if I was using a TPU case, and I expect to use the curved glass tempered protector (I think it was you that linked it) that was linked either in this thread or another. If you find a site that does the Skin, link it here and I will be interesting to see what they entail. If it offers drop protection I will also be interested.
 
I doubt it has 6gb ram. I think the leaked benchmark tests are a pretty solid sign we are getting the S7 Snapdragon 820 with 4gb. That really is a huge disappointment. I would be very surprised if we got a different processor and more RAM.

If you're in the US or China. It likely will be Qualcomm Snapdragon, because Samsung's Exynos doesn't support CDMA.

That's the first I've heard about the Exynos processor not supporting CDMA. As I recall, the Note 2 rocked the Exynos processor for Sprint & Verizon.

I wasn't aware of that with Note 2, but on the other hand the S7 sports a Qualcomm processor for those carriers, and China Telecom as well. I think everyone else in the world gets Exynos in their S7s.

Could be Samsung used to license CDMA/EVDO for their Exynos, but no longer does. AFAIK it's Qualcomm that owns most of the patents related to it.

It's really for cosmetic protection, more than anything else. Having a full coverage skin could get me back to using a naked phone again.

Most of the skins that have "full coverage" are not customizable. Invisible Shield was the first to provide "full coverage" skin.
