New rumors are suggesting that Samsung Galaxy Note 6 is on the way.

International Business Times reported that Samsung is more popular in their Note series than their S series. Unfortunately, the new Galaxy Note 5 did not impress many.

In fact, users were disappointed that the new Note flagship is similar to the Galaxy S6. The two devices have the same specifications and their noticeable difference was only their screen size. For this reason, many are expecting that Galaxy Note 6 will be a big time.

Based on Samsung's website, Galaxy Note 5 is slimmer than its predecessor and it is framed in sleek metal and glass. Users can use S Pen on its gorgeous flat surface. The new Note also offers a more reliable power because it has longer battery life and features fast charging.

It has a powerful camera to capture the important events in your life. It also features SideSync, to easily connect your notes and files from your phone to your laptop. You can respond to texts, reminders and alerts even when you're on your computer.

Galaxy Note 5 also comes with Gather Around and Samsung Pay features. However, despite having these impressive specifications, fans remained unimpressed.

Customers felt that Samsung messed with them when they launch Galaxy Note 5. Thus, the South Korean company might have some interesting plans for their next Galaxy Note, according to KnowYourMobile.

So, what can fans expect from Galaxy Note 6? According to rumors, the device might feature the following:

  1. Better camera sensor - Samsung usually increases their camera pixels but it's the sensor that determines the quality of the picture. There are speculations that Samsung will not apply its "pixel increased trend" this time but will work on improving the camera sensor instead.
  2. Better battery - Galaxy Note 5 boasted about its 3,000mAH battery life but it was not enough to keep up with its cutting edge technology. Other devices are already powered by a 4,000mAH battery. Thus, Samsung fans can expect that Galaxy Note 6 will come with a better and stronger battery.
  3. MicroSD - Since the Note series is a phablet, fans need more storage. Many were disappointed when Samsung discarded the microSD card slot last year. However, the rumor mills reported that it might be brought back in the Note 6.
  4. 3D Touch - Apple introduced this technology to iPhone 6S last year, where users can access several function by pressing the screen. Many are expecting that Note 6 will arrive with the same feature.

What do you think of these specs and features? When do you think Galaxy Note 6 will arrive? Share your thoughts below.
