If you've been waiting to see what Samsung's upcoming flagship device, the Galaxy Note 7, will look like ahead of its expected release in August, you need not wait any further.
The front panel of the highly anticipated phablet leaked online, confirming some of the speculation surrounding the several details and features about the smartphone.
The third-party case maker that revealed the LG G5's first look ahead of the phone's official launch in February, has once again spilled the beans with Samsung's Galaxy Note 7.
Photos of Olixar's Samsung Galaxy Note 7 leather and carbon fiber phone cases showed up on retailer Mobile Fun's website for a price of $19.99.
The leak has confirmed multiple reports that the upcoming device will feature a curved edge display, taking inspiration from the design of the Galaxy S7 edge.
The front side of the phone will come equipped with a home button, which also doubles as a fingerprint scanner, as well as a front-facing camera, sensors and what appears to be the rumored iris scanner, which allows users to simply unlock the phone just by looking at it, according to Tech Times.
Samsung has been working on introducing a new security feature to its smartphones for some time now and the iris scanned could prove to be a huge step for the tech giant towards device security.
The Note 7's power button remains on the right side of the device while the volume keys maintain their position on the left.
The device's rear features the recognizable protruding camera, rumored to be a 12-megapixel snapper, LED flash and a heart rate sensor. The back also reveals a cutout on the bottom for the S Pen stylus.
The manufacturer has described the gold carbon fiber case as follows: "Hybrid layers of robust TPU and hardened polycarbonate with bonded premium textured layers and featuring a stunning carbon fiber design, the Olixar NovaShield case in gold keeps your Samsung Galaxy Note 7 safe, sleek and stylish."
The cases are available for pre-order and estimated to ship out on July 13.
This is how Samsung's new iris scanner will work:
