The rumour mill keeps on turning. Today it produces the idea that the up and coming Samsung Galaxy Note 7 will have a new S-Pen that works under water!
Following in the footsteps of is little brother, rumours suggest that the upcoming Samsung Galaxy Note 7 will also be water resistant. This story might be old news but further reports suggest that Samsung will be taking it a step further. A Vietnamese tech blog (so pinch of salt there) have revealed that the Note 7s S-Pen will also be able to work underwater!

The blog backed up their statement by posting what appears to be an official shot of the phone and stylus on Facebook, spotted by Phone Arena. If true, the image gives us a good look at the device, showing off many of the details we’ve seen before, like a USB-C port, an oblong home button and an iris scanner, all wrapped up in a Blue Coral colour scheme. It could be a useful feature, though I don’t see many people making notes in the bath or when they are doing laps. But it could be great when there is some rain or other dampness about.
There still exists some to and fro between whether the Note 7 will have a curved or flat screen. The images shows a curved screen but recent leaks have also suggested that Samsung might stick with a flat screen. although the leaked picture might be real, it could be one of several “prototype” designs Samsung has considered. It means that we can’t rule out anything at this stage, if the Note 7 does follow this design it isn’t half bad.
