A leaked Sprint promotional planogram for the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 suggests that the phablet will be "big, bold" and "beautiful."

Various rumors about the Galaxy Note 7 have been surfacing in the smartphone market and the leaked Sprint planogram confirms some of them. A previous Tech Times report has highlighted that Samsung will introduce a redesigned S Pen stylus with new Air Command menu for the Galaxy Note 7.

The planogram says that the Galaxy Note 7 will have "the most powerful and precise S Pen yet."

The upcoming mobile phone from Samsung will be water-resistant like its predecessor. Sprint's leaked marketing material says that the device will have "fast autofocus for clear photos, even in low light."

Samsung was criticized by customers for not including a microSD card slot in the Galaxy S6 and the Galaxy Note 5 launched in 2015. The Korean company seems to have listened to customer feedback and the Galaxy S7, which was launched in February, came with a microSD card slot.

Speculations are rife that Samsung will re-introduce a microSD card slot in the Galaxy Note 7, and the Sprint planogram affirms those rumors. Customers of the new device will be able to increase the storage capacity to up to 256 GB with a microSD card.

The leaked Sprint planogram does not reveal any other details, but the Samsung offering is expected to include a Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 processor and 6 GB of RAM. The handset is likely to come running on Android 6.0 Marshmallow operating system.

Samsung is all set to launch the Galaxy Note 7 on Aug. 2 and carriers are also preparing for the expected rush because of the device. Best Buy prematurely listed the Galaxy Note 7 on its website with a "coming soon" status. The retailer realized the error and was swift enough to take down the listing. According to another Phone Arena report, an unnamed Verizon Wireless employee has also confirmed that the carrier will start taking preorders on Aug. 3.

Galaxy Note 7 fans in Dubai can already preorder the phablet for AED 500, or about $130.

The Galaxy Note 7 is undoubtedly one of the most anticipated smartphones of this year. Samsung is yet to confirm any details of the handset but just like its predecessors, the Galaxy Note 7 is estimated to be one of the most powerful Android mobile phones at launch.

It remains to be seen if the Galaxy Note 7 lives up to the expectations and if can attract smartphone enthusiasts.
