The smartphone will be falling in the phablet category, therefore Samsung might opt towards adopting a larger screen. The device will come accompanied with the company's upgraded S Pen as well. The phablet is expected to be powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon 836 chipset. There are other rumors that suggest that the smartphone might even be powered by Exynos 8895 SoC.
