Multiple reports stated that Samsung might skip a numeral to release the Galaxy Note 7 later this year, and it also being reported that there will be no flat screen variant of the device. Now, a new image has surfaced that pretty much confirms the name of the next flagship smartphone from Samsung.

A new tweet from serial leaker Evan Blass (@evleaks) consists of what could be an official logo of the Galaxy Note 7. It is possible that the South Korean smartphone giant might release only the curved screen variant of the Galaxy Note 7. It is expected to feature a 5.8-inch curved QHD Super AMOLED display, a 12-megapixel primary camera with new features, a 5-megapixel secondary camera, 6GB RAM, a microSD card slot, and a 4000 mAh battery.

The Galaxy Note 7 could also come with an iris scanner, IP68-certified body for water- and dust-resistance, and a BlackBerry Hub-like Samsung Focus app for enhanced productivity. Samsung is expected to launch the next Galaxy Note smartphone on August 2, 2016, as per a leaked image.

Update: Evan Blass has also confirmed through a separate tweet that the Galaxy Note 7 would feature an iris scanner.
