Its no longer news that Samsung has finally popped the Galaxy Note 7 after a great deal of anticipation with the device featuring almost all the specs Samsung was rumored to be infusing into the Note 7. However, one bit that might have left some a little disappointed is the lack of a 6GB RAM on the models launched during the  7 Unpacked event.

Soon after the launch though, we got wind that Samsung actually produced a 6GB RAM version for the Note 7 and that version was spotted on China’s Telecoms regulatory agency TENAA’s website. The TENAA listing revealed the Galaxy  Note 7 features 6GB of RAM with a giant 128GB built-in storage, showing prospects of being one for those who love having lots of apps on their smartphone.

Samsung had been silent on this discovery all these while, but the Korean electronics giant seems to have broken its silence. Speaking for the first time about the 6GB RAM + 128GB ROM high-end version, Samsung’s Head of Mobile Communications Business, D.J Koh hinted that the company is working on the high-end 6GB RAM + 128GB ROM version for the Chinese market due to the fact that Chinese phonemakers seem to have shifted the battle ground to outwit each other to the memory size, both RAM and ROM sizes.

The statement as reported by the Korea Herald, is perhaps an indication that the 6GB RAM + 128GB ROM edition of the Note 7 will be exclusive to the Chinese market, at least for now. The Samsung Exec, however, suggested that even though it would be exclusive to China, the 6GB RAM Galaxy Note 7 may find its way into other markets as time progresses but for now, it is China’s version.

Samsung formally unveiled the Galaxy Note 7 is an action packed ceremony on August 2, thus effectively putting to rest the avalanche of rumors surrounding the device. But the rumor mills never go to rest, especially on this sleek gadget as there are news about a 6GB RAM of the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 in the works somewhere.

The Galaxy Note 7 was released with a 4GB RAM as the custom RAM size on all variants of the device but the Note 7 had earlier been rumored to have seen an upgrade from 4GB RAM to 6GB RAM. However the launch of the device was thought to have put to rest that rumor.

Now, facts have emerged from a recent filing on TENAA that there is actyually a 6GB RAM in the works. The filling revealed what could be a top-end version of the Chinese edition of the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 packing a 6GB RAM pairing up with a monstrous 128GB of built-in storage.

The TENAA listing was made public on August 4, with model number SM-N9300, and corresponds with a GeekBench posting about a device with similar model number, both showing the Galaxy Note 7 (SM-N9300) llistedas a 6GB RAM packing version.

Ordinarily, we had wondered the need for a 6GB RAM on the Galaxy Note 7 from the technical point of view, considering that apps are getting smaller in size, Android is also getting slimmer and running too many background apps would only drain the battery faster. But then, we are talking about China where a lot of mobile phone manufacturers have ventured into production of flagships with 6GB RAM in order to outwit competitors. The OnePlus 3 is the latest with such feature and it won’t be a bad idea if Samsung offers a 6GB RAM version on the Note 7 at least to ensure it doesn’t lose a few customers to the extremely strong competition in the country.
