WE MAY BE JUST days away from the official unveiling of the Galaxy S7, but that hasn't stopped the Galaxy Note 6 falling victim to rumours.

Weibo user HQ Vision said that you may not want to get your Galaxy S7 pre-order in just yet, as the Galaxy Note 6 will trump it in terms of performance as the first smartphone to ship with 6GB of LPDDR4 RAM.

This adds weight to the hard-to-believe rumour that the Galaxy Note 6 could also be the first in the series to transform into a makeshift PC. Speculation suggests that the Galaxy Note 6 will ship with a docking station that will enable the Android-powered phablet to transform into a fully-fledged Windows machine. Still, even despite talk of 6GB of RAM, we'd advise taking this rumour with a pinch of salt.

This isn't all HQ Vision has for us. The Galaxy Note 6 will apparently feature a 5.8in 2560x1440 screen, bigger than the 5.7in display on the Galaxy Note 5, which will, of course, support Samsung's S Pen stylus.

We're unlikely to see the Galaxy Note 6 for a few months yet, but the leak also points to a 12MP rear-facing camera with optical image stabilisation, 64GB or 128GB of built-in storage, and two processor options, probably Snapdragon or Exynos depending on region.

The Galaxy Note 6 first made its way onto our radar last week after a report from TechRadar revealed, via a loose-lipped Samsung spokesperson, that the Galaxy Note 6 will come to the UK later this year, following the backlash the company received for not bringing the Galaxy Note 5 to Europe last year.

This will come at a cost, though, as the spokesperson said that Samsung has canned the rumoured Galaxy S7 Edge+ in order to do so.

"Samsung isn't going to launch the S7 Edge+ in the UK. I got the impression that it had been a bit of a disappointment sales-wise and that the decision to keep the Note 5 out of Europe is now considered a mistake," said the source.

"So our information is that the Note 6 will launch in the UK in August and that there will be no S7 Edge+." µ
