Hardly a day goes by where Samsung’s Galaxy Note 6 (or Note 7?) isn’t leaked in some shape or form. Today is no different.
A mysterious UA Profile has appeared on Samsung’s own website, possibly hinting at the existence of the Samsung Galaxy Note 6. The profile is for a device with the model number ‘SM-N930F’, although no such handset exists.
However, the Galaxy Note 6 has been rumoured under that model number previously. Moreover, that number follows the naming convention for previous Note handsets: Note 5 (SM-N920), Note 4 (SM-N910), Note 3 (SM-9005), and so on.
A UA (User Agent) Profile is a file that contains information about a device, like model number, screen size, character set support, etc. They’re intended to be used by content providers to ensure that media displays in the correct format for a given handset’s preferences. A UA Profile will, for instance, help make sure that a website displays in the correct resolution on your phone screen.
Interestingly, the SM-N930F profile doesn’t contain any information about phone features, which suggests that Samsung is intentionally keeping the page ‘dumb’ until the phone actually launches.

Samsung is expected to launch its next Note handset at a dedicated Galaxy Unpacked event in New York on August 2. Of course, Samsung is keeping tight-lipped about the matter for now, so stay tuned.
