The two new handsets are set to be unveiled at a Samsung event on August 13. But most of the important details have already been revealed.
As well as the high-quality pictures — which show that the two large phones take many of their design queues from the S6 and S6 Edge, released earlier this year — the company has leaked many of their important specifications.
The new Note 5 will have a 5.66-inch screen with a 2560 by 1440 resolution display. It will have 4GB of RAM, a 16 megapixel camera, and run Android 5.1.1, known as lollipop. The Note 5 will also come with a stylus.
The S6 Edge+ is largely a bigger version of the Galaxy S6 Edge. It features many of the same specs but has a slightly different processor.
Neither phone will have a removable SD card or removable battery.
Both of the phones will be officially unveiled at a launch event on August 13.
