Samsung Galaxy S7 Design Rumors Swirl

With 2015 coming to an end and a new smartphone year on the horizon, talk about the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S7 has already begun. In fact, early rumors surfaced in September, and even more details began to emerge with release date rumors in late February.

The Galaxy S6 was launched in April and represented a major shift in Samsung’s design and features. It goes with a radical new premium design made of aluminum and glass instead of the plastics and removable backs typical for the Galaxy S6. Now that the company has a beautiful phone that sells millions, we hear that little will change with the Galaxy S7.

Over the past two months, several rumors have surfaced about a device dubbed Project Lucky for the lucky #7 of the Galaxy S series, with more details coming from what we heard today from “reliable insider sources”. at least according to Korean Timesthat was true in the past.

The Korean Times is a major outlet outside of Korea, where Samsung is headquartered and where many rumors and leaks have surfaced. This week they reportedly received new details about the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S7, and Samsung is working on improving it in a few key areas while keeping the overall striking design fairly similar to last year’s model.

Rumor has it that Samsung has made a huge leap forward in quality and progress from the Galaxy S5 to the Galaxy S6. A shift from cheap plastics and good build quality to a premium high-end device that rivals the iPhone 6s and many other popular smartphones. The Galaxy S6 and similarly designed Galaxy Note 5 have been well received, so the company sees no reason to change that.

The Korean Times reports that Samsung is trying to maintain a similar look, feel and design for the new Galaxy S7 from 2016, but with a few key changes to deliver a better overall experience. That is, they will have the same or similar design that many like, saving you from having to change those costs to improve other areas of the phone.

Just like Apple, LG and even HTC have a similar design year after year but improve and improve the experience with each new release. The Samsung Galaxy S7 will follow a similar trend, with major areas of change and innovation in display, camera and overall device performance and enhancements. Apple did this with the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6s release, and Samsung could do something similar in 2016.

A source said a major surface overhaul each year is a waste of money that could be spent elsewhere. As a result, Samsung may try to maintain a similar design while offering a better screen, improved camera, better battery life, more software features, and more hardware improvements like Samsung Pay and Fast Wireless charging.

We’ve also heard from several different reports that Samsung may be returning the micro SD slot with the Galaxy S7, which is a huge pain point for Galaxy S6 owners. It allows buyers to get a 32GB Galaxy S7 and add as much storage as they want with a micro SD slot. This was the core feature of all Samsung products until 2015 and thus they received a lot of negative feedback.

As a result, the report states that users can expect the new Galaxy S7, and even the Galaxy Note 6, to have a similar overall look and feel, but with great displays, fast 8-core processors, the latest hardware and software, and more sleek and stylish than ever before. be better. The Korean Times report specifically mentions expanded storage and improved battery life. With all that said, if some recent rumors are true, we only have to wait 2-3 months before the Galaxy S7 is fully unveiled by the company at the Mobile World Congress at the end of February. Stay tuned for more details.
