7 Reasons to Wait for Galaxy S7

There are many great Android smartphones available right now, and buyers are probably considering all their options, like the Nexus 6P or Galaxy S6. Here we will mention a few reasons to wait until the Samsung Galaxy S7 is released.

A new Samsung Galaxy is coming earlier this year, as Samsung has done for the past few years. However, this year the company wants to be the first to hit the market, and rumor has it the Galaxy S7 will launch in the first week or two of March.

As January draws to a close, Samsung has announced an event called Samsung Unpacked, set for February 21 in Barcelona, ​​Spain. This is where the two new Samsung Galaxy S7 phones will be announced and quickly launched. Below are a few details on the release, what to expect from the phones, and why the Galaxy S7 is worth the wait.

There is no doubt that the new Galaxy S7 will be better than the previous year, the Galaxy S6. This is the natural evolution of the smartphone market. However, from everything we’ve seen so far, it will look extremely similar to last year in every way.

At first users might see this and think it’s not much new as Apple did with its annual “s” release, but in 2016 buyers are getting a brand new Galaxy with tons of great features, improved battery life and more. We’ll cover all of these and more below.

better performance

Countless rumors and leaked tests have confirmed that the Galaxy S7 will be the most powerful Samsung device ever released. While we don’t know everything yet, we have a good idea of ​​what to expect.

The Samsung Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 Edge will be powered by the new and improved Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 processor with 8 cores and 4GB of RAM. The Galaxy Note 5 was older and had an 8-core processor that wasn’t fast or efficient, and only 3GB of RAM.

Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 Edge

The Snapdragon 820 will likely be on the Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 Edge in the United States and a few other regions, while the Samsung-made Exynos octa-core chip will be on the phone in most other parts of the world. Some reports state that Samsung’s chip is better, but Qualcomm supports all major 4G LTE networks in the United States.

Yet that’s not the only thing. The Galaxy S7 will also run Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow out of the box. This is the newest, best and most efficient version of Google ever. It performs better, has better battery life with a feature called “Doze”, improved security, native fingerprint support, Samsung and Android Pay, and more.

What all this means is that the Galaxy S7 will be stronger and faster than ever before, be more efficient, outlast the Galaxy S6 and perform great with 4GB of RAM. That’s about as many laptops as a few years ago. Several reports even claim that Samsung’s TouchWiz interface on stock Android will weaken and Samsung worked closely with Google better blending of software with hardware for the best Samsung Galaxy experience ever. We’ll have to wait and see.

Improved Design and Image

The Galaxy S7 will have a 5.1 inch 2560 x 1440 Quad-HD AMOLED HD display. Samsung makes the best screens in any smartphone and has won awards three years in a row. The Galaxy Note 5 looks great and is still the best display I’ve ever used on a smartphone.

The same great tech will be added to the even smaller 5.1-inch display on the Galaxy S7, and we hear the Galaxy S7 Edge will be 5.5 inches. It’s neither too small nor too big, like the Galaxy S6 Edge released last year and the massive Galaxy S6 Edge+.

Samsung has improved its display technology with each release, and we expect an improved display once again this year. Including the curved 5.5-inch Galaxy S7 Edge.

All that said, the overall design will be nearly identical. Numerous rumors suggest that they retained last year’s award-winning design, but rounded the edges and curved the back. This will make it easier to hold and feel thinner than in the hand, just like the Note 5.

Expect the Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge to look very similar to last year, but better in every way. The new camera, which we will talk about below, is also thinner, so there will be no huge bulge on the back. It will be fast, sleek, made of glass and aluminum, and will be its best device to date.

New and Better Camera

The Galaxy S and Note series have all had 16-megapixel cameras in the last few years. Last year Galaxy S6 and Galaxy Note 5 had 16 megapixel options like the previous year but it has been improved. Things like faster shutter speed, advanced controls, optical image stabilization and other additions. The Note 5 beat the iPhone 6 in camera reviews, it was that good.

But this year things will be different. In 2016, the Galaxy S7 will only have a 12-megapixel camera. Wait a minute? This may sound bad and will be a PR nightmare, but the camera will get better and better.

Megapixels are only a small part of the story with the camera. In fact, the new 12-megapixel camera will reportedly be faster, improve low-light performance, and take better photos overall. Leaks suggest it has a larger sensor that lets in more light, but has a fast f/1.7 aperture. The Nexus 6P, iPhone 6s, and more have a similar 12-megapixel camera that works great, so this shouldn’t concern potential buyers.

The new camera has a larger sensor but not that big or deep. That means a smaller bulge at the back for a better design, leaving more room for a larger battery, which we’ll explain below.

All said and done, the Galaxy S7 camera will be better than last year, but we’ll have to wait for the announcement to find out more.

Micro SD Support

The biggest complaint about the Galaxy S6 was that it didn’t have a micro SD slot for owners to expand and add extra storage. We’re stuck on getting 32 or 64GB instead. Being able to add a 128 or even 200GB micro SD card is a huge feature making a comeback.

The Wall Street Journal and popular leakster Evan Blass (@evleaks) have suggested that the Galaxy S7 will return the micro SD slot. This must be huge for many people who hold the Galaxy S5 and skip the Galaxy S6. It was worth the wait and you will want to buy the Galaxy S7. We hope this rumor is true, and most signs point to it being true.

I will add a 200GB micro SD card to mine. To add credibility to these rumors, Android 6.0 Marshmallow has better supports for removable storage, so there’s no reason to exclude it anymore. Expect a micro SD slot on the Galaxy S7, S7 Edge and hopefully the Note 6 later this year.

IP67 Dust and Water Resistant

Another thing that many can look forward to and is a returned feature is the IP67 rating. So the Galaxy S7 will be dust and water resistant. We saw this with the Galaxy S5, but it took a lot of design changes to make it happen.

Multiple different sources claim that the Galaxy S7 will have an IP67 rating. But there will be no ugly and annoying fins on the ports. Instead, the company will likely use a nano-coating on the micro-USB and 3.5mm headphone ports, similar to what Sony has offered on its IP68-certified smartphones for years.

The Galaxy S7 will be better, faster, with a premium design and a micro SD slot, but still as durable as ever. We look forward to an exciting new phone.

Pressure Sensitive Display

In September, Apple launched the new iPhone 6s with 3D Touch, also known as a pressure-sensitive display. This allows for quick access to any new controls, apps or settings, all with more pressing on the screen. To feel the pressure of a touch. Tap to preview, press harder to open. Reviews of 3D Touch are everywhere, and many seem to love it.

Countless rumors, even from major sources like the Wall Street Journal or Reuters, claim that it will launch on the Galaxy S7 as well. We even saw a video highlighting a few potential features Samsung will use. The video below is just a teaser of the possibilities, and we’ll have to wait for the February 21 Galaxy S7 event to know exactly what all Samsung has in mind.

Better Battery Life

Last but not least, battery life. The Galaxy S7 will have a larger battery that lasts longer and charges faster than ever before. The need for a replaceable battery is almost gone.

The Galaxy S5 had a 2,800 mAh battery and most users found it sufficient. Back then last year the Galaxy S6 only had a small 2,550mAh battery, but a more efficient display, processor and software to make up for the difference, but that wasn’t enough. Battery life was a big complaint from all Galaxy S6 owners, and Samsung took notice.

Every rumor we’ve heard so far suggests that the Galaxy S7 will have a larger 3,000mAh battery and the Galaxy S7 Edge will have a larger 3,600mAh battery. The design allows for a larger battery, especially since the camera is smaller and will feature the same Adaptive Fast Charging. Qualcomm Quick Charge 3.0 It will charge the Galaxy S7 from 0-80% in about 35 minutes. Essentially a quick drive home and a few minutes on the charger all owners will need to take them out for an entire evening.

Inside the new Samsung Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 Edge we can expect larger batteries, Fast (or Fast) charging technology and fast wireless charging. To give users as many options as possible.

As of now, Samsung has scheduled the launch event of Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 Edge on February 21. Rumors suggest it will launch internationally around March 3-4 and hit all major carriers on Friday, March 11. That means we’ll know all about it soon, and we could be buying one in a little over a month. Stay tuned for more details.
