Samsung today launched there new devices to join there S series line up, the Galaxy S7 and the Galaxy S7 Edge. As the leaks and rumors surrounding the Galaxy S7 have been coming in fiercely over the past few months, giving us a really solid sense of what to expect from the hardware.
Samsung galaxy S7 and S7 Edge Features
- For starters, there’s the always-on display we were told to expect, letting you catch up with your notifications without needing to stumble through a lock screen.
- And microSD expansion? That’s back, just as rumored, with a hybrid SIM/SD tray giving users access to removable storage.
- Another big returning feature – one that skipped the GS6 – is water resistance, with both phones scoring an IP68 rating against water and dust.
- How about that camera? Samsung’s cutting its raw megapixel count to focus on image quality, giving both the GS7 and GS7 edge a 12MP Dual Pixel sensor – one it says should optimize low-light performance in concert with the camera’s quite large f/1.7 aperture. And with OIS, your pics should be nice and sharp. Up front, we see another f/1.7 aperture, this time with a 5MP sensor.
- Batteries are just as large as we hoped, with the GS7 getting a 3000mAh component, while the GS7e goes all out with a 3600mAh battery. Both phones support wireless charging.

Samsung doesn't said anything about pricing. With that said, it is entirely reasonable to expect the Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge to be priced similarly to its predecessors.Availability of both Galaxy S7 models begins in mid-March. There is no such news about availability in India yet, but we can expect that these smartphones will hit the Indian market by the end of March.Source: Samsung
