Samsung galaxy S7 Edge
The Galaxy S6 was Samsung’s plunge into premium materials for its flagship line, which had long since suffered ridicule for its extensive use of plastic. The Galaxy S7 is the evolutionary upgrade that follows, building upon the S6’s foundations.
Design has been refined, with clues taken from the Note5 which split in half the year between the two S-models’ releases. Under the hood, the latest silicon churns higher numbers, but the headlines are in other areas - a brand new dual-pixel 12MP camera, the return of environmental sealing and microSD expansion, plus an extra-large battery. In other words - the Galaxy S6, only better.
Galaxies were all made of plastic, Samsung S-series flagships, that is. Then came the Galaxy S6, Samsung’s response to plastic-hating users and reviewers, and it brought materials, look and feel up to the standard required in the segment. Samsung committed to the dual-glass design and on the S7 we see it taken a step up.
