Samsung announced new models of its flagship Galaxy smartphone line, the S7 and S7 Edge at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona. Compared to last year’s S6 and S6 Edge the new models presents new more refined design language with subtle tweaks and high-end materials for Samsung.
Features include waterproof engineering (allowing submersion in water up to 30 minutes) and expandable microSD card storage by up to an additional 200GB. The S7′s camera has been reduced to 12 megapixels from last year’s 16 megapixels. However, the larger pixels and f/1.7 aperture let in 95 percent more light compared to the previous camera. A new Always-On screen feature keeps the time and a calendar on the lockscreen permanently, shutting off only when the phones are put in a pocket. With fast charging and wireless charging features, the S7′s 3,000mAh and the S7 Edge’s 3,600mAh batteries translate to solid all-day use.
Samsung Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge will be internationally available on March 11, with prices inline with last year’s models.
