Samsung has launch Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 Edge Smartphone last year and both flagships are exceptionally well in design as well in performance. The company has shown the world what a high end mobile is. In the beginning of 2016, we all are just expecting a more stylish and premium flagship and Samsung has again proven to best. So finally, Samsung has announced Galaxy S7 Flagship. Samsung has launch both Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 edge . You can try you hands on these phablets by March 11 which is not too far from here. Here we are going to talk about most Specifications and features of Samsung’s Galaxy S7 Flagship.
After months of speculation, Samsung has unveiled the two latest flagship phones in its long line of Galaxy handsets. Much has been rumoured and leaked about the Samsung Galaxy S7 and Samsung Galaxy S7 edge devices in the build up to the Korean company’s Mobile World Congress 2016 press conference, but they are now official and fully revealed. Contrary to early belief, there’s no Samsung Galaxy S7 edge+ yet – with a possible launch for that device touted for much later in the year – but with the extra-sized 5.5-inch screen on the S7 edge, perhaps it’s not even needed. Anyhow, let’s turn our attention onto the two handsets Samsung has officially announced. Here’s everything you need to know about the SGS7 and SGS7 edge.
Although the two new handsets share a couple of design cues and are clearly in the same family, this year’s models are differently sized. The Samsung Galaxy S7, like the SGS6, is a 5.1-inch phone, while the Galaxy S7 edge has had a jump to 5.5-inches. The latter also seems to feature the biggest differences in overall design on a year-to-year basis. Samsung has got rid of the sharper edge and flat back of the Galaxy S6 edge, replacing it with a curved rear that wraps around to meet the edges of the curved screen. The end result is a more rounded phone that feels smoother and more comfortable in the hand. Like last year’s version, the standard Galaxy S7 also has a rounded back – from the rear both the S7 and edge look similar, if different sizes – but the front face is naturally flat. Both phones feel nice in the hand but the SGS7 edge is perhaps the more premium of the two in aesthetic terms.
Both phones feature QHD (2560x1440 pixel) Super AMOLED displays, with the Galaxy S7's 5.1in setup packing in 577ppi, and the larger 5.5in Galaxy S7 edge a slightly lower, but no less impressively sharp 534ppi. They're also both equipped with a new camera setup with a 12MP sensor - that's lower than last year's, but don't fret because it's a deliberate move towards better image quality by instead focusing on a wider f/1.7 aperture, a larger 1.4um pixel size, and a dual-pixel sensor with 100% phase detection.
Samsung has also added the rumoured "Always On" feature to the display functionality on both devices. This is similar to Always On features we've seen before, utilising the ability of OLED to display information on-screen while consuming very little power by only selectively lighting certain pixels. In practice this means the feature can display the date, time, and notifications for quick at-a-glance information without draining the battery much at all.
The processor found in each device is identical. Samsung claims that it runs 30 per cent faster than the Exynos CPU used last year, while the GPU runs a mighty 64 per cent faster.
To achieve that, Samsung has switched back to a Qualcomm processor this year – at least in some territories, such as the UK and US. It has adopted a Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 octa-core SoC.
There will be two variants of each phone, with two different processors depending on the market (we think it will boil down to whether it is LTE capable or not).
In the UK and US, we strongly expect that we'll get the better, higher powered processor - the octa-core (2.3GHz quad, 1.6GHz quad), 64 bit, 14nm Snapdragon.
Previous reports claimed that as well as that processor, the phones each come with Adreno 530 graphics and 4GB of RAM. And while the former is still to be officially confirmed, the latter has been.
One interesting addition to both phones is a tiny heatsink with water cooling that will keep the GPU temperature down during particularly graphics intensive operations - such as gaming.
"The Galaxy S7 is slated to go on sale in 60 countries on March 11. We expect its sales to surpass shipments of the previous model, the Galaxy S6," he said. For reference, Samsung's Galaxy S6 sales from last year are estimated around 38 million units - and that's not a figure the firm was pleased with.
However, one thing that's very important to note is that in the US and some parts of Europe (which we expect will include the UK), Samsung will only be selling the 32GB storage model of the Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 edge. SamMobile reports that Samsung has confirmed that some European markets would not be receiving the 64GB model, but has now also confirmed that the US will not get it either. According to some reports it's alleged 32GB models have higher profit margins.

In terms of the software, of course we're looking at Android Marshmallow with a TouchWiz layer on top. The new TouchWiz is very similar to the current build rolling out the Galaxy S6 series devices, including the new enhancements to the Galaxy S6 edge display functionality; expanding the number edge display area, the number of apps and shortcuts that can be stored, and adding more tools and widgets. It's a bit more streamlined generally, but should be familiar to current Samsung users.
