Samsung once again fails to measure up to the design of the Galaxy S7

design-galaxy-s7

Already last year the great specialists of design and technology cried out to heaven about the design of the Samsung Galaxy S6. The debate turned on the networks about the industrial design that Samsung uses with its flagship, and that is Some basic principles of design in this area are fully embraced by the South Korean company. It is true that these details are often not excessively important, not even at first glance, when we are faced with a fairly well-built device, with a beautiful design and excellent materials.

We mark the red lines I personally am not going to criticize the build quality of the Samsung Galaxy S7, It seems to me that it is a device that does not deserve it, the plastic materials and its low durability were left behind with the Samsung Galaxy S5, they knew how to put the batteries in their last two models and have done it again. We are not at all going to discuss the rough design of both, the Samsung Galaxy s7 is a beautiful device, so the general public has decided, in fact it is a top-of-the-range Android device, despite the questions Tastes are totally subjective, everyone has and will have their preferences.

What is wrong with the industrial design of the Samsung Galaxy S7?

Harmony, linearity and perfectionism have always been part of Apple's designs, it is easily noticeable for example in the iPhone 6, where we find that the epicenter of the three circles that make up the rear (camera, audio sensor and flash) coincide in the epicenter in the same line. Another example is the huge front bezels of the iPhone 6, for example, although the upper one could be smaller, it is exactly as large as the lower one with the intention of creating a linear and harmonious vision. Also the lower perforations are located exactly the same way.

This small detail is that it makes us think that something strange happens when we see a Samsung Galaxy S7 from the side or pay attention to its connections. We look and observe a more than evident dissonance between the interior and exterior design, as if they had been held in two different Samsung offices, each one on one end of the planet. These holes are in no way aligned, they have been made depending on where the components were located, without the smallest detail to the most basic principles of design in this area.

A taste of the real work behind a device

This is a hallmark that makes us think about how they carry out the design work of these devices, this error is not only inexcusable in a device with the price and the well-known quality of the Samsung Galaxy S7, andThe real problem is that Samsung already ran into this stone last year and seems to have completely ignored the stir caused among many other things. It is as if they had to remove it, whatever came out, because whoever thinks that the Samsung Galaxy S7 is not very innovative compared to the previous one, is wrong. It is a strongly updated device in terms of hardware and that has been kept abreast of all the latest technology news available.

These types of details can go unnoticed by those who do not pay attention to them, however, it gives us good faith of how seriously each company takes its devices in all areas, because the design, whether we like it or not it is part of what we buy, it is an addition and an incentive. While it is true that carrying out this task is extremely difficult, I do not want to imagine the industrial design department discussing how to fit the hardware in a totally harmonious way in that beautiful outer box, it is not easy, but it is what is expected of a device of this quality.

    Well, Ignacio Sala did not think the same a moment ago.

      Hi Pacoflo.

      My great colleague Ignacio Sala has his own opinion, and I have mine.

      Kind regards.

    The truth is that they have made it easy for the iPhone 7 because it does not have any Samsung news, and if Apple will do all the fire on the iPhone 7 it would devastate in an incredible way everything depends on what Apple does because its bump was the 6s like Now it is the Samsung s7 without any good news and if Apple threw all its firewood on the iPhone 7 it ruins Samsung everything depends on what Apple burned, but the rumors point very well for the iPhone 7 with real wireless charging and many news if so He really ruins Samsung with his s7

    Man ... If you want them to do it the same as the one in  and incidentally put the home round and the camera in the same place as the iPhone and already an is6 or is7, of course they have been tracing many things from iPhone «marketing» to see if one day they will achieve the sales of the iPhone .. It is better that they innovate in design and stop copying or making advertisements criticizing apple, the only thing that implies .. It is envy of its products, perhaps apple Do you make ads criticizing your galaxies?

    What a bunch of morons and what an idiotic report… they are so obsessed with their phone that they look for such silly loopholes and they cannot see that in several aspects this phone is superior that added to android forms a good coexistence….
    every time I read these reports I can't not imagine someone being foolish and consumed by a brand ...

      But what a stupid and coarse comment, boy ... you just have to see the latest iPhone finish (radical aesthetic change resembling galaxy like they had never done before) ... it's so obvious ... how you're still anchored to an iPhone 4 ....
      Penaca of people.

    Roughly, not "roughly" ... if we use Latin conjunctions, what less than knowing how to use them.

    What a string of bullshit. There is no more blind than the one who does not want to see. You are haunted by the manzanita. He sells you a mobile with features from two years ago at a price of gold. A totally closed and obsolete, outdated and old OS. And the only thing you can think of to fool yourself is to say that the holes are not symmetrical. LOL. How bad is envy.

      Poor android users, what a envy hahaha

        I feel sorry for how the fanboys of both companies are thrown to kill, as if that would make Apple or Samsung better brands. I can only comment that both are actually very good devices, each with its own pros and cons; in that case it all depends on the user's needs, but anyway, keep making me laugh

        Samsung is better than Apple (burned to me)

    I had never read such a stupid article in my life ... and part of the subsequent comments leave me stunned.
    It seems that the "iso" geeks need to find fault at all costs of the horrifying and fascinating evolution of the galaxy. I love Apple, xq? ... easy its operating system is the best. But I keep galaxy, why? Xq are the fucking eighth wonder of the world. Both in aesthetics and interior. As soon as they "recreate" their own operating system, iPhone will disappear from the face of the earth ...

    I have the s6 and the iphone 6 plus. And they are not comparable because each one is good at some things and fails at others. Apple's system is great because it doesn't fail. But it won't let you do na de na. Regarding the design, my hands, even though they are large, the edges of the iPhone 6 plus are so thin and the shape is so rounded that when you pick it up it is super uncomfortable without a cover, it's like picking up something that sticks to you, it is not pleasant to the touch to pick it up. Then as for the fingerprint sensor and such is better than the Samsung. Regarding the sound they are very similar. The screens, if you put them both together, it is clear that one makes the whites white (apple) and the Samsung one makes the black ones, there is a lot of difference in the image from one to the other, it is neither better nor worse, they are different. For "work" I prefer the apple because it does not get caught and does what it has to do without disturbing and lasts a long time on the battery. The Samsung is more fun, I'm not talking about games, but customization, testing applications and such ... is another roll. And then the Samsung is sad that they come out and are very expensive but then they do not cost anything. The apple maintains the best value. Then it is also worth noting that the Apple technical service is the best, you take the phone for anything and they change it for another "new position". With Samsung at least with the s4 and s5 that I had na more than those of the technical service they put problems to me and they fixed it badly. With the s5 I had a lot of problems because the speaker broke and such ... the apple the problem I have had is that it has bent and then sometimes applications have been updated and they have not gone, but being a closed system in a few hours apple already I corrected with another ... it is to taste colors. Personally, if I could, I would buy the s7 edge plus because I like it a lot. And now finishing the failure that I see both of them is that they do not bring stereo sound, it seems to me that it is about time that they put a good sound system in their mobiles.

    What a bullshit article. And give it to compare the iPhone with Samsung. A worthless comparison. It is like comparing a car with a motorboat. There is what is called the ios public and the android public, regardless of the thing that mounts it. Stop making these stupid comparisons. If iphone ran with Android or Samsung ios then another rooster would sing.
