New Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge, more of the same

galaxy-s7

First of all I want to make it clear that I am a person who likes to try other smartphones, so I don't limit myself to the iPhone as the only device. When Samsung introduced the Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge, users were able to see how the Koreans were, finally on the right track. You cannot sell a mobile for 700 euros with plastic finishes.

The new Samsung Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 Edge, which the Koreans have just presented at the MWC that officially begins tomorrow in Barcelona, they have shown us a more refined device than their previous model, where the rear camera protrudes a little less, a micro-SD slot has been added, it is waterproof and a new camera has been released.

The new Galaxy S7 comes with Android 6.0 Marshmallow, with two quad-core processors at 2,15 GHz and 1,6 GHz. Both models are managed by the Eynos 8890 (manufactured by Samsung) with liquid cooling like the new Lumia 950 and 950 XL from Microsoft. The rear camera offers us 12 megapixels with Dual Pixel technology. The battery is 3.000 mAh with fast and induction charging.

The camera with Duel Pixel technology it is one of the few novelties that we find in the renewal of the Samsung S6 models. The Koreans have put aside the war to offer the highest number of pixels to offer exceptional quality with less resolution. Dual Pixel technology allows us to capture 1,4 um pixels that offers us a brightness of up to 95% higher. In addition, the new integrated sensor offers us an aperture of 1,7, so the photographs we take with less light will offer better results.

Samsung wanted to focus on giving the edge a real use How aesthetically correct it is on the Edge model, but that it is really useless. The Koreans offer with this new model specific software so that we can give it full use, but until our colleagues at Actualidad Gadget do a complete review we will not be able to offer more details about it.

Both models will hit the market on March 11. The S7 model will be available from 719 euros while the S7 Edge model will start at 819 euros. To try to motivate the sale of these new flagship models, Samsung says it will give away the Gear VR to all those who make the reservation of this device before going on sale.

In this article I am not trying to criticize Samsung, but I offer my point of view regarding the novelties that the brand has introduced in the logical renewal of the S6. While it is true that we found a new processor and a new camera, Samsung it hasn't featured any major features like Apple did at the launch of the iPhone 6s and 3D Touch technology, for instance. It is also true that, at times, Apple has launched new models with very little novelty compared to the previous model. It is clear that not every year you can innovate as users would like.

    I agree with you terrible article only in what it says to try to sell and the title of the note, so that they write about other brands if they are going to do it wrong, dedicate yourself to talking about Apple and that's it but since there is nothing new you have to talk Bad competition, what more do you want if nothing new has been invented, that the cell phone levitates to make you breakfast in the morning? He praised him that he did not put force touch on his screen, I imagine the comments

    It is correct to talk about the competition (if Samsung does not take Apple out of its mouth, why can't those who love Apple talk about them?) Well, it is certainly the first time that I see on a Samsung mobile that it presents more of the same (hey, as I remember how many times Apple complained that it is always the same and the same. Sooner a talker falls ...) it must be said and recognized that an excellent team like the s6 needed a lot to improve in its own house, certainly it has been, in my opinion this "s7" is nothing more than an "improved" version of the s6 without anything really interesting. They did not want to risk and I think they will rather wait to see what they can get out of the iPhone 7 to give themselves ideas. In truth I am still immensely happy with my 6s and waiting for the 7 which I am sure will repeat in breaking sales records.

      Of the few useful comments here, I agree, look at how those who said that more megapixels were better are silent now, because it was done by Samsung and 300 more companies, now they reduce the megapixels and not a peep ... With all that they criticized Apple Obviously there is a limit, 5 mpx is not the same as 12mpx, but it is not the main feature of a camera, far from it.
      There are things that the s6 has simply to sell, believing itself innovative or revolutionary but it does not contribute anything innovative, they have simply put it in to make the list of new things longer and thus sell more, something that Apple does not do, tell me which mobile needs refrigeration Please settle, that if it has merit to put a hi system, but if Apple has not done it or anyone else, it does not mean that it is innovative, but because it does not provide any functionality or benefit, it simply was not necessary, a mobile is not a PC gaming or anything of the kind, and with the efficiency that the latest processors achieve, they get less and less hot every time, this is something that I already tell you they will remove in a few years because liquid cooling does absolutely nothing.
      Wireless charging does not give us much either if we have to keep leaving the mobile in a fixed place to charge, this is Samsung, Apple has a very different thought and every day I am happy about it, I still think that the iPhone 7 will be a break records, and it will be the best mobile of the year. Next year we will see a new design of the galaxy copied from the iphone.

        This is my dear, believe me, I am one of those who always accept the good that Samsung brings out and reproach my iPhone everywhere (fast charging, the double Edge on the screen ... Mm the double Edge and .. Ah the double Edge too , haha ​​I think it was the only thing that I liked, everything else has been cynically copied from all brands) certainly the wireless charging seems to me still and will continue to be dispensable for connecting it unless the charge is without posing it in some place. The camera issue, yes, now will they agree with Apple? Obviously not, all those obsessed with megapixels will finally understand that this number does not matter here (who was deceived?), I think that here the only thing that keeps me uneasy about Apple is that they have not really updated the display, that retina In my opinion it needs a push of 4K because it is not possible that the 4K force has to be viewed in my house with the screen when it could be much better to view it correctly from recording. Everything else the iPhone is still superior.

    I still think the same, Samsung did not want to risk and acted very shy, it could have done better. Anyway, I am from the Note Range, I will hope that the Note 5 brings us.

    Actualidadiphone ? Or current android? I'm confused

    As they say around here: "For tastes, colors."

    I agree but, hence, to dedicate a complete article to a competitor terminal, it seems to me that it does not give

    If Samsung does not take Apple out of its mouth, it will be for something (envy and obsession at the same time). That they and many of their users stoop to trolling in this way does not mean that we also do it for retaliation.
    I'm not stupid to fall low like them, simple.

    1.    Anonimous said

      An article, a tweet, the same thing is, this news deserves a space here because of what was said in a conference that I put before, I think we do not trolle, but rather be informed of the competition, and analyze their movements

    2.    Cesar Adrian said

      I think your comment is wrong, I don't think any of us are trolling him. I don't know if you know what “trolling” means, here from the article Per se to the comments I have only seen opinions, very different from a troll, which is nothing more than mockery. Get down? I am a faithful follower of Apple, but I also respect the Koreans, there is nothing low that brand. Really friend you have a wrong perception of everything. Greetings and read again from a to z all comments

    What is not submersible? You have no idea what an ip68 is poor apple fanboy

    1.    pacoflo said

      Ignacio Sala has sneaked in there,
      The ip68 protection not only allows full impersion to a certain depth but can be more than half an hour below.
      It is currently the highest protection on the market.
      A bit of rigor please.

    Everyone who thinks about a competitor's terminal is great !!!, It seems that they have shares in Apple, for me it is good that they do this type of analysis I am always in favor of companies putting the batteries to get better equipment, finally that those who win are the consumers, what is necessary is that their prices are lowered because they are currently prohibitive and exaggerated.

  8.   June 7633 said

    Of course it is submersible.
    Micro SD, metal and glass design, water resistance, improved camera of the best of 2015, performance, 1000 milliamps more, side frames reduced by half still being water and more ergonomics due to the curved glass behind, what more do you want? It is the perfect phone you can take it wherever you want and the battery will last much longer apart from resisting water.

    1.    pacoflo said

      How many times have you repeated the water resistance thing? It is not only that, it is submersible with that certification.

      1.    June 7633 said

        I repeat it because it is the only brand that has not sacrificed the design or the frames to put IP68

  9.   Antonio said

    Ignacio Sala ...
    more of the same?
    Well, look at the iPhone for so long almost the same models with the same specifications, only the most drastic change was the inches of screen and that of people who complained for so many years ... but the fanboy can do more!
    You could also say the same about HTC Sony etc ... but not just Samsung ... of course ajajjaajjaja
    when you criticize for something it will be ... look at it!

    First of all ... GO LACK OF RESPECT for the page, the editors and users ...

    The second thing ... I have to admit that Samsung is doing a good job but liquid cooling ... Was it necessary? I've always been with Apple but I don't know ... it's always the same for me ...

    Some say that the iPhone needs 4K but you know what that sucks BY GOD, which is like a Porche Panamera in Madrid at 19:00 p.m. It is a black hole please ... that's why Samsung puts more battery, more ram, more processor for move all those bright colors ... an iPhone with a retina is just right ... I want a 4K mobile to last me 6 hours ... For that I have a 4K Samsung TV and I look at it there .... the camera I see it well from the Samsung s7 they have finally recognized it !!

    Honestly, the s7 is aesthetically beautiful… the news is painful compared to the s6….

    To taste the colors ... but I will continue my iPhone 6 until they release the 7

    That if A LITTLE RESPECT THAT DOES NOT COST ANYTHING !!

    1.    June 7633 said

      You do not need 4k but if 1080 or 2k, the iPhone with its resolution does not last the battery much longer than any other in the same range, Samsung has known how to use a screen with twice the resolution of the iPhone and the battery lasts the same or more . Not to mention, the Galaxy has more features and offers more on the iPhone.

      1.    Rafael Pazos placeholder image said

        I have many friends who have the Samsung galaxy s6 and s6 edge and they say that the battery lasts at most 12 hours in normal use, with my iPhone I perfectly reach 10-12 hours of use ...

        And note that my friends are Samsung fans and they recognize that we need to put a 2K or 4K mobile on because you can't see it with the naked eye ... just a little more brightness and color ... but as I say, that's what televisions are for ...

        What surprises me is that the iPhone 6s with less battery lasts the same as the iPhone 6 there, I don't know why it will be but Apple has done a good job ...

        Every taste the colors but it is not necessary to put it the only thing that is fashion… BUAAAH I have a 4K mobile… .. And?

        The fact that it has more options is true but because of the operating system not because of the mobile (the curved screen on the edge let's be honest, it's cool but it's bullshit ... the colors are nice when they call you ... but does that have another use? Like the 3D Touch, is there any use? ... it's very green ... but hey.

        The big screens… I don't know for me it is already amazing to handle an iPhone 6 Plus… imagine a 6 ″….

        The respect I say for the insults not for the product ... hahahahaha.

        But come on I recognize that they have made a good Mobile ... the good thing I have is that I have accepted both platforms (I am both iOS, android, windowsphone and ubuntuphone), also computers, Linux (ubuntu, red hat, symbian), OS X, Windows !

        And I have appreciated both the advantages and disadvantages, but for me iOS and OS X are the best to work, Windows to play and Linux to develop and servers.

        So a greeting and a hug!

    Rafael…. The iphone puts 4K resolution and you can go buying an external battery because the mobile does not last 4 hours!
    It is already with the resolution that it has and see how long the battery lasts!
    then another thing, people do not want anything that Sony Htc or Samsung has, to say a few ,,,, but when Apple includes them, you freak out about it even brag about it like the child that his father buys many gifts for him….
    all god criticizing the screen sizes of thousands of terminals ... and when apple enlarges its screens and sizes and all with their tongues in the ass? buahhh !!
    They are not a matter of respect, more I would say of ethics….
