MicroSD Slot May Make A Comeback On The Galaxy S7
But notorious leaker Evan Blass tweets that the Samsung Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge are being tested at AT&T, indicating the smartphones may get an early launch in December or January. It is expected that the new flagship line will be announced in Barcelona at the sidelines of the Mobile World Congress.
Despite its diminutive size, the microSD slot is one of the most controversial smartphone components.
The Samsung Galaxy S5 came with either 16GB or 32GB of internal storage with microSD support up to 128GB. You win some you lose some I guess. There has been already reports since October that the update will come to the device in December but readers were noted to take it with a pinch of salt since the news was not confirmed by the South Korean giant. We also have a release date for the Galaxy S7 firmware which is interesting. Then the Galaxy S6 swapped expandable memory for a slim metal design, and the company kept that trend going with the Galaxy Note 5. But apparently, Samsung has been working on a way to continue using UFS 2.0 storage but adding support for additional storage.
Android Authority described Samsung W2016 as “basically the Galaxy S6 in the body of a flip phone”. The retailers that are slapping great prices on deals include Best Buy, eBay, Costco, GameStop, Target, and many others. Rumors make this specific, suggesting it will be by February. Again, these are just rumors. Packed with features like a 5.7-inch full HD display; 1.8GHz Exynos 5430 octa-core processor with 2 GB of RAM and a 3050 mAH battery, the phone is everything that you desire, reports First Post. While Apple has done this with its iPhones this would be a change for Samsung to offer two sizes.
However, the S7 is rumored to feature a top and bottom curved screen, as well as the aforementioned expandable storage option.
With that of course we are talking about folks who simply want a device with the most basic features like calls, text and perhaps browsing among others with the cameras and the rest coming in secondary.
