The leaked information reveals that the Galaxy S7 will come with the company’s own Exynos 8890 SoC (system on chip), while the Galaxy S7 Edge will be having a Qualcomm . This device will likely be shown off for the first time during Mobile World Congress 2016 in Barcelona, at which time we’ll know exactly what Samsung is bringing to the table in terms of finalized specifications.
Interestingly, AnTuTu’s leak also points to the inclusion of an Exynos 8890 processor, which suggests that Samsung will flog both Snapdragon- and Exynos-powered variants of the device. No matter which model each region gets, though, these two chipsets are expected to push the limit, and you shouldn’t be disappointed with either one once Samsung delivers the full unveiling.
The latest report on this claims that Samsung is in the process of testing such a feature out for possible inclusion in the Galaxy S7. Only the Galaxy S7 Edge+ is expected to match the iPhone, delivering the same 5.5-inch screen found in the iPhone 6s Plus.
According to Phone Arena, Samsung may be looking into merging their high-end smartphone lines with their cheaper alternatives with the S7. In any case take it with a grain of salt since it is possible that the devices are prototypes, but with a rumored launch in February, we’d like to think Samsung might have locked everything down by now.
Will the microSD Slot Come Back? What will be more interesting is seeing how Samsung evolves the company’s new metal-and-glass design language.
Import data from India, called Zauba, picked up both the Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 Edge as they entered the country on a South Korea shipment. That should give customers plenty of options to choose from while still leaving room for a new Galaxy Note entry later in the year.
Considering that Samsung is one of the biggest cheerleaders for Android, one would think that the latest version of Android 6.0 (also known as Android M or Lollipop) would have arrived on its devices by now.
