Samsung Electronics Co.’s mobile chief has said sales of its new flagship smarphone Galaxy S7 will hover above those of its predecessor after hitting store shelves across the world next month.

After the advent of the Galaxy series, Samsung has been one of the top Android manufacturers to watch out for. “To make sure you get the most out of your new phone and Gear VR, Oculus is adding a content bundle featuring six made-for-VR games with an estimated $50 United States dollars value to all USA pre-orders”. So, if this is a feature that is a must-have for you, the LG G5 is an impeccable option.

The newly-opened “Samsung 837” digital playground gets its name from its location — it is situated at 837 Washington Street in Manhattan.

Up first, we have a first look and tour of the regular Galaxy S7. LG’s G5 and HP’s Elite X3 smartphones, both introduced at MWC, also have screen resolutions of 2560 x 1440 pixels.

Samsung’s 5.1-inch Galaxy S7 is slightly larger and heavier than the 4.7-inch iPhone 6s, but not much so. This mode will ensure that the user doesn’t need to turn the screen on every time a notification needs to be checked. Samsung claims that keeping the feature activated will only drain an additional 0.5 percent of battery per hour, which is very marginal. It’s not revolutionising it again this year, with the Samsung Galaxy S7 instead aiming to refine and ideal what the S6 started. The first consumer edition was released to work with the Samsung Galaxy S6, in fact, and it’s still going strong today. Both Samsung Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge have smaller 12MP snappers on the rear, down from last year’s 16MP.

Both phones are water resistant, which is really neat. But it lacks OIS, which combined with low aperture will give poor results in low light. You will also enjoy using the fingerprint scanner on these phones – it is alloy smoother than a year ago. If the encryption extends to the microSD card, then the card can not be used on other devices, which is restricting and defeats the goal of the card.

There’s a 3000 mAh battery in the Samsung Galaxy S7, which is a sizeable jump on the 2550 mAh one in the Samsung Galaxy S6.

Until more elaborate tests prove that these benchmarks aren’t accurate, the Xiaomi Mi5 seems to have taken the crown for the most powerful Android smartphone on the market, at least when it comes to performance in AnTuTu.
