WHAT IS THE SAMSUNG GALAXY S7 ?
If you’re on the hunt for an Android phone right now, the Samsung Galaxy S7 should be very close to the top of your list. Even though the competition from the HTC 10,LG G5 and the upcoming Note 6 (or Note 7) is strong, the S7 is the Korean company’s best phone yet.
The biggest threat comes from the OnePlus 3, which offers similar specs to the Galaxy S7 but for a much lower price. Still, the extra quality is here to see and it really shows.
If you want the best screen, best camera and one of the comfiest phones I have ever held
then Samsung’s latest flagship is the perfect choice.

SAMSUNG GALAXY S7 – DESIGN
After the massive, and much needed, change in design direction Samsung took with the Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 Edge in 2015, all rumours pointed to things staying pretty much the same for the Galaxy S7.
Well, it’s not like Apple, HTC or Sony make drastic changes to their industrial design every year.
And that’s exactly the case here. Place the Galaxy S7 next to the S6 and you’d be hard pushed to instantly pick which one is which. Frankly, this doesn’t bother me in the slightest. The S6 was already one of the best-looking phones around, and the Galaxy S7 follows suit
Both the front and back are covered in Gorilla Glass 4, while a metal rim snakes in between. Two volume buttons sit on one side, with a lock/standby switch on the other. It’s a clean look, with the back free from any markings aside from a Samsung logo.
The camera lens now sits just about flush with the glass body too. This might seem a small change, but it makes a big difference. I can now tap out an email with the phone flat on my desk without it jumping and rocking from side to side.
