Samsung Galaxy S7 is the new flagship smartphone from Samsung. It was unveiled at the Mobile World Congress in February 2016 and offers improvements over older models across the board in terms of speed, battery life, design, durability and camera performance. Critics think that this is one of the best Android phones ever produced. Samsung's aims with the S7 are obvious. It needs to revive relative poor Galaxy S6 sales and to successfully compete with the iPhone 6S and future iPhone models.
The Galaxy S7 design features a curved glass back, which means that holding it feels comfortably. Moreover, the height of the protruding camera lens on the back has been reduced to less than 0.5 mm so the surface becomes flatter.
The technical specs are impressive as one has come to expect of Galaxy phones. The S7 is powered by a blazing fast 2.15 GHz quad-cord Snapdragon processor improving processing speeds by 30% and graphics performance by an astounding 64% compared to Galaxy S6. Speed isn't the only thing that counts from a user perspective if the RAM memory isn't sufficient. Prospective S7 buyers need not to worry, since the phone comes with 4GB of LPDDR4 RAM. There's also 32 GB of storage available.
The camera has f1.7 aperture and captures 25% more light than the S6 model. The 1.4 micron pixels offers improved brightness and clarity. The auto-focus has also undergone substantial enhancements by adopting dual photodiode pixel auto-focus, a technology used by DSLR cameras that means significantly faster auto-focus. In non-technical jargon: S7's camera snaps higher quality photos faster.
Galaxy S7 runs on the latest Android Marshmallow 6.0.1 operating system, which means that it can take advantage of latest app features that developers around the globe are working on.
Samsung has demonstrated that it listens to its users and have brought back some popular features that the S6 models had dropped. Waterproofing and support for microSD card are features that appeal to Samsung users and both have been reintroduced with the S7 model.
The battery charging is fast and 50% charging is accomplished in only 30 minutes (wired charging). A new feature is the always-on display. Basic information like time, calendar and notifications are displayed in a power-saving mode. Hence, gleaning at the phone to check the time doesn't require a fully-illuminated screen.
Manufacturer: Samsung
I bought the phone to use on Sprint. In the description it dosent mention Sprint. After researching i foun conflicting data. The associate said he couldn't be sure but no one ever returned the phone for that reason. It does work on sprintand other networks perfectly
"The S7 is a highly featured phone which is a dream to use. It was a breeze with the Samsung Smart Switch to transfer contacts and files from my old phone. It fits well and feels snug in the hand as well as the trouser pocket. The screen display is stunning and simple to customise.
Brilliant Screen; Easy to use
I had a Galaxy S-7 that quit working. It dropped calls, it took a long time to redial or wouldn't redial at all. I called Asurion to ask for it to be replaced, under warranty. It took four (4) replacements (3 S-7s and 1 S8) to get One Samsung Galaxy S-8 to work.
Bright display
Poor quality; Did not meet expectations
Screen and phone size is a good balance; Good camera; Visibility settings for keyboard very helpful
Predictive text is not as good as my old Samsung and I can't find any settings for this
I am very happy with the Samsung Galaxy S7 purchased few weeks ago, it looks great, easy to use and has an excellent camera, battery is pretty good. This is a replacement for my old Galaxy S5, they have the same size, which I like instead than a bigger one, it fits well in the hand.
Aesthetically looks lovely, the pinks subtle, classy and girly. Good clear screen picture, graphics are great. Back camera is wonderful during the day, not so great during low light situations. Front facing camera is lovely for a good selfie haha.
Had the s5 and lost it got the s7great phone screen is very bright and clear .The camera is really good I think my DSLR camera has been made redundant,the only other thing I would say is if you an afford the s8 or s9 go for them .But this phone is good.
Faster charging than the one replacing. It was first gen running android 5.1 phone. Quick update of apps even large ones. Pin to get one draw out for as card and sin.
I bought my first S7 a year ago, it lasted 4 weeks. I got a replacement and had consistent issues. Sometimes it just wont turn on for 24hrs or so even though its at 100% battery, on charge, connected to PC, you name it I tried it.
I've owned this phone for almost 3 years now, and it works as if I bought it yesterday. I will be purchasing a new phone, but I'll be giving this one to my son. It's fast, Extremely dependable, Never given me a problem.
