Samsung Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge pre-booking starts today

by

After revealing them at the MWC 16 last month, Samsung has begun the pre-booking of its flagship devices: the S7 and S7 Edge in India today.

Physically, the devices have gotten various tweaks and improvements over the previous S6 series. The metal and 3D glass body have a slimmer profile, eliminating the  camera hump of the S6, which had come under criticism. The camera features Dual Pixel technology that lets users take quality images in low-light conditions.

The ‘always on’ display shows time, date and incoming notifications on a dimmed display. While the smartphones are dual-SIM, the hybrid SIM card slot also doubles as a microSD card slot for users wanting to expand the phone memory.

Pre-ordering until 17 March 2016 will net the user a free GearVR bundle.

Available in 3 variants, Black Onyx, Gold Platinum and Silver Titanium, the S7 will be sold for Rs 48,900 (32GB) and the S7 Edge for Rs 56,900 (32GB) from 18 March 2016.

The commercial shows an Indonesian sportsperson training while using the S7. From the video, it seems that the smartphone is waterproof and a wireless charging pod was used. Rumours suggest the return of the microSD slot.

International preorders will be receiving the VR headset for free.

The phone will be available in atleast 3 colour options – silver, black and gold. The official unveiling will occour at the Mobile World Congress on 21 February.

Leaked pic provides a glimpse of the Samsung Galaxy S7

The first leaked image for the Samsung Galaxy S7 isn’t much but provides interesting information about it. The rear picture shows off a slimmer curved profile expected to house a bigger battery and a smaller camera bump in comparison to the older model. This might hint at a lower megapixel count for the camera but would be offset by an improved sensor.

Other rumours suggest a magnesium body, water resistance and the return of a microSD slot.

Expect to see even more leaks the closer we get to the Mobile World Congress 2016.
