Here it comes: Samsung Galaxy S7

It came with no surprise after a few months of being leaked that the Samsung Galaxy S7 will be released on the first quarter of 2016. There were a few leaks here and there about the external design, including the specs on this phone. Now, the long wait is finally over! Samsung, the Korean giant has announced it on Feb 21 that the phone would be released on March 11. The news became a huge buzz among techies around the world. Samsung galaxy S7 series will come in two variants, the S7 Edge and the normal one.

We really didn't have any clue as to where the specs that were rumored are precise, but we crossed our fingers that it will have an SD card and a removable battery. Since it will be the most recent flagship phone from Samsung, we expect it to make a huge impact over other Samsung devices. We also expect it to have a little more kick on it.

Oh how we miss the SD card expansion slot and the removable battery. SD cards are great since it provides additional option to increase the phone's storage capacity. Having a 16-32gb storage doesn't mean a lot nowadays if you're a heavy file user.

Again the battery. Most flagship phones from other companies adopted the trend of non-removable batteries. Some say that non-removable batteries are a lot better since they're intact on the phone and losses less power than removable once. But practically, its really nice to have a removable one since its just so easy to swap in case your phone runs out of battery, rather than finding an outlet to charge the phone in case you miss bringing a power bank

The S7 specs are quite amazing. The S7 edge and the regular S7 has slight differences but the core and other internal specs are the same.

Samsung galaxy S7 Edge specs:

• 5.5" disp'ay Quad HD super Amoled
• Android 6.0 marshmallow
• Processor: Qualcomm MSM8996 Snapdragon 820 Exynos 8890 Octa
• Supports up to 200gb SD storage
• RAM 4gb
• 3,600mah non -removable battery
• 12mp camera
• Fingerprint, accelerometer, gyro, proximity, compass, barometer, heart rate, SpO2 including IP67 water protection. 

Samsung Galaxy S7 specs:

• 5.1" Super Amoled display Quad HD
• Android 6.0 marshmallow
• Processor: Qualcomm MSM8996 Snapdragon 820 Exynos 8890 Octa
• Supports up to 200gb SD storage
• RAM 4gb
• 3,000mah non-removable battery
• 12mp camera
• Fingerprint, accelerometer, gyro, proximity, compass, barometer, heart rate, SpO2 including IP67 water protection. 

Both models will have a new TouchWiz skin, and almost both models have the same specs (only the screen and battery differs). The camera of the phone is only 12mp  but it has aperture f/1.7, 26mm, phase detection autofocus, OIS, LED flash, which means to say that it is still a powerful camera even if it has low MP. Together with its OIS, the camera captures great images since it captures more light using its double lens setup even in low light environments.

This phone also has pressure sensitive display like the "3d touch" iphone has. It also has fast charging through wireless battery charging method. It can have 86% battery in just 30 minutes of charging. That's pretty fast way to charge a 3000mah battery. Hopefully the battery will last for more than a day or two since most phones right now really has insufficient battery power.

Hopefully we could get our hands on one to fully review its features. This phone could set the standards of future phone flagships from other companies.
