With that in mind, here’s our full hands-on.

Samsung fans who will be among the first to preorder the Galaxy S7 or the Galaxy S7 edge will also receive a Gear VR headset bundled with six games, for no additional charge.
Advance orders for the S7 phones started this week.
Always-on display: Both devices have them, and LG wasn’t afraid to point it out.
Screen & Mainstage: A stadium-seating theater fronted by what may be the world’s largest multimedia display, comprised of 96 55-inch panels.
Samsung has equipped the Galaxy S7 with a massive 3,000 mAh battery in comparison to the meagre 1,715 mAh battery included in the iPhone 6s.
While Samsung doesn’t recommend dunking your S7 then popping in the microUSB cable immediately thereafter, a quick shake / blow on the port should have you covered.
With Galaxy S7, Samsung introduced the first Dual Pixel camera on a smartphone which delivers “brighter and sharper images even in low light”.
The 5.1-inch Galaxy S7 and 5.5-inch Galaxy S7 edge are constructed with 3D glass and metal and are water and dust resistance. In case of extended gaming sessions, the S7 and S7 Edge come with a power-saving mode for gaming feature which helps keep the frame rates controlled in a bid to save more power. The company hasn’t confirmed which we’ll get in the United Kingdom, but the Snapdragon 820 is the more likely option. Samsung says for two reasons. It means that apps can be stored and accessed via microSD storage. You also can’t remove the SD and place it in another device, which Samsung claims people commonly do.
“A big part of what’s enabling video to become so huge now is because of the improvements over time of the mobile networks to be able to stream faster and better quality videos”. That’s a much harder sale to make. The LG G5 can do some very cool stuff. So perhaps Samsung has finally fixed its aggressive memory management.
This is a trick that you may not find in any other smartphone, this year.
Yesterday, we sat back and watched as Samsung unveiled its new flagships, the Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 Edge.

Koh also said the introduction of a virtual reality camera will speed up production of user-made content in the industry. It has a standard screw mount on the bottom of the ball, and comes with a mini-tripod in the box. However, if you are a heavy user and never want to run out of battery juice, you can simply swipe out the battery for a fully recharged one in a few seconds. Samsung is partnering with its neighbours in the Meatpacking District, such as the Whitney Museum of American Art, as well as, artists, scientists, thought leaders and others, to create compelling programming.
