Galaxy S7 Edge Release Date

Judging by the release dates of Samsung Galaxy S3, S4, S5, S6 and S6 Edge in the months of May and April each year, the all new Samsung Galaxy S7 is probably going to be released around April or May of 2016. Of course we can’t really say anything with conviction until the company makes an official announcement, but the truest indication of when we will get to see the Galaxy S7 comes from the company’s previous releases. It is also worth noting, that the announcement of release may as well be made during the MWC 2016 event which is scheduled for Feb 22 – 25. And if that happens then the release will be of the Galaxy S7 Edge will be hauled forward and you’ll find them on shelves in February.

Galaxy S7 Edge Features

There will be a total of three sizes and four models. Reports are that the latest smartphones of Samsung will come in two different processor options, which are the Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 chipset and Samsung’s very own Exynos 8890 SoC. Based on rumoured reports the Samsung Galaxy S7 lines also feature a QHD and Super AMOLED displays, a new Samsung Britecell 12-megapixel camera, a generous 4GB of RAM,   a microSD card slot (which was not present in Galaxy S6), a bigger battery, and perhaps even waterproofing. Very close to the Galaxy S6’s dimensions, the all new S7’s dimension is likely to be 143.37 x 70.8 x 6.94mm. When it comes to the magnificent cameras, S7 probably won’t be too different from S7. It is going to have 16-megapixel shooter enhanced by autofocus, optical image stabilisation, and an LED flash.
