Samsung on Sunday introduced two new models of its
flagship Galaxy smartphone line at the annual gala for the mobile
world, the Mobile World Conference in Barcelona, Spain.
Both phones have similar features, but one, the Galaxy S7 Edge, has a 5.5-inch display, the same size as the iPhone 6s Plus.
The units have curved screens that support quad HD resolution, as
well as a slight curve on the back, making them easier to hold.
To soothe complaints about the battery life of the previous Galaxy
generation, the units have received power boosts. The S7 Edge has a
3,600-mAh battery, a jump from the S6 Edge's 2,600, and the S7 has a
3,000-mAh power supply, while the S6's battery was only 2,550.
In addition, the units are water and dust resistant, support microSD storage, and run on Android 6.0 Marshmallow.
