Galaxy S7

Samsung’s new Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 edge have a front-facing flash feature that helps you shoot brighter selfies, but it doesn’t come from an extra LED. Instead, the new devices have stolen the same trick Apple uses on iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus.

Samsung has begun rolling out its latest Marshmallow software for the Galaxy S6 edge+, less than one week after it hit the Galaxy Note 5.

The upgrade packs almost identical changes and improvements — including features like Doze and Google Now on Tap — plus some nice enhancements for the edge display.

Remember Samsung’s clunky keyboard case for the Galaxy Note 5? Believe it or not, it’s still not dead yet. In fact, Samsung thought it was worthwhile to make another one for the new Galaxy S7 series, and you’ll be able to get yours in March.

The folks over at Display Mate tested the Super AMOLED displays on the Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 edge and have crowned it as the ‘Best Smartphone Display.’ This award was previously with the Galaxy Note 5 and the Galaxy S6 before that.

Samsung is under fire again from iPhone fans for its apparent lack of attention to detail when designing the new Galaxy S7 and S7 edge. Apparently, the fact that the ports don’t line up on the bottom of these devices automatically means they’re not as good as Apple’s.

But it’s total rubbish.
