The next generation of Samsung’s flagship Galaxy smartphones will arrive in stores on March 11, with pre-orders for the device opening last week.
At the premium end of the market the Galaxy S7 and S7 edge are both priced over $1100, however Samsung is bringing some must have features to the devices.
For starters IP68 water and dust resistance (usually found in phones destined for rugged conditions), additional MicroSD storage capacity, a more powerful processor and bigger battery capacity plus a camera capable of taking better photos in dark conditions.
The Galaxy S7 and S7 edge are also compatible with Samsungs Virtual reality headset and camera.
