Review of Samsung Galaxy S7 – BBC

Design and Ergonomics

Samsung, apparently, decided to borrow a Sony model release devices. Immediately distinguish Galaxy S6 S7′s almost impossible, but much was hidden in the details that went only benefit.

The front glass Corning Gorilla Glass 4 now has a fashionable now rounding on all sides, making the smartphone a pleasure to use. Also, the front transforms physical button with fingerprint. She lost her glossy frame

The back of the smartphone and slightly changed. Such toughened glass is bent at the edges of the housing Galaxy Note 5. Especially manner Samsung proud thickness reduction chamber, whereby it is substantially protrudes from the housing, despite the fact that many have resigned themselves to this drawback. The other elements remain intact, except for a slot for SIM-card – it remains a place for a memory card

The company has also refused to odd colors.. The line now there is no blue or turquoise smartphone. . Only the classic black, steel, white and gold

Glass body very easily soiled: just a couple of minutes to use a smartphone, it is completely covered with traces

.

Many resent the introduction of micro-USB-port on your smartphone instead of Type-C. However, in recent years almost every got a whole bundle of micro-USB, so do not have to rack their brains over where to find the necessary cable. Ubiquitous transition to Type-C has not started yet, so the decision to introduce a “legacy” format is quite clear.

Thanks to the more rounded corners and sloping glazing phone perfectly in the hand. To build quality no complaints, all joints fit perfectly. The smartphone is assembled in such a way that no detail cuts in hand and sticks.



Display and specifications

The display at S7 is almost not changed. This is still a Super AMOLED-matrix with a resolution Quad HD and a diagonal of 5.1 inches. But if in the case of the screen S6 was too “warm”, the S7 is not similar sins.

Samsung has long been making great displays that do not have such a “vyrviglaznyh” colors. Producers were able to achieve the picture is much richer iPhone with IPS, but were able to strike a balance. Nor did he poured green and purple flowers at an angle, as is the case in other smartphones with similar screens.

Due to the matrix properties in the S7 has a function Always On Display, which reflects on lock screen the current time and notifications.

The function was useful and practically does not consume battery power. However, the image on the screen a dynamic, constantly distracted on that account

the smartphone has the most top-end at the moment the filling, which allows him to “knock out” record results among Android-smartphone (iPhone overtake it until he could). Also quad Snapdragon 820 smartphone comes with its own eight-processor Exynos 8890 companies.

Apart from the fact that the processor is gaining a lot of points in the synthetic benchmarks, it is practically not heated under heavy braking and energy efficiency of the same Snapdragon 820. To speed can not complain, it works quickly and without lag. But the claim is to fingerprint, which seems to have migrated from the previous generation of smartphones. It is impossible to work slowly on the background of the iron to the same works often times from the fifth or sixth.

The amount of the battery is 3000 mAh, which, along with energy-efficient hardware provides about one day of the smartphone. Perhaps someone smartftona time can not be arranged, but in this case provides a truly rapid charging. From 0 to 100% S7 charged in 1.5-2 hours.



Operating System

Samsung Galaxy S7 works out of the box on Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow preloaded with proprietary shell TouchWiz. It should immediately be said that over the past few years, the firmware is very much changed and lost the “children’s sores”, which complained about almost everyone who used “naked» Android.

The primarily firmware rid of the abundance of pre-installed software. The phone comes with Samsung’s applications, but they became much smaller. She also became more strict look and get rid of colorful

At the moment, TouchWiz -. One of the most convenient and pleasant to use firmware to Android. We are talking about a fully converted appearance, and not Sony and Motorola solutions. It is worth noting a standard keyboard, which looks like one to one on iOS keyboard, but wins in terms of convenience.

But the idea of ​​a dual view of work on a smartphone with a diagonal of 5.1 inches is not very clear. The ability to run, for example, a text editor and a browser on one screen looks really interesting that in words. In fact, work in two windows simultaneously on a small device, absolutely uncomfortable.



Camera

The main camera diminished in resolution and has a 12-megapixel module Sony IMX260. The lens aperture is increased to f / 1.7, and the pixel size – to 1.4 microns. This allows Matrix to capture more light.

The camera shoots great in daylight, but in the room when taking pictures in auto mode, acquire a yellowish tint. At dusk and night shots also come some good.

However, we must admit that the camera almost all the current champions have excellent sensors and a software component that allows all of them to easily make high-quality images .

The front camera has a resolution of 5 megapixels. About her we can only say that it has a wide viewing angle and allows you to place objects in the frame longer. The application chamber is present a large number of lotions for the “improvement” of the person, and, surprisingly, in their application, it does not look like plasticine.



Result

When the output of each of the new smartphone Samsung regularly repeat the correction of errors of the past generation. In the case of S7 company really tried to avoid it. Almost all of the abuse that TouchWiz and Soup Company, was taken into account and corrected in the new device

iron and pull up the camera -. Already self-evident things for champions. Much more interesting is something else that has more to do with the consumer experience, it is well to shoot and quickly work can almost many smartphones on the market, regardless of whether they are 50 thousand. Rub. . Or less

In this regard, S7 was able to please a number of features: an improved display, water resistance, memory card slot and of course, nice to use the TouchWiz. From the next generation worth the wait unless further time work and an acceptable fingerprint.
