Samsung Galaxy S7 32 GB

The 7th generation of Samsung's flagship smartphones has virtually no visual differences compared to its predecessor, the Samsung Galaxy S6. But the hardware and functionality give it a significant breakthrough forward.

Stylish design

The body of the smartphone is made of durable 3D glass, which shimmers beautifully in the light. The main difference from its predecessor lies in the presence of dust and water protection according to the IP68 standard — the phone can be immersed to a depth of 1.5 m for half an hour. At the same time, it pleases that there are no plugs on the case.

Big Pixels

The resolution of the main smartphone camera module is 12 MP and as of the beginning of 2016, it has practically no equal in terms of quality and detail of images. Samsung decided not to make a megapixel race and built a sensor with large physical pixels that can better absorb light. Paired with a maximum aperture of f/1.7 and DualPixel focus technology, focus is instantaneous even in poor lighting conditions. The front camera has a 5-megapixel resolution and a maximum aperture of f / 1.7, and is additionally equipped with a selfie flash.

"Iron"

The hardware of the smartphone is represented by a powerful Exynos 8890 processor (4 cores with a frequency of 2.3 GHz and 4 more with a frequency of 1.6 GHz) and 4 GB of RAM, only half of which is available to the user. There is also a second modification, the heart of which is the Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 processor . In the AnTuTu benchmark, the gadget gives a stunning result of more than 120K points — with such an assessment, you can not worry about launching any applications for another couple of years ahead. And in order for the smartphone not to warm up, it has a cooling system on heat pipes.

Energy efficiency

An interesting "feature" of the South Korean flagship is the ability to output to a locked clock display. Moreover, the SuperAMOLED-matrix, which is characterized by low power consumption, provides an average battery consumption of 1% per hour. The total battery capacity is 3000 mAh and paired with a QuadHD-resolution display, the smartphone can last 1-2 days on a single charge (depending on the intensity of use).

Slots

Perhaps the only drawback of the model is the need to choose between a slot for a microSD memory card (up to 200 GB) or a second SIM card. Given that the previous model did not support external drives at all, this drawback is not significant.

Reference. DualPixel technology allows you to use all 100% of the pixels of the photosensor for focus. To do this, each pixel has two photodiodes instead of one, which makes it possible to focus accurately and almost instantly.
