**** The Official Samsung Galaxy S7/Edge Thread ****

Interesting to see they stuck with 5.1" on the regular S7 as the A5 2016 model has a 5.2"
I know its next to nothing but a small bump won't have hurt

Specs

According to our source, the Samsung Galaxy S7 is to come with Android 6.0 Marshmallow out of the box. Other specs include an IP68 (or IP67) rating, a 12 MP camera, a 2800 mAh battery, and microSD support.

One thing he also assures is that there will be no USB Type-C in the new handset, something we know plenty of you will be disappointed by.

Another important point to mention is that even though the camera will only have 12 MP, they will be larger pixels (similar to the Nexus 6P/5X cameras). And though this doesn’t tell us much about picture quality on its own, we must keep in mind Samsung has always been a leader in smartphone camera technology (at least for a while after a new flagship is released).

Shame, but it does have a new SoC so let's see what battery life is like.

Also no Type-C probably is a good thing for this year going by the current Type-C cable-gate issues surrounding the whole thing on the market. Need another year for that dust to settle and manufacturers to buckle up their standards compliance.
 
Well that's a bummer. :( oh well. It'll still be a stellar handset. Im glad it has micro USB. USB c is still a bit too new, as nice as plugging the cable in any old way is great, they need to iron out any problems. And give manufacturers time to comply to standards.
 
Samsung Galaxy S7 Teaser Page Reveals Tons Of Features - Confirms NO Water Resistance

It seems Samsung got the memo that LG has thrown down the gauntlet with its LG G5 and is aiming to take its fellow Korean rival head-on - and what's more, Samsung's response is to take a leaf out of LG's playbook, in what may be an unprecedented move for Sammy, by launching an official teaser website in Indonesia ahead of the official unveiling.

As expected, the teaser confirms many of the features we've heard rumoured for some time, including the fingerprint scanner, the Galaxy S7 edge's curved display, and the advanced camera capabilities. It also hinted at water resistance, as did an embedded YouTube video by showing the device being used in the rain. Interestingly, GSMArena reports that the video originally posted was different, previously explicitly naming the Galaxy S7 - a new version since uploaded no longer does. Also it's worth noting that at the bottom of the teaser page Samsung writes a disclaimer:

"THE SCENE IN THE VIDEO IS FOR DRAMATIZATION PURPOSES ONLY. THIS PRODUCT IS NOT WATER RESISTANT AND IT SHOULD NOT BE EXPOSED TO AND/OR SUBMERGED INTO WATER/LIQUID."

GOT THAT?! OK THEN!
