It has only been a few months since the Samsung Galaxy S6 was released but fans are already speculating what the Galaxy S7 would be like.
The early talks regarding the Galaxy S7 might be a way for Samsung to take the attention away from the problems that surfaced from the Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 Edge, according to a report by Tech Gadget Central. Samsung was only able to ship out less than 10 million phones out of the 60 million manufactured. Patently Apple cited how the S6 series sacrificed removable batteries and memory-expansion slots in exchange for a thinner and more aesthetic design. Sales has been struggling for the Galaxy S6 in Japan and other countries.
The SamsungGalaxySVII website revealed a number of rumored specifications for the next flagship smartphone, which will allegedly release early in 2016. The Samsung Galaxy S7 is said to feature a powerful 30-megapixel rear camera. The front camera will most likely be 10 megapixels. There might also be a GigaPixel feature to shoot high resolution images and automatically stitch these to create an ultra-high resolution image.
The S7 is also rumored to include a 5.5-inch Super AMOLED display with an 8K resolution. The device might include 8GB of RAM which is more than most desktops and laptops today. The processor might be the 64-bit Exynos processor. For better speed, the 4.5 GHz Snapdragon processor might be installed. The internal memory might offer a choice between 32GB, 64GB and 128GB. Furthermore, the S7 may offer waterproof technology, 5G network connection, a superfast Wi-Fi connection, infrared sensors that can measure body temperature and even see through walls. The powerful smartphone may retail at $1,099.
TheGalaxyS7.com wrote that an announcement might be made by Samsung about the Galaxy S7 in December 2015 to sufficiently make a release happen in the first quarter of 2016. There will most likely be a Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge introduced later on. The website also stated that a 20-megapixel front camera sensor with a rotatory system might be a more practical expectation for the upcoming device. There might be 4GB of RAM, a 4K resolution display that might feature a foldable design, an octa-core Snapdragon processor 3.0+ GHz or Exynos 16-core big.LITTLE. Other rumored features include retina scanning, an advanced Touch ID button and fast charging technology.
Samsung Galaxy fans will have to wait for official announcements and details from the company to confirm the rumors.
