Samsung Galaxy S7 and S7 edge pre-orders break records

01 March, 2016
The Galaxy S7 edge is better liked with 64% of customers opting for one.

Sort by:

Agreed with Bunyip22's comment that it was the lack of microSD card that was the problem for the sales of S6/S6Edge and Note.5/S6Edge+. Samsung even dialed back the Note.5 sales with only 32gb, and not launching in Europe for more than 4 months. Pretty obvious that lacking microSD was never the DNA for any Samsung Galaxy flagship.

Next is bringing back the removable battery somehow, like LG G5. I'd like the choice of switching up to a higher battery capacity.

      SathishKrish, 02 Mar 2016Simple! Because peops will wait for the next Gen. Of course people are waiting for the following products, new, but what do you do when these products are actually just some junk rebranded as S7?

            For reference check Errica's review on S6 edge and I've seen the phenomenon on a S6 edge belonging to a friend.You can see the keyboard and the page burnt into the screen.So it happens.

                    Has anyone else seen the greyish line where the display bends on S7 edge(right side of the device)?It's the same as the one on S6Edge. I saw it ,in the GSM's hands on video.That makes me worry regarding a quicker display burn.If it's true then ,paying almost £700 for a burnt display is a no go.

Last year the ratio of S6 edge to S6 was 1:4. Now, the ratio of S7 edge and S7 is 4:6. They learnt their lesson after not meeting the demand of S6 edge last year. Though this year seem like too many going for S7 edge. I smell trouble because the new ratio is not up to par with the 64% majority going for S7 edge. You can also see they got rid of special color like sapphire and emerald due to unability to meet the demand either. They should had gone for 5:5 ratio to play safe.

                                        had the opportunity to hold the s7 edge in my hand yesterday. It is already on display in Satur n in Germany. Believe me, this phone will be a huge success for Samsung as they have listened to their customers to improve on the battery and bring back the sd card slot. The look of the phone is absolutely stunning.
