Samsung Galaxy S7’s screen is usable when wet, watch our video!

22 March, 2016
After its departure from an all plastic and hyper-glaze design, Samsung scrapped water-resistance from the Galaxy S6 family. However, this year, Samsung has decided to give immersion-protection a second try with its new Galaxy S7 line.

      According to ifixit (teardown), the Galaxy S7 is the hardest smartphones to repair and nearly
      impossible to replace the screen, USB port, microphone, and soft button LEDs.

Because there is video about S7 totally not responsive: https://youtu.be/TodYtUqsg4U . Also so you know: heavy rain is deadly - touchscreen respond to every drop. Again non-edge sibling lost. I guess edge+exynos is best choice.

          BT shutter from SOOCOO S60 is it waterproof?

            -Samsung always say 'water resistant. I think its good, so people do not submerge it. In case people do it, it will mostly survive. Its better than saying its waterproof with many limitation.
            -Samsung took a risk by adding waterproof feature to dual glass design, while sony moved to matte glass and now metal back. i think Samsung acknowledge about self cracking screen. So they streghten the glass with 3D thermo process.
            - moist sensor is good idea. It means samsung think about anything as usual. It need additional hardware and software. This kind of skill sony never has.

              Dual heatpipes, 23 Mar 2016even can use under water you must find the shutter button ... moreOR you could try using the BT shutter commonly used in Action Cams.
              I've used the BT shutter from SOOCOO S60 with my smartphones (Huawei Mate 8, Meizu Pro 5 and Xperia Z5) and it's working.

                even can use under water you must find the shutter button dont miss press it , if they have a real physical shutter button it will more handy. S7 also could not attach strap, once it drop off under water, it could a hard time.
