                AnonD-237590, 26 Dec 20168GB of rams = still can't compete with iPhone 6s lolJust because the iphone has a bigger sales margain doesnt mean its a better phone.....FAR from it....synthetic specs using benchmarks mean squat....samsung phones are superior in almost every aspect to an iphone....i have seen many youtube videos showing the iphone 6s beating the s7 edge by split seconds 'congrats' but who care for a split second??? Also iphones have a newer version of flash memory once ufs 2.1 is implemented it will again trounce iphone until they comeback with their own updated chip and so the circle continues

                  Even desktop PC's don't need that much memory. Some servers run on that amount of RAM.

                      My prediction on It's way in 2022 android users will use 32GB of ram in their phones, I hope then android works properly otherwise in 2025 they have to choose 64GB RAM option

                              Doubt it. Samsung gave up on the specs race 2 years ago. Nowadays it's all about Chinese companies if you want to be amazed. OnePlus with the most hardware, Xiaomi with the innovative designs (for example MiMix).

                              Samsung is as boring as Apple these days, I doubt that she will surprise us in 2017... then again most people like boring so more sale for Samsung/Apple I guess...

                                  I think the 5inch version will have 6gb ram 'only'. The 6inch version will have 8gb ram. This justify their 15% price increase at least. Higher specs means higher price.

                                      No removable battery and 3.5mm jack - no buy. No amount of RAM can compensate for that.

                                        Makes sense, since some phones today are already coming with 6gb of RAM. And this will effectively double its memory from the S7. And to be honest. Touchwiz needs all the RAM it can get.
