Samsung Galaxy S7 camera to protrude just 0.8mm

Vince, 02 February, 2016

Seasoned leakster OnLeaks has outed a couple of schemanics, which show that Samsung has made subtle changes to the back design of the Galaxy S7 compared to the Galaxy Note5. Both phones have slightly curved backs, but whereas the Galaxy Note5 sports curves only on the left and right sides, the Galaxy S7 will sport them from each side on every edge of the back.

Additionally, another schematics snapshot shows that the Galaxy S7 will have a camera bump, but not the same as the Galaxy S6. Samsung has tried to reduce the bump on the back and for the Galaxy S7 it's believed to be 0.8mm compared to the 1.7mm of the Galaxy S6's camera.

Yesterday, @evleaks leaked an alleged press photo of the Galaxy S7's back.

Previous leaks have suggested the phone will have four versions: Galaxy S7, Galaxy S7 Plus, Galaxy S7 edge, and Galaxy S7 edge Plus. In terms of specifications, expect a choice between the Exynos 8890 and Snapdragon 820 chipsets. Other rumors point a brand new 12MP 1/2.0" sensor.

Samsung will reveal the Galaxy S7 on Sunday, February 21 in Barcelona. That's just a day before MWC 2016 officially kicks off.

No, you can't see the difference. You think you can, but you can't. At least most people can't see the difference. Even if you see the difference, then who cares? It doesn't make any sense.

This means you are incompetent. Samsung AMOLED uses PenTile which makes the screen pixelated. Diamond IS PenTile. LCD displays are not affected by this problem. Go spread lies somewhere else.
