Feb 23, 2016, 19:08

According to CNET, the Galaxy S7 will be priced at AU$1149 while the S7 Edge will be available for AU$1249 in Australia.

The Android 6.0.1 update is also available for the unlocked version of the Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 Edge smartphones, but it is not known yet when the unlocked variants of these two devices will receive it.

Like the predecessor, the Galaxy S7 is dismantled from the back.

"Although there are significant improvements under the bonnet with the camera, the chipset, the removable storage and the water resistance, Samsung will have to make sure that's visible to consumers", opined IHS technology analyst Ian Fogg, speaking to BBC.

On the software side, the Edge panel is now wider and supports third party integration so expect to see widgets for news and sports. The public have had a year to recognize the Galaxy S6, and now when they spot an S7 they'll instantly know it's a Samsung phone. Samsung also gave it an even bigger battery, a whopping 3600mAh unit.

The S7 comes with a 3,000 mAh battery, while the S7 Edge comes with a 3,600 mAh battery.

Samsung have however chosen to use its own octa-core Exynos 8 Octa processor in the Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge in markets outside of US, China and Japan.

"With Galaxy Forever, our customers can easily swap out their new GS7 or GS7 edge for the next generation after just 12 payments of less than $26 per month - that is less than a dollar a day". Samsung has also brought back the MicroSD slot in a hybrid tray that can either support dual SIM cards or a SIM card with an SD card. With its 5.3-inch Quad HD IPS display, high end specs and all-metallic chassis, it meets the typical premium quality standards we expect for a device in this class.

Pre-orders, beginning Tuesday for the Galaxy S7 and the larger S7 Edge, will get you a free Gear VR - that's Samsung's virtual reality headset.

All the major carriers are offering deals for the new phones.
