Samsung Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 edge launched in India at Rs. 48,900 and Rs. 56,900 with Free Gear VR

Samsung has officially announced the launch of its flagship smartphones the Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 Edge in India. Pre-bookings for the two smartphones that were unveiled at MWC 2016 last month open on Wednesday, with the smartphones available from March 18. Those who pre-book the smartphones by March 17 will receive the Samsung Gear VR headset bundled for free.

Price:


The Samsung Galaxy S7 has been priced in India at Rs. 48,900, while the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge will be available at Rs. 56,900 - both prices for the 32GB variant. The price for the 64GB variant has not been announced at this stage. Samsung offers twice voice & data for the first 6 months to select Vodafone Red Plan customers.

The Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 Edge come with a new Samsung Concierge service that's available inside the My Galaxy app. The Samsung Concierge service comes with four key benefits: My Assistant (powered by Haptik) that will let customers order flowers, do Web check-in, set reminders, and use other services; Fast Track access at Samsung service centres; Phone Pickup & Drop with access to a standby device if your Galaxy S7 or S7 Edge need to be repaired; and Chat With Samsung customer support that will answer everyday question about your device like "How do I enable Hotspot?". Samsung says all services will be available to Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 Edge customers free of cost, and it might be extended to Galaxy S6 and Note 5 customers at a later stage.

Here Some reasons Which is best iPhone 6S or Samsung Galaxy S7/Galaxy S7 edge

  • The camera is almost certainly a reason to pick the Galaxy S7 over the iPhone 6S.

  • The one thing the iPhone 6S doesn't have is water and dust resistance. It also doesn't have a microSd card slot for memory expansion. These are two things that are dear to users who are used to it. Samsung has managed an engineering feat by adding IP68 water and dust resistance in a design that's a thing of beauty clad in just glass and metal.

  • Samsung Galaxy S7 support for fast charging technologies and wireless charging.

  • Virtual Reality piques your interest, then the Galaxy S7 will be a better bet than the iPhone 6S. 
  • Considering the Galaxy S7 starts with a 32GB model and is offered in a 64GB model, with the added benefit of a microSD card slot that can support up to 200GB cards, the Galaxy S7 is the phone for the person who wants to keep a lot of data locally. The iPhone 6S still starts at 16GB, which is just unacceptable for a phone that costs in excess of Rs 40,000 and like always, there's no support for the microSD card slot.

Samsung Galaxy S7, Galaxy S7 edge specifications and features:

Both smartphones share a similar set of specifications, and only the display and battery size differ. The Galaxy S7 features a 5.1-inch screen, while the Galaxy S7 edge features a 5.5-inch screen. Both are Super AMOLED displays at QHD resolution. It will be interesting to see if Samsung launches  Exynos 8890 variant. The processors are paired with 4GB of RAM, and the smartphones come with 32GB and 64GB storage options and expand MicroSD card slot up to 200GB.

On the photography front, they feature a 12-megapixel f/1.7 rear camera with OIS and PDAF, while up front is a 5-megapixel f/1.7 selfie camera. The Galaxy S7 features a 3,000mAh battery, and the Galaxy S7 edge features a 3,600mAh battery with Wireless Fast Charging and Quick Charge 2.0 support.

Connectivity options include dual-SIM card slots (hybrid setup), 4G LTE, NFC, Wi-Fi 802.11ac and GPS. Both smartphones run on Android 6.0 Marshmallow with TouchWiz UI running atop.
