Samsung has continued with the kiến thiết language of the Samsung Galaxy S6 and Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge for the two follow-ups. That means they’re both beautiful phones with finely sculpted metal rims & smooth glass rear covers.

For instance, Yahoo has built both a news and sports ứng dụng that’ll show all the latest goings on, football scores & the like.
Still, the Edge sides are much more about the style than substance, but we can take that when they look this good. They definitely give the Galaxy 7 Edge the, er, Edge over the plain S7 in the looks department.

The S7 Edge does have a few screen issues though. The sides are prone to strong reflections và there’s an ever so slight xanh tinge when you’re looking at apps with white backgrounds. It’s a small issue, but it’s hard khổng lồ unsee once you spot it.
Considering the S7 Edge has a screen the same kích thước as that of the iPhone 6S Plus, it’s impressive how small & compact Samsung has managed lớn keep the phone. To lớn be honest, when we first picked it up we thought the screen was much smaller than it was.
