Approaching the new year means that reports, rumors, and leaks regarding Samsung’s next flagship are coming. Samsung actually understands and has already revealed the processor to be found inside of the upcoming Galaxy S7; however, the company has yet to comment on the recent revelation that the handset will usher in the return of the beloved microSD card slot. On Tuesday, a new report out of Korea claimed that Samsung will be focusing on internal upgrades rather than design with the Galaxy S7.
Here’s what a source told the Korea Times:
“As the S6 and S6 Edge represented progress, the S7 will have improvements both in picture quality, performance and other some new features.
The key point is can consumers enjoy content with enhanced viewing quality and boosted processing speed.”
Samsung allegedly wants to save on design so that it can funnel the extra cash towards specifications. So it won’t be surprising if the Galaxy S7 ends up resembling the Galaxy S6 or Galaxy Note 5 while the processor and camera are way ahead of its predecessors. This could all be what leads to the handset carrying a lower price tag.
There has been some chatter that the Galaxy S7 will be revealed in January at CES 2016, but, historically, Samsung tends to debut its flagship in February at MWC in Barcelona. It doesn’t hurt that Evan Blass has stated AT&T is currently testing the Galaxy S7. For now, I think it’s best to assume that the Galaxy S7 will launch at MWC 2016. If Samsung wants to do it earlier, we’ll be receiving invites for an event at CES in Las Vegas next month.
