Samsung Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge-A good mix of old and new 'innovations' by Sammy

After a month full of leaks and rumours,the flagship twins from Samsung finally arrive.Samsung Galaxy S7 and S7 edge are not a huge improvement over their predecessors in terms of their design language.Samsung is taking the "why fix it if it ain't broke" approach as the design on the previous S series phones were pretty good.Other than that,Samsung has made a few incremental improvements in cameras and of course,the performance along with bringing back some of the popular features.


So,what's new?

Samsung has 'innovated' by going back in time and bringing back features like expandable storage along with IP68 dust and water resistance capability ala Samsung Galaxy S5.Bringing back the expandable storage options,might have brought smiles on the faces of the reviewers and fans alike who were quite disappointed by the lack of sd card support in their predecessors.The great thing is that Samsung has brought these utility features without compromising on the build quality and the design aspect of these phones.

Some technical stuff..

Support for Vulkan API :These flagships from Samsung now support Vulkan API.For those who don't know what Vulkan is,here is a bit of info on that..Vulkan API targets realtime 3D graphics applications such as games and interactive media, and offers higher performance and lower CPU usage. In addition to its lower CPU usage, Vulkan is also able to better distribute work amongst multiple CPU cores.Modern Desktop already supports this API but Samsung claims that it is the first one to introduce it on smartphones.There is also thermal spreader tube that basically keeps the processor cool and helps in preventing overheating.So,basically better gaming performance at least on paper.
Better Camera Technology :Camera megapixel count is reduced to 12 mp but the sensor features the widest aperture to be seen on smartphone bringing more light into the picture and hence better low light performance,along with bringing the ability of dual pixel autofocus.


Other Technical Specifications

Samsung Galaxy S7 : 5.1 inch 2k Amoled panel coupled with either a snapdragon 820 or Exynos 8890 processor depending on the region.It also has 4 gb ram and 32 gb of inbuild storage along with sd card expandability.The camera  combination is 12mp on the back and 5mp on the front.The battery is rated at 3,000mAh with fast charging capabilities.

Google sides US and bans Huawei

Google has just released a statement that they will be banning Huawei's license to use Android immediately as it must compile to US Laws. This is a hugh blow to the Chinese smartphone maker which has already become the 3rd largest smartphone maker in the world, on the back of some solid smartphones.  Speaking to  Reuters , a Google spokesperson confirmed that “Google Play and the security protections from Google Play Protect will continue to function on existing Huawei devices.” This means while the current smartphones should receive updates, the future is surely uncertain for Huawei. The decision might leave Huawei to choose Open source version of Android, called AOSP for its devices which is devoid of any google sevices and which usually recieves the security updates much later than Android. Huawei might also contemplate launching its own OS, incase matters get worse.  It is very sad to see politics getting involved in tech industry. Other famed compa...

LeEco Le 1s Review - After a month's use

LeEco(or Letv as it was formally called) launched its first two smartphones in India in the beginning of February this year. Some people may look at it as just another Chinese company trying to make inroads in India but, to be frank LeEco is slightly different as it is one of the first or maybe only Chinese company to follow the concept of creating an ecosystem of products called-Le Ecosystem(hence,the name change). Now coming to the smartphone i.e the Le 1s,company seems to have created quite a good product to performance ratio with its Inr 10,999 price tag,here in India. So,let's find out if it is any good. Build & Design As far as build goes I can quite easily say that it's one of the first smartphones in India to sport a metallic unibody build at a budget price. Yes,now there are phones like the Huawei honor 5x and the Redmi Note 3 but this one seems to be the best as far as build goes. In design department,LeEco further stamps its authority with a symmetrically d...
