Galaxy S7 Edge alleged to be larger than the Galaxy S7

4.5
Samsung is expected to launch its next flagship smartphone a few months from now with features such as pressure sensitive touch and a retina scanner, however, newer leaks are pouring in with new information every time. The latest leaked document obtained by Android Authority from a trusted source, shows a size comparison sheet featuring the Galaxy S7, Galaxy S7 Edge and the Galaxy S6.


It can be seen from the image that the standard Galaxy S7 will retain similar dimensions as the Galaxy S6 but the bezel seems to be reduced to accommodate a slightly larger 5.2-inch screen instead of the 5.1-inch one found in the current flagship.

The interesting revelation from the leaked image is that the S7 Edge will be larger than the S7, which was not the case with this year's flagships which were identical except for the curved screen on the Edge variant. As seen in the comparison, the S7 Edge will be longer by 8 mm and wider by 3 mm than the regular version and will feature a 5.5-inch screen.

If the leak is to be believed, then there won't be a reason for Samsung to release the next generation Edge+ smartphone as it did this year. It is rumoured that the Korean electronics giant would launch its next flagship devices around March 2016, but we can expect more leaks till that time arrives.

The phones are getting even larger. Not really a fan of bulky phones. Gonna be more of a pain taking in/out of your pockets.

Intesresting, its going to be a longer phone haha. How much bigger are they going to get, it's already at the point where people literally need to get pockets that can fit there freaking iPad cell phone!!! I have an iPhone 5s, people complain that it's too small, but I think it's just fine haha. It's weird in my opinion having a giant phone, like when u call someone ur literally holding a book to ear. GINORMOUS.

ZonESpiTfiRe Besides the fact that I thought the S6 just came out, phones seem to keep repeating a cycle of sizes. They started out big, then they got smaller. Now that they have touchscreens, they get bigger. I wonder how long until we reach the stage where we shrink them again.


Probably when we add vr to the phone marketplace if that even happens in our lifetime, considering how much power it takes to run vr
