unboxingvideos on 02 Mar 16From the outside, there's very little to tell the S7 from the S6, as both phones use the same materials and colours. It's a great choice, in my opinion, as the S6 was clearly one of last year's best-looking and best-made smartphones. Using roughly the same design for another year makes loads of sense and it is what Apple has been doing for years. Size and weight are quite similar, too, with the S7 measuring 142x70x7.9mm and weighing 152g, while the S6 measures band. B. N. B. and weighs 132g. The weight and thickness difference are likely to come from the bigger battery: a perfectly acceptable compromise in my opinion. While the new handset might not look that different from the outside, there have been some clever design tweaks that make the phone waterproof and dustproof (IP68 certification). This means that the S7 can survive being submerged in up to 1.5m of water for 30m. As the waterproof design is integral to the phone, there's no need for rubber caps to block the phone's ports. As with the S7 Edge, Samsung has also reduced the camera bump on the back, so that the lens protrudes by just 0.46mm. It's an improvement, but I'd definitely like to see a design with the camera flush with the phone's body. IP68 Water & Dust resistant for 5 ft over 30 minutes. The dust and water resistance is another nice returning feature that doesn't impact on the look and feel of the phone, and it's an upgrade on the IP67 protection of the Samsung Galaxy S5. Technically, this means it's possible to completely submerge the phone in up to 15 metres of water for up to 30 minutes.
