How to watch Samsung Galaxy S7 & S7 Edge launch live stream: What to expect from Samsung Unpacked 2016
It's no secret: at Samsung Unpacked 2016 Samsung will unveil the Samsung Galaxy S7 and Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge. We've got a complete guide to the Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge rumours right here, but here are some highlights:
• The Galaxy S7 will be unveiled alongside the S7 Edge on 21 February, and go on sale on 11 March, with the 32GB models likely to cost 699- and 799 Euros respectively
• The much improved Galaxy S6 design will remain, almost certainly complete with the fingerprint scanner, heart-rate monitor and IR blaster, but the best news for long-time Samsung fans is that both waterproofing and a MicroSD card slot for expandable storage are expected to return
• Rather than Samsung's own Exynos processor, the Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge are likely to come with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 820, which supports even faster charging with Quick Charge 3.0
• Also expect to find Adreno 530 graphics, 4GB of LP-DDR4 RAM and 32- or 64GB of storage
• The screen is likely to be pressure-sensitive, much like Apple's Force Touch technology
• Also like Apple's iPhone, there may well be a feature similar to Apple's Live Photos. However, the camera spec itself is something we'll have to wait and see - some sources say Samsung will use Sony's 23Mp IMX300 camera, as seen in the Sony Xperia Z5, others say it will be bumped up to 20Mp, and still others say it will be reduced to 12Mp
• Battery life is expected to be much improved, now at a potential 17 hours
• Contrary to expectations, the Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge may feature Micro-USB rather than USB-C for data transfer and charging
