Some might find the images flattering, smoothing over blemishes, but blown up to full size they’re far too soft for my tastes. It produces very soft images that lack fine detail, even without the various beauty modes on. The 5-megapixel selfie camera is slightly disappointing. The lens has an f-stop of 1.7, making it very fast, but also able to produce stunning close-up images with lovely bokeh effects blurring out the background with pleasing colours, which is particularly good for taking portraits or images of objects. Given most of us take photos in poor light most of the time, particularly in grey Britain, that’s important. But it is the low-light performance that sets it apart from the rest, producing some of the best blur-free images in poor light of any smartphone. The 12-megapixel sensor produces detailed, rich images and focuses so fast you think it’s broken. Samsung’s cameras have been very good over the years, but the one fitted to the Galaxy S7 Edge is a cut above. The camera app is as complex or point-and-shoot simple as you need it to be. In my testing using the digital clock option the phone dropped just 2% battery in 8 hours overnight, which is very impressive. Samsung says it’ll use less than 1% of the battery an hour. The Edge has Samsung’s new always-on screen, which displays the time, a calendar of a picture on the screen when it isn’t actively being used.

Using it as my primary device, listening to four hours of music via Bluetooth headphones, browsing and using apps for three hours with hundreds of push emails and 30 minutes of light gaming, the S7 Edge would see me from 7am on day one until 7pm on day two. The battery life of the S7 Edge was excellent, easily lasting over a day and a half without any special treatment. Using Samsung’s latest wireless chargers should be even faster, but one is not included in the box. The relatively large battery charged from 25% to 100% in 90 minutes via a Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0 USB power adapter, and wirelessly charged at a rate of 0.5% a minute using a 5W pad built into a piece of Ikea furniture. The S7 Edge is one of the fastest charging smartphones available, and while it doesn’t support the new USB-C connector it has both quick charging and wireless charging. The digital clock version of the always-on screen. This time, however, all the ports are open and do not require fiddly plugs. S7 Edge is waterproof to IP68 standards meaning 1.5m for 30 minutes in fresh water. Samsung’s AMOLED screens have always been excellent. It has a great range of brightness, taking it from really very dim to bright enough to see in direct sunlight. It’s pin-sharp with deep blacks and rich colours. The screen is the best I’ve ever seen fitted to a smartphone. That half a centimetre makes a big difference in ease of handling.

It makes it really easy to use, particularly next to Apple’s iPhone 6S Plus, which feels massive and unwieldy in comparison.įor comparison, the Galaxy S7 Edge is 72.6mm wide with its 5.5in screen, which is the same width as the Nexus 5X with its smaller 5.2in screen, 5.2mm narrower than the 5.7in Nexus 6P and 5.3mm narrower than 5.5in iPhone 6S Plus with the same size screen. It is narrower than many smartphones with much smaller screens and is shorter too. The curved edges and minimal bezel of the 5.5in phone make the S7 Edge one of the physically smallest phablets to date. On the table it looks like a well-crafted piece of technology should. In the hand it feels fantastic, much more comfortable and easier to hold.
Side-by-side they look barely any different apart from a bigger screen – 5.5in to the older 5.1in – and the back now has rounded edges. It is this version that the Galaxy S7 Edge ( find here) takes its design from. The Galaxy S6 came in a regular flat version and one called “Edge” with a screen with curved on the left and right edges. Out went derided plastic and in came premium materials: glass and metal. Last year saw a dramatic shift in design for Samsung. The back glass is now rounded at the edges, which makes it very nice to hold.
