Key Highlights

If you wanted a showstopper phone in 2016, the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge was the one to flaunt. It didn’t just look elegant—it redefined premium design with its stunning curved edges, brilliant Quad HD Super AMOLED display, and solid craftsmanship. The phone wasn’t just about looks either; it delivered raw power with its Snapdragon 820 or Exynos 8890 chipset, paired with 4GB RAM, ensuring a seamless experience whether gaming, multitasking, or browsing. Samsung’s decision to keep the curved screen alive proved smart—the dual-edge design wasn’t just eye candy; it offered useful shortcuts and notifications right from the display’s edge. Add to that a 12MP f/1.7 rear camera with optical image stabilization and phase detection autofocus, and the S7 Edge quickly became a favorite for low-light photography enthusiasts. The 5MP front camera also impressed with crisp, bright selfies even in dim settings. The 3600mAh battery supported both Quick Charge 2.0 and wireless charging, making all-day usage effortless. The return of microSD support (up to 200GB) and IP68 water and dust resistance rounded out an already feature-rich package—something its predecessor lacked. What made the Galaxy S7 Edge special was its perfect blend of style, substance, and practicality. Samsung refined nearly every aspect from the Galaxy S6 series, listening to users and delivering where it mattered most. Whether you chose it for its looks, camera prowess, or sheer performance, the Galaxy S7 Edge stood out as one of the most complete smartphones of its time—proof that innovation and refinement can beautifully coexist.
