SAMSUNG GALAXY S7 AND S7 EDGE WITH OCULUS VIRTUAL REALITY GEAR



Samsung has teamed up with Facebook to release the Samsung Galaxy S7 and the Samsung Galaxy s7 Edge. This new piece of genius and engineering was available for preorder on Feb 21and would be officially released March 10 2016.

Samsung which was credited with releasing the best phone of 2015 has been under pressure to keep up this feat with strong competitors like apple iphone, LG and the rest out there.


THE REVIEW:

pcadvisor.com makes a clear review of the Samsung galaxy s7 and s7 edge.

Let's kick off with what aren't technically new features but things which Samsung has decided to bring back on the Galaxy S7 models. Fans disappointed with the Galaxy S6's lack of waterproofing and expandable storage will be pleased with the news, indeed. The S7 features an IP68 rating which Samsung is pitching at water-resistant and a Micro-SD card slot which can take up to 200GB cards. Colours include Black Onyx, Gold Platinum and the edge will also come in Silver Titanium.

The third big thing being requested by users is a removable battery but the news isn't so great on this front. Although the battery is bigger – 3000mAh for the S7 and 3600mAh on the edge model – it's stuck inside the phone. Samsung got two out of three, at least.

You're probably wondering whether Samsung has opted for a USB Type-C port which we've seen on a number of devices in recent months. The answer is no which we think is a little odd, instead the Galaxy S7 phones have the same Micro-USB port.






The Galaxy S7 and S7 edge share many specs as you would expect but the screens are the main difference. The regular handset still has a 5.1in SuperAMOLED screen with a Quad HD (1440x2560) resolution. Meanwhile, the Galaxy S7 edge display has got bigger at 5.5in (still Quad HD) which suggests we won't see a larger Galaxy S7 edge+ model unless it is really huge.

OCULUS:

Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg revealed that the the new Samsung Galaxy s7 and s7 Edge would come with Samsung Virtual Reality (VR) gear Powered by full free Oculus Virtual Reality Software which would enable users have full 3D experience in video and gaming. Purchases after the pre order period has elapsed would attract a separate fee of 50USD on the Oculus software.

The Oculus weblog had this to say:

"To make sure you get the most out of your new phone and Gear VR, Oculus is adding a content bundle featuring six made-for-VR games with an estimated $50 USD value to all US pre-orders. Bundles vary by phone carrier and include hit games and experiences like EVE: Gunjack, Land’s End, and Anshar Wars 2.

There are now over 200 apps and games available on Gear VR. Recent favorites include Goosebumps, PGA TOUR, and Hidden Temple, with more great hits on the way. We can’t wait to dive into multiplayer battles in Herobound: Gladiators, catch a giant fish in Bait, and puzzle our way to safety in Please Don’t Touch Anything – all coming soon to Gear VR.

We’re also making improvements to the Oculus app and Store, so keep a look out for user reviews, auto updates, additional currency options, and more.





The Preorder Price for the Samsung S7 is £569 (about N220K) while the S7 is £639 (about N245K)
Before you rush to buy, it is worth noting that Samsung produccts drop rapidly after the first three months of First release.
