Samsung Galaxy S7 hand on review

The Samsung Galaxy S7 is a stellar samsung s6 battery replacement. It's a handset that packs great battery smarts, excellent camera abilities and loads of raw power into an increasingly affordable package.

Even though Samsung has replaced the Galaxy S7 with the new Galaxy S8, it's still worth taking a look at the 2016 flagship Samsung phone for your next big purchase. The price has begun to drop quite impressively, and the Galaxy S8 lacks a killer feature that makes it a must-have over the Galaxy S7.

The design is similar to 2015's Galaxy S6 - meaning some have said the Galaxy S7 should be called the Galaxy S6S - but this in-depth review shows there's a lot more going on under the hood to supplement the improved design.

If you're looking for the curved phone variant of this design, the Galaxy S7 isn't competing as closely with the Galaxy S7 Edge as the S6 did with the S6 Edge, with the curved display variant getting a bump in screen size this time round, taking it more into phablet territory.

(Update: Good news for those who have hung onto their trusty Samsung Galaxy S7: Android Oreo is coming...at some point. Samsung is currently trailing the beta software for the Samsung Galaxy S8, but it should make its way in the coming months. Better yet, you can get one of these still-awesome phones for lower than ever with our curated selection of the best Samsung Galaxy S7 deals.)

In the UK you're looking at a hugely impressive £420 SIM-free, while those in the US will have to part with $199 upfront as part of a two-year contract, or fork over $440 for the unlocked Samsung Galaxy S7 price. In Australia the SIM-free price was set at AU$1149 but you can now get it for around AU$700.

The price has dropped significantly after the Samsung Galaxy S8 launch making this a great price for a five star phone - see how much you'll need to spend on your contract at our best Galaxy S7 deals page.

Even though there's a newer Samsung Galaxy S8, it's hard not to like the Galaxy S7. It takes the much-improved, premium design from the Galaxy S6 and reinstates a few features from the Galaxy S5 that were shockingly missing from its successor.

The package is an enticing one, but 2016 was a tough year for flagship galaxy s6 battery replacement, so Samsung needed something big to stay ahead. The LG G5 launched with a unique modular pull but failed, the HTC 10 looked to rekindle some of the Taiwanese firm's former glories (with mixed success) and, of course, the iPhone 7 landed with no headphone jack and waterproofing to match the Galaxy S7's similar ability.

Samsung may have been first out of the flagship blocks, but it needed to make the most of its strong start to stay ahead of the pack.
