Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge – One Year Later (review)

The Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge originally released on March 12, 2016. Now that users have had a full year to use and explore the device in the wild, we decided to look back on the S7 Edge and how it’s fared over the past 12+ months. Samsung is slightly notorious for having devices that find ways to slow down over the years in one way or another. Whether this is a flaw in design or just an inevitability of all electronics, it’s still disheartening considering the cost of these devices.

Even though the S7 Edge has been out a full year, the specs of the device still impress. Let’s refresh our memories with a lovely list of numbers and details pertaining to the S7 Edge.
