Review of Samsung Galaxy S7

In the Galaxy S6, the South Koreans implemented several bold solutions that were not warmly received by all users. The manufacturer listened to the criticism and brought back a memory card slot in the Galaxy S7. In addition, the flagship has received the traditional performance boost, more RAM and a new camera that, although lower resolution, shoots much better in the dark. These are just some of the advantages that the Galaxy S7 offers.
