Because all publications that are currently on the market, argue that Samsung's new Galaxy S7 is a must-have device, we decided that there should be a counterargument.
Almost all articles dealing with Galaxy S7, report on the positive side of the device alone, proving that Samsung's massive marketing machine really does a really good job.
Below we will mention five disadvantages of Samsung's new smartphone, what we consider the most important (if you think something else you can add it to the comments).
The first thing you need to know about Galaxy S7 is the fact that Samsung has decided not to use the latest technologies on its device. So the device does not come with the new USB Type-C port used by other major mobile phone manufacturers.
This means that the Galaxy S7 comes with the old and much slower microUSB 2.0 port.
Second downside, is that the Galaxy S7 comes with a non-detachable battery. Although it has a slightly larger battery (3000 mAh) than the Galaxy S6, many people prefer to be able to change the battery on the go.
Apparently Samsung thought that this issue would be solved by adding wireless and fast charging on the Galaxy S7. But here comes the third reason why you shouldn't buy Samsung's flagship.
Surprisingly, the Galaxy S7 comes with Quick Charge 2.0 and not 3.0. The latter is 38% more efficient than Quick Charge 2,0 and twice as fast as the original version of the wireless charging technology.
Let's go below: If you use the fingerprint scanner to unlock your phone, you will probably be disappointed to hear that the Galaxy S7 fingerprint sensor has not improved in any way from the previous model.
The fifth disadvantage we have found is the lack of backup storage. The cheapest model comes with 32GB storage, but the system files and Samsung bloatware use 8GB. So you will be left with just 24GB.
If you want more storage, you can add an SD card, but you won't be able to install apps either gamea to her. You can save images, videos and other files.
The Adoptable Storage feature that comes with Android 6.0 marshmallow could help with that, but Samsung didn't include it in the Galaxy S7.
Other drawbacks could be mentioned. If you want to add something you can leave your comment.
