Samsung Galaxy S7 Rumors thread

The only rumor left is when will Sprint let us place orders and are they part of the Gear VR promo?

According to the Sprint Newsroom, pre-orders start February 23rd, and if you order by March 18, you get the VR.

Looks like I'll be up late Monday night then.

I'm curious to see how this Buy One Get One 1/2 Off will do for Galaxy Flagship sales at Sprint.

I'd think it ideal for couples on non corporate plans where their phone tastes are the same.

According to the Samsung Galaxy landing page on Sprint.com, the microSD slot is capable of using up to a 2TB microSD card? That sounds odd.

The 2TB has been common on the last few LG phones.

On the Sprint page it says 200GB. I wonder if this is for future proofing the phone.

Does the $10 loyalty credit apply with Galaxy Forever for people on legacy plans? I don't see it mentioned in the press release.

-Official Sprint page is http://sprint.com/gs7

Right now it doesn't have a pre-order

 

-Best buy only has the 32gb model.... I haven't seen any confirmation Sprint is carrying the 64gb model.

Can you do Sprint leasing program if your on a Framily plan?

Yes, definitely. I have been leasing an S6 on a Framily plan since April 2015. For some reason, there has never been a charge on my bill for the phone.

I'll probably pre-order the Galaxy S7 Edge.

 

 

 

But if the FCC RF reports that the S7 gets better signal, I might switch to that.

 

I doubt it though.  The S7 Edge should have less interference with no metal in the display and better antenna diversity.

Thanks! Didn't see it in that link. I thought it was only coming in one size 32gb.

Yeah I read there is only 1 size, the 32GB model. I think 64GB in this context is the size of the included SD card.

It'd sure be nice to know.  I'd wait a bit if there is a 64gb or even a 128gb version coming.

Why they wouldn't release it immediately is beyond me.

 

Sammie's website has a couple 32gb black/gold versions up for TMO and ATT

Android central says only 32gb.

 

 

Which is perplexing since supposedly it will not support "SD as internal storage".

 

(Mostly because if you eject the SIM/SD Card while the phone is turned on, you could corrupt the SD card since it will be encrypted as internal storage).

 

 

But software likely isn't final, so who knows what will ship.

 

 

I assume modders will hack it back in, but I'm not sure I want to give up Samsung Pay.
