Galaxy S7 Edge vs Galaxy S6 Edge Plus: 5 Key Differences

Water Resistant Galaxy S7 Edge

The Galaxy S6, Galaxy S6 Edge Plus and Galaxy Note 5 all look similar to the new Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge, but don't have one really important feature. An IP68 dust and water resistant rating.

 There are no flaps covering the ports, weird covers that need to be snapped on just perfect, it just works, and works while being under water. Samsung sealed off the inside, then used a nano-coating to make the Galaxy S7 Edge water resistant.

The Galaxy S7 Edge can be submerged under 5ft of water for 30 minutes, and probably even longer. You can wash it off if it's dirty, or relax if there's an accident and it gets wet. Samsung managed to improve every aspect of this phone. From the design, internals, display, camera, battery life, add extra features and more all while making it water resistant. The IP68 and bigger battery made it thicker, but the curved back makes it feel thinner. Users won't even notice. In the end, the Galaxy S7 Edge is better than the Galaxy S6 Edge Plus in every way, aside from having a slightly smaller screen.

The Galaxy S7 Edge is available in Black, Gold, Silver and now Coral Blue from all major carriers, retail stores and around the globe. Check our Verizon's $400 off deal on Black Friday, T-Mobile buy one get one free, Sprint's buy one, and many other deals in the near future.
