Samsung Galaxy S7 vs
iPhone 7: Di
splay
The big news for iPhone fans is the iPhone 7
will probably get a higher resolution display, specifically a QHD one with a
resolution of 2560 x 1440—as many Android handsets already have. This will
match the resolution of the Galaxy S7. As far as sizes, the iPhone 7 should come in the standard
4.7-inch and 5.5-inch (Plus) models.
Both Samsung's Galaxy S7 handsets to indeed have QHD display
resolutions for their Super AMOLED panels. For the 5.1in Galaxy S7 this results
in a pixel density of 577ppi, and for the larger 5.5in Galaxy S7 edge an
ever-so-slightly lower, but nonetheless sharp, 534ppi. Both also feature
Samsung's new Always On Display (AOD) capabilities, which is where the OLED
display selectively powers on a few specific pixels to show certain information
while in a sleep state. This is a low power solution and allows it to show the
time, date, and a few notifications.
The Galaxy S7 edge naturally has the curved display edges we've
seen on a few Samsung phones now. With Android Marshmallow and the new Touch Wiz
build Samsung has literally expanded how much of the edge of the screen
utilises the edge functions for things like shortcuts and widgets. It has also
allowed you to store more applications in the hot bar.
