Inside the Galaxy S7 and S7 edge
Samsung posted a small blog showing what’s inside the Galaxy S7 and S7 edge. While the blog is abit (well huge) advertorial, it's always funny to see technology back to its basics, up-to the PCB. Have a peek after the break.
In order to provide a more comprehensive look at the advanced functions and features embedded in the Galaxy S7 and S7 edge, we are presenting a teardown of the new Galaxy smartphones. To make the new Galaxy S7 and S7 edge water and dust resistant, satisfying IP68 specifications, an type of water protective tape has been added to the back of the front and rear glass of the phone’s casing.

As someone that went from Note 5 to S7E, that is the best smartphone atm and probably ever made(not perfect).
But 6.0.1 bugs annoy me, they present on all their devices mainly laggy 3d performance, hopefully they fix it soon.
No need tho since I love my Note 4 but I'm waiting for Note 6 pre-release specs or its release/reviews anyway.
If it doesn't impress me and if nothing better(imo) comes out by then, I'm all set on the S7E.
Its gonna be even cheaper too since it would be 6-8months old by then so thats a bonus right there.
If I hadn't gotten the N4 last August('15) I would had jumped all over it day 1.

But 6.0.1 bugs annoy me, they present on all their devices mainly laggy 3d performance, hopefully they fix it soon.Coming from a Note 3 myself (god that think was a beast and still is, too bad it never got past android 5.0 and got IR blaster) and tried a Lumia 550. W10M is a disaster for me and I can say I love my S7E. The camera quality for example is superb and the overall snappiness of the device pleases me.
Not to forget the battery, it still amazes me. SoT of more than 6h is not uncommon. Running an all black theme also reduces screen consumption.
I love my decision to choose the S7E.
What bugs are you experiencing? You keep telling about performance issues with 6.0.1 with almost every post. Would you be so kind to elaborate? I want to check it out myself as well.

Yes run angry birds 2 and play for a few levels notice how slow it will get. Then minimize it and maximize then performance back to normal for a sec. On ppsspp emulator playing tekken it easily observed

Exynos or Snapdragon? In benchmarks the Snapdragon performs noticeably worse than the Exynos variant.
