Rumor has it that the Galaxy S7 and the Galaxy S7 edge flagships could pack always-on displays. Eldar Murtazin has revealed this information while mentioning how the device would differentiate itself from the predecessor, the Galaxy S6. This could be a major breakthrough for Samsung as this feature is quickly turning out to be an industry standard. The LG G5 which is expected to be revealed on the same day as the Galaxy S7 (Feb 21) has already been confirmed to be packing an always-on display.

Of course, Samsung is yet to confirm the inclusion of this feature, so we suggest you take it with a grain of salt for the time being. A report from earlier today talked about the possibility of the Galaxy S7 being water resistant, which is quite interesting as well, especially since we're just a few days away from the release.
