If that wasn't enough, Consumer Reports has named the Galaxy S7 as the best smartphone ever reviewed. It found the Galaxy S7 and the Galaxy S7 edge to have excellent battery life, great cameras, super-fast processors, and very high-resolution displays. The inclusion of water resistance and microSD card slot was praised as well, and they became one of the reasons that put the devices on top of smartphone rankings.
Mike Gikas, the senior editor of Consumer Reports, wrote, “These new models aren't just Samsung's best smartphones, but, perhaps, the best smartphones“. The test goes on to show that getting the basics right (like camera quality and battery life) is the most important thing even though brands continue to add niche features like fingerprint sensors and VR compatibility.
