Most of our readers won't mind a Galaxy S7 that looks like its predecessor (poll results)
Churning valuable information at full speed, the Galaxy S7 rumor mill has so far yielded some pretty substantial intel relating to Samsung's flagship refresh. Due for announcement in just three weeks time or so from now, the Galaxy S7 is undoubtedly the most hotly anticipated reveal of the first quarter.
That aforementioned intel, however, specifically the latest bits courtesy of leakster extraordinaire, evleaks, points to a largely unchanged exterior for the South Korean company's next big thing. Indeed, if the seemingly official renders released by the insider are to be believed, the Galaxy S7 will bear a very close resemblance to its predecessor, the Galaxy S6. Given how much of a step forward the S6 was when compared to the plasticky S5, however, we didn't think that people will complain.
We were right, at least for the most part. According to the results of our yesterday poll asking you whether sticking to the Galaxy S6 design philosophy is a mistake, almost 60% answered 'No'. That leaves us with 40% of readers who either dislike the style, or think Samsung should go for something even bolder—or at least new. While unanimity is obviously out of the question here, that's still 6 out of every 10 of our readers that appreciate Samsung's work. Not too bad!
