Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge:
* Better glass protection
* Top of the line Exynos chipset
* Higher RAM
* More storage options
* Brigher f/1.7 aperture for both cameras
* Fast charging
* Heart rate sensor
* Up to date Android 6.0
Sony Xperia Z5 Premium:
* Denser, 4K display
* Higher megapixel count
So far, the new Galaxy flagship has the ‘edge’ over the Z5 Premium except for the its best in class 4K display and a bigger, more detailed camera sensor. Maybe Sony will soon release an upgraded version that will surpass the S7 edge on paper? Only the Japanese brand can tell, and we’ll be waiting.
