Summary of Advantages

Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge:

  • Quad HD resolution
  • Twice the RAM at 4GB
  • Expandable memory up to 200GB
  • Dual SIM
  • Fast Wireless Charging
  • Heart-Rate Sensor
  • IP68 rating
  • Bigger battery capacity

Apple iPhone 6S:

  • Up to 128GB  internal storage
  • Better connectivity
  • More color options

Just like in our previous comparison of their smaller variants, there are aspects (like processor, front and rear cameras) that are subjective and would be needed to test in real-life usage, the Galaxy S7 Edge proved to have beefier specs than the iPhone 6S Plus when it comes to components alone. Through this comparison, we also see that this 2016 flagship now has more bells-and-whistles to offer its users compared to the 2015 flagship from Apple.

Stay tuned to see how well the Galaxy S7 Edge would perform when we get ourselves a unit to review.
