[h1]5.7-inch Galaxy S7 caught in a benchmark rocking Snapdragon 820[/h1]

Samsung  Android  Rumors

gsmarena_002.jpg

Just yesterday we saw an unknown Samsung device getting benchmarked sporting an Exynos 8890 chipset. The device in question was codenamed Lucky. According to a new report, this is in fact the codename for the Galaxy S7. Since 7 is considered a lucky number in many cultures, it's pretty obvious why Samsung chose to name its next flagship "Project Lucky" while it's in development.

In an interesting twist, the Lucky was caught in another benchmark database today, this time rocking Qualcomm's Snapdragon 820 SoC. This is no surprise, as there have been rumors claiming Samsung is testing  Qualcomm's next top of the line chip and hasn't yet decided whether to use it or not. Now it seems likely that the S820 will power at least certain versions of the Galaxy S7, probably the ones destined for the US (echoing what's been going on for most of the Galaxy S line's existence, except with the S6  this year).

The prototype that went through the AnTuTu benchmark today came with a 5.7-inch QHD touchscreen, a 16 MP rear camera, a 5 MP front snapper, 4GB of RAM, and 64GB of internal storage. It ran Android 5.1.1 Lollipop at the time.

So this is the bigger of the two rumored iterations for Samsung's next flagship. Qualcomm's chipset managed to beat out the Exynos 7420 as well as the Snapdragon 810 in single-threaded runs and in the 3D test. However, overall the Exynos 7420 still managed to come out on top of both of Qualcomm's contenders. Obviously though the Snapdragon 820 is still in development, so don't take these results too seriously yet. Just for fun, let's mention that Lucky's AnTuTu score was 65,775.

The final version of the Galaxy S7 may have a 20 MP ISOCELL camera instead of the 16 MP unit the prototype boasts. The S7 should keep the ultrafast UFS 2.0 storage of its predecessor, but Samsung is working on getting that to work with microSD cards. Currently the UFS 2.0 memory controller isn't compatible with expandable storage. Yet the Korean company might fix that by the time the S7 arrives on the market. It's definitely not a given, though, so don't get your hopes up that the Galaxy S7 will have microSD card support.

Will do.

Does anyone know if on Moto X's you can swap the positions of the "back" button with the "tabs" button, to put the back arrow on the right side of the screen?

i swear i saw it on a review video but i can't find the video now and can't find a way to do it.  Would be much more convenient

use it heavy n report back. Inquiring minds want to know.
off the bat i notice a couple things i miss coming from the Note 4. 

1: one handed mode for the keyboard that shifts it to one side. Used this 100% of the time on my Note

2: Numbers being their own keys at the top of the keyboard, rather than having to long press the top letters to get numbers.

maybe theres a keyboard app i can get that can provide me with these things

Not with stock as far as I know.

And congrats and enjoy, let us know how the battery treats you.

I really feel like after my 14 Moto X, I can't live without Moto Action/Display, it's so damn convenient to have notifications pulse on screen or the screen automatically show notifications and the time if you wave your hand or pull it from your pocket. Or it automatically knowing if you're driving and the always on Moto/Google voice actions.

Use Swiftkey for the dedicated number row and you can also use it to resize your keyboard and move it to one side

Definitely can customize the buttons on the OP2
 
i thought the pure has a good camera? or does it lack in comparison to the G4?

The Pure has a good camera but low light performance pales in comparison to the G4. The G4 camera is better by a slim margin.

thanks. will the pure get tmo wifi calling? I swear they've been saying it's coming soon to phones like the nexus 6 but so far haven't heard anything new lately about it.
 
Came home to OPT delivery and all I have to say us don't believe all the negativity out there. If they could just get their launches together OP would be a great company. Just as many issues out of the box as my OPO, 0. finger print scanner is solid and responsive. Nothing but praise for their latest device.

I'm having an issue with play services on my HTC one.

I keep getting notified to update play services, I press update a day it takes me to the play store but my only options are deactivate or open. Update isn't a choice.

I cleared cache in app settings and have restarted the phone but I still keep getting the notification.

Does anyone know what's going on?
 
af1 1982 af1 1982 let us know how that OP2 is, I'm genuinely curious

Will do. Like home above said, zero issues thus far out the box. Super smooth. Fingerprint sensor is very responsive. Screen gestures are dope.

Of course i just got this so I'll have to post a bigger review later on. But 100% satisfied
 
I'm all for the One Plus to succeed. A good/great phone at that price range is a good thing for consumers.

I don't particularly like their invite system and talking about their phone being flagship killers and future proof, but missing something like NFC is just dumb and putting their foot in their mouth.
 
Yeah, that's where a lot of the hate comes from I think.. that flagship killer slogan is doing more harm than good
