The ultimate way to test a new phone? Travel with it.
When you're seeing sights and losing yourself to the moment, there's no
room to tolerate a poor camera or buggy software, slow speed or short
battery life. If there's a flaw, you'll find it.
So I
tested the Samsung Galaxy S7 in London and Berlin, while colleagues also
took it for a spin in San Francisco and Sydney. And you know what? It
did great. Better than great. In fact, the S7 was an awesome phone that
never cracked under the pressure of being the only way I take pictures
and navigate completely unfamiliar terrain, all while keeping battery
life going during long days out.
Straight up: the Galaxy S7 is the best all-around phone out today. It's superior to the excellent Google Nexus 6P, Apple iPhone 6S, LG G5 and HTC 10. In fact, the only phone that surpasses it is its own fraternal twin, the larger, curvy-screen S7 Edge,
which is technically my top pick -- but only if you're willing to
splurge. Sure, there are some potentially worthy rivals out beyond the
horizon -- the iPhone 7, the next Nexus model, and the Galaxy Note 6. But none of them will likely be on the market for months to come. So, for now, the Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge remain the best phones money can buy.
Here's what I found (along with fellow S7-testers) while
using the S7 around Europe. You can also scroll to the end for a specs
