Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge design and build quality
The biggest news about the Galaxy S7 Edge is its size. It's bigger than the S6 Edge; its screen is 5.5 inches compared with 5.1 inches, but it still feels surprisingly compact. The beauty of the S6 Edge is still present in this newer phone, and its polished finish gives it a metallic luster similar to S6 Edge+.
The Galaxy S7 Edge is made of aluminum, covered with Gorilla Glass 4 on front and back.
