Samsung has launched its flagship smartphones from the Samsung Galaxy S4 during the MWC event and it is likely that the Korean tech giant would not deviate from its pattern. The Samsung Galaxy S6 and the Galaxy S6 Edge were launched in March this year during the MWC 2015 but they both made it into the market a month later.
It is likely that the Samsung Galaxy S7 will be launched late in February but will make it to the retail markets late in March or in April to complete the one-year market cycle of its predecessor flagship smartphones.
Given how pricey the Samsung Galaxy S6 and the Galaxy S6 Edge came out when they were launched in March, it is expected that the Galaxy S7 will be pricier, making it one of the most expensive smartphones in the market by next year.
Keen observers are projecting Samsung to release the Samsung Galaxy S7 on the retail markets either April 8 or April 15 because the Korean tech company has become so used to launching its flagship smartphone to the market on a Friday.
While the specifications and features of the Samsung Galaxy S7 going around the internet these days are merely speculations, most of them are consistent with rumors that the flagship will feature a USB Type C port, that is similar to the ones introduced by Apple on its latest laptop line – the MacBook.
