Samsung Galaxy S7 Release Date Details: Preorders For 2016 Flag Available On Launch Day With Free Gear VR

Samsung will be aiming to get consumers to purchase the Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 Edge as soon as possible, if recent reports are to be believed. The 2016 flagship smartphones will be available for preorder shortly after they are announced on Feb. 21, according to Dutch tech blog Android World .

The blog claims these details are specific to the Galaxy S7 launch in the Netherlands; however, consumers have seen Samsung stage its preorders in this fashion before. When the Samsung Galaxy Note 5 and Galaxy S6 Edge+ were announced in August 2015 , the smartphones were available for preorder in the U.S. just hours after they were unveiled. This would lead us to believe the Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 Edge will also be available for preorder on Launch day in the U.S. and other major markets.

Samsung Galaxy S7 preorders will also come with a free Gear VR headset in tow, according to Android World. While these details cannot be confirmed, it is common for Samsung to include some kind of promotion for the initial launch of new devices.

Recent reports indicate the Galaxy S7 will be priced similarly to the Galaxy S6 when it launched last year. The smartphone may sell for $650 and $700, while the Galaxy S7 Edge may sell for between $750 and $800, according to Slash Gear .

The Samsung Galaxy S6 is also starting to see price cuts at vendors like Amazon , which could be a telltale sign that the Galaxy S7 release date is imminent.

HTC 10 vs Samsung Galaxy S7 / Edge vs LG G5

This year, Samsung and LG were first out of the gate with their respective flagship offerings being showcased back during MWC 2016, and while HTC was a little late to the party, we now have all three high-end offerings to choose from.

The Samsung Galaxy Note7 (S820) Review

This year has been difficult for smartphones, which is a bit of a paradox when you consider just how much better things have gotten compared to last year. With Snapdragon 820, 650, 652, and 625 we've finally moved past the shadow of the Snapdragon 810, 808, and 617/615. While there were Android devices that shipped with the Exynos 7420, they were often paired with a modem that was not necessarily the most power efficient. Despite all of this, there seems to be a general disappointment with smartphones. People are increasingly finding it hard to justify phones like the HTC 10 or Galaxy S7 with competition from OnePlus, Xiaomi, and even Apple with their iPhone SE. In this context the Galaxy Note7 brings much of the flavor of the Galaxy S7 edge, but blends it with the S-Pen of the Note line and a few new features like the iris scanner. If you were paying attention to the industry with the launch of the Galaxy S6 and Galaxy Note5, it's very much more of the same rather than the m
