Adoptable storage not featured in LG G5 and Samsung Galaxy S7

These new Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge features will make upgrading from a Galaxy S5 much easier thanks to the inclusion of some of your favorite features and options.

Apple and Samsung phones, which have been looking more and more alike over the past few years, are much closer to virtual twins with Samsung's latest Galaxy S7. The Galaxy S7 Edge has "Always-on Display" feature.

Along with pass through sync and quick charge capabilities, the design of the juice pack® line also maintains the functionality of the S7 and S7 edge with pass through buttons. The full retail price of Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge smartphones are $672 and $780 with US Cellular. The GS7 phones don't use Android's adoptable storage, which can make external storage indistinguishable from internal storage, but you can put things like photos and videos on the card, and reserve the internal portion for your smartphone apps and Gear VR games.

MicroSD slot: Again, can't knock Samsung for the lack of expandable storage this year. The main S7 model is staying constant at 5.1 inches.

Android Central after playing with the LG G5 at MWC claimed that it didn't support adoptable storage; though the company has not detailed any reason to miss out the feature.

Any other phone except the Samsung Galaxy S7 that is, which is shipping in two configurations.

The display technology used by each is different, with Samsung favouring Super AMOLED, while the LG G5 uses IPS LCD.

At a separate event on Monday (Feb. 22), Samsung showed off its new flagship showroom (where you can't actually buy any Samsung products) in the fashionable Meatpacking district in NY. EXTRAS Neither the iPhone nor the S7 phone lets you replace the battery with a spare.

As the Samsung Galaxy S7 will release on March 11 we know that some readers are trying to decide whether to upgrade from the S6, and the video that we've embedded below this article gives some interesting insight on this.

The free Gear VR is being offered on a limited-time basis to UAE residents who pre-order the Galaxy S7 edge or S7 before February 29, 2016, the firm said.

Adoptable Storage also formats and ties the microSD card to a specific smartphone, which Samsung believes could be confusing to users. It will be available for pre-order in mid-March. These freebies will be also through several carriers, Phone Arena reported.

Samsung is building a revolutionary ROLL-UP smartphone

GETTY • US PATENT OFFICE Example of a flexible display, LEFT, and the illustrations filed with the Samsung patent, RIGHT Samsung has been awarded a US patent for a brand-new foldable, rollable display to use across its smartphone and tablet ranges.

However this latest patent, which was published by the United States Patent and Trademark Office, shows the company has bolder ambitions for its curved displays.

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

Why do Android fanboys hate admitting that Samsung copied Apple?

It's impossible to cover the mobile market without diving into the good ol' "iOS vs. Android" debate from time to time. These are the two biggest mobile platforms on the planet, so they're constantly being compared. Likewise, Samsung and Apple are the world's top two smartphone vendors, so their phones are constantly pitted against each other as well. Of course, there's another reason Apple and Samsung are often mentioned in the same breath: after entering the market, Samsung quickly grew to become the top mobile device maker on the planet thanks in large part to Apple. First, Samsung did everything it possibly could to copy Apple's iPhone and iPad. Then, it spent billions upon billions of dollars belittling Apple products in TV, online, and print advertising. Samsung spent years positioning its own devices as the cool alternative to Apple's iPhone, and its efforts paid off big time. Even now, Samsung continues to copy Apple all the time acro
