Samsung Galaxy S7 In-Store POS Banners Tease Early Access For Preorder Customers
Samsung Galaxy S7 In-Store POS Banners Tease Early Access For Preorder Customers -
The Samsung Galaxy S7 unveiling is just around the corner and
in-store ads are already popping up, promising early access for preorder
customers.
Samsung will take the wraps off its latest and greatest flagships on
Feb. 21 ahead of the Mobile World Congress 2016, where it will introduce
its new Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 edge powerhouses.
Retailers and carriers are gearing up for the big launch and
preparing their offers, and photos of an in-store point-of-sale (POS)
display have now surfaced online, showing the first enticing offer.
As SamMobile reports,
the image above is of a POS display spotted in a Three carrier store in
the UK. Based on this ad, which was probably not supposed to hit the
Web just yet, Three is teasing the "Next Big Thing" along with a promise
that preorder customers will get the handset three days early.
If the rumored March 11 release
date proves to be accurate, it means that customers who preorder the
handset from Three should get their device on March 8. Preorders should
go live on the same day as the unveiling, on Feb. 21.
SamMobile further notes that EE received the same banner to promote
the Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 edge, according to its tipster. This
indicates that the three-day early-bird offer will be available to EE
preorders as well.
Another leak, meanwhile, consists of a brochure that reveals the
specifications of the next Galaxy smartphone powerhouses. The brochure
in question lists the Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 edge with 5.1- and
5.5-inch displays, respectively, both sporting a QHD resolution of 2,560
x 1,440 pixels.
The smartphones will further come with Qualcomm Snapdragon 820
processors, 4 GB of LPDDR4 RAM, microSD support, and similar designs to
their predecessors. The Galaxy S7 should feature a 3,000 mAh battery,
while the sleek Galaxy S7 edge will pack a more powerful 3,600 mAh unit.
The handsets will also be waterproof, as Samsung recently confirmed in a promo video from its Indonesian branch.
It also seems that Samsung is taking a page out of Apple's playbook
and equipping its new flagships with pressure-sensitive displays. The
leaked brochure also confirmed the previously rumored March 11 release
date, which should apply to both the United States and Europe. Source: Techtimes
