Hey, what's up guys? I'm Steve of Kult of Mac and today
0:02
I'm going to be unboxing the brand new Galaxy S7 the main rival to the iPhone 6s, so let's get started
0:22
So the S7 has literally just got dropped off at my house as you can see we've got the 32 gigabytes gold edition
0:30
And if we turn over to the back You see it's got 4g LTE 64-bit octa-core processor
0:36
This is the European one so has got the Exynos Samsung processor the ones in North America have got the snapdragon 820 processor and
0:46
Very slightly different on the geek benchmarks as I can see online, but with day-to-day use it's not any much different
0:51
It's got a quad HD 5.1 inch AMOLED display with 577 pixels per inch so as you see European model
1:00
Let's go ahead and open this up Very nice little mechanism there magnetic
1:07
So we can lift the phone out here Let's just pop that to the side for a second and see what else we get in the box
1:16
This is actually the first time I've ever unboxed a Samsung product I
1:22
Got a on-the-go USB connector so you can transfer content That's pretty handy some other guides in here quick start guide and a warranty card
1:31
We've got the little sim tool here as well Also in the box we have got oh the whole tray comes out
1:38
Got a micro USB cable here to charge it along with a European adapter
1:43
Or I should say British adapter force. I've got our quick USB transfer tool
1:49
And some headphones it looks like if I can get them out of the box
1:58
With some different rubber earpieces, I mean they seem a little bit cheap
2:02
I'll give them a try in a bit and let's take a look at the phone itself as I mentioned
2:07
I've got the 32 gigabyte gold version wasn't too sure about the gold, but it looks pretty nice. Oh
2:14
Wow, that really is shiny So this is 7.9 millimeters thick is slightly thicker than the iPhone 6s
2:21
But of course, you've got a 3000 milliamp hour battery. Whereas the iPhone 6s you've got a
2:26
1715 milliamp battery so it is almost double the battery size of the iPhone 6s
2:33
So this should last you in theory double the amount of time But we'll take a full look at that for our review, which will be online tomorrow
2:40
So on the front of the device, we have a 5 megapixel camera and on the rear
2:44
We've got a 12 megapixel camera. Obviously the s6 had 16 megapixels
2:49
But the pixels from the s7 are double the size So overall it is a better camera, even though it sounds like less so on the left hand side
2:57
We've got the volume buttons on the right. I'm gonna guess that's the lock key on the front of the device
3:02
It's got the the fingerprint scanner there. So let's go ahead and boot this baby up
3:08
So as I mentioned before it's got a quad HD 5.1 inch AMOLED display
3:12
Also as I mentioned earlier, I've got the 32 gigabyte version here But it has got a micro SD slot in the SIM card tray, which you can then upgrade up to 200 gig
3:22
So essentially you've got a 232 gig phone, which is actually bigger than my MacBook Pro's hard drive, which is pretty crazy
3:31
I can see already that this is quite fingerprint prone I think the iPhone isn't quite this bad, but obviously this is a really shiny metallic finish
3:39
Wow, that screen is really nice So that is it for the unboxing
3:44
I'm gonna go ahead and set everything up on here and then I'm going to use this as my phone for the next week
3:49
as my daily driver So all the pictures I tweet, all the pictures I put on Instagram, they'll all be from this. So make sure to follow me
3:57
It's stevesmith10 if you want to. I've never used a Samsung or Android device as a daily driver
4:03
So I'll be uploading a video next week After a full week of use
4:07
Letting you know what I like, what I dislike and just giving you an overview of my experiences
4:12
