Samsung Galaxy S7 Asiana
Samsung has launched a new variant of
its Galaxy S7 flagship in South Korea. Dubbed Galaxy S7 Asiana, the device is
aimed at customers of the Asian country's second largest airline company Asiana
Airlines.
So, what's new in the S7 Asiana? Well,
it's exactly same as the standard S7 in terms of specs. However, there are some
changes on the software side. For example, it's a Knox-customized version
that's tweaked for better in-flight usage.
In addition, the device features an
Asiana Airlines-themed booting screen, as well as comes pre-loaded with an app
that makes it easy for you to book and view your Asiana flight tickets. Asiana
customers with 50,000 mileage points can purchase the phone at discounted rates
from the airline's official website - you'll also get a free wireless charger
and 32 GB microSD card with the handset.
As for the service, Samsung has
partnered with SK Telecom to take care of that aspect. "We will continue
to offer [the S7 to] both regular consumers and, through our Knox solution, our
enterprise clients as well," a Samsung spokesman said.
