Samsung Galaxy S7 active
Samsung and AT&T just unveiled the
carrier-exclusive Galaxy S7 active. The rugged version of the Galaxy S7 keeps
the flagship's internals, but under a robust shell, that's not afraid of the
elements.
The Galaxy S7 active touts a Snapdragon
820 chipset, 4 GB of RAM and 32 GB of expandable storage. The 5.1" QHD
display is shatter-resistant thanks to an added layer of polycarbonate and the
added bulk in the phone's design is in parts thanks to the 4,000 mAh battery
inside.
The Galaxy S7 active also has a
fingerprint scanner in the home button - a first for the tough sub-family of
devices.
AT&T will launch the Galaxy S7
active sales on June 10 with monthly prices similar to the Galaxy S7 Edge's. If
you choose the carrier's Next plan, the phone will cost you US$ 26.50/month, while
the Next Every Year plan will bump the price to US$ 33.13/month. You can choose
from three available colors: Sandy Gold, Camo Green and Titanium Gray. SIM-free
prices are yet to be announced.
