Samsung’s next flagship phone is still a few months away, but the Korean company has released another morsel to keep us interested. The Galaxy S7 Active is a ruggedised version of the Galaxy S7, complete with an armoured exoskeleton and a massive battery. It’s coming soon, so let’s take a look.<\/p>\n
The most important part of any smartphone is its screen, and for the Galaxy S7 Active that means a shatter-resistant 5.1-inch display. This is wrapped in a rugged exterior, designed to be both drop- and water-resistant. The phone’s battery has also been upgraded to suit long expeditions away from a power socket, with the normal 3000mAh battery jumping to a mighty 4000mAh. That should see you through two days comfortably, and could stretch to three if you’re careful.<\/p>\n
There’s also an extra button on the exterior, which you can set to open any app you want. You can also set up different shortcuts for a long press or a double tap, extending its usability further.<\/p>\n

Otherwise, the Galaxy S7 Active retains the raw power of its more straight-laced cousin. Inside you’ll find a Snapdragon 820 processor (as with other American versions of the S7), 4GB of RAM, 32GB of internal storage plus a Micro SD card slot, a fingerprint reader, a 12-megapixel rear camera and a 5-megapixel selfie cam.<\/p>\n
So far, the Galaxy S7 Active has only been announced for American mobile operator AT&T, but you could always import one if you really wanted to. It’s scheduled to go on sale on June 10th, where it’ll be available on contract for $26.50 (\u00a318) per month on the ‘Next’ plan, which totals about $800 (\u00a3550) over the 24 month period. The colour options are camouflage green, black and gold.<\/p>\n
