Pre-order your Galaxy S7 edge or S7 before February 29, 2016 on www.samsung.com

The S7 (32GB) is for Dh2,399, while the S7 Edge (32GB) is for Dh2,799.

The Korean electronics giant unveiled its latest Galaxy S7 flagship smartphones with most advanced and favourite features.

The new Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 Edge Android devices build on the design of previous Galaxy S6 versions but included IP68 waterproofing and a microSD card slot.

Both the devices will be available in most of the markets globally from next month and phone lovers in select markets will get Samsung Gear VR for free on pre-ordering.

The Galaxy S7 has a flat 5.1-inch screen but a curved glass back. The larger Galaxy S7 Edge has a 5.5-inch screen that is curved at the left and right-hand edges and has minimal bezels either side of the screen making it one of the most narrow phablets available in the market.

The devices run the latest version of Android 6.0 Marshmallow.

The phones also have a new, slimmer 12-megapixel camera designed with low-light photography in mind. It uses larger 1.4um pixels and a lens with an f-stop of 1.7 to let 25 per cent more light into the sensor, as well as a very fast autofocus system, to help prevent grainy or blurred photos.

The Korean company also launched a 360-degree camera, the Gear 360, which resembles a small ball only slightly bigger than a golf ball. It has two 180-degree fish-eye lenses, can be remotely controlled by a Samsung phone and can stream video or 30-megapixel photos in real time.
