The latest high-end smartphones from Samsung, the Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge, unveiled last week at the Mobile World Congress, are well trimmed compete in terms of technical features. A feature missing even though the call. Both new devices are actually USB port without Type-C promised to become the new standard in terms of connectivity. In its place, the manufacturer retained the traditional microUSB. Available on new LG smartphones like the G5 or OnePlus 2 for example, USB Type-C has yet include the advantage of being reversible (no need to find the right direction to insert the cable) and offer recharge faster.
But this absence on the new Samsung terminals is not intended to lead to consumer harm. On the contrary. Shoneel Kolhatkar, product manager at Samsung, said the main reasons for this decision. In an interview with the specialized Android Headlines site, he initially indicated that it is partly related to virtual reality helmet Gear VR of the firm. The accessory is actually connects to mobile phones microUSB. Samsung wanted to “make sure those who bought the helmet there six months are not disappointed.” The company does not force them to buy adapters or new chargers, said the official.
This standard is also not yet widespread in the market, he says again . Too few peripherals and accessories are now able to manage this new connection. In addition, a quick charging function has already been implemented on the Galaxy S7, as well as its predecessor, the Galaxy S6.
