The Samsung Galaxy S7 scored two returns. That of a slot for a microSD card, and that of the seal. In the second, there is even the improvement since the last South Korean flagship meets IP68, IP67 certification against one for the Galaxy S5. In theory, it can withstand dust and immersion in 1.5 meters of water for 30 minutes. The laboratory 01net.com had also tested this feature by offering the device a small meeting of diving. An event in which he had resisted perfectly. As every year, Samsung launched a more robust variation of the smartphone, for better impact resistance. Always IP68 certified, the Samsung Galaxy S7 Active however failed a leak test
In the US, consumer association Consumer Reports. – Equivalent of the UFC-Que Choisir – dived the device for 30 minutes in a basin whose pressurization was equivalent to that found in 1.5 meter deep. But at the end of the operation, the Active S7′s screen showed a cloud of green lines and no longer met the demands touch. Small bubbles were also visible on the lenses of the cameras on the front and back.
To verify that it was not a failed model, Consumer Reports has conducted the same test on another Samsung Galaxy S7 Active. With the key to a new failure. This time the screen worked intermittently. The humidity was still present at photo sensors, and the water is infiltrated into the same location dedicated to the SIM card. In both cases, smartphones were permanently out of operation. Consumer Reports said that the smartphone has been excellent in all other tests, which is not surprising when you know the original version.
Meanwhile, Samsung is still in his boots right in stating that Galaxy S7 Active conforms to IP68 and is confined to the hypothesis of a faulty model. Sold $ 800 in the US, the smartphone has not been announced for France.
