Samsung 2

As we rapidly approach Mobile World Congress the rumour train has a full head of steam up and we’re sure to hear more and more over the coming 8 weeks or so. This time its another rumour around the expected announcement of the Samsung Galaxy S7.

The latest is that the Galaxy S7 will sport an iris scanner. This is far from being a ‘new’ rumour since there were murmurs of the Galaxy S5 having the same feature nearly 2 years ago. Unfortunately for the rumour, there’s little substance to it; despite wide reporting in the Wall Street Journal and elsewhere, there’s no detail on exactly where the retina scanner is, how it will function, any schematics or anything. In short, it’s an empty rumour that doesn’t seem to be grounded in anything, but who knows. Maybe it will have an iris scanner, but it just doesn’t seem likely in a realm where manufacturers struggle to get even basic photography right.

On top of this latest rumour, there’ve been others too, including the Galaxy S7 coming in 2 screen sizes, a pressure sensitive display & quick charge port and rumours of the phone already being tested by AT&T in the USA the picture of what we should expect is getting clearer by the day.

What would you like to see from the Galaxy S7 to make it a ‘must have’ for you?
