Imagine Nick Fury and James Bond and you’ll get an idea about how the Galaxy S7 Active compares to its former, fancier brother. So what are this tougher, stronger smartphone’s secret weapons? #mobilemagic
For one, it’s extremely resistant. It can take some pretty hard falls without damage to the display or overall functionality. Then, it has a huge battery for its size: 4,000 mAh, a full 1,000 mAh more than the Galaxy S7! This calls for a rugged body, heavier and thicker than its sleeker brother: 9.9 mm thick and 185 grams of weight. Of course, you get waterproofing on this device, with an IP68-rating that allows submersion up to 5 feet of water.
Unfortunately, while the home button looks exactly like the one used on Galaxy S7, the recent and back keys can be accessed via physical buttons. The software and general specs are similar to the ones on Galaxy S7, with one difference: there’s an Activity Zone that triggers all you need to go for hiking or camping: weather, temperature, barometer, compass, flashlight, stopwatch, and S Health data.
You’ll be able to buy the Galaxy S7 Active just from AT&T, at around $800 without taxes and additional fees.
