      Will the Samsung Galaxy S7 still work in 2022?
      pedro.cole
      over 1 year ago
      No. While the Galaxy S7's hardware is great, its software isn't expected to be updated for much longer. Instead, you should opt for the Galaxy S8 with its updated specs, design, and improved software experience.

      The company now provides the best software support of any Android OEM. Many devices now receive four Android OS upgrades and five years of security updates. The Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S8 are almost six years old at this point.

      What is secret mode Galaxy S7?
      ashley
      over 1 year ago
      You want to keep your information safe and may even want to keep it a secret. That's where Samsung's Private mode comes in. By enabling Private mode, you can lock sensitive data, so that authentication is required to access that information (files, photos, video, etc.) in a finite number of Samsung apps.

      A Great Phone in its Day, but Don't Buy One in 2022. In 2016, the Samsung Galaxy S7 was as good as phones got. In 2022, it's been superseded many times – there's the S10, S20, and even Note 20 now. If you're shopping for a new phone, getting a more recent version may be best.
