That Galaxy S7
screen also has a cool new always-on feature. The feature is a low power screen
mode that activates when the phone is put to sleep. It offers peek views of
incoming notifications and alerts from certain services, meaning you can check
who's messaged you without having to fully power up the display.
However, we felt
that this always-on feature was a little half-baked, with limited functionality
and poor app support. It's a nice idea, but it isn't truly useful yet.
The Galaxy S7's
screen also doesn't feature a competitor to Apple’s 3D Touch tech. 3D
Touch is a nifty feature that lets the iPhone's screen detect varying amounts
of pressure. It can be used to enact a variety of tasks, like previewing emails
and websites. For iPhone 6S owners familiar with 3D Touch, the lack of an
equivalent feature on the Galaxy S7 could be a sticking point.
