Gần đây Galaxy s7 active đã xuất hiện nhiều hơn ở việt nam và cũng đã có nhiều anh em đang sở hữu chiếc điện thoại nồi đồng cối đá này. Nhưng những trải nghiệm khi sử dụng em nó, kinh nghiệm chưa thấy có anh em nào chia sẻ. Hôm nay mình lập topic này mong muốn được giao lưu với anh em. Có kinh nghiệm gì quí báu xin đừng ngần ngại nhé! Cập nhật:
S7 active được Samsung ra mắt khoảng 3 tháng sau chiếc S7 và chỉ dành riêng cho nhà mạng AT&T. Các bạn sẽ tìm thấy ở trên chiếc S7 nồi đồng cối đá này một thiết kế đảm bảo cho nó khả năng chịu được những môi trường khắc nghiệt, một kiểu dáng hầm hố và chắc chắn là một màu sắc quân đội tuyệt đẹp nữa. Đừng quên rằng S7 active có pin 4000mAh, lớn hơn so với viên pin 3000mAh trên S7. Thiết kế của S7 active  Mục đích mà Samsung cho ra dòng active là muốn giúp người dùng có một chiếc máy bền bỉ, có thể hoạt động được ở những môi trường khắc nghiệt mà hầu hết những smartphone thông thường không thể thích ứng. Cũng vì được trang bị ‘lớp giáp’ đó cho nên S7 active to hơn một chút về kích thước tổng thể so với S7. Khi cầm trên tay sẽ thấy máy dày hơn, cộm tay hơn. Ngoài tiêu chuẩn IP68 ra thì S7 active còn có chứng chỉ của quân đội Mỹ đảm bảo rằng nó có thể hoạt động ở những môi trường rất khắc nghiệt. This week Samsung pulled a familiar trick: it released an rugged ‘Active’ version of its flagship Galaxy smartphone. But the Galaxy S7 Active is much more than just tough as it has some major upgrades which arguably make it a better phone than the Galaxy S7.Let’s break them down... Design - Style Vs Practicality The most obvious difference between these phones is physical. Whereas the Galaxy S7 is a stylish, svelte glass and aluminium beauty, the Galaxy S7 Active is a rubber clad beast:

Image credit: Samsung Yes the Galaxy S7 Active weighs 20% more than the Galaxy S7, it’s thicker and looks like it is permanently wearing a thick protective case. But this is the point as the Galaxy S7 Active is built to withstand drops and its display has a particularly special quality (more next). Like the Galaxy S7, the Galaxy S7 Active is IP68 certified making it dust proof and water resistant in over 1.5m of water for up to 30 minutes. It’s also MIL-STD-810G certified which means it has no problem with salt, humidity, rain, vibration, solar radiation and is thermal shock resistant. Display - The Phone You Can Drop On paper the Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 Active displays look identical, but there’s a key differentiator:
You got it. While the Galaxy S7’s Gorilla Glass 4 does its best to withstand drops, the Galaxy S7 Active has additional shatter resistance which means - should it drop and break - any crack will be isolated and won’t spread across the phone. It’s the difference between a ruined phone and one you can keep using. Aside from this, the Galaxy S7 Active is identical to the Galaxy S7. This is a very good thing as Samsung smartphone displays are currently the benchmark for the rest of the industry. Performance - Power Packed And Smart The Galaxy S7 Active is also no slouch because it packs identical internals to the lighting quick Galaxy S7:
The Snapdragon 820 is standard in most premium smartphones now (at least until the Galaxy Note 6) but this is for a reason: it’s a brilliant performer which doesn’t suffer the same thermal throttling issues as 2015’s Snapdragon 810 while delivering 30% and 64% more CPU and GPU speed respectively. That said the Galaxy S7 Active won’t get a Exynos variant (Samsung’s own chipset brand) which has been shown to be even quicker and also consume less power. Exynos powered Galaxy S7’s are currently only available outside America and right now the Galaxy S7 Active is US-only (though that could change). The Galaxy S7 Active has a fingerprint reader making it the first Active model to do so. Image...

Cameras - Samsung Sets The Pace In 2015 Samsung took the smartphone camera crown off Apple with the Galaxy S6 and it has extended its lead with the Galaxy S7. And the Galaxy S7 Active keeps the same cameras:
My Galaxy S7 review breaks down its performance in detail, but the key takeaways are its class leading near-instantaneous focus time and superb low light performance. If the camera is important to you, then right now the Galaxy S7 range is the best available. Despite it's huge girth the Galaxy S7 Active has the same superb camera as the Galaxy S7. Image... [+] credit: Samsung But the Galaxy S7 Active does pack one small benefit over the standard Galaxy S7: its extra thickness means the camera module is swallowed up and the bump on the rear is slightly less noticeable. Battery Life - The Big Differentiator Now here is where things get interesting. Samsung promotes the Galaxy S7 Active as the most practical phone you can buy and this shines through with a huge differentiator between the two models:
Yes, the Galaxy S7 Active’s battery is one third larger than the Galaxy S7 and Samsung claims this will deliver true all day battery life, even with heavy use. In fact AT&T claims you’ll get a massive 32 hours of talk time from a single charge. Speaking of charging, despite its rugged exterior, the Galaxy S7 Active also supports wireless charging as well as fast charging. So this is a phone with serious stamina and great flexibility. The Galaxy S7 is simply too thin to match the huge battery in the Galaxy S7 Active. Image credit:... [+] Samsung Storage And Price - Actively Expensive As this point you might be sold on the Galaxy S7 Active, but there’s one significant downside of all its extra durability and stamina, cost:
That $100 premium might prove prohibitive for some, especially as it follows the Galaxy S7 in offering just 32GB of native storage. There is a microSD card which means you can pack out the memory, but a selection of 64/128/256GB options really should be available given Samsung leads the way in development of smartphone storage (which it mostly sells to Apple). Bottom Line - The Best Just Got Better While the Galaxy S7 Active doesn’t come cheap, for those not obsessed about looks it is probably the best Galaxy smartphone you can buy right now. It is far more durable than the standard Galaxy S7, lasts longer on a charge and yet packs the same superb performance and class leading camera. If you want a rugged, powerful, long lasting smartphone that’s great at photography the Galaxy S7 Active stands head and shoulders above the pack. |
