The GSM Association declared the Samsung Galaxy S7 edge as the best smartphone in the mobile phones and devices category during the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona .
The GSM Association is a trade body that represents the interests of mobile network operators worldwide and consists of 800 mobile network operators as well as another 300 companies in the sector.
The vice president of Samsung, Junho Park, said emphatically « It is an honor for us that you recognized the craftsmanship, design, and innovation of the Galaxy S7 edge.» He continued by stating that this award is proof of their constant pursuit of excellence while they continue to exceed the expectations of their consumers through revolutionary mobile technology.
The other nominees for the Best Smartphone award were Apple's iPhone 7 Plus , Google's Pixel XL , Huawei's P9 and Motorola's Moto Z.
We should note that last year's scores for the camera quality measurements and the image lens placed the main camera of the Galaxy S7 edge in third place alongside the HTC 10 and Xperia X Performance. The Galaxy S7 edge has also received an award for its refined design, its advanced camera, and its excellent performance.
The award marks one year since the release of the Galaxy S7 Edge in February of last year, and especially after the Galaxy Note 7 scandal, Samsung relied heavily on its new flagship.
The Galaxy S7 Edge remains a powerful smartphone with 4 GB of RAM, powered by an octa‑core Snapdragon 820 SoC processor. Soon its new flagship, the Galaxy S8+ and Galaxy S8, are expected to be announced on March 29.
