Hi guys this is Tech Zilla back again i thought i would do a quick video of the new android
Nougat 7.0 on the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge i've been on the beta program since since day 1
i've had 7 updates so far i had one today the 9th of Febuary so i thought i would do
a quick video to show you whats changed and whats new as you can see its on Android Nougat
7.0 from there and its on the Android Security patch level 1st of January 2017 Samsungs really
upped their game when it comes to updates so lets start off with the always on display
whats different there as you can see there it now shows you thee notifications from all
apps not just the Samsung ones which is a nice touch now if i press the power button
and light this up you've got icons here so you can lauch your camera really quick like
that come out of that and you can make a call which im not going to get into lets have a
quick look at how fast the fingerprint sensor is you see how much quicker that is now so
i'll do that again much quicker much quicker so really nicely done there now lets look
at the home screen now if i press on this and come across here and switch this on you've
got wallpapers and themes widgets and screen grid now screen grid you got 4 by 4 4 by 5
or 5 by 5 i'll leave it on 4 by 4 for the time being come out of that you got your widgets
you got your wallpapers and themes lets go into that one real quick the theme store has
changed nicely as well much cleaner looking you can download a theme now and then change
the icons on that theme if you like which is much better this newsfeed thing on the
side im not a fan of it so i switch it off come out of that much more fluid no issues
at all with performance absolutely none at all bring down the notification panel clear
that whats changed here when you get notifications here its like 7.0 like they do with the Pixel
phones and the others it bunches them together and you can expand them and you can reply
directly from the notification delete it from the notification etc much much more handy
especially if your a power user like me now the lay out here look how different that looks
to the previous Samsung devices much cleaner much nicer i can swipe across to this panel
here and swipe across there if i go to this i can do button lay out 3by 3 4 by 3 or 5
by 3 which is what i keep it on if i go to edit i can change how they are laid out obviously
and these are all sub menus so let me switch off Wi Fi for a minute so for example i can
switch on the torch by clicking there and switch it off now if i press the word tourch
underneath i can switch that on i can actually adjust the brightness of the tourch if i want
to do that so very very nice little touches like that so the blue light filter i switch
it on switch it off if i want click onthat switch it on i can adjust how yellow the screen
goes for a night owl like me thats a nice little thing there beautiful and all of them
pretty much do that as well this bar up here this lets you search for anything on your
device i'm not going to do it now you type in what ever and search it you got your brightness
here so i haven't got it on auto brightness for the sake of the video and you can show
control on the top show the brightness of the control above notification panel so you
know you get an idea of how thats done so i'll come out of that now lets go into the
settings first of all look how much nicer that looks beautiful the way thats done beautiful
they have clumped things together under one heading to neaten this whole thing up so anything
to do with connections wifi bluetooth etc is all under connections now look at the icons
much cleaner much nicer sound and vibrations pretty much the same as what we have had before
so like sound quality and effects you have all seen this stuff before come out of that
now whats interesting is what they have changed here is so you can adjust the brightness obviously
bluelight filter i have shown you screen mode you have all seen that before screen resolution
now thats what i like at the moment i've got it on 2K i can go to 1080p or i can even drop
it down to 720p depending if i want to increase performance battery etc so i'll leave it on
2K for the time being screen zoom and font now watch here at the moment i've got the
screen zoom on small if i go to large do you see how that jumps up thats medium and thats
small font size again same sort of thing you get an idea there and tiny i leave that about
there you can change the fonts as well i can download a load more from the Samsung app
store i'll cancel that and come out of this the homescreen you know about easy mode icons
with frames now this is an interesting one look at the playstore logo and the Google
logo they've got this frame around them which gives them the same dimensions and a uniform
look with the stock Samsung apps or icons should i say now when i click icons only see
how the frame disappears so i leave the icon frame on as i prefer that because it looks
nicer it looks much nicer edge screen usual stuff there always on display now lets go
into that real quick layouts they have more layouts now much more functional beautiful
the way they've done that beautiful night clock you all know about status bar screen
time out etc you've all seen that before wallpapers and themes i've shown you advanced features
you've seen all these before i'll scroll thrugh it real quick so you can see how the menus
look different device management i'll show you a couple of those advanced features in
a sec this is a all in one sort of smart manager if you like if you hit optimize now it goes
through a series of checks and closes backgroud apps etc checks for viruses and stuff like
that battery performance mode storage RAM and device security performance mode if i
click on that its on optimized at the moment i'll hit high performance it increases the
screen brightness by 10% and knocks it up into 2K resolution so i#ll leave it on that
foor the time being for you guys applications lockscreen and security not much difference
there so pretty much you've seen the whole look of the menus and so on lets come out
of there now if i double click the home button it launches the camera no if you look at the
camera the whole lay out of the camera much nicer looking scroll to that side for all
the different modes lets go into pro mode so you can see that so you've got here ISO
the usual stuff white balance etc so if i swipe that way i've got the filters so if
any of you guys like uploading your photos you have all the filters there if i swipe
down it will go into selfie camera if i swipe back again it brings it back to the normal
camera so much nicer layout looks beautiful much cleaner look that was double clicking
the home button twice to fast launch the camera if i triple click it it goes into one handed
mode so i'll do that again see that really nice little touches like that very very handy
items on a 5.5 inch display i don't know how much thats worth it but its nice to have the
option there triple click again to come back out and job done other little things so like
here you've got a folder so when you click on it the backgroud goes transparent sort
of frosty blurry transparent look you see that there let me turn the brightness down
a little bit much cleaner look much cleaner so in the app drawer the first thing you notice
which is different is this search for apps now if i say type in GSM no results found
because i don't have any apps that are named that it comes up with available in the Galaxy
app store you can view more in the Galaxy app store and you can view more in the playstore
so if i click on the playstore nice touch so i can download an app straight from there
without having to open the actual app itself if i go into this i can edit them so you can
unistall or delete them etc click on that again and i can sort them by custom order
or by alphabetical order so these little things are nice little touches now another thing
that is new with 7.0 is the split screen functionality that does'nt make much difference to the S7
edge because Samsung have been using split screen for a long time so if i click on here
i don't know lets click on this one and lets go with YouTube go to my one there as you
can see you can still adjust the height and so on of each window if i click on that and
i click on this new icon in the centre it now turns it into a floating little icon there
so if i come out of this completely you can see the icon is floating around where ever
i want it if i click on it it brings that back up and this will float over any other
app that i have open in the background its a nice little thing this so i can use that
i can close it and come out of it completely like that so beautifully done there are a
lot of differences on this what am i finding the differences are how am i finding them
i'll tell you this now this is like a brand new device now its worth getting this device
for these changes its much faster much more fluid performance has increased battery life
for me has increased by about 15% because it now uses doze functionality of 7.0 im running
on the Exynos version i'm telling you now guys you can pick this up in the UK for £500
this phone off Amazon i've left the links before so check out my other videos well worth
getting this with 7.0 this is a brand new device guys brand new and with the extra battery
life i love it you can actually download more panels now if you want for the edge functionality
so if i click on that you can make a call send a text you know what ever you want go
across see your data usage etc etc so you get a nice idea so come out of that so for
me guys its very very well worth it 100% beautiful device even better now even better so i recommend
it when you get it doenload it it works like a champion anyway i hope you enjoyed thats
a quick take on whats new and oh its the new Grace UX if your wondering like the Note 7
