So, Samsung is hard at work with the major Android 7 Nougat update for its most current flagships — the Galaxy S7 and S7 edge (sorry, Note 7, we miss you). And some lucky users have already had the chance to enroll in a beta-testing program for the new software.
It is through them that we learned today of a new feature headed for the Galaxies — an options menu within Settings that allows the user to pick a resolution of their own choosing... well out of the 3 options, that is — HD (720 x 1280), FHD (1080 x 1920), and QHD (1440 x 2560). Of course, weve seen this menu before — it was on the Note 7. But its life was cut short by the minor annoyance of an exploding battery, so we didnt get to enjoy its unique features a whole lot.
But back to the S7 / edge. Word is that, currently, when you update to Android 7, the phone will default to the FHD resolution (1080 x 1920), not the full, ultra-crisp QHD. This could be an overlook with the beta, but it could also be a conscious decision on Samsungs part. We thought wed ask — which resolution would you choose on your S7 (hey, even if you dont have one — imagine that you do and join the fun) once the Nougat update comes?
