Mobile Choice readers have awarded the Galaxy S7 edge a Consumer Award for being the best phone of the year. Despite the recent Galaxy Note 7 debacle — which still appears to be very much at large as a Southwest Airlines flight was evacuated on Wednesday when an alleged replacement unit caught fire — Samsung managed to beat off tough competition from Apple to pick up the manufacturer of the year award.

To be completely honest, we can see why the Galaxy S7 edge was voted by members of the public as the smartphone they were most impressed with by this year. Not only is it a work of fine art, but it also packs some extremely impressive specifications that'll satisfy even the most power-hungry users. Under its all glass hood, you'll find a 5.5-inch QHD display, a Snapdragon 820/Exynos 8890 Octa CPU, 4GB of RAM and a 12MP rear-facing shooter.
