The Galaxy S6 and the Galaxy S6 edge are two of the most beautiful smartphones that Samsung has ever designed and the company has built upon that foundation nicely with the Galaxy S7 and the Galaxy S7 edge. The idea was to encapsulate high-end technology in an inviting comfortable design, Samsung calls it the perfect marriage by paying attention to usability but also keeping an eye on craftsmanship.
Samsung has started a new Design Story series of posts on its official blog through which it tells the design story of the new flagships. It says that many easy-to-miss details have been given extra attention in the new handsets as smartphones are in the user's hands all day which is why the experience of touch and interacting with the phone is as important as the way it looks. 3D Forming glass technology was used to combine the curved glass and metal to create a seamless singular shape. The slimmer rear camera is consistent with the shape and finish of the overall design, it just looks so much better.
With feel and touch user experience Samsung's design motto was focused on drawing closer to users. Special attention was paid to improve the user interface and the color palette of app icons softened to make it easier to view the overall UI for an extended period of time. Samsung will reveal more about the drive and commitment of its designers to find perfection, genuine premium quality, and meaningful design in part two of the Design Story series.
