Nowadays flagship devices on the market today are mostly water resistant capable phones or even if they're not, some of the phones can still handle water pretty well. We have seen a Samsung Galaxy S7 underwater unboxing, Nexus 6 underwater survival test and now it is time for more Samsung Galaxy S7 edge water tests, this time for approximately 16 hours by Lewis of Unbox Therapy.
Technically, the Galaxy S7 edge is IP68 rated so it should be able to handle a minimum of 30 minutes at a depth of 1.5 meters. While we also have our own frozen Samsung Galaxy S7 edge test, check out if the Galaxy S7 edge survived in this article.

While the Samsung Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 edge are both water and dust resistant, even to the point of surviving being frozen, neither of them are shock resistant. This is mostly due to the glass front and back on both phones but leaks have seemingly confirmed that Samsung are making a rugged military grade (shock resistant) Galaxy S7 Active smartphone. No news on tech specs, Malaysia release date or pricing details but we don't expect the Galaxy S7 Active to arrive in Malaysia anytime soon, considering that Samsung Malaysia only brought in the Galaxy S7 edge.

With the Samsung Galaxy S7 edge out and about, the rumour mill is starting to gear up for the next smartphone, which for Samsung would be the Samsung Galaxy Note 6. Rumours indicate that the Note 6 may have 6GB of RAM and a 5.8-inch 2K display. As it is, the Vivo Xplay 5 Elite is already the world's first 6GB RAM smartphone and more are expected to come from other smartphone makers so 6GB of RAM for the Note 6 does sound plausible.
