We are seeing more and more terminals that are offering a secondary panel, as is the case with the LG V10 or the recently LG X Screen, so that the user can see quickly if you have new notifications such as messages, emails or missed calls. A trend that can have the small handicap of consuming more battery, so it is usually offered in devices with a higher battery capacity or that have version 6.0 of Android that has certain quite remarkable properties in the energy efficiency of the terminal. Be that as it may, this year can also be that of the secondary panels as a way to offer other features that attract the attention of users and even more so when the Galaxy S6 edge has had a better acceptance than expected at first.
In this new edition of the Galaxy S7 edge, Samsung brings back that special secondary screen that allows access to all kinds of notifications to include, if you want, the most relevant news about the economy or sports with different news aggregators. Today is when Samsung itself has launched an entry from its website commenting on some of the novelties of the edge screen of the next Galaxy S7 that will be presented by the company itself at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona. Among the novelties of the edge panel is a higher resolution that reaches up to 550 pixels or the option to create calendar events or set an alarm.
More news for the edge panel
This panel edges the truth when it comes to design it is totally spectacular. A curve on the screen that offers other sensations and that defines a terminal, the S7, which will include rounded corners and which can be said to be the Galaxy with the most curves to date.
The panel improvements go towards a screen edge improved in resolution and a series of new features that allow interaction with it to perform small tasks. With a few simple swipes, you will be able to perform small actions and receive the appropriate information in a way that goes to another level than previously in the Galaxy S6 version.
Higher resolution
The first version of the Galaxy S6 edge screen had a resolution of 260 pixels, which partly limited much of the content that could be shown. Now, the Korean manufacturer has improved the user experience by reaching 550 pixels, which doubles the possibilities of the content that can be displayed through this panel.
This update in the resolution implies the arrival of new capabilities that will improve this panel considerably, which makes it possible to also increase battery consumption since there are more than double the pixels that are displayed on the screen.
Your contacts and apps more at hand
The edge screen allows some quite remarkable features such as edge panels, shortcuts to certain information and tasks. Users will be able to customize up to nine panels which includes the contacts or People and the apps.
The contacts panel allows you to have direct access to your favorite contacts from the same area. Previously this feature displayed very small photo icons of the user's five most important contacts that were linked to their profiles; now these are shown under the photographs for an enhanced experience. Another small advantage is the inclusion of an icon for the settings in the lower left.
When it comes to apps, this panel now includes the ability toto include up to 10 applications and even the ability to display entire folders to have a more suitable organization according to the user's needs.
Create tasks from the edge
This is possibly one of the greatest novelties to allow to create tasks as an event in S Planner, set an alarm or compose a text message. A selection of tools is added including a compass, customizable flashlight, or ruler.
Samsung has now included the possibility of customize tab that allows access to these contact panels, apps and tasks. Personalization goes through position, size and transparency.
Other advantages of this new panel will be the new software included Among which are Naver V or Yahoo apps such as Finance, Sports and News.
