Samsung has updated its top tier tablet range with the S7 and S7 Plus models. But how do the two differ and which should you consider buying?
(Pocket-lint) – Not content with releasing two of the biggest flagship phones of 2020 – in the Note 20 and Note 20 Ultra – Samsung also revealed a pair of tablets at its Unpacked event on 5 August: the S7 and S7+. As you might have guessed, the ‘Plus’ model is the larger of the two. But that’s not all that’s different. Here we run through the details and which of these two slates might appeal the most for your needs. squirrel_widget_327780DesignTab S7: 254 x 165 x 6.3mm / Weight: 495gTab S7+: 285 x 185 x 5.7mm / Weight: 590g Tab S7: Side-mounted fingerprint scannerTab S7+: Under display fingerprint scannerBoth devices: Aluminium frameBoth devices: No 3.5mm jack First and foremost these two tablets are different sizes. The Plus model has the larger screen, therefore its footprint is also larger – although this bigger tablet is actually the slimmer of the two by a tiny amount. The Plus also has an in-screen fingerprint scanner, whereas the standard S7 uses a side-mounted arrangement instead. In terms of construction the two tablets – which we got to see at Samsung KX in London ahead of the reveal – feel very much that same. That’s thanks to a high-quality aluminium frame that feels solid, without being overly heavy. DisplayTab S7: 11-inch IPS LCD,1600 x 2560 resolutionTab S7+: 12.
