Word is Samsung will follow the design legacy of the Samsung Galaxy S6 in its Galaxy S7 model scheduled to launch in the UK in January 2016. The Galaxy S6 was a complete departure from the Galaxy S5, but the upcoming S7’s expected to copy much of S6’s designs and specs.

A slew of new Galaxy S7 renders tip-off interesting details about the phone. Built out of glass and metal, the S7's will have great exterior looks that create a premium feel, reports PCAdvisor.

The Galaxy S7 screen is as large as the Galaxy S6. Expect a similar 5.1-inch screen size for the Galaxy S7 similar to what’s on the Galaxy S5 and Galaxy S6. Expect a microsSDcard slot back towards the left and a micro-USB port.
