Rather than simply providing an aesthetic flair, the edge has been refined to provide practical functions and easier access to users’ frequently used content and tasks. The most noteworthy modification of the Galaxy S7 edge’s UX is the enhanced edge screen. (Support functions vary from model to model.) The updated Smart Switch function lets users connect their devices’ built-in USB connector to other smartphones to transfer not only data files, but also home screen layouts and other phone settings in the same way they could with previous Galaxy models. Two of the most useful are Samsung Internet 4.0, which offers better privacy and functionality than the native browser, and Cross App, which lets users operate their favorite apps from within other apps.

In terms of usability, the Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 edge boast the recently released, user-friendly Android 6.0 Marshmallow operating system, which offers a whole host of new and improved features. Users can also now launch their favorite camera modes even faster by placing shortcut icons directly on the camera screen. To make the function icons visible at all times, black strips were placed on the top and bottom of the screen. They also have the option of removing weather information from the lock screen. Users can now customize these screens by adding two shortcut icons to their favorite apps. Samsung has also simplified the lock and home screens. A user can even apply the squircle shape to third-party app icons by activating the icon customization function. Unlike the device’s predecessor, which featured icons of various shapes, the Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 edge feature squircle (rounded square) icons to create a more organized, visually pleasing appearance. One of the most visibly notable changes to the UX is the shape of the phone’s icons.
