The Galaxy is in our hands again; this time in the form of the Samsung Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge. This is a sleek, sexy device that competes on every level with the iPhone, and consumers all over the world are ecstatic to finally get their hands on it. With a new phone purchase, though, inevitably comes the need for new accessories, such as cases, headphones and more. This list should help you narrow down the plethora of accessories out there to a select few which you should definitely consider picking up.
The S-View Case
These cases have been wildly popular in the past, so it came as no surprise that the S7 got its own version. This is an official Samsung product, so it’s guaranteed to fit your phone perfectly and will most likely last you for quite a while. The S-View case is unique in that it covers the majority of your phone (front and back) while still allowing you to take pictures, make calls, respond to notifications and more without having to open the case all the way. Definitely for the consumer on the go.
Otterbox
Thin Case
With that being said, some people just don’t like the bulky feel of a heavy-duty case, and that’s why there are plenty of ultra-thin cases that will protect your investment from a lot of damage, barring perhaps falls from the countertop or out of your car. Still, they’re low profile so they don’t take up a lot of room in your pocket or purse. The Evo Tactical Case is one of the better thin cases that will get you what you’re looking for.
Screen Protectors
These days, a case isn’t enough when dealing with delicate smartphone screens. Luckily, screen protectors are fairly affordable and there are plenty of great manufacturers that give you everything you need to protect your screen with a layer so thin and without air bubbles that you won’t even notice it’s there. Check out Shatterguardz on Amazon for just one great example.
Fast Wireless Charging Stand
Another Samsung licensed product, the Fast Wireless Charging Stand is not a foreign concept to anyone who owned a Note 5, but the difference this time around is that not only does this stand recharge your phone up to 60% faster, it also comes on a stand so that you can still easily access your phone when it’s charging. This is definitely the tech of the future, and it’s fairly affordable when compared with the level of convenience that it will provide in your life.
Samsung 128GB Micro-SD Card
One huge advantage that many Android phones have over their Apple counterparts is the ability to remove and change SD cards. This allows you to easily increase the memory on your device without having to delete songs or constantly go through old text conversations and delete them. This 128GB card will give you a ton of storage for all of your memory needs. There are definitely also smaller versions out there if you don’t need quite this much space.
Samsung Gear VR
In case you haven’t heard, the virtual reality revolution has finally started, and you can easily experience it through your Galaxy S7. For $99, you get a lightweight, comfortable headset that allows you to experience games and media experiences like never before. Somewhat surprisingly, this actually isn’t a gimmicky product at all- the VR really does look and feel great, and it will help you get immersed in new worlds like never before.
Wireless Headsets
These really are great products that are incredibly convenient and easy to use. You don’t have to worry about catching a cord on a door handle and ripping your headphones out of your ears ever again- these things are great for the gym, the office, your daily commute, and basically everything else in between.
