A handful of leaks that surfaced in the past couple of months gave the tech community a slight insight about the specs of the Samsung Galaxy S7. Rumors claim that the smartphone will run on Android 6.0 Marshmallow out of the box.

Additional leaked information reveal that the Galaxy S7 will have IP68 rating, 2800mAh battery pack and microSD support. The USB Type-C standard will not make its way into the S7.

For its hardware specs, the Samsung Galaxy S7 is rumored to run on either Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 or Samsung's own Exynos 8890 chipset, according to Android Authority.

Tech experts agree that the S7 will have at least 4GB of RAM, a specification that is becoming more of a standard for premium-tiered devices.

Rumors claim that the Samsung Galaxy S7 will have a limited local storage option. Although no official specs list had been revealed, some say the S7 will only have 16GB of local storage space. Storage space will not be a big turn down for the Galaxy S7 since it support microSD for storage expansion.
