As you may or may not know, Samsung recently started rolling out Android 7.0 Nougat for Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge but there is one weird thing that some users reported. Samsung Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge comes with the native resolution of 1440 x 2560 pixels but after updating the device to Android 7.0 Nougat the phone starts in a 1080p 1080 x 1920px resolution.  We first thought, it was some sort of bug but unfortunately it’s not and Samsung did this intentionally to improve the battery life of the device. Overall, the battery life of S7 and S7 Edge is pretty good and if you’re also an S7 or S7 Edge owner and you want to change your resolution back to 1440p from 1080p then you need to change some settings of your device.
