The Samsung Galaxy S7 is all but unveiled, but that hasn’t stopped tech informant Evan Blass from sharing more leaked images of the Samsung’s 2016 flagship. The leakster shared on Twitter Friday, images of two phones he claims are the Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 Edge. The images appear quite legitimate and look as if they could be press images directly from Samsung.

Blass also added other renders to his Jan. 4 rundown of possible Galaxy S7 specs on VentureBeat . Overall it’s not terribly surprising that the devices look an awful lot like their 2015 predecessors.

Prior reports have indicated Samsung plans to focus more on internal hardware upgrades for the Galaxy S7 instead of designing new look. The Samsung Galaxy S6 introduced a design revamp, bringing a premium glass and metal look to the the S line, which was previously known for its polycarbonate plastic exterior.

However, Samsung is expected to improve upon the Galaxy S7, by reintroducing to the device, the microSD slot, which was missing from the Galaxy S6. The S7 is also expected to have a considerably larger battery and much more battery life than its predecessor.

Reports also suggest that the Galaxy S7 may sell in Pink Gold and Titanium Silver color options in addition to standard black and white models.

The Samsung Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 Edge will likely be unveiled Feb. 21 in Barcelona. Recent reports suggest a March 11 launch, at least for European markets. At this time, no details about the Galaxy S7 have been confirmed.
