Yesterday, a report stated Samsung would look to make the regular and 'Edge' versions of the Galaxy S7 in two different sizes. While the Galaxy S7 would features a 5.2-inch screen, it's reported that the S7 Edge will have a larger 5.5-inch display with curved secondary screens on either side of the screen. A leaked schematic — created by Shai Mizrachi and published afterwards by Android Authority — reveals a little more detail, and shows the size differences more clearly.
In the leak, the S7 and S7 Edge are shown alongside the current Galaxy S6 and, perhaps of most interest, is that the S7 has the same dimensions as the S6, despite having a larger screen. This would indicate that Samsung has worked a little on trimming down the bezel further. It's also interesting to note, the S7 appears to have curves near the edges on the back, similar to the Galaxy Note 5, presumably to make it more comfortable to hold.
As for the difference between S7 and S7 Edge dimensions, the schematic indicates we'll see a 2.5mm difference in width and 8mm difference in height.
There are a couple of other tidbits worth noting. Firstly, the metal frame shown in the top-down view suggests Sammy is changing the design somewhat. The S7, as previously mentioned, has bigger curves on the back, while the S7 Edge has them on the front. What's more, the camera protrusion appears much smaller on the upcoming models, while the IR blaster seems to have been removed completely.
Otherwise, it's very much the same from Samsung. As previously rumored, the design doesn't look as though it'll change much from this year's form factor.
