Galaxy S7 Edge leaks out with lit-up lock screen, fine screen-to-body ratio

There's no shortage of leaks this week about the most anticipated handsets of the season - LG G5 and Galaxy S7 - that are about to be unveiled later this Sunday at the MWC expo in Barcelona. The latest in this installment series is a full frontal of the alleged Galaxy S7 Edge, and for the first time we see the phone operational as well, with the lock screen lit-up, and the stock wallpaper in the background.

The phone doesn't look that much different from all the leaks so far, but now, with the screen on, it seems that the top bezel will be pretty narrow, hinting at a stellar screen-to-body ratio. If the 5.7" Note 5's ratio is any indication, Samsung could have achieved a great feat with the Galaxy S7 Edge as well, stuffing a 5.5" handset in a chassis more akin to a 5.3-incher in size. Fingers crossed.
