Details:

Xperia owners have always been looking for custom methods to update their phone to a higher version of Android. Sony Xperia SP did get a chance to live on Android KitKat and Lollipop by means of custom ROMs. Now that Android Marshmallow is also out, Xperia SP owners must be willing to update their device to this latest most version of Android as soon as possible.

Now that the Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow is there, Xperia L owners might be looking for a way to enjoy the highest Android version now.

You will have to take your time to explore what each tool is supposed to do as the names can be confusing. But, once you get hold of all the tools, it is going to make your life really simple. Above all, GIMP comes with full layer support.

Users get to use all the handy tools like Clone tool and magic wand as well as it comes with full layer support just like GIMP. You can also enjoy the following rich features;

  • Handle multiple images

Again, if you are not a pro for editing tools, you will need some time to figure out what each tool does. Simple filters are comparatively easier to work with. You can adjust contrast, brightness, saturation and posterize, solarize or desaturize image. There are a number of photo filters readily available as well and the program can be used in multiple languages.

Photoshop Express Editor:

You might mistake this one for the Adobe Photoshop. It is much less complicated than Photoshop and can be considered a demo version. However, it is not close to Photoshop. However, the simple user interface and menu allows users to quickly edit photos using basic editing tools like crop, rotate, adjust brightness, contrast, saturation, etc. You can also use adjustment tools as well as defining photo filters using Photoshop Express Editor.

Picasa:

Picasa is mostly used for organizing and managing photos. You can upload your photos and share them with your circle. However, one feature of Picasa makes different filters available for you to mask your photos with the right one to make it look better and lively. And once you are done editing, you can feel free to directly share the photo with your social circle.

List of Samsung Galaxy S7 & S7 Edge Model Numbers:

Specs:

Samsung is all done with launching its latest flagships the Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge at MWC, 2016. The Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge are far better than their predecessors. Galaxy S7 Edge is bigger, and also brings a massive bump in the battery i.e. 3600 mAh as compared to the 2550 mAh battery on the S6 Edge.

Both these phones, in terms of specifications are equipped with either an Exynos 8890 CPU or a Snapdragon 820 CPU accompanied by a 4 GB RAM which has just become a standard for Android flagships of today.

Details:

The standard S7 touts a 5.1-inch QHD display with 576 PPI and the S7 Edge sports a 5.5-inch QHD display with 515 PPI. Both these phones have Samsung’s new 12 MP camera module at the back which is pretty much efficient in low-light conditions. A 5 MP shooter is on the front to entertain selfie freaks.

Samsung Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge run on Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow out of the box. Both these phones are following the design and build language introduced by the Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge. As usual, Samsung is going to launch a plethora of variants under the S7 and S7 Edge umbrella.

Now that Samsung has also turned back to its tradition of launching the same smartphone with 2 different SoCs, we will be seeing different regions getting different chipsets plugged inside the S7 and S7 Edge. In order to give you a better idea of what model number brings what specifications and what SoC onboard, here is the detailed list of the S7 and S7 Edge Model numbers with their regions listed beside.
