Samsung has just experienced two huge leaks regarding its upcoming flagship Galaxy S7 smartphone. The handset's front panel has been photographed and compared with the Galaxy S6 and Note 5, and another report claims to reveal the specs of either the Galaxy S7 Plus or S7 Edge Plus via an image posted on Reddit listing the phablet's hardware specs.

As we get closer to Mobile World Congress 2016, which kicks off on Feb. 22, you can expect to come across more reports of what our favorite smartphone manufacturers are planning on announcing at the event. Last year's biggest stars were Samsung's Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 Edge. The pair finally brought a premium feel to Samsung's flagship handsets, and the S6 Edge introduced a dual-curved edge display that helped the smartphone take home the coveted "Best New Handset, Tablet or Device" award.

Samsung has scheduled an Unpacked event the day before Mobile World Congress 2016 begins and will reportedly use the event to launch the Galaxy S7, S7 Edge, S7 Plus and S7 Edge Plus. The handsets have been dominating headlines, with reports of leaked schematics and renders giving us a glimpse at the sizes and designs of the upcoming smartphones.

Now, two new reports have emerged that reportedly show the Galaxy S7's front panel compared with the Galaxy S6 and Note 5, as well as a screen shot posted to Reddit, which detail the Galaxy S7 Plus or S7 Edge Plus' specs.

PhoneArena received images of what are allegedly the front panels of the Galaxy S7 compared with the Galaxy S6 and Note 5. The pictures appear to confirm the Galaxy S7 will ship with a larger 5.2-inch display compared with the 5.1-inch screen found on the Galaxy S6. The Galaxy S7's front panel also closely matches the more squared-off design of the Note 5.

Meanwhile, another tipster posted an image on Reddit, which is believed to be from a hardware report run on the Galaxy S7 Plus or S7 Edge Plus. The results show a 5.71-inch 2560 by 1440 quad-HD display, Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 processor, 4 GB of RAM, 32 GB of internal storage, 12 megapixel rear camera and 5 megapixel front-facing shooter.

It's always best to take these reports with a huge grain of salt. However, luckily, Samsung's Feb. 21 Unpacked event isn't too far away, and we'll keep you posted on any new Samsung Galaxy S7 news as it becomes available.
