Samsung Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 Edge handsets are now available in India. The latest Galaxy models reach users in India just within a month following the global unveiling at this year's MWC in Barcelona.

Samsung Mobile India also sent out details on the handsets' respective prices in a tweet.

That means the Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 Edge will be priced at about $726 and $845, respectively, for interested buyers in India.

Samsung touts its new flagships to be powered with LTE Cat 9 connectivity, which allows users to get the best network performance particularly in areas where there is low coverage.

The 5.1-inch Galaxy S7 is powered by a 3,000 mAh battery, while the bigger 5.5-inch Galaxy S7 Edge is packed with a bigger 3,600 mAh battery. The latter is also heavier at 5.54 ounces, compared to Galaxy S7's weight 5.36 ounces.

The latest Samsung flagships both have a Quad HD Super AMOLED display that has a pixel resolution of 2,560 x 1,440. The latest generation has also brought back the microSD card slot, which was notably absent from the Galaxy S6 line.

"Running out of memory shouldn't be a thing," says Samsung. "So if 32 GB isn't already enough, you can add an additional 200 GB with a microSD card. No clouds, no hard drives."

Other highlights include 12-megapixel rear cameras with dual pixel, 5-megapixel front cameras, Android 6.0 Marshmallow OS, 4 GB RAM, Samsung Pay and an IP68 water-resistant rating.

"You can't live without water or your smartphone, which is why the Galaxy S7 Edge & Galaxy S7 have an IP68 rating. That means it repels spills, splashes and even dunks so you can save the rice for cooking."

Interested buyers can choose from three elegant color options that include Gold Platinum, Black Sapphire and Silver Titanium.

Those who preorder either one of the Galaxy phones could also be eligible to get a free VR headset, provided pre-book the handset by March 17. The smartphones will officially go on sale in India on March 18.

Both devices also have other items designed to impress any accessory buff. Some of what users can also buy include Wireless Charger stand, LED View Cover Flip Wallet and Battery Pack.
