The Galaxy S6 wireless charger and Gear VR are compatible with the Samsung Galaxy S7

Mobile phones no longer arrive alone, now they arrive with a whole series of accessories that are not cheap at all, such as the wireless charger, or virtual reality glasses. However, shelling out a large amount of money for these so that later you have to buy them again when a new mobile comes out is not ideal. Hence, the fact that the wireless charger and Gear VR glasses of the Samsung Galaxy S6 are compatible with the Samsung Galaxy S7 is to be commended.

Compatible with the new generation

The compatibility of accessories in the world of electronics with later generations has always been somewhat relevant. In the world of cameras, the objectives of a camera are perfectly valid for new cameras of the brands. But we see something opposite in other sectors, such as video games. Neither the games nor the accessories are usually compatible with the new generations. The arrival of the Samsung Galaxy S7, a mobile similar to the Galaxy S6, left us a curious situation, because the Galaxy S6 was a mobile that arrived with some accessories that users could buy, spending a considerable amount of money, as is the case wireless charger or Samsung Gear VR glasses. If you have a Samsung Galaxy S6, why buy a Samsung Galaxy S7? Because it is a better mobile, its interface will be similar, and you will have some very notable improvements. But of course, if your accessories were not compatible, you would have many reasons not to update your mobile.

Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge and S7

However, this is not the case. If you have a wireless charger for the Samsung Galaxy S6, or the Samsung Gear VR that were released for this smartphone, you can use these two accessories with your new Samsung Galaxy S7. Which in turn gives you a reason to buy the new Samsung flagship, and not another manufacturer's mobile such as Sony, LG or HTC. Since you have the accessories and they are compatible, it is better to buy a smartphone with which to continue using them, right? A good strategy by Samsung to sell their mobile, but commendable if we consider that users who have bought the accessories for the previous version of the flagship, will not feel that they have wasted their money if they decide to buy the new Samsung Galaxy S7.
