"Samsung has introduced snap-on keyboards, battery packs, wireless chargers and more accessories for the new Galaxy flagships"

Soon after introducing its latest flagships, the Galaxy S7 (

first impressions) and S7 edge (first impressions), Samsung has also showcased several accessories for these devices at MWC in Barcelona. The brand has introduced snap-on keyboards, battery packs, wireless chargers, a handful of cases, and a couple of swappable camera lenses for the new Galaxy smartphones.

The Keyboard Cover offers a physical QWERTY keyboard, which attaches to the phones at the lower half. Once attached, the phone detects the accessory and the screen automatically resizes itself.

The battery packs are available in 5,100mAh and 12,000mAh battery capacities and support fast charging. The new wireless charger comes with a stand or hinge, so the phones can be used while being charged in the upright angle.

                                         

There's a new accessory called the Backpack, which extends battery life of the new phones. It comes with a power status indicator that lets you know how much charge is still left. The case and cover accessories for the new Samsung phones include a new LED View Cover with LED display and controls via touch interface, Clear View Cover, S View Cover, Flip Wallet covers, and traditional leather cases.

In addition to the aforementioned accessories, Samsung has also introduced swappable camera lenses, which can be attached on top of the Galaxy S7's camera. They will be available as either Telephoto or Wide Angle lenses. The company hasn't revealed pricing or availability details of any of these accessories so far.
