The Samsung Galaxy S7 is launched with a feature called Always On display which enables you to get all the information like time, date, calendar, and notifications right on the AMOLED screen. The Always On shows battery-friendly notifications without actually unlocking the phone. Disabling Always On display is a wise option for those who find it annoying or just want to save a small percentage of the battery.

Furthermore, it still takes a small amount of the battery percentage which may be a bit of a concern to them.
