The Samsung Galaxy S7 counts with a little bit better looking screen than Apple iPhone 6s, because it has a lot better 1440 x 2560 resolution, a much brighter display, a bit bigger display and a much higher display density. IPhone 6s counts with a bigger memory capacity for apps and games than Galaxy S7, because although it has no SD extension slot, it also counts with 128 GB internal storage capacity.
Samsung Galaxy S7 takes a bit better photos and videos than Apple iPhone 6s, and although they both have the same (4K) video definition, the same 30 fps video frame rates and a camera with a 12 mega-pixels resolution, the Samsung Galaxy S7 also has a larger back-facing camera sensor and a much larger aperture to capture better low light photos.
The Samsung Galaxy S7 features a way better battery life than Apple iPhone 6s, because it has 3000mAh of battery capacity.
Although Apple iPhone 6s is a better device, it is way more expensive than the Galaxy S7, and it doesn't have such a good quality/price relation as the Galaxy S7. So if you need that extra specs, you can buy the Apple iPhone 6s, but if you don't you can save some money and get the Galaxy S7, resigning some specifications.
