re:

My guess is micro USB. I'd love for it to have Type C, but I think its too early for Samsung to make the switch.

re:

Frankly I don't care if it's USB-C or not. I can live with micro USB as long as it does quick charging.

re:

It will probably be micro USB. It's kind of unfortunate though, I think Samsung needs to move to type C to push the rest of the market towards it.

re:

I don't think it's confirmed for micro USB yet. AC only looked at leaked photo and guessed micro USB from it. Not that I care too much, but I just saw this video.

Not sure where is his source, but he claims it's USB-C.

Throwing my hat into the type-C crowd. I'm not sure why everyone is up in arms about a switch, USB cables are like 4-5 bucks a piece. Not like you have to buy a ridiculous proprietary $30 cord...

re:

My $0.02? Same as most people -- I think it will be USB-C.

re:

what is the advantage to type C to be worth buying new cables, chargers and making current docs and auto connections incompatible?

re:

I couldn't care less...if it has wireless charging. Which I love, though most seem to be pretty meh about it. I'll probably hang on to the S6 if the S7 doesn't have wireless.

It will be interesting to see the route Samsung takes if they go with USB-C. Google decided to not incorporate wireless charging into the Nexus devices supposedly because USB-C charges fast and is easier to plug in (reversible).
