Lower reception than my old S5?

I've been noticing that my s7e has significantly lower reception although still functional, compared to my old plastic s5. I'm with a small carrier (mobilecity in toronto) because they have unlimited data but I heard that they have bad reception, even though it's been OK on my s5.
Now with the new phone, while I haven't had any dropouts, I often see my reception drop to two or one bar.

WiFi I think is also slightly lower, there are some places where my old phone can barely get a signal and the s7e cannot.

Is this just a difference in design? Like plastic phones having the freedom to make their antenna in whatever shape and not be limited to the shape of the metal frame?
