Changed over to Galaxy

I knew I made the right choice when I walked out of the shop into the blazing bright sunshine, wearing my sunglasses, carrying my new Galaxy7 in hand and could clearly read its screen! I'd been torn between moving to this Galaxy S7 or sticking with a different brand and upgrading to the newer model. Most important to me is clear call reception/consistent connection which just wasn't happening with my old one, so I made the switch to go with Samsung based on personally observing Galaxy users, with the same service provider I have, receiving clear calls in locations where my smart phone failed. I am new to the features and performance of this Galaxy S7-- as far as I can tell they are good. I love the design compared to other smart phone options. The display and the dimensions/weight, processor, 12MP camera rate an excellent; value is above average in relation with the smartphone market in my opinion.
The Samsung S7 Edge is everything a phone should be. The ease of use is outstanding. Menus are simple to navigate and the whole user interface is a joy to work with.
Pros: Bright display, long lasting battery, fast charge technology
I would recommend this to a friend!

Waterproof, Virtual Reality, and Pro Photos

So far I have only had a few issues. I like the sleek design. I like the themes feature, but it can really make things hard to find or unrecognizable.
Water resistant feature was issue when I was in shallow ocean, because the phone would act like I pushed buttons everytime water touched the screen... maybe I can change the sensitivity of touch settings. Not sure. I had trouble charging it, even after I was sure that it had "dried out." I even tried blow dryer, still wouldn't work, said moisture in the charging port. Eventually I soaked the phone again, and washed out the charger port with fresh water. I dried it out once again with hairdryer, on mid setting. The phone finally started charging again, but it has been acting slow on some buttons now. Hum? Didn't get phone even under 1 foot of water.
The VR aspects are amazing, and I bought this phone after playing on my friend's S7 edge with Oculus Rift. The edge is hard to get cases for and it is a little too responsive on the "edge." I have hard time not clicking wrong things.
I am not fond of the button functions on this S7. I would like to know if those can be reassigned or customized. The home button and the button left of it, kind of lagging now and their function isn't what I'm used to.
The photos are outstanding, and I must say that hands down this is why I buy Samsung. I want 3 more features though, even more control over shutter speeds, Samsung pro version attachments to make my photography zooms clearer, even more mega pixel power, and more professional features, I want to replace all my other cameras, or at least most.
The selfie wave to take photos is awesome. The 3d spinning around objects is phenomenal. I love the new levels this provides to an artistic mind.
Pros: Bright display, see below
Cons: see below

I purchased this after being disgusted with my long time association with another company. This product is awesome! I love it! It is fun, exciting, enjoyable and I am always surprised at the versatility of this superb device. I highly recommend this to new users and experienced users. You will be most happy you made the choice.
This is my first samsung smartphone and my experience has been great! I get long on screen hours/battery life, the screen is very clear, vibrant, and I can see it very well out on the sunlight, I can use samsung pay, it charges quickly, holds a good signal.
The edge feature is nice to have for quick access to news, contacts, and some apps while multitasking and it can display a clock on the edge during the night for a quick view of what the time is.
This phone is also very smooth, I haven't had any lag or performance issues. Imo this is one of the best phones you could buy right now and I don't regret it at all.
Far better controlling changing from one task to another than my S4, and split screen is far easier, whether doing it on a regular or edge version.
Pros: Bright display, Durable, Lightweight, best intuitive task manager, landscape mode is as good as a small tablet, android software is smooth and seamless, good file managers backwards legacy compatible, file backup and retrieval is simple and easy, extraordinary battery life and power management, easy connections with networks wifi and lan
