This device has lived up to the hype. The battery is much better than its predecessor. Also it has an expandable memory slot. This works great if you are taking lots of photos and videos.
Its easy to use, water proof, lots of memory, the edge will show notifications in different colors for missed calls, messages, events, etc. Also you can make your current screen smaller to look at a new screen. Really love this phone!
The Galaxy S7 is a very impressive phone. Although no larger than my S4, the S7 has a number of significant improvements. One is the OLED screen that is always on. Another is the battery life, which seems to be quite a bit better than the S4.
One interesting change is the screen's cover glass. The screen edges are rounded, which gives it a sleek look, but that small edge radius also makes it difficult to add a tempered glass screen protector. That's because the screen protector glass can't overlap the rounded edge; consequently, screen protectors for the S7 must be smaller than the actual screen size. This appears to be a general complaint with the screen protectors, but the reality is that the screen design drives the smaller screen protector.
I haven't yet tried the wireless charging, but that's a feature that I'm excited about. Also, the biometric finger print reader seems like a nice feature, but it's not yet clear how well that functions.
This is the 5th android I have owned. My previous phone was the Galaxy S5. I regarded that as the first Android phone that was actually reliable. The S7 is a mature, well designed phone. It has some quirks, but overall it is a very productive and fast phone. The camera is best i've ever seen in a phone. The battery life can very widely based on your settings, but it lasts all day even with the "Screen Always On" feature that shows a clock even when the screen is off. Overall, I would recommend this flagship phone to anyone looking for a quality device.
Pros: Bright display, Realistic color, Durable, Built-in speakers, battery life
I would recommend this to a friend!
