This is a beautiful device that offers a great display, better battery life than past samsung phones, and a beautiful look. The phone can be a bit slippery so if you're not careful with your phone I suggest a case with grip. Also, for some strange reason the "do not disturb" mode will turn on at random with the schedule off, so I do hope this software issue will be resolved with a near future update. Another issue is the keyboard will occasionally become unresponsive and this is disappointing as I no longer have the option to turn touch sensitivity up. Other then these minor issues this is a great phone. The camera takes spectacular photographs, the phone has a perfect weight to it, and I would recommend the phone to others.
This is my first smart phone so I don't have much basis for comparison and I am still learning how to use it. In its unprotected state it is quite slim and beautiful with its gold case. I opted for safety over beauty and put it in a protective case, which adds bulk but also allows it to be conveniently carried on my belt. I am very impressed with its capabilities and I know it can do even more when I find the apps that suit my needs.
I wish the battery life were a bit longer, but then, maybe I am expecting too much, as I use it much of the day for listening to audio books or radio. I appreciate that it has both a speaker and headphone options. It is nice to be able to carry only one device instead of phone, cassette player and camera. I installed the optional mini SD card for additional storage and it holds a multitude of photos and some audio books with no problem.
It takes great photos. I wish it were possible to just connect it to my desktop PC and transfer pictures, but so far, at least, I haven't figured a way to do that.
I love the S7 edge, mostly for the looks! But speakers are on the down side.
Pros: Bright display, Lightweight
Cons: speakers
I would recommend this to a friend!

The S7 has been easy to use and brought back the expandable memory I missed. The phone works great and Samsung will need to come up with some impressive new features to get me to upgrade!
No comparison with the S6,. I used to have to charge my S6 at least once a day, on the S7 the battery lasts almost 3 days. Performance is better as well. No complaints and no regrets from upgrading.
Pros: Bright display, Lightweight, battery life
I would recommend this to a friend!
