Some good some bad

I traded in the GS4 for this phone so that's what I'm comparing it to. Of course the GS4 allowed for a battery change if needed, and added storage. The camera on the 7 is clearly better very nice. I love the fact that it is waterproof / dustproof. Unfortunately I was expecting a longer battery life with a brand new phone because my GS4 was 4 1/2 years old, I was wrong. The battery is about the same and maybe even a little worse with this new phone. When I talk to Verizon customer service they said that is true that battery lives are getting shorter on smartphones although the ads say battery life is longer. The worst thing about this phone is the way the alarms work. I use it as my alarm clock in the morning and keep it muted. This phone will not have an audible alarm if the phone is muted. What a horrible design! I don't want to be woken in the night by text and/or notifications that's why it's on mute. But when I need the alarm to ring I need it to be loud. Very very disappointing. The gs4 worked perfectly for that. I misses it.
I traded my galaxy note 4 in for the galaxy 7, big mistake, my note 4 was a lot easier to navigate and use. I can't stand this one, unfortunately I'm out of my return period, I've been trying to like it and use it but I seriously feel I made a huge mistake in trading.
Cons: Did not meet expectations
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Better Than The Reviews

Frankly, I don't get the less than favorable reviews that are out there on the Galaxy S7. I use my phone frugally in the sense that I turn off what I am not using, don't overload it with apps and media, don't toss it on the ground, into dirt, water or sand. Oh yes, and I keep it covered with a good bumper case and screen protector. As a result, I thoroughly enjoy the bright screen, the snappy performance, the excellent design, and especially the voice clarity of the actual phone calls that my old Galaxy S3 lacked. I still use a conventional camera to take photos, but the phone is great for spontaneous snapshots. I have no connection issues, although the WiFi is not as strong as my IPhone 6 plus, but it doesn't matter. What matters is that it easily connects to any WiFi and Bluetooth device that I have. It's a really nice size for pocketing, the fingerprint reader is fast and efficient, the menu system and access to features are easy to navigate, and, because I budget the phone's energy, I get reasonably good battery life. Every so often an app will glitch, but that happens on the iPhone too. There is nothing not to like about the S7,
Cons: glass exterior fragile, slippery without a case
I would recommend this to a friend!

Not anywhere as good as note7, but pretty good

Had to temporarily switch from the note 7 to the galaxy s7 edge due to the recall. The battery does not last half as Long as the note does, so took some time to get used to that. Nor doess it charge as fast. But overall, if your not into a note, this would be the next best thing! I love the edge screen, have had it since it came out.
Pros: Bright display, Durable, Lightweight, Built-in speakers, water resistant
Cons: long charge time, short battery life
I would recommend this to a friend!

The best phone ever

This phone is amazing with its wireless charging, vr, and many other things I can't think of on the top of my head. The best part about me getting this phone is everything because I had been using the Samsung Galaxy s3 since it has released and this is a HUGE jump from performance and quality.
Pros: Bright display, Realistic color, Durable, Lightweight, Built-in speakers, everything a person needs in a phone
