I love my Galaxy7!

This is my third Galaxy, I probaby love it so much because of the familiarity. My new Galaxy7 has great battery life, It comes with a USB adapter to directly connect it to your old phone and transfer your photos, contacts, etc. The speedy charger that comes with it is awesome & I'm looking forward to using the cordless charging feature as well. The download speeds are impressive. I love the always on display option, and the ability to turn it off when desired. There are so many features I still have to explore! Overall the Samsung Galaxies have been great phones for me, can' t imagine upgrading to anything else!
I just upgraded from a Galaxy Note 3 (which I also loved) to an S7 Edge. There is just so much new function in this phone... I've had it for 2 days and am still exploring. You can of course read all about it on the web, because it's really too much to get into the full details here. I will however hit just a few of the main features I like.
The main new feature is the Edge function. You can just swipe from the top right to left and reveal frequently used apps, then task shortcuts (create contact, take selfie, etc.), people, and news. All of this is programmable to add or delete just about anything you'd like from each Edge menu. It's extremely handy.
The display: Super AMOLED, protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 4, 2560 x 1440 pixels with a 640dpi resolution. It really pops, super clear. It's also extremely responsive to the touch, even with a Zagg screen protector applied.
It's water resistant to 3 meters, but not waterproof. Nonetheless, I guess I don't have to worry about dropping my phone into the toilet anymore. ;^)
Battery life is excellent. I personally get about 10-15 hours, depending on what I'm doing. It also charges very quickly, from nearly dead to a full charge in a little over an hour. It can also be charged wirelessly, but I haven't bought that charger (yet), so I really can't comment on the performance there.
This might sound trivial, but one new feature I really like in particular is the ability to unlock the phone using my fingerprint. You can even register multiple fingers (I use my forefinger and thumb). Seems really secure as well, I've had several people try their fingerprints and the phone rejected all of them. Fast access, and awesome!
Samsung has really hit it out of the park this time, by far the best phone I've ever owned.
Pros: Bright display, Lightweight, see review text.
Cons: nada!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Samsung has brought me back

This device brought me back to Samsung. Great job!!!
If you skipped the s6 or the note5 last year, the s7 takes the best of those versions and improves upon them. To me, this is almost a perfect phone thought mine does tend to run a bit hot.
