GS7 EDGE

First off I am very upset that they didn't had this phone in white. So I settle for a black one. The only reason why I upgraded to this phone is because my GS5 was messing up big time otherwise I would of waited for another phone perhaps the Gs7.
This phones performance is great I love the speed of things, it has yet to give me a problem as in freezing and stuff which is great! I do however hate that if im touching a little bit of the screen when trying to take a picture it won't take it & it's very hard to not touch the screen since the edges are part of the screen!
Another issue I have is that it minimizes the screen when I don't want it too like if I'm just scrolling through fbk it will randomly make my screen small but when I want to make it small it takes a few trues to get it done. Another thing I have a problem with is that I can't take out the battery which is something I used to love from my s5 because I hate charging my phone !!! & the speaker omg I hate it, I really do my finger tends to "block it" & it's annoying I like it better in the back of the phone like once again my GS5.

I'm very have that it has the expandable memory, I like the way the pictures come out the Camara is amazing ! I like that I can change my themes as in my icons & stuff. & I really like that I can have my top 5 people on the edge. I wish the edge was more like the note edge tho that would of been great! I like that this phone is very light & durable I have a kid and let me tell you it comes in handy to have a durable phone ! Overall I like it, but I would do some changes to it if I could. It's a great phone it just takes sometime getting used to it!
Pros: Realistic color, Bright display, Durable, Lightweight
Cons: Did not meet expectations
I would recommend this to a friend!

After using a windows phone for the last two years I decided to switch back to an android. As it turns out, I went with the Galaxy s7 edge and boy am I glad I did. For the first time in two years I was able to do a lot of things I couldn't do with the windows phone. Simply being able to read my Google mail, which is something I couldn't do is enough to make me happy. Thank you Samsung for another great product.
Pros: Bright display, Durable, Lightweight, thin. easily fits in any pocket.
Cons: haven't found any yet.

Good but not Great

Don't get me wrong I love the phone, but not more than I loved my S4. There are only 2 things that made me upgrade and they were the better camera and more space. The only thing I would really like on a phone this size is the ability to use a pen stylus with it like you can with the Note or the new iPad.
Batter life is good, I'm still getting use to the new calling features and messaging on the phone.

Great device, not optimized battery life

I'm not going to repeat what everyone else says and mention all the positives and go into details. Water resistant, sleek, high end device with great performance. Awesome screen and huge battery. We all know this... My problem is the unoptimized battery. AOSP (google nexus) devices with new marshmallow draw about 1% an hour (if not less) while on doze and not being used. Android system draws barely any power. This is the "app" that runs all the background services which include all samsung system services like "KNOX", "Samsung Pay", Samsung MirrorLink" and everything else. Without optimization, this runs at about 30-40% (on 2 S7 Edge phones we own in this household). On a Nexus device it's maybe at 5% top. It took 1300mah on my wife's phone when I looked at 60% with not alot of screen on time. This is HORRIBLE. I had to do many tweaking to bring mine to less than 20%. If this was caught in testing or fixed before launch, our phone battery would last almost twice as long. Doze also doesn't work properly and will keep the phone awake even when dozing. This isn't supposed to happen. It's supposed to force non messaging apps in "sleep" mode during doze with a short turn on to pull notifications and shut it back off.
I'm very dissapointed in this and really defeats the purpose of having a big battery. This isn't just me either. on a highly known "phone forum" there is a 1000+ post thread on this issue with many other upset users.
Just look at your phone and see in battery under settings what is #1 battery eater. I guarantee it's android system if you own a S7. If you have a non samsung phone, it will be nowhere near the top.
I uploaded two pictures showing what android system draws on a samsung phone versus what a AOSP (naked) google marshmallow draws. It's very disappointing. It's software related, so I hope it's fixed in a nearby update.
Pros: Bright display, Durable, Lightweight
Cons: Did not meet expectations, poor battery life & optimization

Great features! With the curved back, it fits perfectly in the hand. Lots of additional apps to personalize the phone. Awesome camera! Much faster auto focus and amazing for taking pictures at night.
