I've had this phone for a month or so now and I love it. I had the S5 and loved that phone but the S7edge is so much better. More features, note options. And of course bigger scree, sound is definitely louder with the speaker on the bottom. I thought it was going to be a problem with the screen breaking but its even better than I thought. Honestly I have dropped it twice already and still not a scratch on it. I was sure it would break because the salesman said the edge screen is a little more sensitive. I'm happy to say no problems at all. I truly love this phone.
I was happy with my Galaxy S5. Upgraded to the S7 for the camera. We had a scheduled trip to a famous amusement park. I wanted the increased camera performance of the S7. I no longer carry an SLR or Point & Shoot. For outside shots my previous S5 was great. The S7 takes great low light shots. The camera launcher is very quick. The low level picture and video quality is very good. I took video of the night time events at a famous Amusement Park. Video Recording was shot in 1080p. Video looks great on my Samsung TV.
The high speed wireless charging also works very well. I would like to see mobile high speed wireless charging. I'm stuck with low speed wireless charging when in the vehicle. Samsung Pay also works. Battery life is really good. Wife and I each had about 50% battery life left at the end of the day after taking pictures, video and checking the Amusement Park app throughout the day. This was from 7am to 11pm battery life. Very happy to avoid the shame of Wall Hugging.
The S7 Bluetooth call quality is very good. However, the S7 is not happy when switching between bluetooth devices throughout the day. My S5 never complained. Data transfer using wifi direct from S7 to S5/S3 works great. The S7 also allows picture folder creation straight to the memory card. Something the S5 would never allow.
While at the Amusement Park there was an area guaranteed to get wet. Didn't faze the S7. I kept recording while other manufacture phones had to be hidden. Very happy with the phone.
I have always been a Samsung fan but one of the reasons for that has been expandable storage which this phone has AND a removable battery which the have gotten rid of.
Pros: Bright display, Built-in speakers, expandable storage, samsung pay, flashlight shortcut, great operating system
