Good phone but some issues
on May 9, 2016

I would recommend the S7 but not the edge. I have noticed that I cannot use one hand to type on the phone as part of my hand tends to touch an area on the screen thus preventing me from scrolling or highlighting with one hand. The S7 does not have this problem asolving the screen doesn't wrap around the sides of the phone.
Pros: Realistic color, Bright display, Built-in speakers, Durable, Lightweight
Cons: touchscreen issues
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Love everything except one change
on May 9, 2016

I am really loving my new Samsung Galaxy S7 phone. That being said, I'm going to focus less on the greatness of the phone/camera (which is just a faster, better version of the previous Galaxy S phones), and talk about what is not great. There will be plenty of other reviews focusing on the glory of all that is included and great, I'm sure. But don't think for a second, that because there is only negative in this review, I do not like the phone. I love it. But I want you to know what is not great, since many other people will gloss over it.
The only thing I don't like is a change that was made back in the S5, apparently (I upgraded from an S4). I don't understand why they had to change the "menu" button to a "windows/multitasking" button. This functionality used to be called by holding down the center "home" button, but now holding that down just opens a "Google Now" voice control & search app. With a Google search widget on the desktop already, I don't really need this functionality. Another hassle with this change, is that I am constantly accidentally touching the multitask button while typing, which completely interrupts my typing, and can accidentally switch to a different app, if you don't stop fast enough. They also added another swipe required to get to the unlock screen, instead of just showing it immediately after turning on the screen (after I disabled the "always on screen" which was just constantly draining my battery). The one benefit that you get due to this, however, is that you get more screen space for app notifications while the phone is locked.
The last thing that was supposed to be a great feature, but seemed to fall far short to me, is the Samsung Smart Switch feature/app. It is made out to be the only thing you'll need to get all your apps, accounts, settings, etc moved from old phone to new. I'm pretty sure all it did for me was get my apps auto-installed. I had to do all the rest. Big disappointment, after the hype.
After those very few things (in the grand list of features, etc), I absolutely love my new S7. From the sleek (almost too sleek) exterior, to the speedy processor, to the incredible screen, to the much faster loading camera, to the sweet new features (most of which are far more than a simple person like me needs); the Samsung Galaxy S7 is an amazing smartphone. I expect to love it for years to come.
Pros: Realistic color, Bright display, Built-in speakers, Lightweight, sleek, amazing hd video playback
Cons: multitasking button, inadequate smart switch
I would recommend this to a friend!

S7 Galaxy is the best phone on the market today

The phone feels sturdy, not too heavy, and very comfortable in your hand. The screen is incredibly clear and the battery life is the best I've seen yet. What I love the most is how amazing the camera is. Low light settings are not an issue at all and I've enjoyed comparing the results with those of other phones with friends. All around its pretty clear what pictures look the best.
Pros: Realistic color, Bright display, Durable, Lightweight
I would recommend this to a friend!
