I have been in love with the Galaxy since the very first one came out. I am so happy with this phone and it's functions. I'm also glad that they added the removable storage instead of having to pay extra for more storage. It's easy to use and so much easier to transfer your files from your old phone to your new one as well.
This phone has an awesome camera! Great quality photos!
Pros: Built-in speakers, Durable
Cons: too small
I would recommend this to a friend!

Good, just not quite GREAT, like i expected it was going to be from all the reviews...

It's snappier than my S4, the locked-in battery lasts longer than the ones i had with my S4, the display is sharper, all around it is certainly better.. just not quite as MUCH better as i'd expected from all the fanfare and reviews.
My S4 seemed snappy when i first got it, so ... wondering if this one is just going to bog down and be just as slow in a couple years??
My S4 battery also lasted pretty well at first, made it through a whole single day for the most part, unless i was using it heavily. This phone does that too, but it will not last the whole day if i'm using it alot, and no longer do i even have the option to carry another battery... thankfully the fast charge capability will help, but still, i now have to have this thing tethered to a charger at least once during the day for at least an hour, which is not ideal. For all the hype, and ESPECIALLY for not being able to take a fresh battery, it SHOULD last a good 18 hours on battery - even with some mild-to-medium usage of the camera, facebook, a few apps... who wants to carry a phone they can't use without fear of it dying and then not having GPS to get you home at the end of a night out!?
My S4's display was pretty darn good, this one is better, just not otherworldly better to the point where i think when looking at it how i ever managed to get by with the S4...
I'm also disappointed the IR blaster is gone... i thought i was upgrading my phone in every way, turns out i'm losing some neat functionality i actually used. The speaker is maybe even not quite as good as the S4s?? Not sure about that, i didn't compare them directly, but i wasn't blown away by the sound out of this S7. No worries on that, i use bluetooth speakers and car audio anyway, which does work great!
The water proof'ness is great to know it is there in case, though i don't see myself swimming with this thing in a pocket, or otherwise submerging it if i can help it. I DO think this summer it will be very cool to have it in the pool with my kids, not having to worry if it gets splashed though, i'll be able to take amazing pics of my whippersnappers! Looking forward to that!
All in all, solid phone when i was expecting spectacular... maybe i'm just not using it to it's full potential yet??? Time will tell, i look forward to uncovering more greatness than i have so far....
