I upgraded from a Samsung Note 4, which is an awesome phone (hubby is enjoying it now). I kind of wondered how much better can a phone actually get? It gets a lot better. Besides the fact that it is a beautiful phone, I get to enjoy a screen size almost as large as the Note without so much bulk. It is speedy and responsive and Marshamallow is a great upgrade. Touchwiz has come a long way also. The screen is bright and beautiful and the camera really performs, especially in low light. I cannot bring myself to submerge this phone to test the "waterproofness", nor will I. I'm just glad to know that in case of a water accident, it should survive. Fingerprint recognition is way better than the Note 4. I'm glad because I use it when using Samsung Pay. The App installed seamlessly and I have had no problem getting it to work at several different stores. I have a clear case on the back of the phone to protect from scratches. Problem is, once you put a case on the back, it's very had to have one on the front. This is the first time I have not had a screen protector on the glass of my phone. I am very careful and so far, so good. I did receive the Gear VR this week (mine came as a promotion with the phone) and have only used it a couple of times. It is very cool. I watched a couple of 360 videos and you can turn all the way around in your seat and see behind yourself. You actually feel like you are in the movie. I will be exploring a bit more this weekend. I am very glad that after sitting on the fence for a couple of months, I finally decided to get this phone. It's great!
Pros: Bright display, beautiful phone, great camera
I would recommend this to a friend!

I have had many many many Samsung products and I have enjoyed them all however this one takes the cake!! First of all the ability to change the total theme of the phone without downloading an extra program is excellent. Then the device being as intuitive as it is makes the process of just selecting an app to use simpler. Finally the fact that this is probably the strongest phones I have ever had, that includes the ones I had while serving in the Marines that were supposedly military grade, which gives me the confidence that this probably the safest I felt with a cell phone. Thank you Samsung for a simply EPIC phone! Semper Fi!!
Upgraded from a s4 active and this phone beats it by miles in every category.
Pros: Realistic color, Bright display

My first impression after going back to the Galaxy models is that there is great attention to usability for the owner. Easy to set up, and easy to customize. The battery life is VERY good and pages load quickly. Excellent Camera!
Pros: Bright display, Durable

This is my 3rd Samsung phone and by far, the very best!! It is super fast in navigating the Web and it has so many extra features that previous models did not. The camera takes beautiful pictures . My husband. has an iPhone but I would choose the S7 over that any day. I love, love this phone. The charging cable charges the phone super fast, as well.
