I started with Note 7 and after recall picked the S7, they are exactly the same just smaller screen and no pen,which I hadn't used anyway. Fits in pocket easily and lightweight! The price difference made it an easy choice
Pros: Realistic color, Lightweight
I would recommend this to a friend!

Replaced My Note 7!

I replaced my Note 7 with the S7 Edge, and I am super happy! I didn't really need the note feature, so I decided not to wait for the replacement Note 7 and "downgraded" to the S7 Edge. Not a "downgrade" at all, I think it's just as nice, a little less expensive, the right size, and let's face it, super cute since I picked the Gold one! The BIGGEST plus is that it still uses the same micro USB charging port, whereas the Note 7 had a whole new and different port style. That was pretty disappointing, so I'm glad that's no longer an issue! VERY HAPPY with my NEW new phone!
I miss the Note 7's features, this Galaxy Edge 7 reminds me of an off brand knock-off :( It does offer a lot of really great apps, but not the features I had grown to love in the Note series.
Pros: Bright display, Lightweight
Cons: Did not meet expectations
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

The Iconic Feature You Never Knew You Needed

Like most people who have never used an Edge device, I didn't really see the big deal.
I used to think - so the edges curve...that's not useable or beneficial really, the screen bezel doesn't really bother me.
Boy was I wrong!
The sloped edges of an Edge device may seem like a hollow feature, that doesn't really benefit a user - until you use them!
Even disregarding the Edge Panel goodies, the sloped edges make the device feel and look more seamless. They help with dragging between screens and scrolling. They let your content fill the device in ways other phones severely lack.
Just one of the nice features lets you set a color to frequent Contacts so that when the device is upside down (as we tend to leave it while trying to focus on other things like work and school), the edges blink that color when texts and calls come in. This may seem dumb, but at a glance i can tell if im getting a text from someone important, without getting roped into reading it, breaking my train of thought and interrupting my studious work.
And then there's the Edge Panel - best HUD on a smartphone! Seeing Apps, Contacts, and Widgets without leaving the current app, or losing valuable screen space is priceless!
And as with all top-end Samsung devices, the screens are beautiful - better than some Retina displays and most HD offerings. Additionally the sound! The speakers might not be the be-all end-all, but they get louder than my laptop, and sound better - what's more to say?
And if you're coming from an IOS device - just wait until you get to use the Android back button a few times! It's worth more than any IOS feature could ever hope to be.
