While the Galaxy S7 is approaching two years old and while the price has dropped to about half of its introductory price it is still a very good value for the money. I you are looking for cutting edge features found in the S9 products line you will not find them in this phone. It is a phone that has two years worth of updates and customer use under its belt. Also being a GSM and CDMA phone it can be used piratically anywhere in the world. Just pop in a locally purchased SIM card and you are good to go. The Galaxy S7 is still a very powerful smart phone and so far I have really enjoyed using it.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased this unlocked phone in March 2017. Just 4 months after the warranty expired, a half of the screen turned grey or glitched. I used to have another Samsung phone, Note 3 that had lasted just right beyond warranty coverage period. This is the second time their products only survive long enough not to be responsible under warranty coverage.
Cons: Poor quality

Lags drastically more than S6 I had before

Recently got an S7 through AT&T/Asurion's Warranty after my S6 of nearly 2 years started having problems charging and found the battery was swelling... and getting rather annoyed with the S7 lagging drastically when playing Pokemon GO compared to the S6 I had before... Makes it REALLY hard to correctly land Nice/Great/Excellent Curveball throws now which makes the main part of the game (catching pokemon) more of a pain.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Having the galaxy s6 and now the galaxy s7 is not much of a difference but the little that did change is enough to notice the difference in between the two of them
The Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge has far exceeded my expectations for a smart phone. From the amazing camera being able to shoot in 4K to the super fast processor to the awesome Edge functionality. This phone definitely has it all.
Pros: Realistic color, Bright display, Built-in speakers, Lightweight, fast processor, great camera
