A great upgrade from my Galaxy 4

What a change, going from a Samsung Galaxy 4 to the Galaxy 7 and Galaxy 7 Edge!! I didn't know what I was missing!
While the first S7 I received had (I believe) a defective battery and was returned/exchanged for a new one, the battery life is truly amazing - and lasts until evening! It was disappointing that the expected battery life wasn't there on the first phone I received. However, now that I have exchanged it, the battery life truly is awesome! I love the fast charging feature, just give it just enough juice if I'm in a crunch for time!
Great idea having the SIM card and SD card slots "all in one".
The display is magnificent! Pictures, colors, video's - brilliant!
There are many functions that I haven't even had time to figure out, set or play around with. I'm sure it will take me (an IT person) some time before I find all of the features of this new phone!
The camera is great! Beautiful pictures, with a variety of modes. The "Virtual Shot" is very interesting!
Love the "Always On" feature. Even though many say to turn this feature off to save battery, I feel that your battery will use MUCH more juice, lighting up your entire screen with the brilliant colors and light every time you open your phone just to check the time!
I don't care for the Calendar - as I have not been able to set the snooze to a specific time - i.e., snooze for 5 minutes, snooze for 10 minutes, snooze for 30 minutes, etc., like I was able to do on the G4. The function may be there - I just haven't found it yet!
I don't like that the speaker is in the lower right corner/bottom of phone. Typically - I only use one hand with my phone - when I'm holding the phone with my right hand, my pinky finger bracing the bottom, it covers the speaker. Reducing and sometimes garbling the sound. I would suggest the speaker at the top.
Other suggestions - give the messaging app the capabilities of more personalization, along with delay sending (for those of us that seem to send texts to the wrong people, or notice mis-spelled words after message has been sent!) That would keep us from wanting to download third party apps.
But I'm loving my new Samsung Galaxy 7 and 7 Edge!!

Everything I wanted in a phone
on March 23, 2016

from Waco, tx
Expertise:Intermediate
I was deciding between the Galaxy S7 Edge and the iPhone 6+. I wanted a phone with a good camera, gorilla glass, a large screen and a phone that was thin. With this phone, I got all of those features and more. I am very happy with my s7 edge.
Pros: Realistic color, Bright display, Durable, Lightweight
Cons: the speaker isn't very loud.

New Galaxy S7
on March 23, 2016
Posted by: SamsungNut99
from Minneapolis, MN, USA
Expertise:Intermediate
The new S7 is a great new phone, fast and the right size. Not too big and not too small.
The battery longevity is a little disappointing. A bit better than my old Samsung S4, but not as good as I hoped.
I llke the interface, updated, but not so different from my last phone that I could not get used to it quickly. I also like that fact that I can add an SD card and I like the waterproof feature which I hope I never have to rely on.
Pros: Realistic color, Bright display, Built-in speakers, Durable, Lightweight
I would recommend this to a friend!

I love this product. By far worth the upgrade. The new curve on the back is a good feature. And I really love the increased edge functionality and expandable memory.
Pros: Realistic color, Bright display, Built-in speakers, Durable, Lightweight, expandable memory.

Excellent Battery Life - OK performance
on March 23, 2016
Posted by: Anonymous
from Colorado Springs, CO, USA
Expertise:Expert
Overall the performance of this phone is OK, sub par compared to my old Samsung Galaxy S6. I feel as though there is some lag in the interface, more so than other phones that I've had. The battery life is phenomenal however... I can go approx 30 hours per day on one charge with my normal usage. Other devices I would average 8 to 10 hours.
Pros: Realistic color, battery life
Cons: laggy interface, poor performance in apps
I would recommend this to a friend!

I have previously owned the S5 & S6 phones and the S7 is by far the best yet. You will like the new curved feel in the hand, the processor is lightning fast and the camera shots are second to none.
Pros: Realistic color, Bright display, Durable, Lightweight
