So I've had this phone for 2 weeks now and I love it but there are some areas of concern. First, the screen is extremely sensitive especially the edges. I recently put a case on it and it has helped some but still pretty sensitive if your aren't careful. Also after installing an app from Google Play (not certain exactly, but think it was the Assistant app), it started resetting by itself. One day it done it about 5 times. I was getting ready to return it for another one but decided to uninstall a few apps. It hasn't reset since. The battery doesn't seem to impressive either. If you shut everything off but the basics, it's okay. As for the video calling feature; Samsung should be more clear on this feature. You and the person you want to video call both have to have this feature and you both have to be in a 4G area. Since my Wife and I live out in the country, it's no help to us. We did however download the Skype app and it works great. The camera and video is awesome and to us, since we have Grandchildren, is worth the price in and of itself. Love that it has an SD card slot but you must use a name brand card. Sound seems to be good and I like that you can customize it to your needs. Since I am hard of hearing in one ear, it showed that my left ear was the preferred ear for answering calls. I have been a Samsung user for several years now and they always (in my opion) put out top quality phones. The S7 edge isn't any different but just needs a few tweeks. Maybe an update will be in the future to resolve some of these issues. As for the edge feature, I don't really use it. I just got it because it was bigger than the regular S7 and so me and my Wife didn't get our phones mixed up. Oh yeah, no need for a screen protector; I've done a lot of research on this gorilla glass and it's the best on the market. Although, maybe a screen protector would solve some of the sensitivity.
Pros: Realistic color, Bright display, Built-in speakers, Durable, the best glass on the market
Cons: very sensitive, must always be in a 4g area to make video calls
I would recommend this to a friend!

A Work of Art!

I've had Galaxies, and I've had more Galaxies. Samsung has always produced a quality product. When I got to the Galaxy S6 Edge, I knew I found the perfect phone. I thought it would be my last until, the release of the Galaxy S7 Edge. With the addition of extra storage and water resistance, I didn't hesitate one second to pre-order. Then came the wait. And man was it worth it! When I unboxed it, the first thing I noticed was the way it felt in the hand. Samsung curved the back as well, and it makes such a difference in comfort. It is a bit taller than the S6 Edge but it is so comfortable to hold. The back camera housing is more flush to the back, and with the back curve, it is easier to pick up than the previous model. The phone is screaming fast! Multiple tasks, split screens, and anything you throw at its processors will be handled with smooth transitioning and quick screen responses. The finger print sensor is so smooth. An improved edge screen is also worth mentioning as you have more ways than ever to customize it. Instead of being a novel curved edge, you will find yourself using it often. Now comes the best thing so far. The lock screen has an always on feature so that you can, at a glance, see the time, date, battery level, and notifications without waking the phone. It is customizable as well. Oh, the battery. 3600mAh! I have yet to go through a day when I didn't have enough battery power! It paired well with the Gear Neo2 as well as the Gear S2, (a whole other review on the watches later)! Side Sync app is also a great way to go from your phone to Galaxy Tab S, and not miss a beat! Another great thing I discovered is some additions to the camera. You can take a 180 degree selfie to include all of your friends! Low light photography is excellent! As if this wasn't enough, add the experience of the Gear VR and you have an adventure you just have to see for yourself! I think this is not just another Galaxy, it is a work of art! The most advanced, beautiful phone I have ever purchased! Thank you Samsung for engineering the best products on the market!
Pros: Realistic color, Bright display, fast, beautiful, always on lock screen, 3600 mah battery, virtual reality, the best camera
I would recommend this to a friend!

This phone has a lot of features. More apps than I will likely use. It has a larger battery which is very important to me. I need a phone to be available all day to get my tasks done. I will highly recommend this phone. The large screen is very clear. It takes very good pictures. Samsung went all the way with the technology on the Samsung Galaxy Edge.
