This is a great phone! It is easy to hold (although I wish the on/off button was higher on the side where I'm not as likely to accidentally turn off the phone), feels good in my hand and is lighter than my last phone - always a good thing. I am getting great battery life. The screen is big enough that I can play a game if I am waiting in a doctor's office, for instance. Even though it is bigger than my last phone, it still fits in the outside pocket of my purse. I hope I don't have to buy another phone for a long time, but I would sure get this one again.
I really really love my new galaxy s7. I upgraded from a galaxy s4 (I wasn't convinced by the s5 or even s6). The overall feel of the phone is really nice, although at times I feel like I'm holding an iPhone. I wasn't too happy about the headphone jack being located on the bottom, but I'm getting used to it. Either way, I use wireless headphones. It's just annoying with a AUX cable in the car. It performs flawlessly. Although after a recent update, my phone overheated to a ridiculous temperature. I couldn't even touch the phone, as I was afraid to burn myself, or somehow make the display shatter. It took about an hour for it to fully update and cool down.
Cons: overheating prevention did not perform as expected
I would recommend this to a friend!

I am coming from the Galaxy S4. The difference is incredible. This phone has so many features that work the way they were designed. I am a photographer and the capabilities of the camera are very good. I just got the phone so a lot to learn. I can't wait to find all the various features. Got to love the waterproof feature. I have lost a couple of phone's to water. Great overall look and feel. And the screen is beautiful. Thanks for the great phone.
the difference from the s6 to the s7 can be seen right from the start. Huge upgrade on the battery life. New edge screen is more practical and easy to use. Don't wait go get this phone
I had been looking forward to the day when I could finally get my hands on this Samsung Galaxy S7. Definitely a great upgrade from my previous galaxy phones. It is the best one yet! The camera takes amazing photos, the battery lasts much longer. I am completely satisfied with my S7!

Pros: Bright display, Durable

I would recommend this to a friend!

The notifications on screen are amazing and the flexibility of what I can change is endless. The camera is better than the naked eye in lowlight conditions. No more annoying flash is necessary to capture precious moments. Expandable memory is a must for video, camera and music lovers and as well as documents for business. The 7 Edge is the perfect size. It is large enough for easier typing yet small enough to put in my pocket. It is lightweight too. Love the shiny case! The speaker is outstanding and very clear. There is a much improved handheld sound. I have already spilt water on it with no issues.
From the day that i got my new galaxy s7 I was more than impressed. From opening the box, just the look of the phone itself impressed me. As I have owned multiple galaxy devices before I knew what to expect and was not disappointed. All the new features such as the waterproof capability and the low light camera make the phone excellent. I am overall very satisfied and I can't wait for samsung to keep making the galaxy line better and better.
