I have always been a Samsung Galaxy fan. I just recently purchased the phone on the day it was released on 3/11/16. I love the size, weight, look and most of all the camera. With that said however I've had to make numerous calls and visits to an AT&T store. There is a glitch where I keep getting an encrypted text. Daily, sometimes more. I had the phone replaced however it is still happening. I went to the store today and they are going to try to resolve it on there end and get back to me. Hopefully this matter gets resolved because overall I am pleased with the phone.
I'm a android lover and I've owned a s4, and s5 before so upgrading to a s7 I can say I'm glad I did. Great look, feel, and features overal.
Pros: Realistic color, Bright display, Built-in speakers, Durable, Lightweight, waterproof, great features
I would recommend this to a friend!

I have had the Samsung S3, S4, Note 3, and Note 4. The S7 definitley has some better apps available and the biggest plus is the phone is all one piece and doesnt have removable pieces.
The best phone Ive ever had. BUT there are two downers... 1) the design is great but, i have big hands and fat fingers so i keep touching the "edge" which makes it lil frustrating. 2) because the design there are no curved tempered glass screen protectors the curve with the phone. so you have to use a less protective film protector. so mine already cracked from a minor drop off a chair.
Cons: no tempered glass protectors, hard to hold without touching the edge.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I absolutely love my phone! I used Att next to upgrade which made it very affordable! It's definitely the best phone I've ever used. From the water resistance to the the edge features. I'm just in love!
The device is great but has a problem , the problem is you can't take of the battery from the device and that thing is not good if the battery becomes weak !
I'm beyond happy with the Galaxy S7!!! I started with an iphone and was feeling a change after 4 years having it so I switched over to Android and got the Galaxy S5. The S5 was a good phone but missed the features of face time on the iphone and maybe after a year and a half later it would freeze up all the time. Now with all the video calling (face time), the camera is AMAZING, it's water resistant, comes with 32gb off bat- Iphone 16gb and the gold is so attractive. I always show my phone off to friends and family and tell them they should switch over!! Highly recommend this phone!!
I bought this phone to replace my S4 because I had to delete most of my apps over time because it regularly and constantly told me it didn't have any more space even though I hadn't added any new apps. So far I have been able to install my apps on this phone and still have space. The fingerprint scan is very convenient. I also love that the phone is water resistant. The camera takes nice pictures. I like that there is an option to have downloads go to the SD card. One of my main complaints is the number of preloaded apps that I don't want. Having to disable a lot of useless apps was annoying and some of them still use up space as they cannot be uninstalled. Really aggravating. I also don't see the advantage of the slightly curved screen as it made finding a screen protector that functions well a challenge and does not seem to enhance performance at all. I miss being able to set my voicemail and text notifications to repeat every ten minutes as I cannot carry my phone at all times and don' t want to look at my phone constantly to see if I missed a message. A removable and replaceable battery would have been nice. I hope that future updates do not take up all the storage space.
Pros: Realistic color, Bright display, Lightweight, water resistant
