Let me start off by saying I really like my phone! Best thing is the camera! That's the best camera I've ever seen on a cell phone! This phone is lightweight, and so smooth! The colors look great on the screen! Bigger memory is a plus, and thank you for bringing back the memory card expansion! The feature with screenshots is great!
On to the issues. There's some lag in some things, and I've turned animation off, so not sure what that's about. Then there's the issue with Wi-Fi/Bluetooth and the internet. If the Internet is not responding and you have Bluetooth on and it's not connected, then you will need to turn it off so that you can use the Internet. This is a serious flaw! Then there's the case of the alarm sometimes making noise, and others all you get is a vibrate, no matter how loud it's turned up. Yet another flaw! The calendar is a little different as well. There's not an option to set how long the snooze will last. There's definitely some bugs to be worked out.
The camera is as impressive as Samsung claims. I have only had a couple low light pictures not exceed the quality of the HTC camera. I miss the hover pop up feature that I used to have on my previous galaxy. Also missing is the continuous scroll through for the home screens and apps.
Pros: Durable, Lightweight
I would recommend this to a friend!

I love customizing my Samsung products and the reliability of what I get. I was a little wary when the s6 came out without some features I had in the s5, but the s7 has really reeled me back. What I'm hoping for is a fix with the touchscreen. It isn't what I'm used to, although it's not entirely horrible. Would I turn down the s7 for this? Nope. Camera is awesome, Video is awesome, the wireless charging is great!! Oh and I'm super excited for that gear vr!
Pros: Realistic color, Durable, Lightweight
