SamsungGalaxy S7 Edge 32 GB SIM-Free Smartphone - Black

What a great phone- Top end Camera with many extra features. Fast focus and very easy to use.- Fantastic OLED screen. The contrast and blacks are phenomenal.- 32gb and can take at least 128gb internal storage as well- Picked it up on an amazon deal for a great price- The battery life is great and I usually get 2 days of moderate use between charges- Audio is also excellent through the jack and speakers.Was weighing up between this and the S8. Am glad I went with this in the end due to the price difference and the small incremental upgrade of the s8.

There are some pretty extensive reviews on this phone so I see little point redoing the main points of the phone.It's been a good upgrade for me coming from a Google Nexus 5X model running Android N 7.1.1.I was not able to use the Samsung OTG files data transfer system as the Nexus phone would not allow the Samsung app to be downloaded and installed. However, i used the opportunity to 'clean up' my phone and only download and install apps I wanted. As I logged into the Goggle app store it had all my apps available so the process was easy.I installed a 128Gb micro SD card and this worked well, even loading some data intensive apps into the SD card to save on the internal memory the apps work very well. Music apps have the option to locate data internally or externally so all of those are on the SD card which can be encoded for security.I had some issues linking Android Auto, now resolved, with the car but all the other connections seemed to be easy and solid.So far so good and I'm happy with the purchase especially the screen on it's highest resolution it is so clear. I use 1:25K walking navigation maps and it's a joy to use even with the zoom at maximum.

Nice concept but very problematic phone, screen died after almost one month and took to samsung repair centre. After a month and a half I'm still without a phone and samsung customer service doesn't seem to care too much. Would strongly recommend going for another more reliable phone from a company that will tell me more than "wait a bit more", also did not seem to accept my micro SD card although other devices worked fine with it. The device itself feels like it will break with the slightest impact. I may be going back to Apple, more expensive but at least I'll have a phone.

As many others before me, upgrading from SGS5. I wouldn't actually if I hadn't drop my phone one month ago and shatter the screen...So, after almost a week of usage I have a bit mixed feelings... I loved my SGS5 and I was expecting a bit more, to be honest.... the screen doesn't seem bigger at all... and I prefer functionality (UX) over design... and the rubbery non slipping back on SGS5 was way more comfy in my hands than SGS7 Edge is. It is visually gorgeous, but as I said...what annoyed me was obviously setting the phone again from the scratch to fit my needs (back all the apps and all the settings [killing annoying notifications and uninstalling / disabling some apps I don't need, etc) ... I hoped the transition from my old phone would go smoother (lost some contacts that apparently were not linked to my google account, lost some chats in whatsapp, etc)...tried to set go launcher EX but was clearly not ready for android6 and edge... needs more polishing... so staying on touchwiz... which actually works pretty well... the only thing I don't like is the weak widget resizing mode... and the dock toolbar, offering only up to 5 icons...Sometimes it also happens I trigger something by holding the phone in my palm.. and my palm touching the edges of the screen that are now obviously responsive... and there is no bezel there... it happens more times that I care to admit...also the screen seems to be more polished and smooth... meaning the sliding feels very different... IMO too smoothNOW, to the good parts... All mentioned above are really minor things... and me being a creature of habit, used my SGS5 for 2 years almost always the same settings... saying that... this phone is gorgeously brilliant!- (front) CAMERA, absolutely brilliant... what a difference from SGS5.... food shots, pub shots, low light... everything much, much better- (back) CAMERA ... selfie mode is improved as well... much better in low light.. + I love the fact I can press the heart rate sensor on the back to take the photo- SCREEN is much brighter and really good outside on a bright day- SPEED is GOOD, it was OK before for me on SGS5 once optimised, so I don't really, really care about those milliseconds- BATTERY is OK.... is not great, was expecting better, but it's OK- THE SIM/microSD card slot... GOOD, now I don't need to remove the battery to insert them... but I need the pin to get the slot out... impractical a bit, but come on, how often do you really do that?- WATERPROOF... although SGS5 was waterproofed as well, the USB slot cover was SOOOO ANNOYING that I tore it away after couple of weeks.., SGS7 doesn't have it... which is great!Overall, great phone, highly recommended!
