    One UI 2.1 Update-Have you received?

    Not yet!! ;( Thinking it strange being Unlocked/USA Carrier phones getting it faster then unlocked from the factory??

    Who has been able to resist S8/S8 Plus so far?

    The Note 8 intrigues me more then the Edge 8, don't get me wrong I love my S7 Edge but I think my old Note 5 was my all time favorite phone and the Note 8 leaks looks awesome.. Hoping the price on the N8 is lower then a new Note series release would normally be due to the whole Note 7 debacle.. ;)

    Nougat battery life testing

    I have to say in my case battery life improved a ton since updating to Nougat.. I only difference in my use is I utilize Device Maintenance at least once a day (even made a shortcut to make it easier to run)..

    Best SMS, Phone Log, Contacts backup for factory reset??

    I was wondering if anyone has used a backup app for their sms text messages, phone logs, contacts and hopefully app data?? I want to do a factory reset, battery drain has increased lately so figured I'd do a reset and clean things up. PS: My Edge S7 is Not rooted

    Fast wireless charging not working

    I replaced it with Spigen's stand charger, it isn't a fast charger but it works every single time rightside up, upside down or lying on either side. Having two Samsung Fast chargers and neither lasting but a few months I wasn't about to buy another Samsung charger, used to be the premium...

    OK I'm at my wit's end regarding finding a good screen protector

    Funny how so many have such different user experiences with the same screen protectors, I myself tried 2-3 different protectors and I found the ZAGG InvisibleShield HD the best and my most favorite protector for my S7 Edge.. Reviews on Amazon and such don't quite agree (it only got 3 stars)...

    Fast wireless charging not working

    I have 2 Samsung Fast chargers(flat one and one the stand type) and they worked great the first couple months but now most times I have to unplug then replug either to get them to work??? Its almost like they need to be rebooted? I was hoping this was the issue the OP was posting about... PS...

    Screen Protector, the definitive consensus thread

    Originally I didn't like any protectors on my Edge S7 but after trying the Zagg HD Dry I'm liking it a lot!!! Install went smooth, it doesn't get all fingerprinted like other protectors(actually better then with no protector), I've used multiple cases with no issues interfering with the...

    Who is using their S7 Edge without screen protection????

    I hear ya. Had one on when I first got my GS7 Edge but hated the fingerprints so I yanked it off and been naked since even though I have a Zagg and a Spigen protector sitting in the drawer..

    Think they'll rename the Note 8???

    I'm Curious, do you think Samsung will rename the Note to try and distance themselves and people associating the name "Note" from this "issue"?? Corvair, Pinto and Gremlin are a few that come to mind :) Nicknames can stick to items and I'm sure reviewers, critics and obviously the Apple...

    Price drop due to recall?

    Never thought of that!!! I love my Edge 7 but always loved my Notes, my faith in Samsung hasn't waivered, if anything this will tightened up R&D and QC even more. I'm honestly surprised it took this long to have a issue like this with a high end phone, the way they develop, build and release...

    Who else is sick of all the nonsense doom and gloom over the Note 7?

    Hahaha, funny stuff.. I had the Note 5 for a year and a half and S7 Edge since release day and neither had any of those issues. Not sure if the T-Mobile person was trying to lessen the pain or incur new pain Samsung's way?? It is a shame though, I am sure the Note 7 had a great future ahead but...

    Good Edge cases and screen protectors??

    Well after having the Spigen Curved Crystal protector on my phone for a month I'm replacing it already due to scratching, I can't believe how easily this protector scratches and scuffs, apparently its just too damn soft!! Receiving a new case today and will replace the Spigen Curved Crystal...

    Cases for the S7 edge

    I have looked into leather cases & the the one you posted would be my choice but actually opted for the OBLIQ Meta Silver Slim Fit which is arriving today, Thinking it will look great with my silver S7 Edge.. My present Spigen NeoHybrid(black/silver) looks nice and protects well but to me just...
