    For those with cracked screens and damages...

    Hey, people here say it's a glass phone, glass cracks, what do you expect when you buy a glass phone. A premium $900 phone doesn't mean it's indestructible. Cannot recommend using a case enough :-\

    Please check your phone for this build quality issue. See picture and details!

    I wonder if it is normal... airtight seal? Could you submerge your phone in water and test??

    Note 7 Has A Screen Defect (phone cracked after being dropped)

    Re: more fragile then my note 5 (edit: more detail he told me that it was pushed off his desk in his kitchen onto the tile floor at 3 1/2 feet. But he didn't emphasize that it had a lot of power behind it when it slid off the desk. Said it hit pretty flat on the tile ).

    Note 7 Has A Screen Defect (phone cracked after being dropped)

    Besides the case he had a full Tempered glass protector on it but he actually took it off just the other day because it kept on lifting wasn't sitting well. This is his words exactly on the incident ... It was definitely my fault and that glass cover would have saved it.. it hit pretty flat on...

    Note 7 Has A Screen Defect (phone cracked after being dropped)

    Re: more fragile then my note 5 Here is a pic of my coworkers Note 7 just mentioned. He had his phone in a Caseology Envoy Series case. 3 Feet!! Not 1.5 meters like Corning says and tries to emphasize in their videos of the girl dropping the phone at 1.5 doing a selfie into concrete. I have...

    Note 7 Has A Screen Defect (phone cracked after being dropped)

    Note 7 Has A Screen Defect (phone cracked after being dropped)

    Re: more fragile then my note 5 Your right that if any major change needed, we'd probably wouldnt see it changed for a year. But structurally I think the phone is ok... from what I read the aluminum structure has gotten very positive comments as being pretty rigid. so it's the glass. I'm...

    Note 7 Has A Screen Defect (phone cracked after being dropped)

    Re: more fragile then my note 5 I also believe as you mention that in many cases that no matter how strong a device just can be the unlucky dude where more damage might happen then the next guy. And I personally don't believe in putting my phone in my back pocket especially and didn't think...

    Severely worse video camera?

    With the Note 7 are you videoing directly to SDcard or internal memory? I saw a review where a person commented poor video quality and noticed the record was defaulting to SDcard. When he changed it to internal memory the video quality had improved greatly.

    Is it really worth the price increase?

    Since you mention camera is major need then save your money and go with S7 since they all have the same camera and texting, social and browsing is your general use and you show no real interest in the S-pen. Smaller battery wont be too bad since the S7 has a smaller screen to power over the...

    Note 7 Disappoints again with video/audio recordings

    Did you have an SD card and recording straight to SD? J. Williams review noted when he did video test and phone defaults to SD the video sucked. But when he recorded straight to internal memory it was normal. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F2ZcwKV1_q0

    The OnePlus 3 vs the Note 7

    Re: For $850, I would rather buy 2 One Plus 3s! (Note 7 Review) If you read most reviews, even if all agree it's the best phone, they have all mentioned price. Flossy, "Too god damn high!"... "Do not front. You know this doesn't feel like a $1000 phone." lol And used comparison too that if you...

    Torn between waiting for iphone 7plus or getting the Note 7: Need Feedback

    When my G3 died and forced me into an iPhone 6, the only think I knew I would hate to lose was Google Now and Google Maps because I used voice queries with OK Google ALL the time. But I did a work around by installing the Google app and putting the icon on my main home screen at thumb reach and...

    Torn between waiting for iphone 7plus or getting the Note 7: Need Feedback

    With recent reviews with general opinion saying it's not the fastest Android out there and posts here with reports of lag and possible fragility on the glass, I still think as of right now the Note 7 is probably the best phone of the year. iPhone 7/7 Plus will probably be in stores in about 30...

    Note 7 - This lag is unfreakingbelievable

    Question... how good is Samsung with software updates? Cause they do get firmware updates right? And some apps like AOD get updates right? Hopefully whatever issues people are having now like lag, etc... that they send updates regularly in hopes of resolving some issues like these. When I had...
