    Just thought I would share a picture of the Note Edge side by side with the S7 Edge.

    You must be reading my mind today. I have the Note edge, and I was curious about the size difference. Screens look the same size. Anyway, edge functions, are they the same or better than the note edge?

    Unfortunately, I still prefer the way the edge panel does things. I like the music controls being there, notifications being there and the way the panels display content much better.

    I still like the S7 Edge but the S7 Edge will never compare to the Note Edge as far as the edge panel functions go. It just never will in my opinion.

    I agree the s7 edge panels are not as helpful as the note edge. Also I find them super sensitive which the phone much harder to handle..on a side note I find the s7 much more buggy compared to the note edge

    The biggest difference between the two is with the S7 Edge panel when using a panel, it blurs out the rest of the display making that area useless.

    Interesting thread. Thanks to everyone for sharing the S7 Edge comparisons. I've been curious but most reviews only reference it to the S6.

    I guess I'm in line to either get an S8 Edge or another Note variant if they come out with one. I'm really confused as to why Samsung keeps going backwards with the use of the edge. They seem to keep stripping functions out of it rather than building on what the original offered. I'm guessing the Note platform can just do more but I'm not sure.

    BTW blurring out the rest of the screen for edge function is terribly stupid and pointless in my opinion.
