Isn't this thing going to bog down after a while with only 32GB on internal storage? I was already to pre-order from Verizon until I heard 32GB was the limit in the US.

Can anyone comment on the Always on Display? Coming from a Moto Droid Turbo, the active display is a must have feature for me.
Are you able to select a notification on the display to have it open directly to it on the S7?
I don't think so from what I read. It is not the same as a lock screen.
Any 6+ or 6s+ users thinking of jumping over for an edge?
what is the remaining storage from the 32gb with 6.0.1 and touchwiz?
That doesn't sound quite right. S6 edge has around 23GB free out of the box with ~7.5GB used for system. I cannot fathom why S7 edge would be so different?Unboxed demos are showing that the stock system uses 11.5 GB, with approx. 18GB Free

I'm in UK (Exynos 8890) so here we get Samsung's proprietary Fast Charging tech, which has been improved vs the S6 generation. Sorry I don't know what QC version the US variant has.Quick Charge 2.0 or 3.0?
I'm guessing that's to give parity in charging speeds between regions? It'd cause a bit of a controversy if the US variant charged way faster than the UK variant. Total guess by the way, I have no official info on this.It's 2.0.
I too got hands on with the devices today at product training, though it was quite brief unfortunately.
I only got to see the black versions but both look really nice. The S7 edge feels pretty much like a bigger S6 in the hand, so a noticeable improvement over the S6 edge. The S7 meanwhile, is even more comfortable as the rear is extra curved compared to the S7 edge. So in terms of in-hand comfort I'd rate them: S6 edge < S6 = S7 edge < S7.
As for battery life, I directly asked our Samsung trainer how much of an improvement in battery life the S7 edge will get vs the regular S7. His response was essentially to not expect miracles because the larger display will drain more power, so expect the edge to last an extra hour or two a day vs the regular S7.
Lastly, I had a nose in the settings to check the free storage. It was 7.27GB taken up by the system partition, leaving 24.14GB available. He had downloaded a couple of apps and photos etc. onto the phone so ~25GB is a reasonable amount to expect out of the box.
I'm still undecided but I think I'm now more inclined to the regular S7 after having the hands-on with both phones and speaking to the Samsung guy about the battery life.
