[anon(9842641)]

The postman just came with my Spigen case from Amazon. With a 5.5" screen vs the Note 4's 5.7", I didn't think there was going to be much of a difference in size. I was completely wrong. The N4 dwarfs the S7 Edge and I'm really nervous I'm not going to like it. Before my N4 I was on a N3, so I'm used to a bigger phone now and I said I'd never go backwards. Have to see tomorrow...

Took 50 min to go from 59% to 100%.

Now time to set it up and play!

Sheesh. This doesn't seem very fast at all. Seems about right, though. I plugged mine up 9 minutes ago and its only risen 12% since then. Started at exactly 50%.

Keep in mind you're charging a 3600 mah battery, not the 2550 that was in the S6 or 2600 in the S6 Edge. Still impressed that they increased the battery size by 1000 mah.

12% in 9 minutes is pretty quick for a 3600mah battery.

it seems in line with the 100minute charge from 0%.

keep in mind it will slow down as it nears 100% the fastest charge will be from 0-50%

The OTG adapter is a nice touch...

Yeah, mine took almost exactly 50min to go from 59%-100%. Not too shabby, especially since (like you mentioned) the first half is usually a little faster. I'm sure the 100min estimate is spot on.

THIS PHONE IS SEXY.

Yes, I had to scream that

Anyone getting their phones today, do you have a bigger phone such as a Note 4 or Note 5 or similar sized phone that you can post a side by side picture of?

I know this phone will be smaller which is why I ordered one.

Happy Unboxing Day to my fellow tech enthusiasts! Hope your device arrives soon.

I'm happy to report that Nova 3.3 is working great.

3.3 was the last one before it went to the flat/new look. Best one imo.

Edge features work perfect with Nova.

Pre-ordered the Silver, looks amazing!

Free Gear VR and 128GB at Samsung Store.

I was dead set on silver based on online videos - then I went to BestBuy and saw them in person and decided I liked the gold better. The silver was definitely shinier/flashier and I looked at them both from many angles for a long time before settling on the gold. But I do like the way it looks - it doesn't really look as "gold" as I thought it would due to the glass on it and the way it reflects light.

I've been rooted for the last 5 years and therefore, Ad free... I just got on Jump On Demand with the S7.... so unfortunately my rooting days are over. And so is my Ad free experience.

I forgot how crappy and intrusive ads are They're everywhere. And they really bog down the phone in places. Especially browsing.

I was wondering why Chrome was more choppy than my S4..... Ads.

I was wondering why Chrome was way more choppy than my S4. Ads.

Four days after buying my Note 5 a month ago, I rooted it. I will do the same with my S7 Edge. I root my phones just so I can block all those ads in apps and my browsers.

I hear ya.... I went JOD, so unless they come up with a root method that doesn't trip Knox....I'm stuck with Ads

I suppose it's the price you pay for being able to upgrade to every flagship when they're released

I seem to recall Sammy's new browser has an adblocker.... Or you can enable adblocking in it or something. I'll have to check that out.
