I went with gold for Edge and am loving it. All of my other s class phones were white but opted for gold for this one and don't regret it.

I have the S7 and the S7 Edge. This picture was taken with my Tab S so excuse the quality.

I will tell you I had my heart set on getting a silver one, until I walked in the store and saw how badly fingerprints stood out on it. The gold looked the same. Certainly probably doesn't bother most, but it did for me and I went with the black.

I got the silver because I had a black iPhone and was so sick of black. I loved the silver the first day and now I am regretting the silver. The fingerprints on the silver chrome are crazy annoying

I have the gold and I don think it matters at all. You'll have a case on it and if you'd like can put a skin on the front.
In some kinds of light the gold looks silver.

If you put it in a non clear case, then color is of no meaning. The only time you will see the back, is the day your get it, and the day you sell it.

Yes, it's the same.

I had a white G3 so I chose black. I found the gold and silver to be unforgivably gaudy. I like how the black is properly "blacked out" due to the speaker grill and home button trim being tinted black. A nice touch that separates the S7 from the S6 N5 etc.

Thanks for clarifying that. Yeah I think the color of the black is very nice. It almost has a matte look but at certain angles it glistens lol. I like the silver but the fingerprints are driving me nuts

The white g3 is what ruined me of colored phones. I can't un-see the colored fronts. They're so distracting to me.

I was in the same boat. I never thought I would be buy a gold phone, but it hides fingerprints easier than the black phone. I bought it online Vs seeing in person and it is more of champagne gold which I like more seeing it in person.

I've never cared for the deep blue on previous Galaxy models. I forgot, the camera trim on the back is also blacked out.

The black looks almost stealthy, but I HAD to grab the silver once I saw it in person. I upgraded from the blue S6 Edge which really grew on me, but I wanted something different this time around.Needless to say I'm finding it hard to put this phone down.

The phone is awesome, I agree! (even if we disagree on color selections)

When I settled and got the regular S7, I got gold. When I decided I really wanted the S7 Edge, I got black because that was what was available, and I'm actually loving it, even though I had wanted the silver.
