Poor Design

Coming from S6 Edge +
The design of the
S7 edge makes it unusable..
Reaching slightly across the screen your palm now touches the edge because of the curved back..... it refuses to recognise touches because of that...
I like the feel and it looks good but even typing is a chore and difficult.....
Think I'll be sticking with the S6Edge +

Everyone has a diffrent opinion. I guess the S7 edge is not suited for you. Well, have you tried using other cases? I think a case that suits with you should make the S7 edge easier to handle.

I find the touch screen quite sensitive but that is more for accidental presses when scrolling. As far as edge detection is concerned I haven't had a single problem. Maybe it's how I hold it in don't know but I don't think the screen wraps far enough round to be much of a problem

I have the few accidental touches on the screen but nothing that makes it unusable.

I'm still waiting for the update to hit my device. But I don't really have a issue with palm rejection. Couple of times it hit but I've gotten used to it.

I too found the edges to be way too sensitive and typing with the keyboard in particular was frustrating to say the least. Since popping it in a case however it has drastically improved :)

To each his own. The s6ep felt comfortable to hold. I use a case on both. I much prefer the s7e with the curved back.
