Best phone I've ever owned. Build quality is amazing, I always get comments asking about it when people see mine of the first time. The silver version is sleek and futuristic looking. Unlike the slabs we see on so many normal phones. Battery life is great and so is the camera.

I came over to the S7E from my trusty Windows Phone, Lumia Icon. I love everything about the S7E. Coming from the Windows Phone, I am having a blast trying out all the countless apps available through the Play Store. I also love having my S7E synced with my Asus Zen Watch 2. With all the notifications now received on my watch, I rarely have to look at my phone unless I intend on doing something with one of those notifications. And I've found the camera on the S7E far surpassed the Icon in imagery and functionality. Soooooo much faster between photos!

I traded my Note 7 in for the S7 Edge and just decided to stick with it. Only thing is I wish it had more GBs

Had the S7E for 6 months. only thing that bothered me was the curved edge.
The Otterbox is a good case to keep you from hitting the edge of the curved screen

Best Buy has the Samsung people there to help you learn how to use your phone , sign up for free classes.
Or they can help you with your phone problems.

My Wife is using the S7E presently and its a Dang good phone.
And NO she does not get on Facebook or social media sites.

I don't like the edge only because it's impossible to buy a glass protection that fits with a case. The phone itself is good. But I've always had Samsung notes before

Wow, some pretty strong words for people to describe how they feel about their phone. From what I am hearing it seems to be more of a user error situation rather than the phone itself. Especially so since Nougat has been released.

Just keep in mind that iOS updates also cause issues:

I really like my iPad Air 2 but iOS 10 was painful at first and I still get compatibility warning popups when opening some apps.

Great ambassador, how about some help? I've contacted AT&T and an app developer and they can't fix the issue.

You didn't ask for help -- you said you were going back to your iPhone ASAP so I said to enjoy the iPhone. You seemed frustrated and didn't seem to want to deal with it and really didn't ask a question.

The phone is fine. But the "edge" feature is misguided. Reasons:

1. User can't hold the phone without touching the screen which causes screen navigation problems.
2. The curve edge of the screen is not responsive for the times that you actually want to touch there.
3. Tempered glass screen protectors can't be used due to the curve.
4. The phone is extremely slippery. It can't be emphasized enough how annoying this is. It even falls out of my pocket!

I will NEVER own another curved screen phone.

Which case you buy on a S7E, really determined how her hands are kept away from the screen.
Samsung learned from the S7E and didn't make a screen as curved
On the S8

Otterbox defender case would really help you.

Simply disable, the crap...
annoying very annoying pre-installed social apps including both WhatsApp and Facebook its wrong becoz of the money deals they sign to preload these apps assuming everyone will use them.

i turn to chrome for Facebook browsing
