I've been thinking about upgrading to the unlocked S7.
Does anyone know if Samsung Pay works on the unlocked version such as those at Best Buy?

unlocked exynos version may not support out of the box.. snapdragon versions do.. but you can always flash the Firmware from specific region that supports spay..

That's what I did and it doesn't require root..

I think the biggest downside to buying international version is the lack of warranty

For the meantime, wish I could find that firmware for my unlocked S6.
Care to share some specifics or a link?

check for firmware files on SamMobile. Simply download an app called phone info from playstore.. identify the csc, and other firmware specific info from the app.. Then head to SamMobile search for your desired firmware.. make sure it is compatible and then flash it through odin..
