Hey Phil! Since the GS7 has the same waterproof rating, what would be the biggest selling point for the Active over the GS& proper?
Great review & thanks for taking the time to do it. With your job, you have new devices constantly. But for those of us updating every couple years, the details are much appreciated. Now to decide if the battery is worth the $100 over the reg S7 as I would use a holster type case anyway(work related issue).
As usual with these sorts of forum threads, here's my multi-part question for different parts of the phone. Get ready, Phil.
How many hours do you get on a full-charge on your usual usage? Include SOT numbers if possible.
Compared to the standard GS7, how durable is it? I imagine with that sort of construction, it should take a bit of a beating, though not to extreme degrees.
How's the fingerprint-sensor? The same as you'd find on the standard model in terms of speed and accuracy?
On a scale of 1-10, how would you rate the annoyance of AT&T's bloatware?
Can you reprogram the Active key?
What sort of glass is used on the display? Gorilla Glass 4 or a different type of strengthened glass?
That pond skip looks amazing. How many takes did you need?
Finally, the age-old question. Titanium Gray, Sandy Gold or Green Camo?
Wouldn't proper buffered corner sections have been more useful, though it would ruin the aesthetics for some.
As it is, is the screen more recessed when flat down, than... well most phones.
Were any mallards or ducks harmed in the making of the video.
Does it work with Gear VR?
Phil...
If you would please..how does it sound as compared to the regular s7 and s7 edge. If you haven't already done a side by side with them will you..
Thanks

How do you find the fit/finish of the S7A. I realize this is not a S7 Edge with a fancy metal backing, but do you find the buttons have a solid feel to them?
How did you find the finger print sensor, did it work the majority of the time you used it?
Good morning. Was curious if anyone on staff had a reg S7 by ATT nearby to see if there were any measurable dbm differences in signal? The reasoning for the question is metal/glass vs plastic/poly body & if either affected reception. If not, no worries. Will check in the store once they are released. Had a S6A last year with no issues signal wise.
