Big ole battery? 3000mah just like the note 5.Edge version definitely has my attention. That big ole battery and new camera are very appealing.
From my AT&T Platinum Gold Note 5

Better camera? How do you figure? Same specs and features other than the note 5 has a 16mp and edge 7 has a 12, but the focal and aperture are the same.
Smaller screen too. Only advantage I see is waterproofing, but thats no different than what my redpepper case does.

Yeah I read the specs on the s7, not the edge. My bad. As far as always f1.7 over f1.8, thats not a big deal to me. I dont do 4:3 paper prints, I do 16:9 digital prints so f1.8 works fine. Like I said, I have a waterproof case, and if I want to take wet photos I have a GoPro.Let's compare the Note 5 to the S7 Edge, because size is close. The battery is bigger, combined with the improved processor this should give a noticeable bump in battery life (that's not counting Doze!).
The camera will probably be better in some situations but the same in others. Aperture is not the same on the two devices. Note 5 is f/1.8 while S7 Edge is f/1.7.
Waterproofing without use of a case is an advantage.
I like the Note 5 a lot, but I don't take advantage of the stylus and I got it mostly because the S6 had pretty bad battery life. I'll probably be picking up the S7 Edge. If I actually used the stylus more I would just keep the Note 5, it's still a great phone.
That's the most tempting feature for me. I actually prefer internal memory only for security.Try 3600 mAh for the Edge.
Poor excuse when the s7 has microsd card support up to 200gb.The S7 only has 32GB internal storage. Not enough compared to the Note 5 with 64GB internal storage. I'm staying with the Note series regardless, and I hope that the Note 6 has an option for 64GB internal storage + SD card.
