Blows any other phone on the market away. Cannot beat a phone with water resistance, best camera on a phone, internal liquid cooling, large battery! Oh and it's not an iPhone, that is a huge bonus!! My wife loves it. She is always taking pictures of the little one now. So glad it has expandable storage.

Bought this phone as an upgrade to my daughters S5 on our family plan. The phone is the perfect size, and has operated flawlessly, with good battery life, and a great screen. Much much better/faster camera than on the S5. The bummer is, ATT does not do free or low cost phone upgrades anymore, so had to join the ATT next program. I hate that program, I ran the numbers, and it does cost more than the old program. But no choice on that. Best Buy did have a great deal where we got a $200 best buy card for trading in the old phone. The best buy personnel handled the transaction very smoothly, and transferred everything from the old phone to the new one. Awesome job.

I have been waiting for a cell phone like his to come along for years. Having the removable storage is fantastic. There have been some removable storage but never enough. Now I have upto 200 gb. I replace an IPOD with this cell phone!! The camera is just wonderful!! This is truly is an all in one device!! Oh, the phone works great too!! LOL

Absolutely their best phone yet. The camera is awesome, graphics excellent and battery life is not bad. The size and overall design is very comfortable in hand and being waterproof is truly a relief.

Even though the design is a bit outdated, compared to the curved screens of newer phones nowadays, I still consider this phone to be great regarding performance. Camera is the same one as the S8, but about $300 (more if you can score a deal/promotion) cheaper. If you can't justify getting an S8, then go down a model and you'll still have everything the S8 offers with very few shortcomings when compared.

I upgraded from the Galaxy S5 and S4 prior to that so needless to say I'm a Samsung fan.The rest of my family uses iPhone so I have enough to compare with. What can I say other than its a great smartphone. Fantastic pictures in well lit areas and a huge improvement over the S5 in low light. Combined with micro SD slot (currently have 128GB) I can take a ton of photos and videos and not worry about space.
Its fast and battery life is OK. I find I charge it a little more often than the S5 when it was new. There are A LOT of factory apps that should be removed/disabled along with the ATT bloatware to improve battery.
My only gripe was fining a tempered glass screen protector and a case to fit both. This took some trial and error with different products but eventually worked out.

One of the best phones I've ever had, if not the best. Durable, not too big, great screen, fast, plenty of storage plus expandable memory slot.

I loveeeee 99% of the upgrades here (I previously owned a Samsung Galaxy s3) The rear facing camera is like a mini professional camera. I have had issues with forward facing camera being a little blurry and some lenses on snapchat dont appear. I STILL hate the pre-loaded apps that just waste space BUT appreciate the expandable memory. The charger charges very quickly. Since I hadnt upgraded in years, the phone transitions and runs much smoother and faster than before. I love the quality of Samsung products and have been a fan for years.

I reluctantly switched to Samsung after I learned that AT&T would not be selling the new HTC One (M10 I think?) Buying an unlocked one was just out of my price range, so I was debating between this phone and an iPhone. Because of the durability and my familiarity with Android OS, I got a Samsung.
I'm still getting used to this phone, especially with the location of certain apps or settings. For instance, it drives me up the wall that I can't see my entire gallery from the Camera. I have to go into the app tray and then to Gallery if I want to see instagram, screenshots, etc. The camera on this phone is phenomenal, though. (Not sure how it compares to other new phones since my old HTC was 3 years old) Even photos in low-lighting have nice exposure without blowing out lights or faces. The colors are a bit saturated, which bothered my dad who is a camera nerd, but I'm fine with it.
The battery usually lasts a day or more, depending on usage. One of the best features is the fast charge, which will charge it from 15-20% (I usually don't let it die completely) to 100% in about an hour. Another feature I love is the Do Not Disturb, which I think is pretty standard now, but I still love it. The sound could definitely be improved. My old HTC had 2 front facing speakers so music (without headphones) sounded pretty good. The only speaker on this phone is a teeny one on the bottom. Music sounds tinny and metallic, but speakerphone is okay. I also hate the location of the speaker. I have small hands and have to hold my phone underneath with my pinky and I often cover up the speaker accidentally. Or if I'm laying down, I'll set the phone on my chest and that will muffle the sound.
The fingerprint reader is a nice feature, but it often takes a few tries to work, which is annoying. It also won't work if your hands are wet. Actually, all of the touch response is not the best if your hands are wet. This isn't the Edge model, but I still struggled with accidentally pressing buttons on the sides of the screen whenever I stretched my fingers across to press a button. This was alleviated with a case, though.

It had been a while since I had upgraded. Previous LG owner and was hesitant to jump to the galaxy but the LG g5 was a little bigger than what I wanted
being with the phone now for over a month, this is what I like.
great battery life
great pictures
obviously faster since my LG was already a couple of generations old,
dislikes
volume, poor on ringtones, notification and calls.
On a note, I did had a chance to try out an s6 for a few days and didn't notice much difference or little improvement on the s7 over the s6.
so if you want to save a few bucks you can't go wrong with an s6

I jumped reluctantly from my s4 (which I totally loved) to this one. I needed a better camera, and this one is amazing. What I did not expect was that everything about this phone would be soooooo much better. Battery is impressive, and the screen is amazing. Swiping is how I communicate, and this phone is fast and accurate. Video is great too. I'm sure I'll discover even more things I like about it as time goes by. Yayyyy, Samsung....and yayyyy Best buy for the great sale price :-)

The Galaxy S7 surpasses the S5 that we had before. It keeps the positives of the S5. The S7 has a more powerful processor and twice the built in storage. This helps with downloading music and video. It is water resistant and easier to plug the charger cable into. It charges much faster. But most of all, the learning curve is less since much of what we learned on the S5 Android system carries over.

My third Galaxy phone...coming from S3...yea I didn't want to give up a perfect working phone. Love that phone and won't be selling it.

Battery life is excellent and charges much faster than s3....love the wireless charger. Even with my speck clear case it charges. Fantastic phone....as usual I hold will hold onto the 7 galaxy for 2-3 generations.

After picking up the S7 Edge, I needed another phone to replace the aging iPhone 5C my wife had. The S7 was the ideal fit, better quality camera, Android 6.0 OS is very quick and smooth. I've owned numerous Galaxy phones, and this is one I can see holding onto for a long time. Past phones didn't pack the punch, quality and features. Water resistance, high quality screen and camera were the main focus points on why we purchased.

This phone does everything and even better. The pictures that this phone takes, who needs a professional photographer anymore? This phone does not feel cheap at all! Water resistance, I can take phone phone everywhere, even in the rain or at the beach without worrying that I would get it water damaged. Phone is super fast, no more need for a computer anymore! Love, love, love this phone!!
