    The battery life is fantastic. Getting around the Apps and internal features is really easy.

    I got this to replace my Samsung Galaxy Light, and it's very nice. It heats up a little sometimes, but it's light in my hand and has great picture quality and RAM.

    This phone works great. It does everything it supposed to do. Although, installing a cleaner app helps with battery life, to kill running apps in the background.

    S7 delivers....

    I'm loving my S7 just as I loved my S5 for 3yrs. The 128GB memory card it holds is the best addition they could have added. The only change I don't like is the double tapping of the home key for the camera start. I like how that feature started the voice control in the S5 better. If I have to touch the app to use the voice app, it defeats the purpose.... This water phone is awesome though and the sale price I got it for was well worth waiting a few months after launch.

    I bought this inexpensive sound bar to try, and I must say I am pleasantly surprised at the quality of sound. It makes a difference to have a speaker in front rather than the back of the TV.

    Very fast phone and with it being last year's model, it's a lot more cost effective. Everything on the phone is easy to use and the camera is also amazing!

    I wanted a Samsung Galaxy that would work with my Verizon pre-pay account. This phone does everything I wanted and more. Battery life is great! Our Best Buy also has the most helpful employees, specifically a girl named Rachel, who was incredibly patient, knowledgeable and helpful in transferring everything from my old Samsung that did not work with the transfer software installed in my new Galaxy.

    Technology isn't stable like it used to be

    In general it seems technology is getting less stable and dependable (whether new versions of smart phones, wireless PowerBeats3 headphones, etc) though customers are asked to pay more and more ... but for what? In the past two weeks, my 18 month old Samsung Galaxy S5 started fading as well as a pair of PowerBeats3 wireless headphones purchased 45-60 days ago. The Samsung Galaxy S5 had been free with an AT&T cell plan renewal, and the headphones had been under $130. The new phone and replacement PowerBeats3 headphones combined cost roughly $800+. In the two weeks having these two new products, the PowerBeats 3 totally pooped (volume buttons don't work, but occasionally the volume adjusts when you press the button to connect/disconnect a call, seems the headphones are charging/charged with the white light appearing but then when trying to turn them on it's a crapshoot that doesn't correlate to whether the light is orange or white, phone says the headphones are connected but then there is nothing on the headphones, sometimes the headphones pair sometimes they don't -- again just a crapshoot o what will happen, up to 1.5 hours can be spent going through all the PowerBeats3 instructions to reset the phone when all the above happens, but again -- crapshoot on the outcome, and then when sound can be heard, without touching the phone or headphones at all the sound may just go to zero on its own). And that is just the headphones. Now the Samsung Galaxy S7 ... it occasionally just starts flittering between any two apps it wants (again, without me touching the device), i go to Samsung's Help team in Best Buy and they say there is an update to 7.0 that needs to run so they queue that to run, I get home and let it run overnight but then the phone says it can't complete the update (after having 10+ hours to run), then the phone says that there is a different update that needs to run to update my apps (which of course you really can't decline because you just get. Locked or frozen from doing anything until complying), So I comply ... and the result -- Now the phone tells me it can't complete that update either but it has already altered my email on the phone (which had new working fine -- thank God one thing worked somewhat right for a while) and now I can't use email on the phone from the built in email app o n the device and get directed to the Google Play store. Quite frankly ... what the heck am I paying for in all this!!! Shouldn't your stuff work in the first place, and if it doesn't and you make a fix/patch, then Shouldn't that actually fix things or make them better rather than going the opposite direction or disrupting the built in apps/functions the phone comes with? The only thing I get out of all this is that now when little App icons appear on the phone, they do have a nice little bubbly look to them -- which I suppose is what should really matter as opposed to things like the phone being able to work or send an email or not come up with a mind of its own versus enabling me, the guy who is now paying $800+ for technology that 18 months ago I was paying collectively $130 for (AND IT WORKED GREAT THEN), being able to actually functionally utilize the equipment for what it should be a me to do ... unless of course what really matters in the end is having bubbly looking App icons and no sound for $800+. Does anyone know what the heck is actually happening in all this technology?
