Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (2016)

Why s7 edge can never be as smooth as Oneplus 3 or google pixel ?? – I might have to declare one thing once and for all.....there’s absolutely nothing wrong with this phone except the latency and smoothness I mean just to switch between apps or general web browsing when there was absolutely no additional added apps ..... was still not very smooth..... if you have used a pixel or Oneplus phone then you know what I… Read more

am talking about ..... and I wonder why ?? Also the phone heat up quite easily if you use it as a wifi hotspot for other phone while doing activities on the phone ..... even very minor web browsing will cause the phone to heat up very very quickly ..... the phone also will start to slow down less than one month of usage if you start to put more apps into your phone .......

The only thing that’s good about the phone is it’s display and design

But then again who’s going to get a phone just for its look while user experience is extremely unpleasant

Out of all 2016 flagships I’ve used this is by far the worse

Huawei mate 9 is a lot more pleasant to use and doesn’t slow down with time ...... with a better camera and more importantly a bigger battery that last much I mean MUCH longer .....basically can go whole day without charging and that’s with heavy usage ...... with s7 edge I need to top up twice a day at least and that’s with light to medium usage

Another thing which was pretty kool was I got this phone with just aud 250 because the back was slightly cracked and I was the only one that bid on that phone in ebay so I was pretty lucky

Overall I am disappointed with this phone and because of this I simply do not wish to use a Samsung phone again

Great phone, expandable storage to 256GB & exceptional service from Samsung live chat – This is larger than my last Samsung, but I still love the weight and feel of the phone. My family and friends usually ask me to take photos when we are out due to the amazing photo quality. Samsung has lots of great apps, and it is very easy to transfer data from your old phone. I have been able to organise my apps into folders to save… Read more

clogging up the screen.

Smart switch allows you to easily back up all the phone information in case of any issues. I found this very handy recently when I bought a 256GB from a dodgy seller. So not Samsungs fault (mine!).

I find the phone very intuitive and easy to use! I really cannot think of anything negative to say about the phone, and I'm sure someone with more technical knowledge could outlines the phones other features better than I am.

I did not find the face to face support from Samsung to be very motivated or helpful. In contrast, the Samsung Live Chat team are phenomenal. They will spend as long as it takes to help you resolve an issue. I have accessed Live Chat twice. Once when I wanted to check the best backup method and how to perform it. The second time a rep spent well over an hour with me on live chat. This was due to a SD card issue from an Ebay vendor - but they knew this and still tried everything with me to back up & test the phone and the SD card. Amazing, thanks Mary (from 25/04/2018 live chat).

Outstanding phone – Best phone I have every owned. November 2019 and still going strong. no intentions of upgrading. The only issue I have seen is that the screen is a little fragile and can get damaged easily Show details ·  1

Good phone – This is my first Samsung phone, I have been using this phone for last three years. Haven't had any issues, performs very well. The apps run smoothly. Love the fingerprints scanner, it's pretty fast and works instantly. The phone started to get slow last year, fixed by uninstalling unnecessary apps and reset it back to factory settings. Would definitely purchase another Galaxy S series.  Show details

Still good enough to get the job done – Once you chuck on a case most phones almost look the same, and this is the main deterrent from me buying a current generation phone. The Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge still performs strongly today even though it's now two generations old. It is quick and responsive with a really sharp screen, so you could spend something more getting the latest and… Read more

greatest but the experience won't be a whole lot better than what the S7 Edge can already provide. I definitely recommend this phone for someone who is looking for a good Android phone and I believe it's one of the last few flagship phones with a physical home button.

In summary, if this phone breaks/dies I'd probably consider buying another one.

Worked fine until two years but died after update from Samsung – I bought this phone in 2017 as I liked the phone, the curved screen and its features. Last month in October after a update from Samsung, it frequently started hanging and restarting for no reason and then suddenly didn't turn on on one day. And this happened only after the update and immediately when the two years of warranty finished. I think… Read more

this was intentionally from Samsung!!! Samsung customer service told me that they will charge 300 euros for it and the motherboard has died. But how can it happen suddenly? What a waste of money!!! Over 700 euros device has such terrible internal components!! I would never ever recommend any Samsung products! Cheap internal quality devices!!!

Worst phone – Not satisfied at all after all the phone is extremely fragile would never buy Samsung any more have been using Samsung since it came out s5 s7 turned out to be faulty Show details

This was a perfect phone, But – This phone made by Samsung was perfect, I loved the 5.5" vibrant Oled screen with Always-on-display, One problem though, It developed a single pink line that went top to bottom. Show details ·  1

Good dependable phone – I am still using this phone, I changed to another phone and use this as my backup phone. It’s still great, only thing, it’s a bit slow now so that’s why it’s not my main phone. It is small and compact and works well. The Android phone has a heart rate monitor with finger touch and you can unlock with your finger sensor. It’s a good dependable phone.

Perfect and Easy to use – Its compact The colour is Perfect. Its size is a right fit for my hand and the Edge itself is A Comfortable Fit. Pictures, Font, Sound Quality is Awesome for myself and Husband Show reply

Bad – Was good for a year, but after two years apps started to not open properly and crash. Phone freezes all the time despite half storage still available. Was good to use while it was still working, camera quality quite good. Brightness is good, durability of screen is good as I've dropped it and it doesn't break.  Show details

quite good looks and reliablility – I have been using it over 2.5 years now , and its amazing , very good and perhaps my best samsung mobile ever . I am really happy and it has sleek and stylish looks to compliment it . So really impressed with it . I hope they remove a lot of samsung related crap that is never used.  Show details

Awesome Absolutely love it – I know this phone has been replaced by by the S8 model but you can still purchase these. They are a fantastic phone. Never had a problem with it since the day I got it almost 2yrs ago. Long battery life, good camera, goood storage, great features. Perfect for those who don't want the bigger model phone. Can't recommend it highly enough. July… Read more

29th 2018 Update: Love my this phone

I know this phone has been around for while but I wanted to give a quick review. This is a great phone has really great features easy to use lovely round edge. Good camera Good size too. If your still in the market for a great Samsung Galaxy s7 edge smartphone and can't afford the newer ones this is a great option. I've never had a problem with this phone has plenty of storage. Long battery life. Really can't recommend this phe highly enough. Has all the samsung apps. Just love it.

pretty great, but interface annoying and keyboard less accurate than iphone – I converted from iPhone to this and I'm generally very happy with it. The keyboard is less accurate than on the iphone which makes for somewhat annoying texting, and I wish they had indeed gone ahead with the smaller version as the screen size makes usage a bit annoying. Battery life is great  Show details

GPS problems – It is a great phone. But it has a lack of GPS navigation. The battery is great. Lasts for ages. The phone processor works fast. Anyway, GPS is not working. Think it is just the gps modem. We tried many different things to fix it, but still had no success. Bright high resolution screen. Very stylish phone. Think on getting a gps navigator!) Purchased on eBay, do not know if we can get it repaired. Only give 4 stars because of the GPS.  Show details

Expensive but the best – The edge offers a great looking display as it curves around the screen but i did have to put a phone case to stop my palm accidentally touching the screen. Camera is top quality with sharp images and takes good photos in the dark. Prone to screen cracks if dropped which cost $300 to repair because of the edge screen. Have not had any phone or software issues so do recommend.  Show details

Still happy with my phone after 7 months – Still happy with my Samsung galaxy S7 edge phone after 7 months. I have now talked my wife in to taking a Woolworths plan for her phone. after 2 months she is also happy. No surprises

Fantastic phone. Wouldn't have another – I have had my.phon3 for almost 2 years and love it as much as they day I got it Excellent camera. Fast working. Great sound and awesome edge features The Google play music app was a disappointing but found another free app that works great. Highly recommend this phone and I don't normally like mobiles  Show details

Great phone – Good size screen with a cool function of being able to swipe from the edge to bring up selected apps. Easy to use, camera takes good pics. I upgraded from a Blackberry so it's awesome compared to that. Great usability and i'd definitely recommend it to others to buy it.  Show details

This phone is excellent – Great phone with nice size screen that goes right to the edge. Has excellent functionality and clear speakers. The camera is great and takes good pics. It has plenty of storage space and is very user friendly. An all round easy to use good size phone, not too big and not too small.  Show details

Very solid phone – I upgraded from the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 (which unfortunately did not work out), to the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge. I've stuck with this phone despite the opportunity to upgrade the the S8. It's just simply a great phone, incredible screen quality, great multi-tasking capabilities, expandable storage, good quality speaker, the battery life is… Read more

incredible in comparison to previous phones I have dealt with (Samsung Galaxy & Apple iPhone). Gotta compliment the screen strength after the number of times I have dropped it (absolutely no cracks)

Great product overall – I love this phone. It is worth upgrading from any Samsung phones below the s7. I went from s5 to s7 and it's so worth it especially when you could pay as low as $350 on eBay or even less. i really enjoy the multitasking features in the phone. The look of the phone is very sleek looking and nice as well. The only downside is that the phone gets quite hot after extended periods of time. Battery life is about average as well.  Show details

Nice, Practical and stylish phone – I have has this phone for two years now and it's been quite sturdy and durable. The display is very clear and the processor is able to process the things I use on it well. the speakers are not as loud as some other phones but still loud. It is waterproof and from personal experience dropping it in a pool, it was still was working fine. the edge is… Read more

also very stylish, but if you don't do much with it, splashing out on the edge is not worth the money as I don't even use it. it's just there for the looks for me. also harder to find cases and screen protectors for. Overall product very good

Best Phone I ever used – The best phone I ever used until I got Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus. The camera is very good even on today, it's still a top camera phone. The only problem is my S7 edge's charging port was loose and cannot charge any more. But thanks for the wireless charging I still can get it full fully charged.  Show details

Love this item – Love this phone. So quick and easy to use. Much better apps then iPhone No issues with the phone so far & sad that my contract is up in April - going to a sim only plan! Fast internet, messaging, email, camera, etc - everything I need & more! Very happy customer  Show details

I loved it but – I don’t like that the back is glass, and the front is so easy to break and costs an arm and a leg to replace.. so once I cracked it after 1 month brand new the screen had gone black. It is very disappointing, it was my first phone away from Apple since the iPhone 4 came out and I have gone back and I am stuck with a plan for a Samsung and am using my iPhone again..  Show details

Great screen – I was happy with my upgrade to the Samsung S7 Edge, I like the ease of use with this phone. It is very intuitive. The device is so adaptable to suit your preferences. Takes a great photo even in low light. I like I was able to put a micro sd for extra memory storage.  Show details

Lovely screen and size – I've had this phone for 2 years now and it's still my daily phone. Pros: - Love the screen. Great colours, contrast, and brightness - The overall design of the phone has held up great. It can easily pass of as a 2018 phone! - Expandable memory. Cons: - Hard to find a good screen protector due to the curve - Wish the screen size was a little bigger - Camera could be better  Show details

Great phone. Best features – It is an excellent buy with all the awesome features that you can expect from a high-end phone. Though after a couple of years of use, it heats up very quickly and extremely that at times I think it is going to explode. The worst part is that the battery is not replaceable. Otherwise, great phone.  Show details

Couldn't live without it – Their 7 Edge is a very good durable phone goes well with the br does over he little but it's been amazing phone I dropped it it's got some cracks but it's still going he well-being waterproof so good feature the camera on it's amazing text the talk is even better  Show details

Love it... Just dont drop it – Love this phone, had it for almost 2 years and actually dont want to upgrade. Highly recommend getting it insured though. I smashed the screen when it was 2 weeks old and they are extremely fragile, if i hadnt had it insured it was going to cost $600 to fix.  Show details

Great phone – Beautiful display, easy to use, a great phone if you like Android smart phones. Great battery lift then the S7 makes it worth the upgrade to the edge only negative i have is it is hard to find a case and a damaged screen can be expensive to replace if damaged  Show details
