I have yet to receive an s7 edge but i was wondering before i do.
Does the paint around the home button, the camera and the hrs and o2 sensor chip easily?
Previous experiences thought me that the paints around those areas chip off rather easily.
Sorry for my bad english
It's covered with glass allover so no, it will not chip.

From what i can see from close up pictures, the painted parts around the camera is not covered by glass.
I might be wrong because ive never even held it in my hands but it looks the same as the chromed part that chips off on the s6 series
Ah, you mean the bezel around the camera and home button. I can't comment on that unfortunately as I've only had the phone a week.

Yeah. Shouldve used the word bezel earlier sorry.
If nobody is having issues after using it for around a month i guess the outcome might end up well for us end users.

Well I attempted to scrape it off (God knows why) and it didn't flake off so hopefully it will be fine.

Hi. I'm thinking of getting the note 2. Considering that it shares many things with the s3 does it have the cracking bezel issue like the s3? Just want to confirm.

I certainly hope not, especially after hearing how Samsung are fobbing everyone off. .. As far as I can tell it was just a problem with the white one's?
Another reason I love the grey
Been using it for around a week now. Its fine so far.
I surely hope that it doesn't have the same issue. Planning on getting a non warrantied one since the difference is $120 compared to one with 1 year warranty.

Mine is perfect as well cant find a fault anywhere,
No cracks here. Mine is white. But that would be a serious problem.
Btw, I had problems with both my SGS II and SGS III DOA's so I would def. pay for warranty.

That's great news! I'm kinda scared to get the white one because of the issues with the s3 but glad to hear the note doesn't have the cracking. I'm still thinking of which one to get, either with warranty or without.
had galaxy s3 white for 4 months and didnt get any issues with bezel or smt like that ;D

Thanks. Appreciate this kind of feedback. I guess I'll just wait for the phone to be released officially here instead of getting an imported unit. 1 week to go. Argh!
Seriously just bummed myself out pretty hard with this one. #1 reason for getting an S4 was the potential of the 13 megapixel camera. The one I just broke!
S4 in my pocket, leaned against something just right I guess, and BOOM! Not really a boom more of a sad sad whimper when I first saw my cracked lens.
I've searched this already, and there is hardly even a mention of this happening on google.
Hoping that someone has good news for me, or hopefully some helpful suggestions!
Ghost Glass on the front, Machined aluminium bumper, and not a thing to protect that stupid little piece of glass (why glass?) over the camera.:crying:

I finally received my camera from China... Quite an interesting trip it must have been for this little thing. About to replace the broken one, wish me luck.
the case is sweet.. I really like that it protects the outside of the phone as that is usually the part to hit the ground first on a drop. I also really like the Ghost glass that I've put on the screen. It feels just like the naked screen and doesn't inhibit the feel of the phone at all. The only thing that seems to not be protected by this setup is the camera... However at $28 a pop, I could think of worse things to happen. I'll be sure to do a quick write up when I'm finished in a few minutes.
Damn this phone is easy to fix. Took me five minutes total to fix.

Can't say where it's from but it's from AT&T directly. Obviously a prototype or test model and it says not for sale on the package. Obviously a Samsung phone, I was scared to play with it much but seems a glass back and front with metal on the sides. I apologize if this is being posted in the wrong section.

Anyone experience this yet?

Yeah that definitely sucks.
Is this the "production issue" that Google CSR's were talking about? If so I am glad my phone is still pending. I hope this is not a wide spread occurrence.
In the Reddit thread I read about this someone asked if they could (the 2 or 3 people this happened to) post the build date of the devices but I don't think it has been provided yet.

Got to be honest...should be receiving mine at the end of the month and this plus the bending, paint chipping and the warped aluminium from the official cases. It's a hell of a lot of money, $700+ in the UK, to throw at a phone that seems to having its fair share of problems. I'm coming from an HTC M8 which has been superb! Also a bit nervous about it.
I find it hard to believe that Google would let hardware this inferior carry the Nexus name. I am not sure what to do with my phone at this point. I guess I can say it on a pillow and never takes it out in the real world.

Its gotten worse with me using it and it getting warm. It didn't do this when I first took it out of the box. I've had it out of the box for about 2 hours and now the sound gets longer and longer. Like more areas of the screen are coming undone.

Kind of true and kind of false. Some of these stores are 3rd party retailers. They have their own inventory and at times have their own promotions. For example the one near my house smells and looks like T-Mobile, but it's owned and operated by a different company.

OK so I had to call like 3-4 times in order to get them to ship me a new one before I send mine back. But it'll be here on Monday. I will say that the screen scratches really easily...

I've heard this from more than one source, it seems like the GG5 is less prone to breaks, but more prone to scratches. On a hardness scale I seen it got scratched at 3 and the S7 edge was like a 7 or 8. Mine is sitting in the box til I get my Xtremeguard and either The Spigen I paid for, or the promos Rinke sent me to review.
