Should I switch from my S7edge to v20 ip7 plus? - Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers

I currently have an S7 Edge I got when I had to return my Note 7. Is it worth the money to switch to the V20 unlocked version that BH sells even though it doesn't offer Wifi Calling? Also I hear about the camera glass breaking on it as well easily.
Finally, would the iPhone 7 Plus be a better alternative to the V20?

Is there any particular reason why you want to switch? From reviews I've been seeing from actual users, the V20 can't match the Edge.

I get bored with phones lol. I had the s7 edge back in march, then bought the Note 7 then had to return that and got the Edge. Nearly got the iphone plus instead of the Edge but it was out of stock. Now i see the v20 with a larger screen and more features.
Also better cases for teh v20 that are more protective because it has a flat screen. Im using a Defender for the Edge which this screen protector actually fits tight to the screen but you have to tap hard because it's a thicker kind of plastic. Im thinking about getting Speck candygrip shell for it and sticking with the edge maybe.

we are not the worm in your stomach, why would we know what you want to do? ask yourself that then decide for yourself.
I switch to Iphone 7 for a month, couldnt live without root and xposed then came back to S7 edge.

When I returned my note 7, I tried both and had to return both. The problem you are going to have is the screen quality. Samsung makes the best screens on a smartphone. To me the LG v20 and iPhone was terrible compared to the s7 edge. That is the main reason why I bought the s7e, the screen is amazing. (also camera and battery life was good too.)

iPhone 7 plus
I also wanted to buy iPhone 7 plus but it was out of stock, instead I bought S7 edge. In my opinion, I see LGv20 as a downgrade from s7 edge. There's no doubt that iPhone 7 plus is the fastest phone you can buy. I really miss iMessage, FaceTime, great stand by time, way better app performance and excellent Siri features. However, the only thing you will be missing on an iPhone is Fast charging. That's the only reason I am staying with s7 edge and I hope that Apple releases the next iPhone with fast charging feature.

You won't get wireless charging too.
Windows XP would also run as the fastest OS on PC if you can manage to install it on modern PCs. That's why iOS is so blazing fast. If you're a casual user, iOS may be an option. But for some of us, we feel too limited by it. I can't even set it ti automatically change brightness and screen on time based on what app is in the foreground, at least maybe without having to jailbreak. On Android that's just a couple of minutes to set up.

You won't enjoy your phone much with iphones because of short battery life.

I get bored quickly also I've had my s7e since release, I tried switching to iphone7 plus had for two days couldn't stand it sold it, then I bought a pixel xl which I did like a lot but the camera wasn't as good as s7e, which my wife still had an s7e so I was constantly comparing pics side by side but ultimately I returned the pixel also because I couldn't live with 32gb phone. So now I'm back to my awesome s7e, amazing it still reigns supreme after releasing so long ago. As for the v20, not impressed enough to even want to try it, why aren't you considering pixel xl? I think s7e and pixel xl are androids of the year

If you're bored with a top of the line Android, root it an slap a custom ROM on it.

Only other phone i would consideris the iphone 7 plus if i was wanting to switch. Imessage, facetime and siri all suck! Better app performance is subjective. Been with apple before and hate being limited to do stuff. Battery life is superb with iphones granted that is the only thing i miss. Multitasking is much better on this s7 edge than previous iphones. Havent tried the 7 though but highly doubt much has changed. The s7 edge is the closest thing to the note 7 which i love. Why would u consider a total different ui is beyond me. To each their own but i for one wont be tied by the sack by apple.

There is no auto brightness in ios??? Wtf? Really?
And for you op, you change a lot of phones. Do the mother nature a favor and stick with your s7e. ?

I'm getting bored with my S7 edge, but I would never change to an iPhone because iOS is way to closed. The only way to open it is by jailbreaking it, but Apple is hunting the jailbreak and it's getting harder and harder to jb...
I'll buy a One+ 3T soon, then a One 4 or maybe Pixel 2 depending on the design

Not autobrightness. That's different from what I'm talking about. For example you open a game, you want autobrightness to turn off automatically, then turn on back when you exit a game. Or when going into Chrome, you want screen on time to automatically change from 1min to 10 minutes. That can be done on Android via stuff like Tasker.
But I've never seen any of my friends on iOS have autobrightness. It's always real dark or blinding bright.

Hi. That is correct. Although, if there are no more Edge phones in the future that could curtail development on this one at a more rapid rate. I was also concerned about this with respect to next phone I will buy, which is hopefully a continuation of the Edge series.
it's totally crazy

I can't go back to a normal phone now iv used an Edge phone. It is wrong to not promote a phone properly then stop upgrading, Samsung fail.
I think Note Edge series will be replaced by S6 Edge plus. It will be 5.7' screen and edge screen on both sides.
I'll keep my Edge forever then!

Face it. For good or for bad, we've got the very definition of a Frankenphone.
In spite of all the positive media attention and how quickly it sold out in every market they made it available, Samsung doesn't seem interested in make the Note Edge as we know it part of their yearly lineup.
They seem more interested in tinkering around with their own in-house mobile platform that is completely useless, clunky, and a waste. Oh, and don't forget smart watches - talk about sinking money and manpower into something that is a niche market at best.

The more u see about the note 5, 5 edge (or s6 edge plus) scares me. I cant believe that the note edge was so under appreciated. I loved the hell out of mine. In fact regret getting rid of it especially if there will be no note edge 2. I traded mine for a nexus 6 thinking "in a few months the next version will be out and i will grab one"
The more i see about the s6 plus i am worried that there will be almost no edge function on anymore phones. The fact that the edge had an actual ton more use than the s6 edge really sucks if things are going to be the way they appear

In my opinion S6E+ it only matters for the battle with iPhone. Samsung must take into account NE2.
Well, perhaps there is hope for those that need micro sd. Presumably battery can be pulled too.

And the more gimmicky nearly nonfunctional dual edges. SMH!!
Sadly the Note Edge is more functional than a phone with 2 edges, how the hell is this possible?? LMAO!!!
I hope we see a Note Edge 2 2nd-Q or 3rd-Q 2016

But it seems as though by then and the direction the S6Edge+ and Note 5 are headed in I'll becoming a devoted LG Stylus user, where they don't remove parts and call it a upgrade, such as the microSD Slot and removable battery.

Samsung if I wanted a to buy a iPhone I'd buy an iPhone or ChinAndroid iPhone, quit trying to force your competitors specs on us and call it a better experience and a upgrade, lack of a battery and microSD slot is not a gain no matter how you look at it.

Exchange Edge+ for Note 5?

Hey guys... I've had my gold platinum Edge+ for AT&T since Wednesday and I do like the phone. It looks stunning. But for some reason I'm considering going out today and exchanging it for the Note 5.
The Edge screen is cool but I'm already finding myself not using it a ton. I'm starting to wonder if I will get more use and value out of the S-Pen. Plus the Note 5 is cheaper.
Any opinions? Reasons why I should keep it? Any reasons why I should exchange it?
Thanks!
No reason to keep it if you're already doubting your choice a few days into getting a brand new phone. You'll probably be happier long-term if you switch to the Note 5 while you still can.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
To be honest, I don't expect to use the edge function a ton. But I love the feel of it in my hand and my pocket.
Best is the app that let's you launch your favorite app on the edge screen when your screen is off. Totally worth the Edge for this function alone.

I wouldn't say the Note is better, it just has s-pen functionality. I never used the s-pen on my Note devices so the switch to the Edge+ has been awesome for me! The looks alone make it worth it for me lol.
Just as an update, I did try the Note 5 for a day and I got my Edge+ back. Before this, I had a regular S6. The Note simply felt like a larger version of that with the pen. I never use the pen so this phone is my keeper!
Thanks for the input guys.

I didn't try the note 5, (i was sort of disappointed with it over the note 4) but I think you made the right choice. Especially if you don't see yourself using the s-pen. I actually miss the pen, (last 2 phones where notes) but in love this phone. Glad I went with something different.
I don't find myself using the edge all that much, although that would be different if notifications could pop up on edge by themselves (no swipe), but it's snappy, screen is amazing, and it is the perfect size and feel for my hands.

Well guys, I doubt you care, but I will update you anyways lol.
Tomorrow morning I am returning my Edge+ for the Note 5. For good this time lol. For various reasons, with the biggest being that Costco is offering a $150 gift card and wireless charger if you buy an Edge+ or Note 5 from them.
With that being said, they don't carry the gold Edge+. To be honest, that was the biggest reason I kept the Edge+ over the Note 5...the gold color. Now that my choices are both in black, I think the Note 5 will suit me better in the long run.
To be honest, the novelty of the slightly curved screen and gold color has already almost worn off for me. And I never use the Edge functions already. I know I will use the pen more than these functions.
Another reason is I went to Best Buy tonight to play with the Note 5 again. The screen looks a bit better and brighter to me when I put it side by side with my Edge+. I thought it was in my head at first but it definitely wasn't when I tried various things.
Anyhow, enough rambling. I might check in here every now and again. And I just want to say that this is a fantastic phone! Enjoy it guys and see you around.

I'm thinking of doing the same.. it's a hard decision tho =/. If only they had the Note 5 in gold. This is the first gold phone I've actually liked. I just can't get used to the curved screen for some reason.
I've had many of the note series of phones just for the screen size and never used the pen. In everyday usage the edge is more noticeable and functional on a daily basis, and just looks much nicer to me. I wouldn't trade the edge plus in for anything now haha
Agreed, I had the last 4 Notes and never used the Pen. I just wanted the best phablet that have also software features. Now I use S6 Edge and even though it's very ok in size, I am still a fan of big screens. So the logical upgrade is S6 Edge+ which I'll buy in 1-2 weeks.

I'm not saying this to try and sway you, but I have no regrets about my choice. The Note 5 is simply more functional for me (I like some of the new pen features) and it's easier to handle with less glare on the screen.
I can say that both phones are great, no doubt about it. The Note 5 just fits me better personally.
Good luck with your choice!
i have the old galaxy s6 edge minus, the edge screen doesnt do much ! it' a waste of extra money.
atleast on NoteEdge, you can display Main and Edge screen, 2 independent screen on the screen at the same time !
i have a family plan with 3 lines, so i upgraded to Note5.
there is no Gold note5, but you can slap a gold case on it !
take a look ! S E X Y ! haha

I had the s6 edge+ indeed it's a beautiful phone but the curved screen got me returned for note 5
Galaxy s6 edge+ plus is the best phone. And most handsome good looking beautiful phone in the world.
Anyway good luck with your note 5 I hope you enjoy it.

Galaxy S7 Edge - one handed

Hi,
Coming from a much smaller device (iPhone 5s), i would like to know if it is possible to handle the S7 Edge one handed.
I recently tried a friend's Nexus 6P and as amazing as it is, i couldn't type a message using only one hand without feeling that the phone is going to drop any second, and all of those far stretches with my thumb made my hand tired.
Cheers!
In settings look under advanced features for "one handed operation" play around with that and see if its something that helps

Honestly, coming from an iPhone 5s ( 4 inch phone), it's gonna feel unwieldy. It will most likely feel "too big", however this is probably the most ergonomic "big" phone you will find. I used to have the note series (note 2, 3, 4, not 5), and that was always my biggest gripe. You get used to it but ultimately there was always a moment where I would feel that it was too big (wouldn't fit in cup holder, needed special mount, etc.) I recently switched back to a "normal" sized phone and had the s6 for about a year.
Recently, I switched to the s7 edge. Results: I absolutely love it. Can still one hand the phone, but also have bigger screen. It feels like cheating. Big phone in "normal" phone footprint. To me, Samsung hit a home run in design.
TL;DR - That was a long way of saying, go to your local best buy or electronics store and hold it in your hand. Feel the shape, etc. But ultimately me doing that and then owning it, I haven't regretted it. Btw it fits in a cup holder. [emoji2] Lol

Honestly, I understand the speakers and faster updates. But at this point the benefits of TouchWiz outweigh the benefits of stock to me. Speakers will always be a pain point as long as they are not boom sound lol
As far as USB-C, I will take fast charging everyday over USB-C. When they make a USB-C fast charge, then sign me up.
But honestly, I've been around the phone game a while (see sig lol). This is definitely as close to perfect as you can get. The notoriously iPhone leaning The Verge site even rated S7 edge higher than the iPhones. Take that for whatever it's worth. Good luck, hope you love it. I do.

Yes you can
Its not related to the size of ur smartphone . The exact issue with you , is you are not use to with big screen size . Yes it will take some time but you can use it by one hand
I can comfortably use the device with one hand on many main task like making calls, quick short messages, browse the webs, browse the device... despite the fact that I am a fairly small person (man, 163cm). There is nothing, really, nothing you can complain about this phone. It runs Touchwiz but it is as fast as the stock Android, no more bloatwares and some benefits of touchwiz like edge screen is great. The grip is great, no more discomfort from sharp edges, the device sits nicely in your hands like it belongs there, you will have a hard time putting it down because it feels so good.
Coming from iPhone 6 and I'm absolutely fell in love with the S7e.

Samsung S7 edge

Planning to buy Samsung S7 edge, how is it? need some suggestions before buying.
I just bought S7 Edge today coming from Note 4 N910C and I can say it is really a very good phone. Worth the upgrade
Depends on your current phone but honestly is the best phone I've had the chance to play with. Nothing to complain about here!
What kind of suggestions do you need?
I think it's a great phone. The only other phones I'd consider right now are the htc 10 and the Nexus 6p. I consider the S7 Edge, for my needs and wants, to be better than either. Your needs and wants may be different.
One suggestion: get a case. I've never used cases before, but the S7 is very slippery, and very fragile. I'm using a thin, clear TPU case just to provide better grip, and at least a little protection.
I think this smartphone has everything that you need in a smartphone. Firstly the design of S7 Edge gives you the slimmest feel in your hand without trading off the extra large screen size. Secondly, it's water resistant up to 30 minutes in a depth of 1.5 meters or below. So, I personally suggest you to go for Samsung Edge S7 which happens to be the Best smartphone in 2016

Best phone out right now. Ditched iphone 6 plus.

well I finally got it!! and I'm sooo well how should I put this ?

Ok using it now and I think the Note 7 camera is way better..
The build quality is something I'm not use too.
So now that I got that out the way. WHAT CAN WE DO TO MAKE THIS PHONE BETTER!! It all starts with root..
What do you mean by your comment regarding build quality? Good or bad? I held the store model the other day, it appeared well made, but I didn't examine it for too long.

You can't compare Samsung screens to LG screens because they are completely different displays.

I'll second my love for the Note 7 but until the next Sammy comes out (assuming it'll make up for the N7) I'll enjoy the V20. Sure on many levels it isn't the same as the Note 7 but it's the next best thing in my opinion.

I don't expect this device to be as good as a note 7. But it's gonna have to do for the next best Sammy phone to drop. I don't want a regular S7. An s7 edge is OK but I want something better. Just sold my one plus 3 today and I was enjoying that phone. I get my V20 tomorrow so I figured I'd get rid of it. The ZTE axon 7 looks good too. Then again it's a ZTE lol. Time will tell if the V20 makes it. Hoping it does as I got it for 575 lol

I have been a long time Samsung user, I have had every Note since the Note3 and the Note7 just didn't impress me much. Build quality was great but I really didn't like the edge screen. I had the S7 Edge too and while the Note7 edge screen was better, I still prefer a flat screen. The Note7 also felt too skinny and tall. I just wasn't that upset about returning it.
So far I am really liking the V20, maybe I just needed a change. The V20 has many things going for it so to me it is just a different phone, NOT saying it is in any way a less phone than the Samsung's. Having had the Note7 and now the V20, if I had the choice between the two right now, I would choose the V20.

Well I also said in the OP that there are some dislikes and yes I can return it but there are no deal breakers.. See if you see in the OP I said what can we do to make this phone better ..
I actually like the phone . Maybe an update to fix the lag of camera. If and when we get root a lot of my issues could be resolved . just wanted to see if any one else had any issues coming from another device ..but yes lets make this phone a little better..

UGH camera lag really on a phone of these specs?? How bad is it? That's been my biggest gripe about my Note 4 other than it being ATT. Do you think its just a software issue?? How bad is it?
I'm intrigued by this camera lag. What part of the process is the lag being seen. The unit I played with in an AT&T store didn't seem to have any. I'll be disappointed if there's a difference in carrier models in this regard.
I don't have any camera lag, Im coming from a 6p and Note 7

lol the S7 is pretty much identical to the Note 7, and i've been bored of the S7 and it's stuttery goodness for months now. i'm excited for the V20. and it's going to be a nice change of pace having an LCD screen again; the amoled on my S7 sucks. color shift from top to bottom and it's just annoying. AMOLED is nice, but QC sucks.
