Galaxy S7 Edge no Doubt Stylish Phone

Apart from its battery explosion, overall this device is marvelous in design structure, the edge style was a unique concept of samsung galaxy, that really caught consumers attraction, and now Galaxy S8 and S8 plus has come to full fill more requirement for consumers
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] jshamlet:
Ok, I'm going to have to amend my comment. Something has happened with the Nougat builds that makes the onscreen keyboard a complete PITA to use. It ignores keypresses a lot, which is strange because the actual hardware is fine (I did a calibration on the touch screen and it came back fine). Unfortunately, the keyboard is now so hard to use that I find myself secretly contemplating switching over to my wife's iPhone 6S plus when she upgrades this summer - it's THAT bad.

Jeez, Samsung, how hard is it to keep the freaking keyboard lag under control?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] Biregani:
It's a great phone. I used to love it when I bought it and I still do. But after seeing the Note 8, I think I'm going to cheat on my phone ?. Even S9 and S9+ couldn't win my heart but Note 8 means something else to me.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] BitPlease:
I see international versions had different colors than the ones in US. I mean why do samsung do that? I love the international versions because of the leeway they provide.

You should try Samsung Galaxy S8 ACTIVE. It's really good when it comes to screen edges as it has almost NONE
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] pingufanpoy:
wish it had ir emitter and better speakers

everyone is amazed when they see it

looking at the back when its cleaned looks like your rich as f***

great display too

just got a used exnyos for 300 dollars used no dents or scratches

loving the quality on it

its like no one has ever seen a curved screen smart phone before
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] الفلسطيني:
What do you mean? By U firmware
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] Eggleston11:
Excellent phone. Excellent performance and features, great looks and amazing battery life. Good development scene for my version 935F only increases this overall impression. To top it all off, it's quite water resistant. No regrets. 9.5/10

very few and minor cons:

-physical home button rather than pressure sensor home button in theory can wear out. Just my obsessive compulsive nature lol.

- curved edge made it annoying to find a screen protector that doesn't get lifted off by case.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] waingro808:
U firmware is Unlocked USA version; not carrier branded, so way less bloatware.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] visualpro:
Hello,

You simply use Odin and used the U firmware on your SM-G935T ?

Thank you@!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] jshamlet:
Mine started life as a 935A, but yes. You do have to use the modified Prince Comsy Odin when changing major versions like this, though.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] AngeloGR:
I love it but i don't use it as my Note 4. I have the gold color and it looks like jewel! Beautiful but fragile with the all around glass! I don't allow anyone else from the family to touch it or use it!

I have the original Samsung Flip cover book case in gold color from the very first day and now after one year of use it is still like new. No scratches, no signs. Like i bought it today. As my other love the Note 4!

It is still with original Samsung rom, unrooted. I will never root it or flash another rom. It is prefect on all the ways.

I only have installed the S8 launcher apk and it looks like the S8 now!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] aldoblaga:
Overall love? TOO DAMN HIGH.

I know benchmarks don t speak the whole truth but trust me, since getting the oreo update and already having a note 8 to compare the experience with...there s NO DIFFERENCE to feel for the casual user.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] s7edgefan:
This is the first phone i have kept over a year without upgrading... absolutely in love with my s7 edge (g935fd)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] SkylineDriver:
My Verizon S7E will be 4 years old this weekend (4/10/20). Looks brand new, runs smooth as silk (once I rooted and debloated it), and has never given me one ounce of trouble. The only thing that wore out was the charging cable and that is not the phones fault. I will continue to use this phone until it finally kicks the bucket.

God help me then, for I have no idea what will be a worthy replacement as I have no use for all the gimmicky crap being offered these days (another topic entirely).

Viva la S7edge!

You're a power user. Can the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge keep up? Rate this thread to express how "healthy" the development scene is for the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge. A higher rating indicates available root methods, kernels, and custom ROMs.

Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] CuBz90:
It's a bit too early for this IMO.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] tiskewlio:
While its still took early since most people still havnt gotten their devices and devs usually don't have the money to throw at upgrading phones right when they come out, I hope that we will have a few solid devs here and create amazing ROMs. Not to mention the cm and aosp support we should see with the 820 varient.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] squallz506:
Isn't the bootloader locked on all USA carriers? I know my Verizon one is. We'll be lucky to even get root.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] kaybox3:
Do you think we'll get xtrestolite for the s7?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] CptCrackers:

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] jfreund:
Samsung is starting to think they're Apple.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] TheAugust:
I feel like I'm wishing for the impossible to get root within 6 months on Verizon's S7e.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] MorningStarGG:
Personally I just bought the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge G935F (International Unlocked) version. I'm hoping development of roms picks up soon but until then at least I have root and the ability to make changes.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] Bernard23:
There are some great roms out for the g935F imo. Renovate and kryxxos both have very active forums and are making good progress. I'd say the development for the European variant has a pretty solid community so early on
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] Semseddin:
I am happy to use it as is from factory. No need for root or roms here.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] TheAugust:
There is always a need for root. Removal of bloatware, ability to link apps2SD, etc. It may be (and is) incredibly functional at stock state, but I'm dying for root access.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] Semseddin:
That is why i said here, not there.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] jason11:
Me too, for now it is very speed & smooth, may be after release of Android N, I may reconsider my decision. For now I am ☺
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] Semseddin:
Coming from a Nexus 6 used with stock/unrooted. i don't know why if it is a lollipop or marshmallow thing but rooted devices don't run as stable as they used to run like they did until kitkat. S7 Edge provides everything i need out of the package, i can disable whatever bloatware i don't need. So, i don't really see myself rooting for the sake of having root. :good:
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] jason11:
Samsung slow in updates, they still haven't updated MM to S6 , just started in some countries. But, I think they will do the same with Android N to S7, So if you want to taste early Android N, you need to have CM.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] liamstears:
Too early for this thread me thinks

Takes time for devs to bring us great things

In the meantime though I've been able to make quite a killer rom myself based on the latest G935FXXU1APCI TUR release and modded in xposed, root, removed knox and added in wifi-calling that I can use on UK EE :D
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] J.Biden:
So... are owners of the Snapdragon version voting and commenting in this thread? If yes, that won't really be fair since the SD version is locked down.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] Rickyzx:
Xda developers

I agree with you MorningStarGG. I hope that company will think about it.

Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] raulongo:
Tripping Knox is something I want to stay away from.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] CyanideHD:
Unlocking a bootloader will most definitely trip knox, unfortunately. I have high hopes we will get the bootloader unlock by the end of this year.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] mjjcb:
God, I hope you're right. This device has sucked much of my love for Android out of me. I feel like I'm on an iPhone. I don't think I'd root without twrp. I wouldn't want to be away from my pc and not be able to flash a backup if my phone wigs out.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] UnNaMeD__:
which variant has best development can anyone tell me?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] Eggleston11:
G935F (Exynos) for sure. Plenty of ROMS, plenty of kernel. IMO, Tkkg1994, Superman ROM and associated kernels make it all worth it, not to mention all the other ROMs and kernels available.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] doubledragon5:
Well so long as the US carriers are locking our devices down.. Maybe next we should think about purchasing a international variant that works with our chosen network.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] UnNaMeD__:
Thanks mate, my note 4 died(custom rom+kernel with my settings in few hours probably killed it) so I am planning to buy another device. as a user of s7, will you suggest it or any other device in similar price point. I will buy a used/refurb phone. So any other device you think is going to be better than it? Like v20, g5, note 5, or you will stick to s7? any of mentioned device have better rear camera or s7 is best?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] Eggleston11:
Sounds like you OC'ed heaps? Rather than overclocking, if you want more performance ,I'd personally change how aggressive my governor scaling is - much safer. Out of all the ones you listed, I'd go S7 or S7 edge as the battery life is the best if nothing else. I'm also a bit of a Samsung fanboy haha. Now, I got my edge because there was this ridiculous deal where it was cheaper than the S7. But the edge does not really have much benefit over the normal S7 besides battery life (the edge function can easily be gained through custom rom). I'd save money and get the cheaper one.

With those you listed though, they're all reasonably similar in specs so you can't really go wrong I guess. Maybe check community development strength for those if that matters to you as well. I also think I read somewhere about build quality issues with LG?

Edit - also I found it annoying to find a case and screen protector for S7 edge, so that may make a difference? I can recommend a combo that has worked well for me if you decide to get it though.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] doubledragon5:
Have you considered a S6 or S6+. How about a Note5.. As far as I can tell, they are still with unlocked boot loaders and still have plenty of development.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] UnNaMeD__:
I only disabled 3 cores out of 8 by an app "synapse" on a new ROM to save battery, woke up with dead note 4.

I think display size of s7 edge is one big advantage over s7, would prefer 5.5" and it looks more beautiful. That's why I prefer edge, don't need edge functionalities though. One thing I am noticing on s7 in reviews that it some times oversaturates photos, is it fixable? Lets say by ROM or app(except RAW mode)?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] Eggleston11:
That doesnt sound like it would make your phone wake up dead? Is it hardbricked or just softbricked? That being said synapase is unstable AF, I got so many FCs from dumb things like reducing my max clock speed. Edge is more beautiful for sure :) . I like the way that it takes photos haha and I'm pretty adept at photoshopping so I've never looked into it.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] UnNaMeD__:
I need good development and specs with camera! I don't like that fact that they removed sd slot on s6 and it is not even water resistant. And they are getting older and I think probably no android 8 for them as Samsung likes to do it. Custom ROMs will have it but they will be buggy for sure. I didn't knew that note5 don't have sd slot until now. Not expected, I don't understand why they removed them on those phones when they are added now. But thank god they have 3.5mm jack.

---------- Post added at 04:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:12 PM ----------

Nope I checked everything to see if its hardbricked but phone doesn't shows anywhere on PC, some repair shops used their own devices to check but its hardware dead, maybe just a coincidence that it died due its time when I changed software settings. Sent to few repair shops, need new mobo. I left it and now looking for new phone. Never gonna use synapase.

Btw I am very familiar with PS too, but problem is the time consumed for multiple pics! But anyways thanks mate, I have exams going on, I will buy in next month I guess, will let you know what I get :D
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] doubledragon5:
Biggest reason why I did not by either phone was the missing SD slot. But since these newer phones in the US are being locked down, I might consider in the future buying a older phone just because I can at least install custom roms.. Hell I have already downloaded roms just in case I end up picking up one.. MY S3 I have had for yrs just went south, usb port is dead won't charge..
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] UnNaMeD__:
We have many US phones (refurbished) for sell in Pakistan. They are generally cheap than global variants but I don't buy them because US carriers are too aggressive locking them up! And this is exactly the case for S7 Edge. Btw that's the same problem with my brothers S4, he charges battery externally. Use the benefit of removable battery mate :D I had S3 for long time, great phone indeed. Used Liquid smooth ROM mostly with Boeffla kernel.

---------- Post added at 11:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:44 PM ----------

If I don't find G935F for good price, I will go with G6. Hope its good decision.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] Vanja011:
I had my Samsung Galaxy S7 edge Duos, G935FD for a year and a half and must brag about it a little even though it is considered an old model. Very heavy use and finally it's time to replace the battery but it was amazing until recently and I also found out after buying this particular version that it's actually the best one on the market. Very happy with it still and will definitely keep it after buying S9 on eBay as usual since I want unlocked international version ?

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] marcgear:
Yeah super fast coming from note 4 which I was happy with. Super duper fast
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] Ariozo:
Works great for my daily things, and even the few games I play.

Size and spec of the s7 edge makes it my daily device and it works perfectly so far.

Coming from ip6s+, but also had before that N6p,N5 and s6 edge. So I compare it to good devices and not some low end device..:)

its fast, dunno how good it is compared with other newer phones, but everything runs smooth, games are awesome!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] fillyo:
Setting everything was super fast, did a reboot and charging up to take a break, coming from a Note 4, which was reasonably fast, but this thing has zero lag so far.

GS7

this is a great phone, you can get the performance that you want and easily to use :good:
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] NYYFan02:
Snappiness of this phone has put my Note 4 to shame, particularly with switching to and from camera to gallery.

Galaxy S7 edge is really fast, I do all multi tasking stuff like running multiple apps, playing game, downloading and auto updates parallely and its still runs with full speed. like all other samsung mobiles S7 edge runs with high speed.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] daLareid:
No lag for me yet.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] exzacklyright:
I can easily get mine to freeze up or lag.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] cvsolidx17:
Same here. There is microlag when scrolling all throughout Touchwiz. For the most part its smooth and seamless but for everyone saying they haven't seen lag, you probably have.

There is just a strong chance that it wasn't sustained lag which makes it easy to be dismissive of it.

It is especially noticeable when coming from the N6P (chalking this up to stock android not being bloated)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] retrospooty:
Agreed, I have seen micro lag, but nothing to irritating. It got much better when I disabled everything (everything that is dis-ableable anyhow) from Samsung and Verizon as always. Also as always once its rooted we can disable the rest and ti will fly. Its a shame that we have to do that, but it is what it is. I would do anything for an S7 Edge with stock Android... Better yet, a Nexus Edge ;)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] *Telcontar*:
Hi, and what about the most performance demanding games? I use these expensive phones as portable consoles and if I invest 800€ into phone, which is price of computer, I expect every single game on google play smooth at 50 fps. But on some ytb videos I have seen some microshutter and fps drops for example in Dead trigger 2, Asphalt 8 or GTA san andreas. Dont know which version it was, but I prefer adreno 530 gpu which is not on market in my country :/ . I actually dont care very much about fast app launching/loadings or appdrawer, but for me most important is FPS when game is already loaded. Or can I lower res to 1080p to eliminate any FPS issue? Did anyone compared gaming exynos vs snapdragon? (not benchmarks, real gaming FPS) .

PS: Please keep hate and comments like phone is not for gaming away, Im listening it all the time. But i am heavy gamer at any platform and if I wanted phone for calls and sms I could stick with my old nokia 3310. But thanks for any possible useful info from owners of this phone
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] sweets55:
Only time I had lag was with Chrome. I'm using the Samsung browser now and it's fast. The update seems like it made my phone fast not that it was slow. I'm happy. Oh I'm using Nova so that probably helps.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] yap_rony:
most of it is fast except slight lag once in awhile. fps is slower compare to my oneplus 2
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] LKYEG:
some games are laggier than on my Sony Z3, sometimes the transitions lag as well
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] xeon2630:
Great speed
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] rabbit74:
Sluggish. Actually slower than my S5.

Camera performance very fast but the rest of the UI is sluggish.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] stevae:
then you've done something wrong with it, because i also had a s5 lte-a g906s, and it was way faster than the normal s5, and this phone blows that phone away with speed. so you might want to do a full reset if your s7e is slower than your s5, because it has major problems.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] yap_rony:
start to lag more from time to time
