Very normal, and could be higher, if you use 4G Bluetooth and calls, will go to around 40c

But not always, only at summer that temperatures are high.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] frozenAXL:
Thank you for the reply, so I understand it's safe at 40 as well? At what temperature should I start being concerned?

P. S I know I am probably over thinking it too much :)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] cavags5:
I think temperature after 45c it's too much, and need to turn off everything.

I remember my old s3 back in the days temperature get 50c almost explode ?

But s7 edge hang on very well.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] frozenAXL:
Thanks again, I think I will stop thinking about it so much :svetius:
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] spacefanboy9216:
It depends on the ambient temperature of the room too. The place where I live has a room temp of 40 Degrees Celsius. Even if I use the phone for casual browsing and few calls, therm0 reaches 68 C. Imagine what the temps will look like when I play a game !?. It might throttle down.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] frozenAXL:
Isn't that kind of high temperature dangerous? We're entering summer and here the normal weather temperature is going to about 35c, how does the phone handle that kind of heat? :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] qwewqa:
Normal heat will make the phone slower but won't do any damage. Once it gets too hot, the phone will throttle to prevent it from reaching dangerous temperatures.

Can i have your system version (all the informations like PDA...) please ?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] Eggleston11:
Definitely dependent on weather, have only had mine for winter and spring now. CPU and battery normally round the same temp. Summer coming. 90% of the time below 30C- average I'd say abuot 26-28C. Always below 35C for normal activities. Got 40-50C when flashing ROM. Other than feeling occasionally warm, asymptomatic.

Much cooler than the old S5 - in winter, CPU averaging mid 30s and being about as high as 50 on normal use. Battery manages to keep quite cool comparatively, rarely every going above 40. Flashing ~70-80 . Surprisingly quite asymptomatic (other than the fever), given the temperatures though.

At the club, at the bar, or just in your mom's basement, nighttime is when you come out to play. Rate this thread to express how the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge's camera performs when no or low light is present. A higher rating indicates that the camera sensor "sees" lots of light in dim conditions, and that the resulting photos have minimal noise. A higher rating also indicates that when the flash fires, the resulting photo is evenly-lit without any bright spots.

Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] LinkOmega:
They must be pretty dang close in comparison. Would probably be specific to the situation. Here are the specs:

Nexus 6P: f2.0 aperture and 1.55 μm pixel size. Not a great f stop, but that's some big pixels.

S7 Edge: f1.7 aperture and 1.4 μm pixel size. Awesome aperture, especially for getting that background blurred out, but the pixel size isn't quite as big.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] aakanayev:
I think objectively s7 picks up more detail in highlights where g4 seems to be doing slightly better with shadows. I also think that g4 is better with contrast (because s7 is overly contrasty), but s7 takes the prize because it doesn't have such prominent lens flare, which got very bad in one of the shots.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] DoKaTSuYa:
http://i.imgur.com/MU54jwz.jpg

Your G4 looks like it has the flare problem ?

I really like the spectrum color, it's the only one that don't turn yellowish in low light.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] VictorC:
I really think the G4 is better in low light than S7. Except for the flare (it could have been that the lens was smudgy a bit, who knows), the G4 took better, more detailed and overall less noisy pictures. But, more importantly, it was closer to the real lighting in those scenes. The S7 would go all nuts with yellow-orangeish tints... When I took the photos, looking at them on the phones, I saw very little differences, but when I looked at them on a 27 inch monitor I saw where and how the G4 stood out.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] DoKaTSuYa:
You definitely has lens flare problem. Check thiss thread : http://xdaforums.com/verizon-g4/help/2-g4s-cameras-screen-temps-t3186732

This is another Victor, from Bucharest as well! Thanks a lot for your comparison shots. I would like, provided you have the spare time, to meet and go together with a 3 smartphones comparison.

By no means do I think the S7 Edge camera is bad (far from it actually), it's just that I think it's too aggressive and, in low light, it has some trouble with finding the right white balance. Still, these things could be corrected via updates.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] DoKaTSuYa:
You have a Sony or Isocell sensor ?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] VictorC:
Isocell

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] VictorC:
Ok, going back on topic I tested the S7E and the G4 in a more controled setting and tried a flash showdown aswel. Theese teste were in very low light to extremely low light (the photos are brighter than my eyes could actually see) and, while both phones did quite good given the circumstances, I say the S7E won this round. The real world test in low light, however, as with my previous photos posted here, not so much...

First photo G4, second photo S7E. Very low light, a far away desk lamp on the left side and a window crack next to a curtain behind me:

First photo is the G4, second is the S7E. This, to my eyes, was very-very dark. I could barely see enough to frame the picture. Here the S7E actually delivered a photo that not just captures shapes, but colors too. The G4, while it did capture shapes, it failed to produce much more than that...

Flash test - First photo is the G4, second is the S7E. The S7E wins again and it's easy to see why.

---------- Post added at 05:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:37 PM ----------

No problem with the G4, get over that. It very likely had smudges on the lens hence the flares in some earlier photos.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] DoKaTSuYa:
Yes I meant the smudges in the first pics taken outdoor at night. There's no that kind of flare, and obviously in very dark the S7 do better, it's like the Ultrapixel it forces to capture some light and pics taken with flash are better with S7.

[MENTION=5235636]VictorC[/MENTION]

I do really love G4 laser autofocus , what do you say about s7edge focusing ?

is it better than in G4 overal? better in bad light condition ?

G4 is 99% accurate and fast focusing on poor light

I have nexus 6p curently and I miss fast acourate focusing from G4

more photos are better shots on G4 (non blur) or S7 ?

what abut when objet are movig(childs/dog) ? then which one are better for shooting still sharp photos ?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] VictorC:
I would say that both are pretty much similar in terms of performance, maybe with a slight edge (pun intended :)) to the S7 for the focus and general speed of photo taking. I do prefer the G4 for outdoor shots, I still thinks it takes better, overall more real looking photos, while the S7 Edge tends to be more aggressive with contrast and sharpness (and there is the matter of a lower resolution). For that matter, I'd still prefer the G4 for low light as well.

In low light I think both phones focus more or less the same and both tend to capture blurry moving subjects. In daylight I had no problem with capturing moving targets in focus with both phones.

either one you choose, it's a great camera. Waiting to see the G5 :)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] babylordx:
Sony or isocell lens doesnt matter. Outperforms everything else out there.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] GoyoNeuff:
Hello and thank you Victor !

OK, I still do not understand why you would choose the G4 over the S7. I can see your argument for all other situations, except for Low Light. It seems that the S7 is the clear better camera/phone. I have a Note 4 and will move into a S7 International Exynos version (I am in the USA, but really going for the international version first time this time around). I still have a Nokia 808, The King, however due to the limiting OS, I have relegate it to a drawer. The purpose for me is to be able to capture the best possible photos indoors of my kids. So, with that in mind, it seems like the S7 is the best current phone to take good pictures of moving objects (fastest auto focusing) in low light -indoor- conditions.

What y'all think?

Cheers,

G.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] VictorC:
^^ In low-light shots, in the studio, indeed the S7 is better. But in other scenarios, on the street at night for example, I still think the G4 edged the S7 Edge :P Not always, though, so it's a mixed bag... Either way, both have very good cameras. I'd bee happy with either one. Still waiting to see the G5 :)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] nowy57:
G5 probably will be faster on shoot mode (S820) then G4 (S808)

I so much belive G5 is better than S7edge an waiting for photo test using final product

what I am worry is battery but we cannot have ideal phone - it does not exist :)

I was impressed with the low light ability of the S7 Edge. I shot this pic at 5am last Sunday of Gig Harbor, WA. This was hand held with no tripod, so quite good considering. Not quite DSLR level though. But who would have thought it would be this good 5 years ago!

The Edge is now a phablet – not quite as big as Samsung's end-of-year 5.7-inch phablets, but still standing tall with a 5.5-inch screen. The smaller S7 has a 5.1-incher, just like last year's S6.

Don't think about low light.

I had an Galaxy S6 edge plus before and I had doubts about the 12MP camera of the Galaxy S7 edge, because of the less megapixels. But now, after 2 weeks of usage, I have to say, that Samsung did a very nice job.

The Camera of the S7 edge is even more amazing than the camera of the S6 edge plus. In daylight there is not a big difference between the two cameras. The low light performance is unbelieveable good for a smartphone. The autofocus works fast and the photos have a less amount of noise.

Here are some samples. I shoot the low light photo without a tripod with 2 seconds exposure time and ISO 400. In reality you were not able to see the grass on the field. If I had my tripod with me, I would have take some 10 seconds exposure time photos.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] galr:
Nice camera, a bit disappointing with the low detail and over sharpening but It should satisfy most users. Amazing focus speed.

And btw Samed92, why use ISO 400 when using a tripod? Why not 50?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] Hani88:
I did that with my old phone. In LG the maximum iso value is 2700 but in S7 it is only 800. Also the sutter speed can be 30 as maximum value but in S7 it is only 10

The photos in LG are brighter but noisy

And I am impressed so much with the G4 selfie camers performance in low light!! It is better than 1.7 selfie of the S7

S7 Edge Vs Note 4

Hi guys!

I just took these pictures a couple of minutes ago to see the differences between both phones (i got the Note 4 around 2014 and the S7E 3 weeks ago).

Both are in auto mode (with the S7E HDR auto) so it's basically like a noob point and shoot mode

Outside from the window

S7 E (this shot was a lot faster)

N4

My lazy cat

S7 E

N4 (i actually preferred this one)

My wall

S7 E

N4 (brighter, but the shot was a lot slower and details seemed to get lost )

My "pottery" attempt on a wall that's not well lit

S7E

N4

Speed: S7E wins by no contest

Quality ; S7E seems to win most except for the cat shot, but i think it depends on your color saturation preferences.

If i went Pro mode, the S7E would win by a long shot

Granted, it is a day shot and out of the topic but i really liked the fact that tweaking the pro mode lets me catch rain drops as DROPS and rather spherical ones at that

1 am post concert shot on auto for S7E

i don't think it even stuttered as i took that pic
