[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] asureka90:
HI Guys,

I currently have the S5 and am looking to get a new phone but finding it hard to choose between S7 and the OnePlus 3?

I understand the Oneplus 3 is better value for money but which is the best phone overall? I am leaning towards Samsung as I have always used a Samsung but only worry is whether the performance drops after a few months? The 6GB ram on the Oneplus is pretty tempting but again not sure if with time the performance will be affected.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] gsmyth:
I think either device would be a great upgrade as both companies have done a great job as far as refining their flagship device and so you'll be getting a top phone either way. I have previously had a Galaxy S4 which I really liked and also a Oneplus which I also really liked, both for different reasons. Its going to come down to what needs/preferences you have or want to have in a new device such as camera, sound, build, software, etc.

I found my Oneplus One was great for ROMs,mods and tweaks, there was endless things you could tinker with if you wanted to (you didnt have to). With the S7, it will depend on whether you will be using the Snapdragon or Exynos version, as the bootloader is locked down on the Snapdragon version and so there wont be any aosp ROMs until someone (ever?) finds a way around that. The bonus of the Oneplus one was that it shipped with Cyanogen OS and there were so many (there still are) other ROMs you could try and choose from. Im not sure how this will compare on the OP3, but then again it might not be a big concern to you.

I have the Exynos version S7 myself and havent bothered with rooting or any roms yet as it runs so well out of the box, but its nice to know the option is there if I ever feel like it. I think the upgrade from S5->S7 is a good one for you, as you dont lose features such as the micro sd card and water/dust resistance, which you would have with the S6. The one thing that you would lose would be the ability to use a second battery as its obviously non-removable with the S7, but then again there are tons of good portable batteries these days which can cover that situation.

The OP3 definitely seems like a solid device in terms of actual physical build and specs, it would also be a nice change from Samsung/Touchwiz if you wanted a slightly different OS experience. I dont think the 6GB is something you will appreciate day to day or feel the benefit of right away, as Oneplus themselves hadnt really even optimised for 6GB of ram when they released the device and are currently working on an OTA to address this. But its definitely going to future proof the device for while and provide solid multitasking abilities, although the 4GB on the S7 does a great job of this as well.

I would read through the S7 and OP3 forums on XDA to get a feel of user's opinions and any pros and cons. Sometimes things (good or bad) only come to light a while after the devices have been in the hands of owners who are using them day in day out and putting them through their paces. I would happily recommend the S7 for lovely build quality, superb display, top camera, good battery and all the other features that are actually useful (water resistance, sd card slot). If I didnt have my S7 (it was a contract upgrade) I would seriously consider the OP3, especially as you can just order it without an invite this time, it seems to be very good value for money.

[MENTION=3330048]gsmyth[/MENTION] pretty much said it all. Give us an idea of how you use your Galaxy S5. Have you rooted, custom recovery, ROM's etc... Are you a multitasker, heavy browser or social media addict?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] kutulu32:
S7 has

Much Better screen with higher resolution

Waterproof

Better warranty

Better camera

Better battery (screen on time)

Sd card 200g

Faster internal storage(speed)

Not usb type c (more accesories)

Exynos processor faster (multicore and everyday life use)

One plus 3 has

More ram

Better gpu for gaming

No knox

Rooting without loosing warranty

Os is simpler like aosp

Developer friendly

Lower price

Build quality is very good in both phones also design is something subjective.

Hi

I have a S7 and my daughter has a S7 Edge , both perform great , both look great ......i am really happy with it

http://m.pocketnow.com/2016/06/28/oneplus-3-vs-samsung-galaxy-s7

here a comparative of the two phones pro and con on both side
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] drummerman:
Perhaps you're interested in my initial comparison between the two over on the OnePlus forum (What device did you ditch for one plus3? - Post 284).

With the S7(E) you are paying (considerably extra) for Screen and Camera Quality, Weatherproofing and design.

If these are not so important you can save money with the Op3. It is a good phone.

Hope this helps somewhat.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] asureka90:
S5

I had a S3 before that I rooted and was using Cynagoen Mod for a while but that phone became extremely unstable and just became a brick by the end of it so I decided not to root or install custom ROM on my S5 thinking it would perform better over the long term. However after a year or so the performance dropped a lot and the past 6 months it's been terrible. It

I am more of a multi tasker and do use couple of different social media platforms but not too addicted by any means.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] asureka90:
Thanks!

Thanks for your detailed response!! Really appreciate it!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] asureka90:
Thanks!

Thanks! Was helpful, the price difference for the S7 is $120 USD extra so it would be worth paying $120 for those added features
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] LiNe11:
More ram but its worst than s7 4gb ram.

S7 better choice.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] asureka90:
Got the S7 in silver! Going to switch today! Whats the best way to transfer all my data/apps to my new phone?

Also, does using Nova Launcher and Swift Keyboard affect the phones performance? I have used these two apps from day one so was wondering if its better to use the stock options for improved performance!

Thanks! [MENTION=3330048]gsmyth[/MENTION] [MENTION=6100684]fast69mopar[/MENTION]
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] fast69mopar:
Great. You'll be happy with the S7E especially now that root is available. The root game all happened in the last few days and there are several threads dedicated to rooting your device. I surely don't think using Nova with SwiftKey will affect performance in any way. Give it a shot and report back so other users will know. Good luck with your new S7E.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] asureka90:
Cheers! Will let you know how it goes!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] gsmyth:
Nice one!

There is the Samsung switch app which should get most of your data over from your old device. You also get a USB OTG type adapter to hook up for transferring data.

I also use Nova launcher on devices as it's so customisable and also to get that stock look, but haven't installed it on my S7 as I haven't felt the need. Previously touchwiz was pretty laggy and boring looking but I think Samsung have actually improved it quite well. I do miss not having the hide apps feature and having to re-sort the app drawer after installing an app is pretty annoying,but not a deal breaker for me. I have also installed a material theme which changes the icon theme as well ( plus it themes the pull down drawer and settings menu.

I also just use the Samsung keyboard as it's working OK for me, again I have used the Google one on other devices but haven't felt the need to install another one. You can always give both apps a try and see what you prefer on your S7, it really depends on what you find better/nicer/easier.

Enjoy your new phone and see you around XDA!

[G3 Android Development] rippedwarrior69:
It not being worked on anymore.
[G3 Android Development] marcdw:
I just gave the ROM a preliminary once over. Like the other Vietnamese offering, xOS, it is CM-based. Quite a bit of customization, via the Customization icon, with things like SmartBar, Fling, Pulse, network traffic, volume steps, floating windows, etc. All listed in the OP.

This ROM tries to give that stock/iPhone feel. The launcher has no app drawer. Sadly, it has no options either. Not a single one. Long-pressing icons gets you only the option to remove or uninstall them.

There's a few applets like a note taker and reminder. The browser is not a browser. Running it will send you to the Play Store to get you to download UC Browser. That's not cool.

Gapps, BTW, are included. Minimal. Equivalent to Open GApps pico I guess.

For sound ROM uses Dolby instead of AudioFX, MusicFX, V4A.

Will do a more thorough check later.

How do you add themes?
[G3 Android Development] marcdw:
Look, I'm not gonna be nice here. You gotta be new to XDA to have posted what you just did.

There is no build for the vs985 offered by the OP. The builds that are offered are v2.x. In your impatience you scour the world wide web looking for a build. You find one. A v1.x with a different feature set.

The idiotic part is, you try that build and then have the nerve to post about issues you have with it. In _this_ thread, that doesn't offer _that_ build.

Makes no friggin' sense whatsoever.

Take that mess to wherever you found it.

FYI, center clock is enabled by default.

It uses the CM Theme engine. Install like any other. ROM comes with four (BlurOS, Galaxy Note 5, Mi8, Android).

I think I finally understand why devs are leaving XDA.

[G3 Android Development] marcdw:
You posted issues about a version of the ROM that is not being offered here by this dev. He hasn't built a v2 for the vs985. You find a v1 from somwwhere else and post about issues. Outdated and not built by the dev.

If you have issues with that build you need to contact the maintainer of it.

The issues you have are not in the build offered here.
