**** The Official Samsung Galaxy S7/Edge Thread ****

Yes VERY impressed with the fingerprint reader. It's finally a pleasure to lock my phone.

Went from iPhone 6 to LG G4, the thing I missed the most was unlocking with my fingerprint. SO happy to have it back!

No everything was outside the box.



Picture below. The screen protector that's on it has a line going across it. No physical damage underneath but someones definitely touched it..... hmmm

Spoiler

best to get on the phone and tell them it's been tampered with.

I always use Spigen cases. Like the spigen thin fit as its minimalist case but.

I'm loving it so far, feels so premium in terms of weight...lightning quick with Nova Launcher installed and got it looking just the way I want it

Just had a text from Parcelforce, my phone will be delivered today between 2-3pm

Yeah first thing I do with any Android phone Is put Nova on, that includes Stock android as I hate the dreaded search bar on it.

Never have performance issues with nova, ditch touchwizz is the secret.

So I'm super-paranoid and I want to protect the rear lens. Is it the same size as the Galaxy S6 lens as there are glass protectors for the S6 lens.

So. Amazing phone.

What's the best email application to use for Gmail? Also, how do I get emails to display the number if new emails on the app? Thanks

 

[Chris344]

Also what's the best text app? Can I get delivery receipts on the stock app?

loving this phone so far, such great size for 5.5inch screen, and love amoled, the fingerprint is much faster then the s6 edge, and im sure the battery will be amazing, do wish there was a proper tempered glass protector

im using touchwizz just wanna test and see if get any lag, but will use nova, just wanna see if samsung improved with that

*read through thread from this afternoon*

Right **** it, I'm ordering one when it come back in stock, maybe tomorrow, it was in stock briefly this morning, maybe they are doing so many a day or something...

If not then at some point, not too fussed about the Gear VR as I'll use it once and never again.

Good video, enjoyed that compared to the 'usual review' type of vids I've been seeing recently.

You can do this on nova launcher with the tesla unread add on.

I don't use this feature however.
