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

[tlrBeta]

When you get the feedback text, it will be about the store specifically. Please don't be harsh as the adviser will get a rollocking.

Not to worry, i havent done so.

l will be making a complaint in store specifically about the process, not really the people this time.

Airplane mode?

Well, that lasted long.... Home from work tonight and getting a "warning camera failed" message when trying to start camera. Done a factory reset and worked for all of an hour and same thing again... Run the diagnostic test and camera fails there too. *sigh* I really hope I don't get fobbed off with a repair considering only had it 24 hrs...

 

[Captain]

Not all usage though, some background usage and some music, screen % says 39% screen, the rest is small %.

Spoiler

 

[Sirrel Squirrel]

How'd you get that dark theme?

 

[jrodga2k5]

My S7 after it's first day off full charge 7am-11pm is sitting at 32% remaining.

3hrs 3m 38s of OST
Bluetooth connected to Android Wear Smartwatch all day
WiFi on all day
Approximately 1hr spent listening to podcasts

All in all I'm very impressed with the first day's usage out of this

 

[Captain]

Go to settings>themes and search for material dark

What's the big N sign in the bar at the top for?
I've turned NFC off so I don't think it's that...

 

[kona786]

You know the phone is good when even MKBHD is trying his hardest to bring out the minor flaws

 

[Christmas themed thank]

Damn it, the heart-rate sensor on my S7 is not working well at all. Very intermittent. Never had this problem with previous Samsungs...

Maybe you're just a zombie part of the time

I'm at 56bpm mostly. As laid back as a fiddle me.

 

[MLAM]

Do you still get the VR now if you pre order sim free from CPW?

 

[mrk]

Oh yeah forgot to ask here about VR, how do you stop the Oculus software kicking in when attaching the headset? I want to watch youtube 360 stuff but can't exit the how to exit Oculus software when the headset is attached :/

 

[A2Z]

I want to order S7E but realllllly want the Silver version

Liking the SOT people are posting!

 

[mrk]

Well 360 works through the Internet beta app in Oculus store, but the resolution is complete arse. It's an interesting view into where things are heading though. Once you can freely view 360 content in crisp HD+ we will be in a new ballgame altogether.

I also didn't realise you can still plug in headphones and the USB charger into the Oculus with the phone attached, which is neat.

Also, loving this display
