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

[ttaskmaster]

Do a quick Google, read a review and educate yourself? No excuse for not doing so really.

I had a look at a few and they didn't seem to say either way regarding PC games. That's why I asked the same question on the page before this guy...

The answer appears to be - No, not unless the game itself is designed to split the display. I have no idea how Elite does its VR, but I'd assume it wouldn't work.

Urghhh think I'll stick with the S7 regular... the screen bezel is thin and the phone is my ideal pocket size.

I've ordered the exact same cases kona (well, the middle and the left cases) the black slim fit case has a very unusual feel to it. Like it's soft/slick. I wouldn't call it matte. Reminds me of my old nexus 5x!

Yeah it's like a funky soft touch material.

I still have one case pending, I think that maybe the one I'd like most.

All the cases have gone up in price now

Grrr! I think I'll wait and see if cashback changes between now and next week

Somebody on HotUKdeals mentioned they ordered yesterday and it still tracked at 5%. Might get lucky, though I guess it may get corrected before it pays out.

Popped to CPW to take a look at lunch time and I’m thinking the same. The Edge is lovely but didn’t wow me as much as I expected, and the standard just feels like the perfect size for me.

I had a mess with both and the same as last year If you want that class look its deffo the edge. The size difference is very minimal.

 

[Cosimo]

So the cases turned up, quicker than expected!

Making a collection?

Yeah, plus I think I would potentially get annoyed with how content automatically stretches over the edge of the screen and thus renders it a bit less clear and readable. I found it a little distracting.

I wonder... is there any way of disabling the edges in certain modes or apps to give the illusion of a non-EDGE screen?

Mind you, if I am asking that question I guess that kind of says it all.

Any good deals for taking out a new contract to minimise the initial outlay?

 

[Dimi]

HELP!

For those who have seen the phone in person, Black or Gold?

 

[MikGriff]

The "gold" is quite feminine, I got the Black, Classy imo

Black is stunning and to die for! Saw it today...

 

[Dimi]

Black it is, just checked some YouTube videos and stills of the black. Looks good.

Where to go for the best 24 month contract for this?

I just got of the phone with Vodafone and they're basically sticking the middle finger up with pricing considering I've been with them for the past 20+ months. New phone we can't offer you any better deals BS.

Ordered Sim Free S7 Edge.

Now to sell the S6 edge.

For those that have pre-ordered do you have to select the VR from accessories page or is it included by default ?
