Samsung Galaxy S7 Review

Samsung Galaxy S7

I was waiting for this new wonder by Samsung and atlast I got it in my hand. Out of Black, white, Gold and Silver I chose the gold one. No doubt Samsung has again shown its creativity in its new launch Galaxy S7.
Got this phone from ATT and not amazon, but thought I should write a little about it so you can ignore the slander comments.

This phone is exactly as marketed.
Pros:
- Its fast, It will run many processes in the background without ever bogging down ( improvement over my S5)
- Its got a good camera for the 99% of us who are not professional photographers.
- Display is clear and high def.
- It's slightly smaller than my S5. I actually like this.
- They brought back the SD card slot (one reason I didn't get the S6)
- To the fellow that complained about dropping it from over a foot and it breaking..... buy a case... its what people do with a $700 phone.

Cons:
- Battery life is still good, but not as good as my S5... I will play with it all day and it will still have about 40% left as opposed to 60% with my older one.
- Headphone jack on the bottom of phone... personal preference I suppose, but I liked it on the top.
- Still has the more complicated menu settings of android phones... Ex: Might take you a few minutes to find the right tab to rename your phone.
- Samsungs "SmartSwitch" isn't great when transferring files to your new phone. Try to store as much as you can on your old SD card before moving things or you might lose some of those valued pictures or documents.
I will start with not so impressive points of this new tech wonder-
1) Similar look to S6- It looks so similar to older version S6 in design. At least a new version should have differences from its predecessors not only by features but also by look. Both of them are same by size, look , height , width. Only slight differences are there by look. S6 is more flat at the back whereas S7 has curved panel.
The rear camera in s6 sticks out a bit whereas in S7 the camera is more flat.
2) No Type c USB - I will miss my nexus Type c usb connector in S7 which I really enjoy in my google nexus 5X. S again I will be missing my fast charging here which is most needed when you are in a hurry and want to get your phone atleast half charged within a couple of minutes.
3) No 3D touch- I love 3D touch of my iPhone 6S plus which I will be missing in this S7.

Now the best and most impressive sides of S7 are -
1) Better camera than S6- In spite of the significant megapixel difference in camera between S6 and S7 ( S6 has 16 MP rear camera where as S7 has 12 mp rear camera ) I would say the camera is much better than S6 . Pictures comes solid in S7 and you will not have a chance to think about the megapixel difference.
2) Waterproof phone- Yeah, Samsung has created the wonder fully waterproof which is savior to those worries if your phone accidentally gets dropped in water.
3) Better battery performance - Combo of 3000 mah battery and android marshmallow featuring long lasting battery will make S7 horse of a long race.
4) Micro SD card support- It supports Micro SD card which is a win win over S6.

I am using this phone and have no complaints still now and pretty happy with my golden S7.

1. iCarer Genuine Leather Case for Samsung Galaxy S7

Installation was a snap. The phone fits in to place and is secured by each edge being slightly curved to hug the corners of the fun. The leather not only looks premium but it is as advertised, premium leather. I bought the brown case and find it to be dress casual. Today was the first day of using my new case and I have already been complimented twice while using it at work. The quality of the case is well built. Some "folio" type cases are flimsy and look cheap and fall a part where the binding is. Although, I have not used this case for more than 1 day so far, I can tell from other cases that this one is built much better and to last. Instructions are included on how to care for the leather and a case that is comes in.
If you are looking for a case that is slim that will go in to your front pocket easily, this is a phone I can assure you would be just that. I hate bulky cases. Protecting your phone is great, but I don't need a case that is either impossible to put in my pocket or fit comfortably. You will be pleased if this is on your checklist.
Cut outs for the phone are for the home button, camera lens, and where the ear piece is. As seen in the pictures, the top of the phone is protected by the bezel edges but is still exposed as well as the bottom where the speaker, charging slot, and auxiliary jack. I am very picky with protection but as I said, I love this case b/c it offers the protection I want as well as comfort and sophistication.
I did receive this case at a discounted price in exchange for an honest and unbiased review. If you are looking for a genuine leather case that is slim fitted, that offers great protection then you will not be disappointed with your purchase.

2. Defender Series Rugged Case for Samsung Galaxy S7

This Defender Series Galaxy S7 case fits like a glove and provides bump and scratch protection for the sides, back and top. The large cut-out for the Apple logo, I can take it or leave it. None of the ports are made more difficult to access, and the skin does not interfere with pushability on the volume and power buttons. The wrap-around edge rises slightly over the screen and does not interfere with swiping. It feels good in the hand, with a slightly matted finish.
The polycarbonate shell is flexible and it's easy to put on and remove the case. For people who aren't accident-prone and want a minimalist, low-profile case, this is a good option.
As there are no moving pieces, nothing should break during normal use, but Defender Series backs the product up with a lifetime replacement policy nonetheless. Manufacturer provided unit for evaluation.
Price: $15.65
3. ROCK S-View Flip Cover for Samsung Galaxy S7

Fits my phone like a charm. Looks amazing on my phone. When I close the case I get a convenient time screen and charging information. Looks sharp! This was my third case for this phone. I bought a cheap one, not bad. Then I bought a Body Glove, again, not bad. Finally I bought this one and was kicking myself for not buying it first.
Love the case. It covers and fits the phone perfect. I love the color. I have a screen protector on and it works fine. I know some people don't like the fact that the case scratches on the back but I don't mind as long as my phone doesn't have scratches. You could have come up to me and told me this was new and I would have totally believed it. I'll definitely be buying from this company again. I'll admit I was a bit nervous trying them out at first but I'm glad I did!
The notifications are dismiss-able but NOT actionable in the s-view. Actionable items include: responding to events, notifications, and timers; controlling your music playback; accessing your contacts; accessing the camera.
Price: $10.95
