My battery also poor compare to my previous note 4 and note 5, full charge at 8am, until 6pm, left 35%, SOT less than 2 hours, probably 1 hr 40m, AOD disabled.

My note 5 easily last me till 11pm and left 35%.

However, my wife's S7E is much better than my earlier  note 5.
*
My SO is getting better battery life than me as well.

I guess it is pure luck. laugh.gif

That's quite bad.. I could get through a day with 5hour+ sot.
Maybe you can try a factory reset?
*
Tried that. No difference.

QUOTE(eugenetwh @ Mar 22 2016, 09:53 PM)
i got a feeling it will be. since tear it down does states that they have to remove the back case which will affect the IP68. not sure if samsung will be doing it right or not. Sony used to cover my Xperia Z with full warranty even with screen replacement(yea tough luck again)
*
I hope Samsung is able to provide a 1 to 1 exchange like Apple.

I believe if the seals are replaced properly, waterproofing will be retained. It depends on the competency of the technician I guess. smile.gif

I think this case is different due to the screen cracked. I believe they deemed it as human negligence. Some website already mentioned this phone is almost impossible to repair..
*
If they reassemble it the same way they took it apart, I'm sure the waterproofing would still be there right?
Provided they use the proper seal

Poor coverage? Perhaps try 3G for a day and see how's the battery life?

Yeah, but cannot use samsung adapter for Choetech need use thiers.

Yup, choetech also releasing new wireless fast charger which around 20W soon, as I heard from choetech staff.
*
Wow. 20W is very powerful indeed. It could probably charge the S7 edge in under 45 minutes!
Anyway, will wait for your review of the Choetech 10W you ordered. thumbsup.gif

where to get more edge function or panel other than those few option in samsung store?

Wait for developers to create more Edge apps.

Luck? Or maybe Samsung is using battery cells of differing qualities - some better, some worse? This reminds me of the Apple 6S / 6S Plus processor fiasco - different processors (TSMC and Samsung) gave vastly different battery performance.

but for Apple 1 to 1 exchange, those devices are not new as claim from the technician whistling.gif
for example, iPhone A antenna spoiled, iPhone B antenna working fine, so they took antenna from iPhone B and put on iPhone A biggrin.gif

I am not an engineer but I notice that the battery voltage of my phone is lower than my SO's phone even the battery percentage is the same.

After almost dropping my phone several times while trying to pick it up from the table, decided to use a case already sweat.gif
The phone sides too thin and slightly slippery to hold

how true is this ?
source 1 : 2 or 3 years ago sent my sister iPhone 5 to claim warranty (power button can't press, under Apple free warranty program, so no charge), after 1 week go collect phone, check the phone imei, manufactured around 2012 or 2013

source 2 : got friend working at apple reseller, this is what they told me devil.gif

Looks like we have to wait for for an S7 edge's user to claim warranty and see what happens.

Yup, and also the batteries in the refurbished units are not new. As long as they are still of at least 80% functional capacity, then the Apple service centre will deem it 'valid for use' in refurbished units.

I think without proper tools its hard for them to have waterproofing again. If you watch jerryrigit, you wills ee their waterproofing mostly based on some sort of rubber or glue to seal it. Which I believe its not that easy without proper equipment and tools.

Yes, no issues when using cases. As long as the case isn't too thick (like those leather flip cases with polycarbonate plastic holder inside).
