Ppl always get bashed here whenever they report issues about phone here, just because the issues never happened to their phones YET then they assume that u are lying, u are trying to bring down their God phone by simply "creating" some issues that "never exist".

You are not alone. I brought my s7 edge during my travel to Hanoi Vietnam, and experimental using it as my main camera for the trip. Encountered few issues as well, like the apps popping out from nowhere, few times the screen become non responsive for few seconds or minutes especially when using the camera, and auto reboot. The pictures I showed to my friends most of them said the the pic look a bit fake, especially the pic with water inside such as rivers, Coz I think the phone tends to over sharpen the pictures. This is my second time using Samsung since s2. The experience still not that smooth. It is a great phones when it doesn't hang or auto reboot. but it can be quite annoying when it happens.

God phone? Lol It is not bashing but judge a phone is problematic in single comment is some how not right.

I never denied the issue, it is there in initial firmware. But latest firmware already solve it. Samsung always did this cause I am very familiar with it. Always got problem in initial firmware. A lot brand I use but I still back to Samsung as I find it still did the best that suite me. I can accept a month later problem get solved.

Based on his user posts with a quick search which I presume u did, it does sound like he is looking for the perfect phone ain't it? Or maybe u can tell me y he only mainly post negative stuff in every phone thread.
*
I just read back all his comment. They is one phone he never said single negative comment - HTC 10.

Maybe he is looking for HTC 10 and he do bashing all others phone from Xiaomi to Huawei to Samsung. Lol

Ppl tend to do that, but I personally just buy wut I fancy if I have the cash just don't expect it to be perfect it's a piece of tech it will get outdated fast and like all electronic it will have its issues once u have use it for x period of time.
*
Yalo just buy whatever we like. They is no perfection in this world.

Does seem like a good phone wish it has a better looking front though the buttons looks kinda like a after though maybe it looks OK in real life.

Ya the only funny I find in HTC 10 is the home button location but I think it still OK.

After M8 this is the HTC phone I feel the most nicest ever make.

Just installed Bodyguardz screen protector and so far so good, no lifting, no bubbles and installation is pretty straight forward. It's not edge to edge which is perfect for me as it allows some leeway for the casing. Very pleased with microsd, it's so fast!

Nice shoot! Now I just hope Samsung having option reduce sharpness. The sharpness is a bit over. Slight reduce will make it perfection.

Bro, what I did was just dive 4 to 5 meter for a WHILE to took those photos. It definitely not encourage to let the phone stay under the water especially sea for a long time as there is water pressure. For snorkelling should be no problem at all.  thumbup.gif

Ya. That why I said extreme not encourage. Actually dive in already not good as sea is salt. smile.gif

Happy 1 month anniversary for those who got their S7 edge on last month 17/03 smile.gif For celebration purpose, I going to root my S7 edge tmr and flash TEKXnesis HYBRID ROM. I still remember 4 years ago, I got my S3 and flashed it on the 1st day.

After tested this phone for 1 month, other than experienced twice sudden shut down while need combination key to on it back which I think is software related issue, this is the best Samsung phone I ever got. I even dive into the sea for 4 to 5 meter to take photos.

For Samsung Pay, I think by the time it launch during the 4th quarter while need to wait for other merchants to support it in Malaysia which I think will take another 1 to 2 years, I may got myself another new phone dy.

I am celebrating it without root. tongue.gif

I also received the message regarding the extended warranty.

Btw, this is a Note 6 spec. Seriously, does a phone needed 6 GB ram? Lol
*
Why not. 4GB is based now. No harm increase to 6GB or even 8GB.

Mobile phone is a small computer now. Extra RAM is a great added features.

My short summary on latest APD1 firmware
- No more hanging or auto restart.
- The added share video or photo from Motion photo is welcome.
- I actually still facing com.faceservice but lessor, this I think only affect certain user probably due to install apps. I just disable it.

What Samsung shall do in next firmware
- Further optimize the GPU as I find certain 3D games seems not that smooth compare with Note5 where it suppose be much smoother.
- Fix the heavy frame drop issue when pitch to access wallpaper, widgets, themes and grid. The animation on this area is pretty bad. No issue in Note5 or S6 Edge.

What I hope added feature in next firmware

- Ability to use themes icon only. Only change the icon but not the entire themes. Ability to join different themes setting even better.
- Ability to remove unwanted video in motion photo and save as normal photo.
- Feature to set Sharpness details in Pro mode or reduce the over sharpness issue in photo taking.

Not using it. I prefer full resolution and full speed. Haha.

How about battery consumption? Same?
Actually I never have auto restart nor hang issue with the previous firmware. Wondering should I update or not.
*

Why not. It not only fix issue but also added features and more smoother.

Battery consumption I think same. I never monitor much on that. Never care to check it.

Not sure on the games as i don't play games in my s7E.
But for movies and Zedge, it completely blocked it.

The key icon, i don't see any option to remove it.
*
I also try and it do block the entire Zedge and also that key icon at status bar is much more annoying to me. Uninstall. Haha!
