I already returned my S7e haha. Im already using a nexus 6P but unfortunately it hardbricked and now in the market for a new phone. Stock Android is the lightest, therefore in theory, is smoother than any other.

One Plus 3 seems the only left option. nod.gif

agreed with you. thats why i'm happily ditch N6p (passed to my mom) when i got myself S7e. at first thought pure nexus will be smoother (or whatever the terms is) but S7E proved me wrong.
after read his comment, just out of curiosity again (in case im wrong), took my mom n6p (which installed with bare minimum apps), clear running background apps, did the same to S7e (which have around 80+ apps),did like those youtubers, launch at same time (apps like youtube, fb, dialer, contact, etc), observed that either S7E response similar or faster (which something i expected due, after all, it have more ram and more efficient SOC compared SD810 in N6P).

(both phones in stock non-root mode, with animation etc in 0.5x for both phones, both using nova launcher with same speed setting).

anyway,in semiconductor industry, not every SoC/CPU/APU/GPU will 100% match or equal from batch to batch (with minor non-significance difference) thus perhaps that's make a different between those sets around.

multitasking wise i do admit the N6P optimize to hold more apps running in background.

anyway, each to their own. everyone have their own preferences and own life experience  laugh.gif

Though said, it is actually not so fair to compare the Nexus 6p against the S7E due to the S7E has newer and better hardware. However, we are talking about fluidity and smoothness here. Nexus devices are known for the "vanilla android" which on paper, should be the most fluid and smoothest android without the additional add ons by different phone manufacturers. But somehow or rather I find the S7E to be as smooth as the Nexus 6P or maybe even slightly better even with a more feature laden touchwiz. I also find Nexus devices too "bare" in terms of android.

Bro Z2 how many speaker S7E how many speaker??? Both phones targeting different segment etc.

Err.. actually the sound from the Z series is actually not so crisp due to waterproofing flaps protecting the speakers.

so ive been using this phone for a couple of weeks..

there are somethings that im still getting used to coming from the Z3. especially the multitasking button. usually its on the left side but Samsung flips it to the other side for some reason.

i still need to get used to the Touchwiz interface which i think i will eventually.. was on IOS then Z1 > Z3 and this S7E
Really liked the lightly skinned Sony UI.

I havent noticed any lags on this yet. so far so good.

and oh my VRS case works perfectly with Clear Case
*
Like mentioned, the S7E is not supposed to lag. laugh.gif

Even reviews are mentioning it as one of the best andoid phones on the market.

ah! thanks for the suggestion! will try that out  nod.gif
Yeah i actually migrated from Z3 using the Smart Switch.. was a pretty fast and painless process..

I guess it comes down to expectation really.. Im okay with some lag, its something that ive come to expect and accepted with Android due to its eventual file defragmentation.

IOS is a great OS if only their devices that they run had much more features and the priced reasonably.

Apple and the word "Overpriced" will never be an issue for Ifags. laugh.gif

So android users should only stick with androids.

I was wondering, does anyone here use the water resistance features daily? tongue.gif

Why not? I wash my phone once in a while. I take it swimming with me to take pictures in the pool as well.

Just compared the specs between the Note 7 and S7E not much of a difference.. bigger screen and has a S-Pen plus the Iris scanner, wouldnt even say its S7E on steroids laugh.gif caters to some market i suppose

I would personally prefer the S7E for the size and how it feels to hold in the hands, find the Note series a bit too big for my liking and i prefer a phone over a phablet anyday smile.gif

Sure it'd sell as well as the S7E of course, since older Note users will look to upgrade.

Pretty happy and content with my current phone!

I would say for that specs, if it comes with dual sim and the sd card can be used all together, then it would be a seller. nod.gif

after a while.... The case will turn this colour....

Depends on the user, if you sweat a lot or your hands are dirty all the time, the case will turn yellow even faster. Mine can last six months before I replace them.

Compact? then again im only basing this on the Note 5 that my colleague is having laugh.gif always thought Note series were bigger...
definitely..i'd think its something that they do on future releases.

I hate to have to mod my sim card to fit 2 sim cards with the SD card on the S7E.

Yes, but you practically have to tear apart one Nano sim with the risk of spoiling it. Fingers crossed that Samsung has redesigned the sim tray for the Note 7.

It could be your pc and its usb connection. Some cables only allows charging and not syncing.
