Do you still think that the S7 edge is a great phone to buy in 2017? P.S. I will go to the Galaxy S8/S8+ official launch event and I will make the hands-on video for you guys ASAP!
While everyone is shouting about S8, I wanted to see how S7 edge is performing now after one long year. Glad to see you did exactly what I thought :-) Great review by the way.
Zed Rameses I use the Edge features a lot, mainly because I downloaded an Edge panel that let's me lock my screen with a software button and also has a Screenshot software button which thankfully saves me the hastle to press the Home and Power Key at the same time to take a screenshot. It also has a home key software button so I can have a consistent touch based experience without pressing on the annoying physical home button which adds inconsistencies in a touchscreen phone in my opinion. I use Edge feed to activate fingerprint scanner when the phone is in standby so I don't need to press home key/ power key to wake up the phone before the fingerprint scanner is ready to scan my finger.
Zed Rameses it's a software feature and you don't need the Edge to have that. Pure gimmick to justify the Edge display. I tried the Edge and it was awful, silly design for design sake. The fingerprint sensor was hit and miss and my Tab S3 is even worse, not well done Samsung. As for updates of Android, no point buying expecting that, if you get one years you are lucky, Sony, HTC and Apple at least try to give three years updates. This is now very cheap so at less than half the cost of the s8 plus it is a good buy despite the many issues, though there are many other choices that I would buy over any Samsung device.
Almost bought it when it released. It is still working like it was new to this day. I dopped it a couple of times so the phone got some dead pixels. Also one crack in the corner so i can't have it in water im guessing.
I have my S7 edge for 2 weeks now and I love it! I mean offcourse the s8 is better and looks better but still this s7 edge is amazing. The only bad thing I have now is that all the glass screen protectors suck because of the edge. I love the looks of the bend screen.
TechLineHD thanks for the feedback! I allready have two minor ones. when the screen is on you see that little green line. I am so carefull cant imagine how they came there. fixable with thootpaste 😂?
Hi great review! Im looking for a new phone since my LG3 has chargibg socket problems.I was wondering what did you exactly mean by your beloved 1+3T (??) around 3:28 thank you
Hi, thanks a lot! I meant that I love OnePlus 3T smartphone. It is the best phone under $450. However, I would recommend the Galaxy S7 edge if you can get it for a similar price (for better camera, water resistance, display).
Thank you so much for the reply. In my country (Turkey it is) we dont have that brand. And the price is smilar (differance is around 50-75 dollars) I think Ill go with S7 Thanks again!
Thanks for very informative video... Please tell me what is the defect of pink or purple line I just have bought that phone some people say its a major issue in many s7 edge... please tell me if its true so how much percent this issue held with people or is this a manufacturing fault..
Great review Linus you're video is the best for me all the time i order S7 Edge pearl black 128gb today in Dubai i what about the battery life can last me a full day
Hi. i was wondering if you have used a screen protector on your s7 edge since last year? was there any scratches on it? im just curious coz i want to try not using one on mine, i keep on chaging mine because of the different cases i have.
hairline scratches yeah, there are some... but I didn't really take care of the phone. the is much more sturdier than it looks like. However, I already switched to the Galaxy S8.. just to have the latest phone but I still use the S7 edge
Great review ! Thanks ! I want to buy a new smartphone and i'm hesitating between Galaxy S7 edge and Galaxy S7. Which one I should go for ? Which one is best ?
I'm actually considering buying the S8 now :) . I've seen lots of comparison reviews between S8 and S7 Edge and I felt like it's worth the upgrade. I'm currently using a Note 5 which is a very strong phone and I still love it but I found it very big and too heavy for my little hands. Good luck with your choice !
So, it's my birthday in a couple weeks, and I was looking at either the S8 or the S7 Edge. Which one should I go for (on contract) ? I love the design of both, but mostly the S8. From what I've heard, the S7 Edge has been slowing down a ton lately. Is the S8's price justifiable?
S7 edge is clearly a better deal at the moment but if you can get a good deal on a contract, take the S8. It is simply a newer phone that has probably the best design in the market
could you tell me why by any chance? for me they're about the same price. 3t is faster and more durable, hasn't quite got the features the s7 has but still has a pretty decent camera. S7 has the better display but is 1440p necessary for a phone? one thing I do prefer with s7 is the size. Any help would be appreciated. I would say I mainly use my phone for apps and browsing and when I'm home RUclips. to a lesser degree I use the phone for camera and gaming. I don't remember which phones battery is better though
you should have shown the uptime for everyone to see that it really has been used for a year and not just recently device re-set, a big difference performance-wise.. just a thought.
I’m thinking to get it cus I have an iPhone 6s right now and I want to change but I don’t know what Samsung to get J5 S6 S7 Or S7 edge. I want the S7 edge but is it too late to get it now for Xmas ? Plz reply
Love the review But I have a Question is it comunly to get the pink vertical line I mean I want the s7 edge But Im scare to get the Line. Does the line will appear on Every S7edge Thanks I want a response thanks!!
..I like smartphone with stunning camera... but, considering the price... (and the overall value, totally...), which one shall I choose : S7, or Mi5s..?
I personally love the edge screen and keep it simple, I use only one edge panel and that is the device maintenance. That way I have all my ram and storage and anti virus software at the swipe of a button, it keeps my phone in perfect working order because atleast twice a day I wipe the cached data from the ram and clean up spam files that have made their way onto my phone.
thanks! Exynos is better optimized for Samsung phones but in general, the difference is negligible. I would still take Exynos, just make sure that phone is compatible with your local 4G bands
Do you still think that the S7 edge is a great phone to buy in 2017? P.S. I will go to the Galaxy S8/S8+ official launch event and I will make the hands-on video for you guys ASAP!
TechLineHD buy a S6 and save money
Bad battery backup though and no micro sd slot :'(
had the S6. Motherboard failed.
Yes. it's worth it.
TechLineHD its a great device but better phones out there but wait another month for the S8 or even better if you can wait then wait for the Note 8
While everyone is shouting about S8, I wanted to see how S7 edge is performing now after one long year. Glad to see you did exactly what I thought :-) Great review by the way.
thanks a lot! glad you enjoyed it!
you are right about the finger print scanner!!
hi, is the fingerprint button have a scratch ? most ppl said it is easy to scratched
Still worth ? I plan to buy it next week....
yes, it is still worth it
Thank for reply love your channel i subbed!!!!
this will worth even in 2019
Negan Lannister so which do you reccomended in this price ??? I can't afford s8...
Maybe iphone SE?
Glad I subscribed to this channel. well done
thanks a lot for the support!
AM I the ONLY one who actually likes and uses the edge features? Let me know if I'm not alone in this.
Me too...but some people quiet don't like the edge features which i really don't know the reason Lol

Zed Rameses i use it daily tbh.
Zed Rameses My edge features are my go to when navigating through my phone daily.

thanks a lot man!
This phone is amazing! I'm so happy with it I have never had any problems with it. It's a freaking beast!

TechLineHD Great review man
Still Looks good and Perfectly fine in functionality after a year. And looks better than the over-priced iPhone 7plus. Ahahaha
angel manansala looks better than the iphone 8 too.
well done mate! uve got a new subscriber here 😄
thank you and thanks for the sub!
I have my S7 edge for 2 weeks now and I love it! I mean offcourse the s8 is better and looks better but still this s7 edge is amazing. The only bad thing I have now is that all the glass screen protectors suck because of the edge. I love the looks of the bend screen.
that's awesome!
Great review Linus pls i want to buy the S7 Edge pearl black can the battery last me full day and i love the S7 better than S8 and S8+
Watching on my s7 edge 😊
Very helpful... thank you, been looking for a proper review of S7 Edge after 1-year usage and here I found your video which clears all my doubts.
I'm glad you liked it! My GF still uses it and loves it. I now use the S8 since the official launch and may do the after 1 year review too!
TechLineHD You're Welcome... sure I'll be watching it too.. thanks 👍
Is the screen scratched after a year use ?
Used with or without protectors ?
not really. Just minor marks that I can't even see when I use the phone. Used without any screen protectors or cases
TechLineHD thanks for the feedback! I allready have two minor ones. when the screen is on you see that little green line. I am so carefull cant imagine how they came there. fixable with thootpaste 😂?
great shots bro 😎
thanks!

thanks! My phone does not have this issue. Please return your phone, it may be a hardware fault.
I'm also using it for one year! Still a great phone!
awesome!
What about bettery life
I JUST BOUGHT ONE TODAY ! GREAT VIDEO
thanks!
Did you take good care about it?
Great review Linus you're video is the best for me all the time i order S7 Edge pearl black 128gb today in Dubai i what about the battery life can last me a full day
Can you say what is the name of that shooting game you have played in review? Thanks
it is Modern Combat 5
i have a samsung galaxy edge s7, too. after a year, the vibration is not work anymore but never mind, i still use this phone for daily driver :)
Hi. i was wondering if you have used a screen protector on your s7 edge since last year? was there any scratches on it? im just curious coz i want to try not using one on mine, i keep on chaging mine because of the different cases i have.
no, I haven't used any screen protectors.
cool. did you notice any hairline scratches so far?
hairline scratches yeah, there are some... but I didn't really take care of the phone. the is much more sturdier than it looks like. However, I already switched to the Galaxy S8.. just to have the latest phone but I still use the S7 edge
Great review ! Thanks ! I want to buy a new smartphone and i'm hesitating between Galaxy S7 edge and Galaxy S7. Which one I should go for ? Which one is best ?
Gonna buy one of those to. The edge has edges on the screen, is bigger and has a longer battery life. So, i think im gonna buy that !
I'm actually considering buying the S8 now :) . I've seen lots of comparison reviews between S8 and S7 Edge and I felt like it's worth the upgrade. I'm currently using a Note 5 which is a very strong phone and I still love it but I found it very big and too heavy for my little hands. Good luck with your choice !

S7 edge is clearly a better deal at the moment but if you can get a good deal on a contract, take the S8. It is simply a newer phone that has probably the best design in the market
TechLineHD thanks for the quick reply, mate. Will take your advice, and look for a good deal on the S8
Would you get this or the Oneplus 3T? I wouldn't get the edge however, just the regular s7.
Stephen Thomas i have the exact same question
S7 :)
S7
could you tell me why by any chance? for me they're about the same price. 3t is faster and more durable, hasn't quite got the features the s7 has but still has a pretty decent camera. S7 has the better display but is 1440p necessary for a phone? one thing I do prefer with s7 is the size. Any help would be appreciated. I would say I mainly use my phone for apps and browsing and when I'm home RUclips. to a lesser degree I use the phone for camera and gaming. I don't remember which phones battery is better though
I definitely wouldn't call myself an audiophile, as long as the music is decent I'll be ok.
QUALITY REVIEW
thank you!
you should have shown the uptime for everyone to see that it really has been used for a year and not just recently device re-set, a big difference performance-wise.. just a thought.
Does it get slow on daily high usage
Feeling happy with my s7edge it's been 2 long years already😊
I’m thinking to get it cus I have an iPhone 6s right now and I want to change but I don’t know what Samsung to get J5 S6 S7 Or S7 edge. I want the S7 edge but is it too late to get it now for Xmas ? Plz reply
Any retention images from status bar, keyboard layouts or social apps? How much white color became yellowish comparing with new one S7?
the display is all good, works as new
TechLineHD do you use Twitter app? It has static blue elements, afraid of burn-in issue with that
Great after-one-year review.
Love the review But I have a Question is it comunly to get the pink vertical line I mean I want the s7 edge But Im scare to get the Line. Does the line will appear on Every S7edge Thanks I want a response thanks!!
Hi, thanks! No, my phone does not have this issue and it's been used very intensively all the time
TechLineHD thanks bro I apreciate your reply!!!!
I have an S8 but I'm still in love with the S7 edge, still a very beautiful phone
i have my S5 living
just flash custom rom like cm. I flashed cm13 on my s5 mini and now it isnt lagging at all
locote92chilango i still have my S4 but also s7e 😋
I have S3,A3, S7
Bro your voice is golden lol. The accent is just a bonus
Chris collins thanks a lot man!
How is the battery life?
Which Should i go for galaxy note 5 or galaxy s7?My budget USD $400.
Mehedi Hassan S7 is better overall. Ip 68, exynos 8890
s7 is more future proof
galaxy s7
I like the s-pen functionality.Should I sacrifice galaxy s7 only for s-pen?How much update can I get in galaxy note 5 in future ?
Mehedi Hassan S7 or edge
does it hang after a year??
Those are beautiful landscapes
just traded in my s7 edge for an s8 plus and I'm glad I did I'm loving my s8 plus
The s8 plus was a little to big for me, so I went with the s8. Been loving it so far
-Thanks for the tech tips, Linus.-
-You are welcome-
..I like smartphone with stunning camera...
but, considering the price... (and the overall value, totally...), which one shall I choose : S7, or
Mi5s..?
take the S7
TechLineHD
thank you, Mister..
hazrat avisenna s7 definitely. No comparison here. I've used some xiaomi devices, quirky as hell.
Are you still use it?
yes, have my SIM card in it :)
TechLineHD Nice, now I wonder what s9 will look like....
Does this phone have android 8.0 yet? For the us models
yes
I personally love the edge screen and keep it simple, I use only one edge panel and that is the device maintenance. That way I have all my ram and storage and anti virus software at the swipe of a button, it keeps my phone in perfect working order because atleast twice a day I wipe the cached data from the ram and clean up spam files that have made their way onto my phone.
I must have gotten a unit that was made on a Friday afternoon just before happy hour because I've had a totally different experience.
Which phone is better between I phone 6s or 7 vs Galaxy s7 edge?
Galaxy s7 edge
TechLineHD
Thank You soo much bro..@😊
Is the camera of oneplus 3T better than S7 edge? My oneplus 1 just died so im planning on getting a new phone.
s7 edge
I bought the s7edge today good battery power as I use my device alot plus pictures are nice aswell glad I got the s7edge today
Should I upgrade to this from my note 5?
well, you won't see a huge difference, to be honest. Note 5 is still a great phone
Is S7E camera better, especially video an image stabilization than in 3T?
yes
Watching this on my HTC One M7. Still Rocking !! :D
I had that phone for a year or so. Loved it.
Have you experienced any Lag with the exynos model?
a little bit of stutter from time to time but the phone is now a lot faster with the latest Nougat update
i see, thank you very much for the feedback.
great video. subscribed. 😁
thanks a lot for the sub and support!
seriously the best phone I've ever owned. i still love it
i am going to buy it..
and i think its still worth it..
Devil Meh me too but black pearl edition
Got my S7 Edge for free. Is that cheap enough?
s7 edge is still my favorite phone next is the other phone on Samsung S series
whats the name of the shooting game?
This phone is perfectly fine. Only nerds need to worry about little specs but this is great for apps, battery wise and txt/ calls.
i am also planning to buy s7 egde can anyone tell me real rugged case for s7 edge thanks in advance
should i update my at&t snapdragon s7 edge to nougat?
I am on 6.0.1 atm.
yes, you should. The phone will become a bit faster
great work man!! i wanna buy s8 anyone please tell me what's the difference between snapdragon and exynos? and which one is better?
thanks! Exynos is better optimized for Samsung phones but in general, the difference is negligible. I would still take Exynos, just make sure that phone is compatible with your local 4G bands
are you using a case? (guess not) tnx
no, I hate cases :)
TechLineHD wowowo
will this phone last for 2 year cus im planning to buy it
yes, it will. Using it as my daily driver
TechLineHD without slight lag?
my s7 edge is heating????
i reset also
Still worth? Planning to buy it soon.
Yes, still works very well! My GF uses it every day and I use the S8
I dont want to boast about samsung product but certainly s7 edge is still beast in perfomance and battery.been using it for 2 year already...
samsung a5 2017 or samsung s7 ?
S7. Check out the comparison on my channel: ruclips.net/video/K6EMXmOd970/видео.html
Nice review....
Does the phone lag after android update 7.0??
no, the phone became faster
Okey thanks for the review. Tomorrow i will buy. 😀😀😀
Thanks for watching!
Can you tell me how is the battery life after 1 year?Thanks and you get sub and like for the great shots.
thanks! the battery life is still pretty good. I'm getting about 4.5 h of screen-on time
This thing will be worth it forever why? Because its already good that upgrading is just a waste of money
how is the screen on time ?
about 4-5 hours but it really depends on how you use the phone
TechLineHD Ok thanks. Waiting for the Mi 6 :)
if u guys still using it tell me please if do u get any hardware issue
Still works fine!
iphone 7 or s7 edge i dont know which to get
s7 edge
when you said you dropped it 3 times i flinched
haha :)
How much is it now that there is an s8
I literally thought that there was a hair strand on my cell lmao
I just bought a perfect condition s7 edge for only $250 I used to have a j3 s5 and note 3 definitely worth my $250
I got on offerup btw
Awesome deal!
Order mine but in Coral Blue, getting delivery tomorrow :P
awesome!
this or Oneplus 3T?
this
my s7 edge after about 1 year it starts to lag a lot...
Mystic Arceus a lot
Same 😭😭😭
Concordo! O S7 Edge 128gb é melhor do que o S8 Plus. Em tudo, na tela, no hardware!
j5 2016 here🤗🤗
Un año y no le a salido la línea rosa?
:'(
even gs6 is still beutiful and fast as hell..
can any 1 tel what to do ????
Watching it on s7 edge
I really like this phone but it's still expensive so I couldn't buy it and now I have a samsung A5
The curved screen is so pointless. Now Samsung makes all their displays like that. What a stupid move!!
best phone ever
my screen on time is 3 hr max on Nougat
When you said 4k video it sounded like forky
hahah :D Yeah, I need to work on my pronunciation, sorry for that!
So it is true that Samsung phones experience stutters/slowdowns after a year..
Cliff Bryan it depends on how you use it, most phones are like that when you used them a lot
good night moon Haha true
no phones on planet are immune to slowdowns after a year
brown bobby huawei phones are immune
Cliff Bryan I have Huawei g8 for 1 year and 4 months and it is going too fast
dropping on hard concrete .... that is bad care .. hahah
