+The Tech Chap TV do a camera shootout betn iphone 6s and s7
thanks
The review had some lined sense of humor
do you live in Bath?
How to fix some awkward handling issues with the Galaxy s7 edge. Go to settings and activate the 'one hand operation' function. When you triple tap the home button, the useable screen gets smaller on the display "equalent size to the iPhone 5s screen", you can align it too the left or right depending on what hand you normally hold your phone in. All apps/ functions work normally. I use this function on my s7 edge all of the time. It's bloody brilliantly!!!!. Hope this tip helps people out 😋
really enjoy your videos great job man 👍👍👍
Purchased an S7 edge and do not regret it one bit, the best phone I've ever used.
+Jager Yeah after 1 month used, no regrets at all, really love it
Does it lag after 1 year
wolf hunter tbh i using about 4months now its good phone amd the battery is great and i see people say after 1year of use u will notice some lag
Did you ever have a problem with the display?
Thanks for the full updated review! I'm still really excited to get mine set up!
Still rocks on 2019
yeah even 2020 i got one
I'm subscribed to around 100 youtube channels that have smartphone content and this is one of the best reviews of the S7 Edge I have seen so far. Great job.

Very professional review. Subscribed.

Amazing review. Very complete!
Great review!
Was always interested in GS7E and this review is straight up honest with real life usage and down to earth aspects..
You definitely deserve more views and subs!
Keep up the good work!
+Yub Hahm thanks a lot glad you found it useful :)

+Willem de Zwijger hug! thanks very much :)
Fantastic video buddy, very informative, you've definitely helped me finally decide which smartphone to get after my Galaxy S4 died on me.
Great Video man!
I like how your desk is consistently one degree warmer towards the left-hand side.
Great review mate
Love the Samsung Galaxy S7 edge, great all round phone, thank you for your reviews, helped me chose my new phone, best phone camera I have ever used
The unresponsive keyboard when it is in your palm is a remarkable analysis and a credit to the uploader. I've watched a lot of videos online reviewing the S7 and S7 Edge and this analysis has single-handedly swayed me towards the more professional and traditional looking S7 despite its smaller screen and battery
great review sound honest. well done
Great review! It seemed to only highlight the negatives at the beginning but you really showed how great it was near the end. But nice job!
glad you watched the whole thing! :)
keep up the good work!
Great review thankyou
Great review. Getting mine tomorrow
thanks for this detailed information...this is what you call a detailed analysis... all the best for future ..
love from India
Really nice review! I'm subscribing. Thanks!
thanks! :)
You should get the vrs design shine guard clear case. It looks very stylish and still keeps the look of the phone amazing, and has a few added textures on the back and sides for a good grip! Great review!
Excellent review. I just bought the s7 Edge in gold pink and its the best phone ever for me. I don't regret the expensive purchase. Totally worth it in my opinion. I also had the s6 and note 5 but this s7 Edge is the best for me. I enjoy your video and you are the most handsome man I've seen in tech reviews. 😍😆 saludos!
I am a new sub wow great show one of the best out there great job.
I'm upgrading to the GS7 Edge from my IPhone 5S
Me too, i just ordered it yesterday :) I am sick of my Iphone 5s
RubyDimension is the s7 edge good?
Critical Enchant Hey, yeah. I love the Galaxy S7 Edge. its really quick and looks awesome. + it feels really sturdy and premium. Also android is great.
dont that already
:-)
Deenagaren Moodley What do you mean??
The best review I have watched on the s7 edge and glad you picked up on the 9.1mp drop to use 16:9 format which I think was a crazy move for Samsung not to make is 16:9 default using 12mp camera but maybe had reason for doing 4:3. thanks for a great review
brilliant review and nice to have an English accent on one of these videos! You're going to give mkhb a run for his money haha. I like the fact that you mention the little things like edges feel in the hand and the fact that you have a problem typing sometimes due to your hand touching the screen. These are the things that really matter and are the exact reason I use the normal s7 as opposed to the edge! great work, keep it up :) cheers
+Alan Williams thanks very much Alan! :) I'm a 'normal' S7 user too!
Awesome review!! Great phone.. Agree the curved edges can be quite frustrating.. But overall absolutely spectacular :))
best review i've seen on the S7
thanks :)
well presented and well thought out
Very good review.
Probably the best S7 Edge review I've seen so far. Great job!
I got mine a couple weeks ago, and at first was starting to regret it a bit because of the problem you describe where one inadvertently touches the edge. But I got a case, and that has essentially completely resolved the problem. It's also way easier to pick up and hold while using. Now that that frustration is out of the way, I'm totally loving this phone (having come from a Note 3, which I also loved, but was getting long in the tooth). Although the phone is now effectively bigger and a bit less sexy because of the case, at least it's also better protected.
I agree that the edge features themselves are of questionable utility, but they have started to grow on me a bit. Will probably just take some getting used to to integrate more seamlessly into the way I use my phone. But I do appreciate the bigger battery and screen compared to the S7. I admit I notice the difference in size between this screen and the 5.7" screen on the Note, but I'm getting used to it, and I think it will be big enough for me.
+Josh Levinson Thanks Josh! It's a shame to use the case as it definitely bulks the phone up but as you say it solves so many issues it's definitely worth doing.
Would you buy the S7 Edge? Is the curve a useful feature or useless gimmick?
I've just bought this and I cant wait for my delivery :) Considering I'm upgrading from a Galaxy trend-2 lite this will be amazing lol
That was a really helpful review. Guess I have got another thumbs up to upgrade from my S6 to S7 edge. Thank you.
glad you liked it
THE BEST PHONE REVIEW I HAVE FOUND SO FAR !!!
as a galaxy S7 user couldn't agree more with all your thoughts about it! and ...you are right about Edge model, Im really happy because I didnt go for Edge model. Edges reflect lights like crazy, its difficult to hold, etc In my opinion regular S7 is the best smartphone on the market right now !!!
Great review, im getting the gold S7Edge :)
+FalconFX lol me too tomorrow..
very honest video big respect for the truth the thing with the keys would push me to get a bit crazy at having a edge it looks good but not so. all phones are soft around the edges got to take care about that.
Nice review and totally agree about the edges. I use a case outside the house but at home and in the car, no case.
U cute
+Haroun George Thank you :)
Amazing review. This is how a review should be.
+BoyTheGenius thank you very much:)
Excellent stuff.
Thanks for the review. Your comments at 2:42 is the most important thing to consider if you are on the line about getting this vs the regular S7. As much as I would like the larger battery capacity, I would not be able to stand that frustration of your fingers or palm touching the edge of the screen interfering with its usefulness. Samsung should consider making the larger version with non-edge variant.
I bit the bullet and bought it in Gold Platinum. I'm glad I did. It's Frick end awesome!!!
currently using galaxy s5 and wanting for an upgrade.. this video convinces me even more.. gonna get the silver one in the near future..
great video ... you earn a sub👍 god job
that's great! thanks :)
I have the same experience with the curved edges. It's a really nag that it is like that. I've owned the white one of this from april 2016 to february of 2017 and sold it... Now I am fed up with white phones, so I just bought me (on the way in the mail) the Onyx Black version of the Galaxy S7 Edge - I can't help, eventhough I have the same issue with the edge, but have to purchase the new one. :) hehe! - Can't wait till I get it. - Oh and YES: I am going to make another unboxing of it as well. -thanks for very informative and nice videos Tech Chap - Really like them! -Regards from Arnt in Norway
Thank you for review. I was concerned of the keyboard letter not functionaly {P} at times for you So. I gave a small test and mine works 100% for me.
Great video, good job. I'm still not sold on the edge screen. Still seems gimmicky and as you mention a few times, annoying. Currently using the 6p, and I'm loving it! But I do miss my S-pen from my note 4, and since the Note 5 never came to Europe, I'm keeping my hopes high for the Note 6 this year! I have a feeling that it's going to be great this time! Keep up with the good work!
+Jesper Rydder I recomend you to have a look at it, in real, if you still have not done so. :)
Jesper Rydder did your feeling pan out? I hear the new Note is explosive,lol
Looking forward to that camera shoot out my man.
+Orangefire25 coming in a few days! :)
you will be a successful youtuber. you got the potential I believe. kudos!!! @thetechchaptv
great review! Just found out your channel lol :D
thanks very much :)
cheers!
+TechLineHD haaaaa GAAAAAAAAAAAAAY
what? lol :D
I bought *ASUS Zenfone 2* since 2015, and I just bought a new *S7 Edge* couple days ago, and I just wanna say that I have same opinion as you. It's *WORTH* to upgrade! thanks for the review!
amazing review very realistic and practical ! all the other reviewers are drooling over the edge phone just because of looks and recommending it also, although its much better than s6 edge plus, its still a fuss in day to day use! thats why i went for standard s7 gold!
+kunalk haha cheers!
Liked your review, first one watched, and I had a hard time deciding on the phone, I ordered a s7 edge .. and plan to use a case, I went with it due to expandable storage over the note 5 ... What is your daily driver phone?
glad you liked it. my daily driver is the galaxy s7 :)
I'm still stuck between the edge and the regular s7 unfortunately.
Thank you for the informative review anyway!
i like the review about typing in which i don't see with others. at last. not only me. which is true.
I plan on getting the s7 edge next month in gold or silver, due to the battery life of this phone and the edge features also
Holy f.. what camera are you using???? awesome video specially when you are watching this video with s7 edge
+awis kwan thanks! it's a Panasonic VX-870 at 4K.
i have the s7 edge. very much love it. i put an otterbox symmetry case on it and it works great.
very awesome & terrific!!
even though it takes away from the look of the phone, an Otter Box for S7 Edge is pretty good. Better than a crack across the screen. You can still see the black/silver/gold it came in on the front since the screen cover also lets you see the Samsung logo on the top by the camera and see the back, home, and the recents button (which is a given) So you still get to see that slick design on the curved screen and the style of the phone whether silver/black/gold. My old Motorola Mini (Red) had an Otter Box similar to this one.
nice review
i had this phone! its so beautifull !! looks and feels amazing! 😍
totally agree, upgraded from the s6 and the difference is so much more than i thought. battery life is crazy, always have atleast 30% left at the end of the day...but most importantly i noticed s7 edge is just a million times faster...so much more fluid and snappy..no regrets at all..plus that bigger screen is bombbbbb
Another great video! Do you think the Nexus 6p is still a good competitor with these phones?
+Tom Ameen I do yeah, and it's a fair bit cheaper isn't it?
Yes it is. I have the 6P and I really like it. It's tempting to get a new Samsung, but I'm really impressed with the smoothness of the 6P, plus getting timely updates has been very cool.
As someone who is a Nokia man, this will be my first time with a Samsung , I have looked at the 6 edge + but have been advised to go for the S 7 edge, so my change over date is Saturday 17th September, so am looking forward to being apart of the Galaxy family, for the very first time. and at 72 this will be a big change for me, but as they say, a change is as good as a rest.

Michael Palmer how is it going?
Loving my S7 edge
My mom got the Galaxy S7 Edge and she's in love with it, she is one of those people that puts a case on it immediately though. I think the case probably helps with typing because she hasn't complained about that very much
+Osiris Martinez yeah a case will fix most of the issues
I was having the same problem with my palm touching the edge and not allowing me to type on the keyboard. I got the Otterbox Symmetry which is quite minimalist and the problem is solved. This phone is phenomenal! I can't believe how sharp the screen is. I can't wait to play with some of the RAW images that I've been taking in Lightroom / Camera Raw
great one... just got mine few days ago. :)
Great video, really informative, cogent... well edited, didn't really feel too long... Need to work on your music though... you are aware that the OMD style New Romantic Pop fad disappeared with shoulder pads, La Rocka branding and bum tight soccer shorts... You do know we're in the 2010s now not the 80s..? Still gave you a Like and my Subs...
+Rodney Ewan Coke haha thanks well I suppose music is very subjective, haven't heard of the OMD acronym but I'll definitely take a look at the music I use
+Rodney Ewan Coke haha thanks well I suppose music is very subjective, haven't heard of the OMD acronym but I'll definitely take a look at the music I use
+The Tech Chap TV
OMD Is Orchestral Monoveures in the Dark, an old New Romantic, synth pop band from the early 80s. Their most famous song I suppose is Enola Gay... They were part of the same musical vogue or wave as Duran Duran, Human League, Heaven 17, Spandau Ballet, Depeche Mode etc... Some of the music you use sounds very OMDish... Human League were perhaps the strongest artistically of those. Who knows maybe you'll start a trend and bring it all back..?
+Rodney Ewan Coke learn something new everyday! Thanks for explaining that :)
what a good review, i bought s7edge and i was not disappointing a great phone to have, camera, the sd slot, battery life and water proofing is the best deal this phone has to offer and one more thing the design is stunningly beautiful, both hands up
good review bro
+pepito cordova Thanks very much :)
very nice thanks
Solid review! Thank you! I ditched my HTC One M8 (that I still really loved after only a year) for the incredible display on the S6 Edge, but I've been regretting it for nearly a year because of the HORRIBLE battery life. Now I'm torn between sticking with Samsung and going with the S7 Edge, or going back to HTC and getting the 10. Sure, the Edge screen is kind of a gimmick, but I do use it since they upgraded it. Decisions! Decisions! Thanks again for a stellar review!
+TheRobbSki having used all the phones you've mentioned, I'm sticking with the standard s7
great review and great phone...but somehow i am used to my 5.7 inch screen on note 3 n9005... will wait for note 6 definetly...hopefully they return removable battery to new note phones as it is very usefull just to change battery when phone is empty and you are in the middle of nowhere.
nice review!im sad right now because i just got my s6 edge plus last month, i should've waited. should i be worried? just subscribed to your channel by the way
+Joseph Tinsay Thanks Joseph. The S6 edge plus is still a great phone, a lot of people don't think the S7 to be a significant upgrade so I reckon you're good until the S8 comes out :)
+The Tech Chap TV thanks!i feel a lot better. i will wait for the s8 edge plus if there is lol
Great review as always 👍
best review for s7 edge
this guy wasn't even pressing the buttons lol pretending that he was
+Trystan Dagg use a case. it stops that.
+Cameron retason Even with some cases..
+Trystan Dagg it's shouldn't with a bezel case. otherwise toy just can't hold a phone right.
@@trystan07 then there something wrong with it because my s7 edge doesnt and has NEVER done that and I have never head one issue with it
If I didn't had a Nexus 6P, I might get it. Looks amazing.
6p still the king
Just to let everyone know, any case you get will fix the palm touching the screen annoyance. I have a slim case and it still keeps my palm well away from the edge of the screen
Upgraded to the S7 edge from the Note 4. I am so glad I did!
Hey,new sub. Got a quick question,have you had any use or time with the Xiaomi Redmi Pro at all as I was thinking of getting one for my son??
Cheers.
I haven't unfortunately :/ sorry about that
The OtterBox case works superbly.
Hey there nice video but I have 2 questions. The first one being how much fps does the s7 camera record at and also are you gonna do a give away anytime soon because I would like to get a chance at getting that cheeky s7 😀
1080p30/60, 1440p30, 4k30. haha I would love to do a give away but I'm still quite a small tech channel and don't have the budget just yet :)
+The Tech Chap TV totally understandable, keep up the good work
+The Tech Chap TV Every journey of a thousand miles begins with one step.
man I want this phone for Christmas been a long time since I had a Samsung
Brenda Manuel get it when there is Christmas sales (if your area has Christmas sales)
I love both phones it's really hard to choose which one to buy
for the probs relating the accidental touching the edges, you will fix the prob by using a case..aswell, you'll save the phone of being broken or dented..there are only a minor number of people with edges that I know that have no marks on them..
the s7 edge is the best phone of ever.
very surprised you think this phone digs into your delicate hands, as you are like the only reviewer who doesn't think this is very comfortable to hold in the hand. but then again, you are the only one i have listened to who didn't get the need for a case, until you learned it the hard way. so such is life. as for the keyboard, you are also the first one i've heard to mention this, but you can use swiftkey, which lets you resize the keyboard. other than those afore mentioned points, pretty decent review.
+Stev We Thanks Stev - well it will be different for everyone as your grip won't be the same as mine so it may be worth trying one out in a shop first - and for sure a case will make it easier to hold and obviously protect it too :)
+The Tech Chap TV you can resize the Samsung keyboard too.
i use the spigen neo hybrid case, which makes it very easy to pickup, hold and use. i have zero accidental touches, and it is well protected. plus the lines are the neo hybrid case are exactly the same lines as the s7e. it's beautiful.
