Had the Galaxy S7 Edge for a few months, and more than happy with it. 32Gb with a 128Gb SD card, waterproof, brilliant camera and screen. What's not to like?
^ touch jizz...
ops... wizzzzz
although mine and your phone, does have the best screen, camera can still hold its own against the new dual camera iphone 7 plus... I'm just a fussy prick - small things *annoyances do my head in...
last week for instance, going to dad's for dinner... my fucking phone's GPS map, took us oh so tantalizingly close to Dad's street, took us down dead end roads and around in circles.., little fucker! wasted 30 mins of my life I can never get back.. I can vouch the Sg6 is a tough bastard, cause I thumped the shit out of it, in frustration heh...
had to resort to using Mrs. Dick's iphone 4 to save the day... oh the shame...
if you don't sweat the small stuff - and or love to customize your phone S7/S6 are still good (if not as buttery smooth as the new iphone)...which, for this incarnation, was more of a refinement of the near perfect iphone 6s, than a revolution. Apple are saving up their wizardry for the 10th Anniversary iphone 8 next year.
Oh, one more consideration: if you buy any android phone (at least in NZ) don't expect to be able to sell it in the future for a good price... at least with iphone, you
can always sell it on at a decent price.

I had the complete opposite experience with Samsung.
An overreaction during a domestic tiff caused my spanking new phone to launch itself against the wall. With some force.
First trip to samsung and they happily replaced the screen, clicked all the hanging bits back into place and didn't charge me a thing despite the damage clearly being outside the conditions of the warranty.
Then a few days later the screen became unresponsive. So they put a new hard-drive (I guess its called. The main bit of the phone without the screen) onto the new screen. Again, no charge.
3 years on and it still works fine (apart from a pretty weak battery)
^ Like I said, I'm just an ultra weird/fussy/OCD guy about phones (and to be honest, the smallest details about everything in life really lol)...
Aliens could invade and I would be unperturbed - I notice the slightest lag, stutter glitch on my phone and it ruins my day...
I've given up being a spec-whore... oh look! my phone has 4 gig of ram! and 6 trillion pixels (that my eyes can't fooking see!)...
yeah bro, good on ya! but it still fooking stutters like a gigaboo...
I'm getting older, I want nice, reliable things... that's why I sold my fag hairdresser SLK 350, for a Toyota wish hah..
If on a budget
Attach your goosdself Teelak to piece of string
Use two old tins
You may find local reception adequate

If you just want a phone but with a brilliant camera, then this is nice:

I have a Samsung hoover, it's old and it sucks, I think Tony might be interested in one?
I got one of these a little while back:
ZTE Blade A711 16GB (Silver) | Lazada.co.th
So far it's been flawless.
Nice and quick, very nice screen and reasonable camera and the best thing for me is that it doesn't come loaded up with all sorts of crapola that I will never use, fingerprint scanner to wake it up which is very handy. Can be dual sim or 1 sim+memory card in the second slot.
Plus, at a hair under 4,500 Baht I won't lose any sleep when I inevitably accidentally sit on it or drop it into a bucket of water or something.
It has compass functionality too which might be of interest.
bibo ergo sum
If you hear the thunder be happy - the lightening missed.
This time.

They do an Android phone too (more expensive)- but can anyone explain why i should bother?
^ You guys are penny pinchers... phones range in price from $100 - right up to iphone 7 plus obscenely priced @ $1,600... (kiwi money).
I admit, no matter how much you have in the bank, $1,600 is hard to justify (for a bloody phone!)... you can buy a mid-range laptop for that sort of money FFS..
That's why I'm procrastinating the inevitable switch to iphone...
Please consider a OnePlus phone. I have the OnePlus One and it is easily the best phone I have ever had. Current model is OnePlus ThreeOriginally Posted by sabang
