Samsung Galaxy S7 edge (USA) - User Reviews

  • me also ,,idont know hot to update into pie version

  • how??

  • You can install app choose 4LTE/3G and choose mode LTE/WCDMA

  • This shit is only for USA.don't buy in others countries.you will face problems, like 4g will not work signal drops etc.it is better to chose t ,f,or at&t models

  • I have a phone G. S7 edge Usa . It have big problem some time have drop call. I'm in Viet nam, sim kit I'm using is 1800 MHz(2G). I don't know why? Please help me.

  • Go to Settings then scroll down to the very last entry for "System Updates"

  • s7 will get 9.0 sometime in april

  • I have the S7 edge USA Verizon SM-G935V and no option to update the software when you go to the "about phone" menu and i am outside USA. any idea on whether the upgrade is available for this brand please?

  • I have the S7 edge USA Verizon SM-G935V and no option to update the software when you go to the "about phone" menu and i am outside USA. any idea on whether the upgrade is available for this brand please?

  • my phone keepsw updating some security option for like 10 times. im sick ..

  • did you already update how coz my 935v doesn't have option in about phone i cant see software update can you help me im still in android marshmallow thank you.

  • Im using S7Edge from T-Mobile - very fast phone, great battery, no lags on games (Dragon Nest Mobile&Ragnarok M). Fast Charging. Super wow phone. LTE+ when im using it (I am in Philippines)

  • this is very slow hand set.

  • The LTE bands for the Verizon hardware are listed wrongly. See this post for more info:

  • My Galaxy S7 Edge, Unlocked US (SM-G935U) just got the Oreo upgrade. The kernel was upgraded to 64 bit variant , Android Version is 8.0.0 / SDK26. What is neat is that the Bluetooth audio stack got a bunch of updates, to include SBC, aptX, and the LDAC (Sony) codecs (besides Samsung HD).

  • In terms of performance, they are almost the same. SD820 has better single-core and graphics performance. Exynos 8890 has better multi-core and browsing performance. Can't go wrong either way.

  •  Snapdragon 820 vs Exynos 8890 which ome is the fastest

  • LoL, Europe got nougat like august 2017, and today should be released Oreo for s7 edge also in Europe. I guess that your carriers sux so badly in keeping phone updated.

  • Getting over heat and restarting so many times g935t

  • nougat for USA s7 will be on the summer :)

  • Have they updated the s7 edge on ATT (935A) to Nougat yet?

  • I agree with you, I have a 935v verizon model and it was successfully abdicated with new software with a security patch from 01.01.2018 ... Abdeite is done through the software verification software that is in the phone and the installation appears when the phone is connected to the pc ...

  • i am in egypt buy s7e verizon (g935v)come from usa have problem 1- 4g not working with android 7 2- when use hand free only one speaker work lift only in earphone 3- when i bought it with android 6.0.1 it build ( g935f) not can upgrade with same build i upgraded to 7.0 with ( g935v) can help me

  • I have s7 edge 935A and still not get nuaghat update when will release nuaghat software in this model?

  • If you have the Verizon variant and living outside the US, you need a PC to update the phone, just plug it then choose install software in USB options in the notification bar, it will install the software, from there you can update the phone.

  • Please does anybody know how I can update this phone to Android 7.0 ?

  • Hi everyone.... I'm facing updates issue.....samsung is not bringing updates properly even security patch is out of date it's Dec. And I've received last update in August....

  • Which update man!?

  • I am having the same issue with this model did you get your update

  • That particular model wasn't manufactured for the U.S.

  • If you flash (carefully) the correct firmware for your provider it will work on said provider, at least for the US providers I've tried. I got my phone, physically it's a SM-G935P, but I have flashed it to the Verizon firmware and used it on their network with all the correct LTE bands, and am not using it with the unlocked (SM-G935U) firmware on T-Mobile with VoLTE and VoWiFi with no issues. Great phone.

  • i have s7 edge from verizon and its not working here in the Philippines. It only shows Simcard is not from verizon. Can read local simcards. worst ever.

  • Dear users, I saw this ad of a Verizon S7 edge with DUAL sim. Can any of you explain how is this possible? The phone even got the Verizon logo and everything... (32 GB, 4GB RAM)

  • probably not if it's not the international version. The US version only uses specific cell towers with the antennas inside

  • are you looking at the gsm version or the cdma version?

  • I think the difference is antennas that tmobile and at&t use where sometimes tmobile piggy backs off of at&t's cell towers

  • Aside from the network bands, All USA phones have the exact same specs. Both T-Mobile and AT&T connect via the same band technology, GSM. If you're planning to use this phone in your country, make sure your network provider is providing GSM signals and not CDMA. Personally I would pick a T-Mobile phone over an AT&T. T-Mobile does not have an obvious 'trampstamp' (forced logo stamping on product) on the back of their phone and T-Mobile phones are easier to unlock than other service providers.

  • Anyone can please tell me that the which version is better T-mobile or At&t? And what is the diffrence between in these models? i am from pakistan and in that case which version is better work? Please please please tell me i am very confused and i want to buy

  • is blocked in verizon? is brand verizon on back?

  • is blocked in verizon? is brand verizon on back?

  • when i get the nougat update for Samsung g935a ?

  • Yes yes yes yes yes yes yes you can used

  • no, you will get arrest :P

  • NOPE!

  • Easily the worst variant of the S7 edge. Haven't seen so much lag and stuttering animation since my Nexus One which was still on Gingerbread. You will see stutter while typing fast, look for addresses on GMaps, or when you pull down the shade. I also hate typing on this as sometimes as I cup the phone in my palm tightly and it creates too many typos. I downloaded a bunch of episodes of The Walking Dead and some films using a torrent app called Flud on my LG G5, and no stutter or micro-lag. I downloaded a bunch of videos using TubeMate on my Pixel yesterday, and smooth as buttah. But if I type really fast with SwiftKey on this S7e, it stutters and lags. Garbage software optimization. Better off getting a OnePlus 3T because this made in Vietnam, SD820 variant is laggy and overrated af! Was willing to give Samsung a chance and they messed up here. My Note 3 runs smoother than it. Might sell it off and get an Xperia XZ. Pretty phones don't always make them reliable and good looking people aren't always reliable either. Just fun to look at but not fun to be with.

  • can i use this smartphone while am outside USA?

  • US version is single sim only.

  • Are Samsung s7 Edge USA dual sim or Single sim. Will i be able to insert 2 SIM in USA phone and use it in India ...If yes how ?

  • YESSSSSSS, absolutely right you are!!! ❤❤❤

  • Awesome phone. Good lowered price from Verizon. Got the Titanium Silver. Lasts up to 3 days for me. Very fast. Great display. A lot of useful features including heart rate monitor. Slim form factor. Highly recommended as prices seem to be going lower due to the Galaxy S8's arrival within next few months.

  • Iphone 7 or s7 edge which one in better ?? Do suggest guyz

  • I had an HTC 10 for a week. It was in my pocket during a rainstorm and never functioned again. Replaced it with the s7 Edge and haven't looked back. I use it for work and consistently get more than 2 days from a charge.

  • Hello, GSMarenans :D Let me get straight to the point. I recently got SM-935U Olympic edition(USA version of course) and I was just wondering if it'll work in China and Korea(since I'll travel those places for a while haha). Is it all different from SM-935F version? Thanks in advance! :) +If you have more time, you may answer this question as well. xD I've also got LGV10-H901(T-mobile version). Which one should I bring with me to my trip? V10 or S7 edge? Will V10 work in China/Korea? Considering battery life(I have an extra battery for v10 and I've also got 12000mah power bank - My V10 lasts around 4-5 hours and S7 edge lasts around twice as much as that. Of course, I'll take a whole bunch of pictures in those places xD) and such which one would be better? Thanks!

  • just got this phone and it sure is sexy... but the beveled edge is annoying as my palm easily touches it and usabilti of the phone drops dramatically! hopefully the screen case will take of that ( ive read a review of the case and said the case helped with acidental edge clicks/touches

  • Not even kinda worth the hype. Screen is pretty, sure, but that curved screen causes issues that make the phone unusable for me. Pie Control is a better implementation of their limited edge screen features, but the curved part of the screen is treated as dead pixels by that and any other third party app. Between that and being harassed about screen overlays every time I want to grant a permission to an app, I give this phone a 3/10.

  • You are saying that you dont ship to my Country. I am currently in South Sudan but the shipment can still be done to Kenya. Please let me know if that is possible. regards, Johnson

  • Download Smart Switch for Samsung. Move old content via USB or Bluetooth

  • The phone is super ok it looks good, only one downside The screen easily cracks near the speaker and is fucking expensive almost 1/2 of the phone price . And the company doesn't deserve more than a 4 on a scale up to 10 for managing the problem even if the product is in waranty period, at least in Romania. For me it took a month in service .

  • Mine can last for two days without charging with heavy use mostly movies...such a great phone....

  • How am I going to retrieve deleted photos from my Samsung S7 Edge US?

  • Because it is such an underrated phone that no one ever heard of.

  • why the us version use quad core snapdragon and international version use octa core exynos.

  • Galaxy S7 Edge is the best smartphone out hands down, has the best camera, best battery life, water/dust resistant, fast charging, 2k AMOLED display, gorgeous looking phone. Perfect sized phone. I have tried HTC 10, Nexus 6P, LG V10, Axon 7, Honor 8, and all these phones have something great about them. But if you look overall as a complete package, I find that to be S7 Edge. It is the best phone out for Android users.

  • Don't know why you are saying that it lags and the battery does not last long. Had mine for 5 months and still get thru a full day of heavy use. You be a apple fan or something.

  • poor battery life,laggy,charger heats,burn ins after 3mos,poor software update. dont buy this

  • i think the edge is a gorgeous phone. i also love the longer lasting battery it has.

  • HTC 10 is the best phone. drop a edge and watch it break in seconds. Worthless.

  • Well... Actually the brand new Sony xperia xz is the top dog this year 2016. S7 edge might be a great phone but the xperia xz is simply a master piece. Its time for Samsung fans to start thinking outside the box.

  • Talk, think of the best phone money can buy in all aspects. S7 EDGE ohhhh. I wana own one.

  • Great phone IMO The "addition" of FM radio accessibility has been a fantastic change (even though it was a poor idea to remove access before)

  • You can by the official unlocked USA version from the Manufacturer or the site will redirect you to authorized online retailers. By the way, the USA unlocked version is only issued in SILVER TITANIUM (sm-935uzsaxaa).

  • can anybody let me know how much it cost me to get a s7 edge in US? I'm thinking about an installation. thnx in advance.

  • In Canada the phone is also known as G935W

  • Does it support nano-uim card? or is it just nano sim? I would like to know about the details of CDMA part to know what frequencies are supported. Also does it support Evdo rev-B, rev-A in addition to 4G LTE? please enlighten me.

  • apparently, yes. The phone's screen works underwater. Only in fresh water to 1.5 metres for half an hour tough. I am sure it could last over 48 hours but samsung havent guaranteed it.

  • best phone ever!!!

  • According to me this mobile is Excellient

  • my opinion it best phone

  • Please update the FM Radio to YES. I am using FM radio (not the internet radio) on my T Mobile S7 edge. Anyone can install Next radio, which is a signal based radio to use the FM radio. T Mobile version didnt come with the default Sammy FM Radio App

  • Gorilla Glass 4 is scratch resistant. It's not crack resistant. If you want crack resistant, get poly-carbonate - which is not scratch resistant.

  • T-Mobile just released a software update that allows users to use the FM radio!! Which it makes sense since they have unlimited data for music streaming services, so is no longer a bussines idea to remove the Radio access like other carries so the customers pay for more data while using Pandora or Spotify.. Cheers T-Mobile

  • Corning Gorilla Glass 4 is worthless. My new Galaxy S7 Edge screen cracked within 10 days of buying it BY SETTING IT LIGHTLY ON MY COFFEE TABLE FROM 3 INCHES UP. How can an $800 phone not handle that? Ridiculous.

  • Rooting is like getting administrator rights for your phone. If your phone is rooted your warranty will be ceased so go and replace it asap.

  • Hello all, I have problem with my S7 edge as I face screen hanging and this problem solved after self restart (P.S. this problem occurred many time)

  • DEAR SAMSUNG, I hope you bring back the IR blaster in the future Galaxy flagship models! I've been a Samsung user since the SL and I've used each phone until it died. I love the capabilities of Samsung compared to Apple! Namely the NFC, IR blaster, and the LED notifications. I'm not a techie girl but I find the IR useful for controlling all devices in my room! The TV remote is always missing and it's difficult to find which remote is for which TV/speaker/HD player/DVD player/Bluray player etc... Please bring back the IR blaster!!!

  • I was ready to go back to samsung from 5s. But alas, no radio. You'll tell me that why would it be an issue since iphone has no radio. One of the reason I can't ditch my s2 was the radio. I was hoping to I will have this feature in s7. Can't go to Nexus either. I'm boycotting Nexus because they chose a chinese company.

  • its a lot of app with radio but you need mobile data/wifi to use it...so it sucks

  • Carrier division multiple access - which is latest technology in networking

  • Is there not an app to use if you want to listen to the radio? Like simple radio?

  • code division multiple access

  • i bought s7 edge from a store and when I install the osn app, it says it cannot be use because the phone is rooted. then I called Samsung , they said its also rooted. may I ask what does it mean by rotted and why is it rooted, I just bought it and I didn't do anything with it yet.

  • it's possible change this S7 for one S6? Thanks

  • can I use it under water to take pictures

  • plz fm radio addedd

  • is the s7 edge is oing to come out with more than 32 GB

  • Yes you can use both SIM card cdma and gsm.

  • The phone will work on both. With CDMA you will be able to use all features, on GSM you will lose some of the features like 4g,you will only be able to get 3g. This is only if you have a CDMA carrier like Sprint and Verizon.

  • Your answer is not correct. Sim cards are always used. The phone number is attached to the sim card. That's why you can switch your sim card and install in any phone you want as long as its a cdma account like verizon. The difference is you can only use with the CDMA carrier on 4g.You can still use with any other carrier even GSM but only on 3g and if the phone is unlocked which they are.

  • it's a techonology that doesn't uses a sim card. A phone# is attached to the Serial Number of the phone, not to the SIM card because it doesn't use.

  • what is cdma?

  • I want Samsung galaxy s7 edge which compatible with CDMA/GSM

  • Iloveu s7

  • No smart peel remote !! no FM Radio !! Damn it

  • at least they say so:

  • That's weird. You are showing under, "Memory", that the U.S. Cellular model, G935R has only got 3GB of RAM. Is that correct?

  • not even close....

  • 720p@240fps, finally!

  • You can get these specs on Asus Zenfone 2 and Zoom. With a cheaper price. So guys don't base your phone on brand name. Base it on great specs with great price.

  • So NA versions won't get dual-sim? Why is this labeled CDMA edition though?

  • Badass!
