So the S7 Edge just announced
5.5" - Restyled S6 Edge with 2.5D glass all sides.
Water resistant - 3600 Mah Battery - Kickass Exynos 8800 performance
MICROsd - Kickass new camera - and marshmallow of course.
I dont mind giving away those 0.2" inches although i just bought the phone a month ago.
I am going to keep using my S6 edge + because it's too early to upgrade to S7 although it had returned some great features for some people like Micro SD, Water Resistant, and bigger battery capacity (3600mAh). For those who eagerly wants those feature, then you can upgrade to S7. I better keep myself until they release the next flagship in August which surely be Samsung Galaxy Note 6 or maybe together with Samsung Galaxy S7 edge +. If Samsung give us a 4000 mAh battery, then I am going to be really happy..
The battery in S7 is 3600 mAh which is 20% larger than S6 edge + which had 3000 mAh. However, with Fast Charging technology, charging up to 20% is just take about 15 mins then I am able to live it.
Micro SD up to 200 GB. It is optional for some people.. I don't save a lot of media (music, video) in my phone and I still have 70% storage capacity left in my 64 GB so it doesn't bother me a lot. However, it is a huge improvement for some people because many users complaining about the lost of micro SD slot in 2015 flagship.. The rest is up to you..
Dust & Water Resistant is also optional. My previous device was Galaxy S5 which have same features. However, I was rarely got my device wet because most of time I was inside a clean room. For those who brings their smartphone to wet environment, the return of this feature is a giant leap.. Keep in mind that the water resistant is different than water proof and I have just saw that the charging port in S7 didn't have a protector like in S5. I wonder how Samsung deal with it if the port is damaged with water and got corrosive, will it still work perfectly?
It is my opinion about S6 edge + and S7 edge.. You guys are able to decide based on your needs..
Thats a very reasonable and logical comparison, well done sir.
Its still too early to judge I agree. Especially since we need further in depth review of the new Exynos and the new SD820. I hope its not another flop for Qualcomm.
And you are correct again, its much wiser to wait for August.
There are several reasons why i'm gonna skip the Galaxy S7 edge, because i do have the Galaxy S6 edge+ that is a very nice phone to begin with.
Now, there are some few reasons why i feel that the Galaxy S7 edge are a downgrade in from the Galaxy S6 edge+.
1. The screen is 5.5 inch on the Galaxy S7 edge over 5.7 inch on the Galaxy S6 edge+.
2. The new 12 MP camera takes pictures in the 4:3 ratio. You have to take the camera all the way down to 9.1 MP before you can take a picture in the 16:9 ratio. So i'll think i will keep my 16 MP 16:9 ratio camera on my Galaxy S6 edge+ over that
That's the only downsides i can find with the Galaxy S7 edge over the Galaxy S6 edge+ so far.
But yeah, i wont upgrade my phone before the Galaxy S8 edge+ comes out (if it comes out ofc). If not i will be going for the Galaxy Note 7 that will come out later in 2017.

agree and will also keep my edge+
I'm gonna trade it in also. for me this phone is a little uncomfortable to hold cuz of the flat back. anytime a manufacturer can shave a few mm from the width, yet retain top performance that's a win in my book. in this case, they managed not only to do that but also make it more ergonomic and with a better battery. so yea, I'm trading mine in. that's the beauty of T-mobile jod plan anyways.
Not trading mine in and not just because my phone is only 2 months old.
I love my edge plus and the new features on the 7 are better they aren't a big enough deal for me to change my already great phone and lose lot of money in the process.
I also like 16x9 16mp photos and bigger screen.
I voted no because my upgrade mobile will be the note 6.
I came from note 4 and I am used to the spen. I love my s6 edge+, but If I change this incredible mobile, it would be a Note 6
i love to upgrade to galaxy S7 edge+ Plus becuase of water proof and bigger battery and SD slot. plus you get a free Gear VR if you pre-order. and you get 3 days early then everyone else.
but i have a 2 years contract and i have to wait after 2 years when my contract is finished. by then Note 7 will be out.
I would consider trading my s6 edge plus even though its minor upgrade.
Hoping that a Note 6 will appear this year in Europe! Would trade one for that one. Would love to have a Note 5 but since it's not available in Europe i got the Edge+
16/9, 16mp photos! That's all I shoot in, I can't stand 4/3
So. I'll keep my 6 edge+ until the Note 6 later this year (I do miss the stylus!) Or the S8 next year.
And I'm getting the G5 whatever the case - it intrigues me! I want the robot, and I want to fly a drone....
And that VR headset.

Very very minor things done on this device. Absolutely nothing worth upgrading for as there is nothing new - Same can be said for the last 3 generations of mobiles from every manufacturer.
They could put 3 8 core chips in the S7 and you wouldn't notice the difference over the S6 edge +. Hell, my standard 3 year old note 3 is almost on par with my S6 edge +, how much better can it honestly get? It's just a phone and the technology inside has peaked for now. Nothing grounding breaking being done, just minor resolution bump which is pointless given your eye can't physically see a difference and a minor camera bump which again is pointless, they're never going to replace DSLR's or mirrorless systems, they've just nice 'point and shoot' sensors.
Phones have peaked people - save your money and stick with what you've got till something 'new' comes out. Too many people on here upgrading just to say they have the latest. More money than sense!
If we are keep chasing the update, it will end up in regret for every 6 months.. Same ecosystem between Samsung, Apple, LG, etc.. They are going to keep inovate somehing new.. The best moment to upgrade the high end smartphone is 2 years IMO.. Talk about S6 edge+, if we place it with S7 edge side by side, there is a very minor difference in terms of performance.. Everything have their pros and cons, as long as it is worth to keep, then use it.. Personally, I am really satisfied with my S6 edge+ performance..
I will be selling and moving to the LG G5

hahahaha...I'm thinking of that move also
I was very tempted to upgrade! The biggest reason is the battery capacity and overall efficiency of processor whilst being put off because of the -0.2 inches. In addition to this I thought the screen quality would be a big improvement as was the case with the Note 5 and GS6 EDGE+ over the standard GS6/GS6 EDGE.
Upon my visit the Carphone Warehouse in the UK yesterday I saw the GS7 EDGE in person and can confirm that the screen is very marginally brighter and has marginally better contrast however we are talking about something extremely difficult to perceive (maybe 10% or less difference). Other than that I can confirm that personally I like the design and more importantly size of the S6 EDGE+ over that of the GS7 EDGE (don't get me wrong the GS7 EDGE is a beautiful phone still).
I may very well upgrade however it won't be until Samsung has confirmed that there is no successor to the S6 EDGE+ in August. I am pleased I got to see the device in person otherwise I would have been dreading not having waited for the GS7 EDGE which I no longer do.
Hope this helps others.

I totally agree with you 100% I do... but upgrading to the latest phone no matter how small the change, is a total addiction for me and it's so got a hold of me! I never buy anything second hand or a last gen model. I even hate that here in the UK the licence plate on cars shows the age of the car. My car now tells people it's 2yrs old and even though it looks pristine and only 10000 miles on the clock, it really irks me that it is no longer the latest and greatest.
I love my S6 edge+ but as soon as the S7 was announced I realised I was no longer owning the latest Samsung phone. It saddened me and I know that's pathetic!

Lol, but you're anti Apple? Yet your last sentence is what keeps Apple in business, no change at all, but HAVE to have it, regardless.
Based on my experience with cars, older ones are much better than newer, too much pointless tech built into newer cars that goes wrong (and it DOES go wrong) I have a heavily modified 2002 Volvo S40 T4 with around 370bhp that's now on 186,000 miles and runs like new - I'd like to see any of Volvos newer cars do that!
Newer isn't always better and most of the time, isn't worth it.
But each to their own
So yes, just roumors, but it is supposed to come in 5.1 inch and 5.5 inch. And anything close to a Note supposedly won't be released next year.
Well, samsung, get your act together. EVERYONE is doing a 5.5 by now. I could possibly live without a stylus but why downsize? I can't use my Note 4 for another 2 years. If they don't get their act together in a year, I will be forced to switch to another manufacturer (and tempted to if in February s8 "pro" doesn't deliver). And in this case I am even more glad I got rid of the Note 7 because if they plan to abolish anything like the Note, they will have no further advantage out there, ever. If N 4 is to be my last Note with nothing further to buy from them in the future...better to be rid of the concept now than later and find a replacement.
Come on Samsung!!! Do you WANT to bury yourself?
...and you believe unsubstantiated rumours? OK then....
Samsung's business model has been two flagships each each in major territories since 2011, including 2015 when Europe still got the S6 Edge+
I'd still expect a S8 / S8 Edge in Q1 and something bigger in Q3. Remember the press are reaching here as Samsung have said nothing.

Is it wise for you to get so worked up about rumours? Only Samsung know their future policy and why would anyone assume they will change direction?
In as far as the Note 7 and future Note range, Samsung need time, they need time to get things right.
You ask Samsung to "Get your act together", Have you any proof they are not doing so? The media have done enough damage to Samsung and with respect all you are doing is adding to the hysteria with posts like that.
Ryland
Samsung should come out with a line called...Samsung Fire...instead of a bundle pack they should just hand out fire extinguisher's with the phone.
No, no proof, I said it is roumers, I named the post roumors, but since I have no way to reach Samsung and since some people say there are all sorts of moles, spys and whatnot here, I hope it gets to Samsung somehow that there is a reason they had so many faithful Note customers and to please not go changing it. Sorry if I care about what happens next. I do. I don't want them to mess up everything. This is a forum, a place to share opinions and yes, even roumors. I don't see how I did anything wrong here.

Samsung Galaxy S8 - release date & specs - rumors
Your mistaken rumours with facts. I'm sure Samsung will stick to their product roadmap, as their have been indications they are not bringing the S8 forward and it will debut in Q1 (late February).
I'd expect things next year to broadly be something like this...
Feb / March 2017
S8 / S8 Edge / S8 Pro
Eynos 8995 / SD 821 (or 830 if announced by Qualcomm soon)
6GB RAM
32GB / 64GB on-board storage
5.2 or 5.2-inch and 5.5-inch options at either 1440p or 2160p SAMOLED
IRIS scanner
IP68 waterproofing
SD card expansion (with UFS 2.0 support)
Secure Folder
I'd expect the larger screened phone coming in Q3 to maintain a 5.7-inch screen or larger (and hopefully still be called Note8 (see how that's different to Note 8.0 before anyone counters...).

To add on.. i guess the rom will be slightly higher. Prob baseline will still be 32GB. Follow by 64, 128, 256. With expandable memory of course. And probably do away 3.5mm jack?

I doubt Samsung will go for more than a 64GB variant (unless they drop 32GB and do offer 128GB), simply as they'll need headroom for the larger model later in the year. Anyway, with SD expansion, this is moot really.
As for dropping the 3.5mm jack, I'd hope not - it's not really reflected well on Apple and I'd hope Samsung realise they don't need to do the same.

Hi,
I am on the fence on buying Galaxy Note 10 plus, as I keep reading articles about the all the new redesigned Galaxy S11 coming in just 5-6 months. Samsung Galaxy S 11 is also being named as Samsung's 'New Beginning'.
Since I am a iPhone X user, but I am ready to switch to android, mainly to Note 10 plus, because of it's gorgeous 6.8" display and S pen.
So, will Galaxy S11 get rid of the hole punch design and come with full screen display? Will it also have 90 hertz refresh rate display? Assuming it will have all these display upgrades, it will be further transferred to the Note 11.
Should I wait for another year for the Note 11 for better screen?
Really confused
Nobody knows what features S11 or the N11 will have, but they'll clearly be better. There will always be a better phone coming out down the pipe, the phone you want now will always be old news months from now. Nobody can tell you wtf makes sense or not, only you can answer that.

I advice you to fully know and understand the s pen and all it is capable of doing, you will love it, or simply not, more to it, anyone buying a note series device should do it just because the s pen, if for the slightest reason the s pen is not that all great for you, do not buy a note series device, get a S series one

I would certainly wait in your case unless your phone is just falling to pieces. From rumors I have read about they next galaxy may even have a camera that is 10xs more powerful than the current ones. If you buy now, in 5 months you will be wishing you could upgrade again. Also, fast charging graphene batteries seem to be just around the corner and could well debut on the next version of galaxy phones. IMO, its worth the wait. At the very least wait for deals during Thanksgiving weekend if you must buy current version of Note 10. In 3 months prices will be at least $200-$300 cheaper than current ones and you'll kick yourself for not having waited and seeing your phone's depreciation.

That is true...there will always be a new phone coming in few months time. That's when I think and get confused of investing 1000$ in it or wait for a better one!
Depends on if you are wanting a new phone NOW. New tech will always come out every 6 months. Waiting due to better tech comes out... That will make you never buy a phone. I personally ordered through Samsung, joined their upgrade program, so I'll get the Note11 and basically have no change in bill. So it's not big deal.
The s-pen is incredible. I love it. I'll never buy an S-series for that reason. The Note is always a more refined S-series anyway.

I like the S-pen and it's added functionality. I would like to use it and give it a try. But my main goal is the best and biggest screen.
My advice try out both the Note 10 and the SGS10 in stores. This will help you figure out, which phone is for you. As everybody I know who have a Note device never use the S-Pen at all.
If you don't need a s-pen then wait. The N10 will have an actual upgraded camera sensor.

The Note10+ pretty much unanimously has the best screen available right now, so I say go for it! You'll fall in love with the s-pen I bet.

Lol, he can just wait forever, you know, the next model will ALWAYS be better
I am currently using Samsung Galaxy S10 plus. Should I go ahead and buy Note 10 + or wait for Samsung fold?
Depends. Do you want the Fold, or do you want the N10+?
I want to upgrade my phone. Only Samsung Note 10 + is available in market which is better than my phone. Samsung fold is a new tech so is it worth waiting for fold price drop or purchase note 10+?
I always advice others this:
The note series is REALLY satisfactory for those who like an apreciate the features the S Pen provides, if the S Pen is not the MOST important feature for you to have, simply get something else , as you put it, the the S10+ or the fold would be good for you
That's like asking "should I get SUV or should I get 2 seater sports car" LOL. Fold won't be available until around 9/27 and should cost around $1800. Note 10+ is available now for around $1100. I already made the decision (as probably a lot of other people here) to buy N10+, because Fold won't have s-pen, which I use all the time and it's a new tech which already showed to be troublesome in the past. I'll wait to see if all problems are fixed and if much larger screen is compelling reason enough. Also hope for price to come down a little. At home and work I have computers, which I prefer to use over the phone no matter screen size and on the go where I use the phone the most (like driving for map guidance/traffic) larger screen may actually be too cumbersome. I can always sell N10+ and buy fold in the future and couple hundred resulting loss shouldn't be major concern, when you're spending $1800 on the phone.
BTW I agree with Winol, if you don't use s-pen much, there are so many other good phones to choose from, it's mind boggling.

The problem is, you're asking us what you should buy, and none of know what features are important to you. Only you know if it's worth it to you.
It's an impossible question to answer anyway since none of us have a Galaxy Fold.
Do some research, watch some YouTube videos, and decide which one interests you the most.
I think you should actually look at the other foldable phones. Huawei's version is actually a lot better in my opinion. Of course I'm not yet considering all their troubles with the US Gov't. But when I compared the 2, I really felt Samsung dropped the ball there.
With regards to new tech, and given the problems the first fold encountered recently, I would actually warn people from buying the Samsung fold. I previously bought the Note 7 which was recalled 2x. And it was such a hassle. I had to set up my phone 2x only to have it recalled. I sold my old phone too so I ended up without a phone. I had to settle with an LG phone at the time and replaced it when the Note 8 came out.
I would not buy first-gen new tech. Foldable devices will be crap the first few go-arounds most likely. Would not want to be a first adopter. The Note line is 9 years old now definitely very mature while the first Fold literally folded so badly they nixed it and are trying again 6 months later. Go with the Note 10+ or a similar device that is not first gen tech.
for me, first generation tech is always a BIG NO.
The 15 year old is dying for the 2000$+ new tech, but i controlled the sucker and got the Note 10+ and satisfied since i have tab s6 for the heavy stuff. best of both words (phones and tablets) and cost less than the fold

Not so fast my friend!
The S-Pen is a big factor to consider. But there are others that you should take into consideration....
The 12GB of RAM is a huge upgrade. If you think the S10+ is fast, the Note10+ is that much faster with 50% more RAM!!!

Most people don't though. That was only on the 1TB model, right?
Still kind of early, but anyone here upgrading form there note 10+ to the note 20? I usually like to keep my phones for 2 years, but the Samsung trade in makes the upgrade appealing. Share your thoughts! who will be upgrading or who will be rocking the note 10+
Here in Italy the value of the note10+ is just 330€ if you trade it in...
I think it's better to sell it privately
There is really nothing on the Note 10+ I find lacking. I think the only reason I could see upgrading would be for 5g, but I expect it to be years yet before that will make sense, even though I live in a large city that is already getting coverage. Even then, current speeds are perfectly fine for my needs, so it would be about coverage.
I will upgrade next year, among other reasons, I find the cam module of the note20 extraordinaily ugly, I hope they correct it for the 21 model

I think the same as you are, and 5G is the only thing that maybe the reason (not sure, the 100-megabyte/Sec I get now is pretty good.) The only thing the make me upgrade devices is the Samsung deal of a trade in. I got my Note10+ (USA) for $485 and returned a S9 so it was a no brainier..
I swapped a 9 for the 10+ as 5G was in my area, no reason to really go to a 20 and to be honest the "discount" you get returning the phone at a year through Samsung is pretty poor, was only about a £100 reduction last year when I returned my Note 9, I got more discount trading in an old S6 I had lying around to get the Note 9 through Samsung. sure it's nice to have the latest phone but you are basically paying 50% of the cost to keep it a year and then have nothing to show for your money.
I probably won`t I have the Note 10+ 5g already with ATT in USA , I originally had the s20 ultra 5g, and i had too many issues with the camera and the Note 20 looks fugly with the camera module. I`ll wait for next year.
I ***** and complain every year, but im all in to upgrade..lol

Yes! Next year processors will have amd graphics, I am eagerly waiting to see them!
I'll probably get the Note 20+ or Ultra edition as the standard is rumoured to only have 60hz & no LTPO...
Honestly I'll probably skip next year's as I don't have faith in first generation AMD graphics, it'll be a first for Samsung devices and I think it'll take a few iterations to iron out any issues.

I somewhat agree with you, but I expect the S21 to be the guinea pig for that matter…
Yeah to me the Galaxy S phones tend to be a test subject as the Note tends to come 6 months later with similar hardware just with the kinks worked out. so by the time the Note 21 comes out they will have had several months of in use testing done by the Galaxy S users to refine it for the Note users.
I def will be upgrading to the note 20. I love my note 10+. There is even a small window I might go for the fold 2.

I will upgrade next year, among other reasons, I find the cam module of the note20 extraordinaily ugly, I hope they correct it for the 21 model

IKR? Always been a fan of the Note, but the S20 and Note 20's camera is just fugly, no other way of saying it. And hell, it's not like it's that big an improvement over the Note 10's camera. Actually, in some cases I've seen, the 10 is wahaaay better. And the 100x times zoom isn't worth that bump - a gimmick that I'd use a few times... maybe.
I love my note 10+ the only real issue i dislike is the lack of headphone jack. Now I know that all smartphones are leaning towards this " trend" and I can buy and adapter, but I realy wish they would have included it
I hope they Not go with the trend !!! The trend is to make round corners phones, that looks like dildo. I Hate that ****! That's why i bougth 10+ 5g (an old phone from august 2019). One of the few with a square screen.
10+ 5g here. If you can imagine that some headphones does not work on my 10+... "does not recognise"... I have Oneodio Headphones Professional Studio Dynamic Stereo DJ. With OnePlus adapter usb type C to 3,5mm jack.
On my OnePlus 7 Pro sound was Awesome! On s20+ 5g (sold) sound horrible, but the headphones workt.
And of course i hope the Greed stops ! And the price will Not be 1500 Euro.
