how is everyone liking their S7 right now?

- I find that i am able to accidentally trigger the Back or Multi Window beside the Menu button more often than when I was using my OnePlus.
- Not impressed by the speaker performance on this vs OnePlus.
- Might be a setting thing but screen is sensitive and I get "pop up not supported" or cannot multi window? Anybody know how to turn it off?

Speaker is on the bottom like an iPhone, but apparently it's nothing to brag about

Your mistake was pre-ordering at a dealer.

So the speaker..... I haven't upgraded my phone since my Nexus 5. How does the speaker compare to that

My Nexus speaker is pretty poor in my opinion so I doubt it can't be worst right?

People say the speaker isn't as loud because of the added waterproofing.

That makes a lot of sense. It's hard enough to fit a decent speaker into the bottom of such a thin phone. Now on top of that, they have to make it waterproof.

We threw my GF's IP4 in a lifeproof case and that made it miserable to use. Poor audio quality and mic reception.

I wonder how the call quality and microphone will suffer due to this waterproofing?

Damb... just found out from my corporate dealer that I won't be getting a VR headset even though I pre-ordered since I have a corporate account.

How's the VR ? Did the pre-order phones come with VR games?

no, the VR games offer is only in the states as far as I know because I asked about it in store and online through Samsung site but the reps don't seem to know anything about it. I think instead of the 6 games we got the 128 gb memory card but oddly enough it wasn't mentioned during the pre-order we'd be getting a memory card?

Anyone know where/if I can get a warranty for the S7 Edge that covers damage from drops, etc.

I bought it outright from the Samsung Store and I'm pretty sure they don't offer warranties for accidental damage such as a cracked screen etc.

I know there is Samsung Protection Plus available in the U.S. but apparently not in Canada.

I asked Telus (my provider) and the phone must be bought from them in order to purchase their Device Care Plan extended warranty.

Can't. Most is the 90 days insurance for purchases made on your credit card. I think some baller cards have it for 180 days.

I asked the guy on Friday and they said earliest will be the 28th but he seemed skeptical about that release date. I'm hoping it will be sooner, since I got my Spigen case looks odd sitting unused on my desk

The Samsung store employee told me the silver and gold edge will be released on the 22nd of this month. I pre ordered the silver so Tuesday couldn't come fast enough.

Anyone going to buy an Otterbox case for their S7 or S7 Edge?

I got a $60 gift card to Otterbox.com that I won from a recent Samsung event. It's valid 3/20/16 to 6/30/16 and it's usable towards the S7 or S7 Edge.

I'll sell it for $30 as I don't use a S7 nor are Otterboxes my style.
