    RC255, 15 May 2016Who mentioned the HTC 10 having a Snapdragon 801? I never. ... moreFor the last time, you mentioned battery life as a con for the s7 but not the g5 and the HTC 10. Why? Which review made you say that?

    While the mi 5 has decent battery, it doesn't even have a 2k display like the other flagships offered in the West.

    And no, I only criticised your English because your wrongly tried to criticise my English. By pretending that all comments are somehow opinions. Whenever anyone tries to correct you, you just pretend your lies are 'opinions'. But I'm seriously waiting for you to tell me which review told you the s7 has worse battery than the g5 and the HTC 10, or for you to admit you just don't like Samsung.

      Ditched my iPhone 6s plus a couple of weeks back and was looking for a good phone to buy...am not a brand loyalist but I've always been with apple...so I checked out some phone loved the HTC 10 but it didn't give me enough reason to buy...don't like the LG g5 design...then I stumbled on the s7 edge...OMG
      bought it last week,it's beyond words...the display simply has no match,it's fast, water proof,and I get almost 8hr sot. ..that's amazing if you ask me...got the Samsung halaxy 7 edge and haven't looked back,stuck on Samsung

          Gibby, 15 May 2016The Note 6 will be available by then Good luck holding out... moreI don't blame you, I'm awfully crumbly when i go to Best Buy to play with the S7 Edge! I'm super excited about the Note 6. I must be strong!

            they all have at least one big flaw. neither of them deserve the best title. Sammy no 64GB option in 2016 which for someone like me who has 2 simcards is a deal breaker. HTC no Dual sim variant (at least not available in any market now), Sony is late to the game and doesnt know what its doing, Xiaomi breaks like a granny cracker bc of lacking second frame inside (search youtube), LG G5 looks horrible and is not built well,

              AnonD-196881, 15 May 2016many friends told exynos has higher score in benchmark.... ... morehmm i was under the impression that octa core has 2 sets of 4 cores each, one for heavy lifting, one for running in background in standby, this way battery is better optimized

                S7 edge hands down. Best at almost everything with 0 compromises.. the lg g5 is good yet no water ressistance and looks like hand soap..
                The htc 10 is overpriced and has a horrible battery. Huawei are great but performance wise they are not there yet. The xiaomi is my second pick if i can find it.. sony can just sink with bkackbery.

                  If you see anything from him just ignore it. It's not worth your time.

                    Love towards a brand or product really make people blind and ever worse, disrespectful. If you like Samsung, go buy Samsung and leave the rest who dislike Samsung alone.

                      This is supposed to be an area where people can express their phone preferences but people like you stop them. Your narrow mind doesn't seem to be capable of allowing people to have choice, they must go Samsung and see what you see or they're all wrong. I have read many reviews and user-reviews that show the S7 has not got a better battery life than 'any 2016 flagship'. In everyday user reviews the Mi5 wins by a margin. On this site, their test does reveal that the S7 has ONE OF the best battery life results, in a closed test situation and not everyday actuality.
                      You can't win a debate/discussion/argument about the phones so you talk about your failed understanding of the English language, you're the only one ignorant enough to troll and react the way you do to a misunderstanding/unhappiness with my English.
                      You're a Samsung fanboy and that's all.

                          many friends told exynos has higher score in benchmark.... yes because new exynos has 8cores but SD820 just 4cores. 8cores are used when you open lots of apps.also SD820 can handle same number but exunos does better because more core.but in single app usage or opening ender 4-5 apps SD820 appears better.also SD820 has very better GPU. and many friends like Huawei and .... yes maybe Huawei is good choice especially in cost ratio but I not recommend it for long time.after many months Huawei has dropped quality.we can't compare grade A phones with grade B. Samsung,htc,lg,sony and.... are grade A(especially htc,motorola,iphone,BB and lumia flagships). please don't compare Huawei,xiaomi or Lenovo with Samsung,lg , htc or .....
                          my second job is hardware/software repairman,huawei board and most board ic are covered with glow and really hard to repair....so best phone or good phones would have many advantage.repair(hardware or software),both camera,battery,user interface or UI, screen and updates support and many new technology like IP or QI or .....

                            Xperia x performance is nice but it doesn't seem like a flagship as it lacks some features

                                  I couldn't do it! I crumbled when I saw the S7 Edge.
                                  Looks like a perfect black pebble on my worktop :)
                                  So many good phones this year though. Much better selection than last year :)

                                    HTC at least gives you several months (one full year, some times) to enjoy your phone and making you feel for a long time you do have the latest and best product of a brand.

                                    Can't think on Samsung owners strategy to avoid feeling sad each time they invest hundreds of dollars on a phone and in just a few months, the enhanced version of their just-purchased device is launched, leaving aside their recent acquisition.

                                    Although in this respect, Sony is doing a similar job than Samsung, as within the last year, several, several Xperias have been launched, flooding the market and also GMSArena pages that show Sony phones/

I have the P8 Max and I love it; the size, screen, battery and the EMUI is a joy to use. The only con is lack of 4g LTE (I'm on AT&T and the P8 series doesn't support these bands). I admit that with so many great phones being released this year it's hard to pick just one. I'm going to try and hold out until December before making my choice ... wish me luck on that ;-)
