Emui is good. Not excellent but not Bad too

    So... there's no pro?

    I have Mate 7, but for this price I'd rather go for S7 Edge, as overtime I realised I don't need 6", I'll be just fine with 5.5".

              This is my next phone. I currently own an s7 exynos version, had it for about 6 months, for the people who say samsung dont lag anymore, it stutters like hell it really started to show in the 4-6 month period, i mean it stutters a lot.

              Mate 9 is what i want in a phone.
              Having a 5.9" screen in pretty much the same dimensions as a iphone 7 plus is great. 5.1" on the s7 feels really small.

              Stereo speakers, thats gonna be awesome considering im used to the speaker on the s7 wich is absolutely horrible.

              4000mah battery is great, im a heavy user and my s7 barely gets me through the day, so 4000mah will probably make the cut.

              1080p display dont bother me a thing since i dont use vr so having qhd really just slows the phone down and consumes battery. I would indeed like it to be a amoled screen though.

              And finally EMUI got an app drawer so i dont need to install nova launcher even though i did on my s7.

                                      Unless you buy the over-priced Porsche styled version.
                                      A disappointment personally. Will wait for the next flagship.
