Like I once said in a previous regarding samsung, the company itself is just clueless. First they took off memory card slot in galaxy S6 series, they almost hit the bottom pit with that silly mistake. Peole complained and the re-introduced it in S7 series as if it were some nice improvement, the went unto the NOTE flagship and made it curved screen,I looked at it and it was just an S7 edge with a stylus, bad enough they didn't test the device before pushing it into the market it became an explosive flaship. Now they wanna take off home button and dive into untrasonic scanner, trust me they are goin to hit bottom pit again with this unreasonable changes.

Samsung is done with the Home Key...
Huawei has the home key now...
and that's how many of us wanted... A Samsung without HomeKey and a Huawei with a HomeKey...
I will personally go for Huawei as their flagships come with a 2 yrs warranty... and doesn't explode :)

Samsung should keep the home button, improve the camera post processing as it's disgusting and fake now, give us back removable battery while keeping metal backplate, bring back IR blaster, and they'll continue selling a lot.
I buy Samsung S series phones because of their size (5.1 in'), home button back/recents key outside of screen, and because of the software. Their software is really nice (Except for phone app) and I really like the Samsung store and its freebies and Kids mode for my daughter.
Unfortunately they're messing up big time by removing home button, IR blaster, and headphone jack.

I prefer no chin over no forehead, because without the chin, it's easier to reach the top of the screen with your thumb. No forehead doesn't improve the usability at all in that regard.

Good choice if they keep the current dimensions and just eliminate the bezels and home button.

No chin, looks weird.
No forehead, looks weird.
No chin and forehead, looks better.

Nice way to hype up a release after the Note 7 fiasco, sammy, each week a new rumor comes out about each of the phone's components, what a marketing plan... i dont really want to read the news everyday about rumoring wether the next galaxy phone will have bezzels or wont have an audio jack, who gives a shit really?

So iphone 2017 features would be pre-copied. Good. Sammy might have paid those leaksters enough to get iphone plans. Anyways, its good to have two phones from different ecosystems with same hardware launched together, almost.
