Why bother with a zoom lens if it's just f/2.8 with no OIS?

    Pedro-TheNeighbor, 23 Sep 2016The S Pen is what differentiates from the S series. People ... moreAgreed. The stylus is the reason i got into the note series in the first place. Camera, display, and everything else comes second priority. Maybe except for battery life.

Explosion will be well prevented after the crisis Samsung has just went through ! But the lag is something that seems Samsung can never over come ! That's what really makes me reconsider of buying the note 7 ! I love the nice features it offeres , but none will be useful if the phone start lagging ! Let's hope Samsung can really gets it right soon ~.

        Note7 is the smartphone to beat in 2016. Don't care if the recall hoopla got overblown by Apple shareholders who control the media to help sell more iPhone 7s. Note7 still excels from Apple fans' smear campaign.

        Design
        Cameras
        Display
        Battery Life

        The only advantage 7+ has is that killer feature of 2x optical zoom. But it loses in several photo and video recording comparisons. The audio quality is still in mono and the front cam is too close. Not wide angle to eliminate selfie sticks. The only area V20 seems to excel is audio. If you are paying over $700+, you might as well get the phone that is the best in more areas.

        Both iPhone 7+ and V20 have consistently lost in those key areas. V20 lags behind in display and battery life. Only area Note7 might lose is during speed tests and RAM management. But software is easily correctable with updates and the Note7 replacements supposedly have a software update that improved the speed and smoothness of the early lag.

        Snapdragon or Exynos, the Note7 is still the smartphone to beat in 2016. The S7 edge is a close 2nd. The rest are fighting for 3rd.

            KHL, 18 Sep 2016well after all i believe that when Samsung fix the issue...... moreThere is no excuse for Samsung phones to have the slowest commands response. Samsung Galaxy Tab s2 8.0 is well optimized and doesn't have any of these issues and yet all Samsung smartphone still have millisecond to a second delay in many commands (especially home botton)

              unnonimous, 23 Sep 2016i`m not using fingerprints like ever...i`ve done a few bad ... moreif you afraid to use finger print scanner, why use the eye scanner. don't setup any of them.
              stick to a very long alpha-numeric password.
              the scanners are not a bad idea. its there for who wants to use them. its called having options. no one said the use of them was mandatory.
              you know what is a bad idea....... storing data that could get you in trouble on an internet connected phone.

                AnonD-183089, 23 Sep 2016in some regions note 7 will be back again for sales by the ... moreThe S Pen is what differentiates from the S series. People like us don't care so much for the S8. Same feelings I had for the S3, S4, S5, S6 and S7 - if it doesn't have an S Pen, it's really half of what you're paying for who are used to writing and drawing. Sure, it's a glimpse of what the next Galaxy Note would be, but nothing to be envious about, except when the the S7 came out and had more features than the Note.5.

                The Note7 exchange program has a deadline, from October 1, up to December 31 for my region. Next Note will still be 10 months away.

                  in some regions note 7 will be back again for sales by the end of the year as in Europe by end of November!!! which means 2 months away from S8 release and in my country the replacement program didn't launch yet :( note 7 sales will be affected a lot as many persons will choose to wait for S8 on February 2017!!
                  Read on sammobile that note 7 sales will be 60 % only comparing to Note 5 last year! :(

                          The new Note7 replacements have a software update that made the UI faster, smoother, and improved battery life for the T-Mobile and Verizon (Snapdragon 820) versions. Go on Android Central forums to read about the improved software. The laggy UI is what concerned me more than explosions. Looks the Note7 is back and better than ever!

                            The 60% battery restriction can be lifted to 80% under Device maintenance > Battery > Advanced settings (top right).

                            Reboot will reset it to max 60%.

                                Under battery > advanced settings you can disable this to allow max 80% charge... if you turn off your phone it will default back to max 60% charge.

                                      Samsung needs to improve S models Performance much. Please show as some blast of geekbench score and more speed in openning apps and dont forget gaming performance we wll be glad if all games will run as high as 80fps or above with no lags and major frame drops

                                        AnonD-77443, 23 Sep 2016You don't get a choice with the update... it just happens.I had the choice to update or not... Well, at that moment, I was in a bad spot, and it cancelled the update. The notification just sat there on the cog-wheel settings icon. Prior to this, I had a notification telling about it.

                                        I suspect it has the kill command for the phone once it has reach a certain time. Deadline is about 3 months to exchange to the safe Note7. Oh, thank goodness I'm getting mine next week. Hello, Black Onyx.
