I bought my Samsung S7 in 2017 just after S8 was released. I just upgraded it to S22+ not because it is not working anymore but because I felt the need for an upgrade. Thus, I've been using it for almost 7 years and it is still working fine. Its camera is much better when compared to some A-series.
Only main issue that I was having is its battery life. It would last max 14 Hours and it was slow sometimes. Also, its internal memory was getting just full because, nowadays, many apps take lots of space and cannot be transferred to external storage.
Overall, it is still very usable and durable. I even once took pictures with it under water. I just waited for it to dry and before charging.
It is one of the best phones I owned and captured lot of memories with it. Very good camera, very responsive, external storage and durable. It made me a fan of Samsung S-series. Despite my recent upgrade to S22+, there are certain intelligent things that I miss in my S7. Those who migrated from S7 toS 22+ or maybe earlier/recent S-series would know.

I just opened my galaxy S7 box for the first time. Bought in 2016, Opened 2023. Love the "throwback" to a simpler phone. LMK if anyone would like to buy it. All I have done so far is update apps and system.

I have to replace S7as battery life has deteriorated and even a "new Genuine Samsung " battery from a shop drains in a few hours when using a walking App. I dare not go out without a battery pack. Sent to Samsung but will only replace battery if I get new back & front which will total over £300+ I paid new £375 at JL!
Like you all other phones are so big, except the latest S22 which is only 3mm longer. But cant justify over £800!!!

Strangely bottom half screen has become black and all DIY solutions such as pressing volume button down + power button, pressing all button simultaneously, putting phone in safe mode not working. Only giving little heat to phone was working but only for few minutes. Anybody found any solution????

I have the Samsung S7 since 2017. Still works great but as it gets older I would like to hear from you an alternative of this phone for 2023. I love the size, the weight and the 2k screen and I don't want to go for a bigger phone. In your personal opinion what phone could replace my Samsung S7 ?
