Would it look bad on a regular S7?

I got an otterbox style case included when I got my s7 in March. If I find it you can have it if you like?

You won't. Even on adverts the like new ones are more than €440.
Go by the old adage if it's too good to be true then it normally is.

John_Mc · 23-08-2017 02:32PM

They're €570 brand new from Komplett but that's €462 ex. Vat.

Cmar-Ireland · 23-08-2017 02:41PM

470ish is the best price I can find on Amazon for a new sim free. I was thinking 440 sounded a bit low.

rizzee · 24-08-2017 07:47PM

Look on the adverts shops, I got a brand new one albeit was a Samsung replacement for 380 about 4 months ago.

On what grounds do you say this?
I can tell you that you are mistaken my friend.
And I feel like I need to correct this misinformation.

Cheapest brand new recently had been €419.99 for the S7 edge.
Nothing sinister about it either, sold by and dispatched by Amazon.
Look and you shall find.. Although you'll need to use camel price watch

440 is actually a little high even now!
Price for the S7 Edge has been as low as €419.99.. See my post above.

Is it worth it at that price?

Been using my HTC lately so the S7 was just sitting around on WiFi. Battery lasted 4 days 20 hours according to the stats! So the battery life is phenomenal once you don't use your phone at all haha.

I don't think it is available in Ireland yet. I use Android pay.

I blasted it with a hairdryer for about 3 minutes and it was fine.

markc1184 · 18-10-2017 10:37AM

Hi. I had something strange happen my phone this morning while it was charging. It was fast charging and going up as normal, then when it got to 97% it started draining the battery. As it drained the phone froze and then the screen went snowy. I have attached a pic. Has anyone seen this happen on their S7E before or have an explanation for it. Thanks.

flangemeistro · 24-10-2017 03:31PM

Hey guys been offered to swap my S7 edge for a pixel XL first Gen.

Anyone with any experience of both phones could advise me please.

I'm a bit reluctant mainly because of the non expandable 32gb but my last three phones have been Samsung's so really looking for a change.

Mr E · 25-10-2017 10:03PM

Oreo coming at the start of 2018 to Samsung devices. Devices TBC.

Downloaded Oreo to my Nexus 9 tablet yesterday and my wife got it on her Nexus 5X phone, dont see much difference yet, havent had time to play around with it yet.

refusetolose · 16-11-2017 09:25PM

just got a sofware update for the s7 edge,450 mb or thereabouts

Mc Love · 16-11-2017 11:02PM

Anyone notice the battery not lasting as long as before the update? I used to be able to get to 15 hours before it would even hit 30% now it's more like 12 hours and its in the teens.
