Is the Samsung Galaxy S7 as good-looking as you are (despite your receding hairline, adult-onset acne, and massive weight gain)? Rate this thread to express whether you think the Samsung Galaxy S7 is attractive. A higher rating indicates that you would even go as far to say that the Samsung Galaxy S7 is a beautiful phone.

Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!

Going from a Nexus 6P to this, sort of I am still carrying both right now.. work and personal but I love the look and feel of this phone.. So much more manageable and really the screen size difference is not big enough for me to care.

I traded in a Note 4 for this (which I loved) and I'm thrilled with the smaller size. It's the perfect middle ground for me - not too big for my pockets. As a tall guy, I could carry the Note 4 just fine in my pocket and in my hand it was great, but I absolutely love the downsized goodness that is the S7. My note was always rubbing holes in my pants pockets because it's just slightly too big.

Came from the Note 4 as well. For a 5'0" tall, 100-pound girl like me the Note 4 was seriously huge!! I loved it to bits but it came to the point where it was impractical to carry and hold. I love the size of the S7 and generally the device looks so sleek and classy! I guess what the Note 4 lacked was that "premium feel" devices released afterwards have.

honestly, I paid for the ad free version of the couple apps and games I use a lot, I have ad block plus for the samsung browser which is arguably as good as or better than chrome. So for me, that takes care of the second biggest reason I root. The top reason, is bloatware and with gatesjunior's debloater, I've blocked all the apps I can't uninstall and the phone runs great. I personally have really no need for root at this point. After doing these things this is hands down the best device I've had yet.

I actually just mentioned this in another thread. I have the Gold Platinum Galaxy S7 (not Edge). It is THE sexiest phone I have ever owned. Ever. I was very leery about buying it since it can't be rooted and I've rooted every single Android phone since the Droid, rocking Android 2.0.1, which I bought the day it was released. Though root didn't exist, and I had no idea what root even was for probably a couple months. Basically I screwed with the phone and set everything up that could be possibly customized on my own. At which point I was bored at work and discovered root while looking up what else could be customized that I didn't discover on my own playing with the phone. I was one of the 2% on VZW who had their 3G data throttled back by 90%. So I was also one of the first with 4G, getting a Thunderbolt, rather than waiting for the Bionic (luckily because that was delayed for so long, I was almost due for a new upgrade). But back to the point from my ADDetour, I barely mind not having root. I do wish I could customize the statusbar icons/text/clock colors/fonts. But otherwise loving marshmallow. And I've always liked touchwiz. And love this one. But that's only half of it. This is the first time I can say in terms of hardware that Android crushes Apple. It is one drop dead sexy phone. Though damn near every flagship Android looks better than the iPhone now. I even owned a few iPhones over the years, trying to accept them because I've always thought they were great devices, but none lasted more than a couple weeks before I sold em off and got a new Android. Even though I thought it looked better physically, and I always jailbroke them and tried to make myself like it, I always came right back to Android. As I said in my thread about getting a case for it. I want as little as possible. I have always just slapped a case on my Androids without a second thought. But I don't wanna cover this beauty up. On a scale of 1-10, I give it an 11. I just couldn't be happier with this phone. Well, once somebody finds the exploit to root it. But as a stock device. Never had one like this
