No official article, just tweets. But looks like the screen is different too.

This is ridiculous. I will happily return the phone and buy from somewhere else. No need for this. And I can't believe Samsung still let's Verizon pull crap like this

Thanks for the link. Personally, I'm not going to worry about it. Does it suck yea. Am I going to return my phone or or leave Verizon? *sign* No....

My screen seems fine. I'm it sure what all was removed, but i really don't see a point in it

No Samsung cloud either, unless I'm overlooking it.

Just gotta wait for that sweet, sweet N930U version to come out.

From what I have seen so far as well is the Verizon model is the only one that still has the old settings layout and not the new one like in all the advertisements.

Maybe we can get the apk unless root is required. I was really looking forward to this feature.

What does this mean in terms of usability? What actual features are removed? Can we still tailor the battery saving stuff?

I tried every work around I know of. It seems it's not just hidden, but in fact missing. Hope we can recover it from a different model...

That's not always the cure. The newer unlocked s7 versions are still on a May software version with not 1 update since its June 30 release. I had one and sold it.

Does anyone know if its working on the TMO model? I'll check out their forums. Has Samsung really initiated it out of the box? Their website is vague but mentions Note 7 although I read somewhere an update will include it.

I figured the August security update might include it but that was a no go. This is bull****
