Advantages and Disadvantages Samsung Galaxy Note 7

Advantages of Samsung Galaxy Note 7

• Great performance from either chipset, but this time around there is not a clear lead against other flagships;
• The loudspeaker has improved since the Note5, and now matches the Galaxy S7 edge with a Good rating;
• Great audio quality even with headphones, volume remains high;
• The 12MP camera has a refined interface; the image quality is among the best though photos can look overprocessed if you zoom in; very good selfie camera;
• 4K videos are packed with detail; 1080p @ 60fps videos are smooth, AF issues from the S7 edge have been ironed out.
• Battery life is marginally improved compared to the Note5, but the bigger screen has meant higher power draw compared to the S7 edge; the Exynos model is slightly more efficient than the Snapdragon one;

  

  Advantages and Disadvantages Samsung Galaxy Note 7

• Samsung is moving towards using fewer proprietary apps - they are offering system-wide video and sound enhancements, which would work with any video or music player you download;
• Easily the most beautiful phone by Samsung, feels smaller than its screen size suggests;
• We appreciate the iris scanner, and while the implementation is way better than the one on the Lumia 950 and 950 XL, it still has its quirks and may not replace the fingerprint reader when it comes to usability. ;
• The dual-curved display has great image quality, the curves enable the unique Edge features (panels and feeds), and they don't interfere with the S Pen functionality;
• The Always On Display has been improved and now shows third-party app notifications and then, there is the Screen off memo; AOD does take a toll on battery life, though;
• Plenty of storage out of the box, dual-SIM phones have hybrid slots but with 64GB as base storage you can get by without a microSD card; 

Disadvantages of Samsung Galaxy Note 7

• Iris scanner needs you to hold the phone awkwardly close to your face
• Unless you need the S Pen, the S7 edge offers the same specs for less money
• Hybrid slot means people using the dual-SIM model can't expand the storage (64GB should be enough for most, though)
