I think the winner in terms of innovation is LG G5 in Comparison to Samsung s7 and s7 edge.

^^The S7 edge is what I am going to get, when it gets released. It will probably be dam near impossible to get the first month. I like to save up for a few months before the release so I can just pay it off in cash. Anyways, that is going to be a hot phone and a solid upgrade from my current I Phone 5 C or my previous Samsung Galaxy S3. I cannot wait for that one to come out bro. The Note is just too big for me and I really have no use for that pen.

Very nice! I might get it in the summer time so I can pay it all off at once plus I still need to save up for a PS4. I'll get that by March and I can save up the money and get it then. Worst case is I can hold onto my 5C for another year so I can get two things I want. I can get a PS4 and get a new notebook. Plus, it is only going to get better next year and it still works.

I think I will hold off on the notebook and get the S7 but it will during the Summer. I can get my PS4 first, then my phone and after that a notebook(probably a Dell XPS nothing crazy). I love this phone and if I really fall in love with the next gen phone, I can always sell it and get some of my money back. It's time for a phone upgrade but I would need to wait until Summer time. No problem this phone can hold until then.

@Pooya jan, that is why I wait at least 3 years before I upgrade my phone. I am on an old S3 btw so it is time for an upgrade. Year to year this is what you should expect on improvements: a slightly bigger screen, better battery, slightly faster CPU and they will improve on the camera (ie mega pixels). You will not see DRASTIC chances year to year and even year to every other year. They advertise and make you think that you need the upgrade every year or your phone is obsolete so people would buy them. I think though it is TIME for an upgrade my old S3 crapped out and my Iphone 5 C will probably MAXIMUM last another year. I am going to need to wait until the summer before I get it because I like to just pay for the phone up front. Now if you want to do that then you are going to need to save about $800 so it is not cheap!

I pre-ordered S7 Edge, having said that, my current phone is Note 3, so kina old, if not, i would NOT upgrade, Honestly I think phones are almost becoming the same year after year.
I still have my S4 so going from S4 to S7. My S4 still running strong, I just replaced the battery few months ago..

Up to a year ago I had my S3 and that was still running. Right now I am using my moms Iphone 5C as a back up and I think I am going to get the S7 edge in the summer. I don't know how long this phone will last but the S3 and S4 phones could take a beating.
