Pocket-lint | Chariss Hall

The Samsung Galaxy S7 edge is an excellent smartphone, fusing together wonderful design and performance, with few weaknesses.

The Mirror | Jeff Parsons

It's the best phone (again) that Samsung has made and you can be confident that it'll see you through a two-year contract with very little trouble.

Expert Reviews | Christopher Minasians

For me, I still think the S7 is the better buy. While there's no denying the S7 Edge is a great smartphone, the normal S7 is a more convenient size, it's just as powerful and its battery life is still pretty incredible.

Alphr | Alan Martin, Jonathan Bray

Just like its stablemate, the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge is simply superb. The best recommendation I can think of, however, is that this is the smartphone I would buy if money was no object; I can think of no stronger endorsement than that.

TechRadar | Gareth Beavis

Five stars to Samsung, as the brand iterates perfectly on an already award-winning smartphone, adding a brilliant camera and gorgeous design.

Samsung have smashed it out of the park with the Galaxy S7 edge. Not only is it an incredibly stunning device, but it also has the most incredible specs and powerful creds and the camera is just something else. If money is no object, this is THE phone to buy.

Digital Spy | Luke Johnson

V3 | Matt Farrington-Smith

The Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge is an excellent phone and easily gets my recommendation for those wanting to purchase something this early into 2016. Overall I've been impressed with the Galaxy S7 Edge.

pocketnow | Jaime Rivera

It's only logical for us to tell you that this is the best Galaxy ever, and we'd be right if we just left it in that simple conclusion. All being said, if you're in the market for a new smartphone, the Samsung Galaxy S7 edge is one I'd highly recommend.

Android Authority | Andrew Grush

The Galaxy S7 Edge takes everything we loved about the S6 Edge and infuses it with several coats of polish, creating what is one of the most gorgeous and powerful phones we've ever seen... Bottom-line, the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge might not drastically change the formula started by its predecessor, but it certainly does perfect it.

CNET UK | Jessica Dolcourt

The gorgeous Galaxy S7 Edge makes the best Android phone that much better.

NotebookCheck | Daniel Schmidt

Samsung's Galaxy S7 Edge fuses fast performance, brilliant screen, superb camera and strong battery life in one device

The Verge | Dan Seifert

... the S7 Edge is easily one of the best phones I've ever used, and probably the best Android phone you can buy right now.

Tom's Guide | Cherlynn Low

With a superior camera, better Edge screen functions and a long-lasting battery, the gorgeous, water-resistant Galaxy S7 Edge is Samsung's best phone yet.

Know Your Mobile | Paul Briden

A tremendously pleasing smartphone to use.

AndroidPit | Camilla Rinaldi

While in the S6 Edge will felt there was something missing, the Galaxy S7 Edge is a complete package, a smartphone with a soul.

Phone Scoop | Eric M. Zeman

The S7 Edge has a fantastic screen, provides good voice calls and decent data speeds, and delivers excellent battery life for a handset in this class.

PC Mag | Sascha Segan

The Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge combines state-of-the-art components with a smart, gorgeous design and a big battery, making it a killer Android smartphone... It's the best-crafted, most powerful smartphone on the market, with the biggest battery, and the most cutting-edge components you can get. That's enough to make it our Editors' Choice.

Android Headlines | Nick Sutrich

The Galaxy S7 Edge is absolutely the best phone Samsung has ever made, bar none. Sure there are some issues, but most of these are software ones that'll likely get addressed in some form or another over the next few updates. The only hardware problems per say are the ultra slippery build, which is difficult to get around without a case, and that speaker on the bottom where waterproofing seriously degrades the quality from what it could be.

Mashable | Raymond Wong

The Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge is the hottest smartphone Samsung has ever made. The Galaxy S7 Edge is Samsung's first curved phone that's actually worth paying extra for.

Recombu | Alex Todd

The Edge screen is still the biggest question mark from a usability and functionality standpoint, but it grants Samsung major style points by helping render the Galaxy S7 Edge one of the most (if not the most) beautiful smartphones ever made.

Brighthand | Jamison Cush

The Samsung Galaxy S7 edge is a superior smartphone with market-leading performance, stunning display, knock-out design, and a world-class camera that will make iPhone owners envious. It's expensive though, and some of its unique features are still a work in progress.

TechnoBuffalo | Todd Haselton

The Galaxy S7 Edge is the best Android smartphone on the market. There. I said it.

SlashGear | Chris Davies

Samsung has made a fantastic phone, but there are only really style reasons to opt for this over the Galaxy S7. Not the worst reason in the world, but I can't help but feel like the potential of the Galaxy S7 edge is for so much more.

Neowin | Robbie Khan

Not only is the S7 Edge a beautiful device to look at, it is also beautiful to use with features and performance to match. It is everything the Galaxy S6 should have been and then some. That's not to say it doesn't have its annoyances, because there are a few. But those annoyances are all software based and Samsung can easily fix those with updates.

phoneArena | John V.

If money is no concern to you, or you simply want to stay on the bleeding edge of technology right now, the Samsung Galaxy S7 edge is a noteworthy phone rich in both the experience and performance.

NDTV Gadgets | Jamshed Avari

The S7 Edge offers a kind of thrill and satisfaction that no other company can match as of now... You'll be certain to dazzle your friends by taking incredible pictures at night and in dark places. You also get health monitoring and the Concierge services to show off - things that don't come with just any old phone, at least not yet.

Trusted Reviews | Max Parker

If money is simply no object and you want a phone that looks absolutely stunning, the Galaxy S7 Edge is the phone to choose. It's the culmination of Samsung's impressive rise in the design stakes and it brings back a lot of features that were annoyingly missed out of the S6 and S6 Edge

The Inquirer | Matt Farrington-Smith

For all those who fell in love with the S6 Edge, you will undoubtedly fall for the S7 Edge's curved appeal once more. That said, it's not an essential upgrade - there's no monumental leap here. The edgy flagship is evolutionary rather than revolutionary. But with its dazzling display, unique curved design, and enduring battery life, it is our hope that the Samsung Galaxy Edge S7 wins over a whole new set of fans.

Engadget | Chris Velcazo

This year's Galaxy S7 Edge is what Samsung's Edge family should have been all along. It combines first-rate horsepower (minus the occasional hiccup) with a gorgeous display, all wrapped in a comfortable, attractive package.

Android Central | Andrew Martonik

Don't let the physical similarities to the Galaxy S6 and S6 edge turn you away - there is so much to like about this year's flagship.

Firstpost | Nimish Sawant

Samsung Galaxy S7 edge is highly priced, so it's definitely meant for a select group of buyers, who want nothing but the best from their phone. The Galaxy S7 edge does deliver on most fronts.

GadgetSpeak | paul_smart

A rather nice phone that has the ability to fast charge via wireless, I did not try this, sticking to the perhaps safer micro USB connection. The word 'Edge' is taken literally here as the screen has no border at all, so the screen literally goes to the edge.

Digital Trends | Malarie Gokey

With the Galaxy S7 Edge, Samsung's side screen is finally ready for primetime... It's more comfortable to hold, adds more screen real estate without adding any bulk, improves the camera, and reincorporates gems like water resistance and a MicroSD card slot... It's a gorgeous phone with tons of power and lots of special features to make it stand out.

AnandTech | Joshua Ho

Overall, the Galaxy S7 and S7 edge are solid phones, and overall are quite good. However looking at the broader path this phone has taken Samsung on, I'm left with the feeling that Samsung is just trying to follow industry trends rather than really approaching the design of their devices with some focus in mind.

The Telegraph | Rhiannon Williams

The Galaxy S7 Edge is a beautiful, functional phone which addresses virtually all of the shortcomings of its predecessors. However, you can't please everyone, and there will be those who are annoyed at Samsung for not taking more risks with the design and for relying so heavily on the blueprints of the S6, although the same criticism could fairly be levelled at Apple.

IT PRO | Alan Lu

As long as you can handle its somewhat slippery and uncomfortable form, the S7 Edge is a very good Android phone. If you want a current-generation Galaxy phablet, a big Android phone with a superlative camera or just want something flashy to show off then there's really no choice but the S7 Edge.

Australian PC World | Krishan Sharma

... while it is a very good Android device, there is much better value to be had elsewhere.

Mobile Syrup | Ted Kritsonis

There's an irony about the S7 Edge in that it is probably more popular than its flatter sibling, yet is much harder to find a good case or screen protector for it. The curved glass already makes it more delicate.... Fast Charging and wireless charging help lessen the impact of the battery drain, which is nice when dealing with a 3600mAh non-removable battery inside.
