Coming from an almost 3 year old Google nexus 5 I was sure I was going to be blown away with the S7. Unfortunately so far i'm experiencing UI LAG all over the place.
Examples:
I can be changing system settings and things will hang and not respond to the first screen touch input.
Multitasking is odd too, sometimes I'll switch back and forth between 2 apps to copy and paste and the app I was just in has to reload, how is that possible with 4GB?
Somehow in both the stock "Internet" browser and chrome, websites with semi rich contact will chug (this one in particular chugs when you scroll past any add).
The camera app is fantastic as far as feature set and quality, but switching between and side swiping into pictures to review them and back is a crippling experience.
I am hoping that Samsung will release an update to address these basic issues, I can't imagine this processor not having enough power to blow through these situations, benchmark and memory speed is off the charts.
It takes a while to swipe from gallery to camera, slower than just to click camera oddly enough.
Cant comment on the ads on xda. I block ads.
The rest of those issues I have never seen.
It's TouchWiz man, what did you expect? Even if they put 32GB RAM in it the multitasking will be bad, it is software related, not hardware.. I have a Nexus 5x and multitasking is amazing with only 2GB of RAM.
Yup I agree. Came from 5x myself and it blows the S7 out of the water in regards to multitasking.
Already rooted my S7 and now waiting 'patiently' for the first custom roms.
I know from experience with the S6 that a good (clean and debloated) custom rom + kernel + DHA changes makes all the difference.

you could try turning off animations in the developer settings
That's one of the very first things I turn off (no animations) after first boot of phone.

Coming from the Nexus scene I know the wiz is known to be a stumbling joke, and I guess some reviews convinced me they had fixed their act up by now. IMO the multitasking is unacceptable, and since I have the tmobile locked BL version I can only pray that Samsung fixes it in an update.
Another annoying thing I found is if you try touch input right before an animation actually finishes it ignores the touch input, as if it's designed to do that. I'm just used to a much more "fluid" experience than this.
*Just turned animations off and it seems to have solved some issues. Is it possible to block ads (modify hosts file) without root?
What I personally don't get is the very choppy multitasking performance (one tile at a time) on my S7 and definitely not as smooth as in LP (on Samsung S6, Note 5, Note 4).
At the same time I see in the new S7 review from MKBHD that multitasking is supersmooth (as it was before). See for yourself approx 2:50 in :
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1sgeM6DsV40
Several users on Dutch forum have also indicated some have choppy performance, and some have completely smooth scrolling.
All have 'no animations' set within Developers Menu.
How can it be such a huge difference per phone...?
There are definitely some microstutters here and there, but I don't get any hangs or major slowdowns though, nor any app reloads for that matter (did some build.prop editing though). But the first firmware is usually really slow due to Samsung sacrificing performance for stability before the launch, and it is definitely going to improve once we get to the second or third firmware revision (has been this way for every Galaxy-device ever). Eagerly waiting for a custom kernel to enable F2FS as that could improve the stuttering a fair bit.

People use different settings and some even allow Google and Samsung to continuously collect data in the background which could explain why some people have horrible battery-life while others don't. Had to set up my friend's S7 Edge from scratch because he was getting somewhere around 2-3 hours of screen on time. So don't agree to anything when setting everything up and you probably won't have any issues.
I don't have lag on my gs7

I'm fairly sure it'll already be using F2FS. I mean, I don't know for sure, but F2FS is Samsung's code.

My remarks are very specifically and exclusively in regards to the weird choppy multitasking when swiping through the app tiles. This used to be buttery smooth...just flick your finger and the apps roll by continuously. Now it's one app/tiles at a time...that's what I mean by choppy.
And the wierd thing is some users have this on their phone, and others don't.
Now that I mention this...I am running 6.0.1. Could it be other users are still on 6.0? That could explain it...
Anyway...like you say...eagerly awaiting custom roms and kernels. Maybe even some specific DHA settings to improve RAM management (it's alreadyy much better than on stock S6, but still could be improved).
Hey Guys,
Read over the comments and I thought I'd chime in here. So lets get something straight here. SAMSUNG UI WILL LAG. Unfortunate but true, TouchWiz will have a lag, stutter or hiccup here and there when doing some things. I've experienced this myself (and I always look for lag, like its my job). Scrolling through FB and sometimes Instagram will have a stutter or be a bit choppy when scrolling through (normal for multiple reasons, but particular due to lack of optimization). Browser wise, a very better job but this too can have a stutter or two, perfectly normal. Again the UI can cause this. Despite these issues, I'm loving the phone and its features, easily the best the device I had. I had to root my S5 so many times and over clock it for it even to get close to smooth.
The S7 again is a great device my only gripe is battery life while in use. Standby time is pretty great but not so much when in use. Though I haven't tested my screen on time as of yet, I would bet I'd be maxing out around 3.5 hours. Hoping some firmware updates can help with this though. If your device is over heating, not acting correctly, or you feel its different from other models when you play around with them, take it back in for a new one or replacement. If my S7 had some of these issues, I would do that to ensure I'm happy and have the item I want.
I hope this helps those worrying about getting this device or who have this item but feel they're having too many issues.
Seriously, my desktop pc with gtx970 core I5 and 16Gb RAM also stutters and lags some times.. NO device with an OS will ever be lag or stutter free! My s7 edge actually does better in Samsung browser than chrome on my PC! Comon guys this is not even a problem FFS!
I have no lag. Phone is super fast.

It's EXT4 for some reason. Not sure why samsung wouldn't use their own filesystem, especially when it is so much faster.

Umm then you really should do something about that as my i7 4770K/GTX 980ti never stutters. Maybe you have faulty AHCI drivers or something? You really should check your system with a latency-tool to identify the causes of those lags.
I am experiencing the lag on a brand new s7. Turned off animations, but this has no effect on the stuttering in chrome.. I also notice a very janky transition when flipping through images on droidiris.. this worked perfectly on my old nexus 5 (non-x version)

Yesterday I decided to buy the 5X again as I do miss that phone...especially the clean Android experience (plus very regular updates).
Still the S7 is a beast of a phone (and a keeper). Awaiting custom roms...
I'm curious if there are any forum members that replaced the Samsung S7 with the Google Pixel. I have one pre-ordered and I'm glad for the wait, but I would like to hear from those that are moving from Samsung to this phone. I've had stock Android before with the Nexus 6P. How do the two compare as far as battery life, photos and day to day functionality.
I've seen the YouTube reviews, but they are mixed and who knows if they are paid reviews.

Here are my first impressions. I posted this originally on TheVerge
Setup of this phone was the fastest I have ever done. More apps are taking advantage of the Google Drive backups and using the cable to plug directly into my S7 Edge allowed me to move over 3.3 GB of data in 3 minutes. Additionally I had to install 92 more apps which seemed to just fly through. I had to sign in to a few but DashLane helped speed that process up
No more grinding down to a stall when installing apps. One thing that annoyed me about pretty much all Android devices especially the S7 Edge was the fact the entire system will just slow down to almost a complete standstill when apps where updating. Not the Pixel, didn't even realize app updates where happening in the background. I can actually use my phone while an app is updating.
Hey look! The Pixel can charge my Galaxy S7. This may come in handy in a crunch with my iPhone
It is still going to take me a while to get used to the button placements on the Pixel after using the S7 which had them reversed. I still think there are capacitive buttons in there to sometimes as I press the non functional chin.
Wow my Tile now works correctly. It ill now ring my phone when I press the button like it is supposed to do. This feature never worked on the S7 Edge.
Whatever DAC their using in this phone sounds great. Had me lit on Young Jeezy driving to work. However, where is the damn equalizer?
I prefer Action Launcher to the Pixel Launcher. Swiping for the shortcuts seems more intuitive than long pressing.
Built in Visual Voicemail is sweet. Maybe I can finally stop using Google Voice for VM. I would like transcription though which would be nice.
I dig the notification sounds
Fingerprint sensor is so much better than the S7 Edge
Double Tap to open an notification at the lockscreen. Geez here have you been all my life. Its the small things.
All in all I'm liking this phone. After being in the Samsung camp for my past 2 phones S6 Edge and S7 Edge I am happy to be back to the Googlish way of doing Android.
I came from a Samsung Galaxy S7 and love it. I am on Verizon but I bought my Pixel from the Google Store. Battery life for me anyway is better despite having a smaller battery in the Pixel. I could definitely get 2 days out of this phone. I am a light to medium user. I am actually sick at home so I haven't tried out the camera much. I thought I would miss at first some of TouchWiz features, but I don't miss them at all. Day to day use: everything works great as expected from a high end smartphone. No issues yet. I am glad I made the jump. The stock ui is a nice to have back. I had the Nexus 5 a while back. Glad to be back to Google's stuff. I do miss the waterproofing though. But I will manage.
Bruce,
Thanks. I'm a medium to heavy user. I normally put 2.5 to 3 hours of screen on time daily and I make it through the day. I look forward to getting the pixel at the end of November. I trying to wait for Google and other break down and order from Verizon.

I was a die hard Samsung user. I had the S4, S5, S6 and the S7. Before that I had the first Nexus out. When I heard about the Google Pixel and that it was high end hardware I thought I'd give it a try and get back to the Google Android experience. Since I've had it I love it and am not looking back. Battery life is better, it is more responsive, camera is great. I too thought I'd miss some of the features on the S7 but not the case at all. I see this phone offers a lot of good features out of the box and very customizable.
Don't regret the move at all.
Edit: and the fingerprint sensor is more accurate and responsive.

I never have any problem with my S7 edge with exynos as far as phone stalling....
---------- Post added at 05:20 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:15 AM ----------
for what its worth, the S7 edge is the only phone right now with the longest lasting battery. I had the I7 for a month and would constantly have to charged by 5 pm everyday (unplug at 7) my S7 edge would get through 8-9 pm with 41% left. Honestly, the only thing that hold me back from getting the pixel 1. its made by HTC 2. no Always on display. 3. IP68 rating 4. dual speakers...my S7 edge and i'm sure S7 exynos variant can be flash to utilize dual speakers.
I had the 6p a while back too, if its not for the snapdragon 810 with the 28mm architecture, I would've kept the phone, Samsung perfected the 14mm architechture with their in-house chip and its a wonderful experience now.
Things I miss from the S7:
- Wireless charging
- microSD card capabilities
- Folders in the stock app drawer (fixed with Nova Launcher, paid version)
- Charging status LED (fixed with Light Manager, free version)
- Gear S2 capabilities (moved onto Android Wear, but still)
- Functional "Smart Switch". Didn't want to work, so I had to transfer via Bluetooth and manual setup
- Physical "home" button for waking up screen during calls (I'm hesitant to press power button on important calls as that's my "hang up" button)
- Root/Xposed (won't be long though)
- Apps broken with Nougat (R.I.P. Llama)
Things I love on the Pixel:
- Far better camera
- USB type C
- MUCH faster phone in general. Hardly any lag at all. S7 lagged big time when I traded it in, still not sure why.
- Official Google support
- Google apps not as forced as Samsung apps (automatic photo backup for example is easy to prevent)
- Default apps perform better
- No bloat. S7 had some NFL crap and 3-4 games that I couldn't remove. Pixel had none of that. Bought from Verizon too.
- No TouchWiz stupidity (remember "I'll just save this selection as default without asking you if you wanted that"? Pixel asks every time if you want)
Comparable between both:
- Screenshots (power + home for S7, power + Volume Down on Pixel)
- Internal storage (both were 128 GB)
I'm sure there's more, but that's off the top of my head. Bottom line is Pixel is far better at what it's designed for, but I do still miss the microSD and wireless charging capabilities. I can live without them however.
This is really interesting feedback as I am trying to decide right now between the Pixel and the S7.
The two things I am pretty interested in knowing about are battery life and durability (Ive had an S4 for years, dropped it plenty of times and while there are a few dings around the edges, that phone keeps on rocking).
Anyone else have thoughts after having used both phones?
I also came from the s7.
My only thing I really miss is my Tumi case I had for it. I'm hoping they will make one for the pixel. Otherwise the pixel performs better, great photos, fingerprint is very fast. I would get lagging all the time on the s7, probably touch wiz related.
I've had 2 instances where my Bluetooth quit playing music from Google play on my Toyota Camry, I've had to restart my car to get it to connect again. I'm still troubleshooting if it's the car, Google play or the phone. I've used Spotify in the past and never had the issue.
My battery is much better and quick charging also works great. I have no problem getting through the day without running my battery down
I have a galaxy gear that appears to work perfectly with it.
I don't have an SD card on my s7 and haven't needed one. So that's not an issue. I have however used up my Dropbox 10gb in the past so the unlimited photo storage is nice.
I've had mine for about a week now and just sent my s7 in for the edge up.

coming from S7 Edge you will NOT like the volume level while you're on speaker phone calls or youtubing on the toilet lol ,,,,I am waiting for volume mod on this thing,,other than that you'll love the phone,,even if she doesn't wireless charge,,oh also the charging times it's bull sheet,,,i timed it 15 mins 7 hours more like 30 to 45 mins charge still fast but not that google bullcrap fast,,,standby battery time it's pretty good better than S7 Edge kind of like the iPhone on standby where your battery percentage seem to not go down too fast,,anyone agree?

Cons:- no Waterproofing, no wireless charger, no SD slot, no removable battery, no IR blaster, no dual stereo speakers very less features no themes support for example, big bezels, looks ugly from behind and very overpriced.
just very basic bore-bones boring Google Pixel.
you can get Pixel launcher and Google assistant for FREE if you Root and install custom ROM so whats the big deal?
Pros:-
Excellent Screen, Excellent Camera, very fast and smooth, fast updates, excellent build quality, unlocked boot loader. i love the finger print scanner on the back with gestures, swipe up and down.
but the very high price outweighs the good points.
even OnePlus 3, ZTE Axon 7, Moto Z play, Honor 8 are better buy less price more software and hardware features.
if you want to know which is better between Galaxy S7 Edge and Google Pixel the answer is very clear galaxy S7 win's hands down.
youtube channel's like CNET are biased.
people think it's the iPhone from far away or even from just couple feet away. Phone is awesome just the hardware doesn't have an identity yet lol
Curious to hear more about the battery-life comparisons between the S7 (non-Edge) and Pixel. In this thread a few have said the Pixel wins, but I've read plenty of other reviews that suggest they're on par when it comes to battery life/SoT.
Battery life and Camera quality are the top-two priorities for me -- sounds like camera quality is about equal although the S7 does offer RAW support, which AFAIK the Pixel does not (at least not without a third party app). S7's default camera app also seems a lot more comprehensive than the Pixel's
In my test the pixel standby is definitely longer I have S7 Edge and standby will go down much quicker

Good to know. Thanks. And is SoT about the same between them with, say, heavy use in one day?
I can't say--I have not done an SOT test as all my use is mixed. A heavy use day for me is 3 hours of SOT and just about any phone can handle that. I did have occasion to charge the S7 during the day. That's rare with my Pixel.
I went from the stock Unlocked S7, which ide expect to be the closest to the Play Store Pixel - both lacking carrier bloat. Having said that, the Pixel outperforms the S7 hands down on battery life and performance. I don't have anything scientific, but I simply replaced my S7 with a pixel as my daily driver. I didn't change my habits (if anything I use my Pixel more). At the end of the day my S7 would be in the ~20% range. Currently at the same time everyday my Pixel is at ~60%. The difference is drastic and very noticeable.
Before I upgraded my galaxy S6 to 6.0.1, the screen refresh rate/flickering was fine. That, and it was less laggy in general. I compared my S6 to my brother's Note 4 and his screen looks to be running smoother when swiping through the home screen although his phone is older. Has anyone else ran into this issue and is there maybe a fix in the developer options I can apply?
Hi everyone, I recently have bought a Samsung Galaxy S7 (SM G930U, Snapdragon 820 variant).
I suspect the phone overheats and it goes into throttiling. I attached the screenshots of some tests I have done.
Can you confirm if my phone overheats?
If yes, what is a solution to the problem or can I do something before sending the phone back?
Thank you all for your attention,
Riccardo

If your phone over heats it will shut down prior to any damage. If it isn't doing this it's not overheating.
Hi, thanks for your reply.
In case of overheating, the phone does go into throttiling first?
I think the phone goes into throttling because if I start a stress test, the phone lags terribly (with another phones like Samsung Galaxy A8, A50 or Galaxy S9 this doesn't happen).
I would like to know, is it all normal that my S7 goes into throttling or is my device defective?

Yes throttling is a feature of the Snap Dragon variant I'm afraid.
Are you sure? I believe this was a feature of the Snapdragon 810. I saw some videos showing that the Snapdragon 820 does not throttle and I didn't find much information on the internet.
However, if I start "heavy" games like Asphalt 9 the phone does not throttle, even if I set the details to the maximum

If you search up Samsung Galaxy S7 cooling you can find an article by Samsung describing how they cool their phones by underclocking the CPU, but I don't think it seems to cool the phone down that much. If you can, root your phone and underclock the CPU with Kernel Aditor. Maybe it might be better.
Hi, thanks for the reply. I didn't find the article you told me.
I believe that there are no modified kernels for my phone (SM G930U) and, therefore, I can't underclock the CPU.
HI ALL,
I have Samsung s21 plus exynos 8gb running latest one ui 4.1 but it is very slow lags a lot even sometime when unlocking phone it shutter a lot and even when I'm watching videos I scroll down the status bar it lags , the performance isn't like flagship any suggestions? any lead to fix would be apappreciated ..
The only time I notice a slow performance is when the phone hot, but it rarely happen to me. If the phone is slowing even when the phone is not hot, then you probably got a bad device.
I'm using Exynos though.
Unlock the bootloader with volume up and down when it is off and connected to the computer, save all your stuff because the phone will be formatted.
Then test the performance of your phone again, it happened to me but that's how I solved it strangely, I had already formatted it many times but it was always the same so I unlocked it and that's how I managed to solve that error.
I have no idea why it is but it happened to me in the exynos version, today it works as it should, less in emulators because they are not very compatible due to their api and/or OpenGL
