Samsung Galaxy S7 Active G891A 32GB Unlocked GSM Shatter,Dust and Water Resistant Smartphone w/ 12MP Camera - Titanium Gray

Very very very good phone.Coming from a Galaxy S4, S5 and S6, and lately from an Iphone 6s, I'm happy to say that it is one of the best phones available in the market right now.High Points:- Battery. Best ever. With heavy usage, a day and a half easily. With regular usage almost two days.- Screen resolution: very good. Best i've seen in Samsung- Camera: Best so far, but if you are an average photographer, nothing new compared to the Galaxy S6. (By nothing new I mean nothing that will change you life)- Good but probably won't use that much: Water resistance, and the capacity button.- FIngertip security: very good. Probably at the same level as the Iphone 6s, but better, much better than Galaxy S6- Roughness: very solid, good grip (better than S6 and 6s). You are never afraid of hitting anything or dropping it.The screen glass though, although it is supposed to handle bumps, I read somewhere that it scratches a lot. Didn't happen to me yet (fingers crossed).Low points:- A little too bulky- WARNING: I saw a lot of blogs and even allegedly a Samsung statement saying that some of the phones had a failure with water resistance. There were many reputable online reviews (CNET I think and some others) that had some problems with this. I tried mine under water and everything went ok. But I suggest asking your seller first if they respond if anything happens.As for the rest, as any of the latest phones. Very good, solid, comfortable, great Android apps.If I have to name only one thing that I liked: The battery. I couldn't believe that no phone can last for more than a day. Well... here you have it!Would I buy it again: no doubt.Would I advise you to buy it? Depending on what you are looking for. If you are the sporty one, that likes roughness and durability:don't doubt. GO ahead.If you are looking for something fancy to show off in parties. Then probably go fo.r an S7 Edge or an Iphone 7.

I liked the phone and was looking forward to finally having a good phone, less then 30 days after activating it, it is now Dead, Totally Dead.. this happened the very first time my phone got to 0% battery. Thats all that happened! and it has never responded since. this was confirmed by the manager at our local AT&T.This is the S7 Active it should be better then thatthe worst part was is, Ithe middle in the of arranging my Sons Funeral when this happened, so I was delayed in reporting the defect.Seller says its past the 30 days so they closed the return request.how heartless.

this meets my expectations. to note, I do outdoor sports and do meet extreme temperatures, bad weather and handle my electronics with little care. for most users, I would suggest getting a regular s7 (which is waterproof) and a waterproof case. actually, I would have gotten a oneplus3 if its camera was better for its higher specs. I say that because:-this is quite heavy, bigger, and does not fit in the samsung gear vr!-the protective rubber on the body gets scratched and is not removable-its not very pretty/you can use a regular s7 as is in the city and just put on casing when you go outdoors-the battery is not removablebut for someone who is looking specifically for a rugged phone, this is the best(only real flagship) I have found. It distinguishes from the already waterproof s7 by:-a bigger battery. maybe the biggest battery on a flagship as of april 2017-justifies the extra weight well!-good design for use with gloves. the physical buttons (instead of touchscreen buttons) are quite handy-it claims to be more resistant to extreme temperatures. I have not tested this yet, but it does matter to someone who spends time on mountains and has problems with electronics in the cold.-the active button and interface with flashlight, step counter etc. is pretty nice. I also put my music on long press, just a perk for hikes.-i like the pulse and sp02 sensors.one last note: the rear camera is quite good, though it could have been more wide angle. i think 12mp is more than enough for a phone and increasing um was a good choice. the front camera is average. the stock camera app is impressive, i wouldnt need another app.

Hate samsung, if only it had current techHaven't made anything reliable since 2015?

I had a Samsung S5 a while back (which was run over by a car) and wanted to try another rugged samsung phone because of how much I liked the first one. I've only had this phone for a few days now and I'm already so happy I bought it! My two mobile devices that I've been using were a microsoft phone and an apple iPad. Both of which have a litany of issues which severely limits overall functionality and usability.This phone in a very short time proved itself far superior to both. It has superior battery life, camera, app store, screen resolution, speed (switching between apps etc). Everything I've used this phone for so far has been great, including the battery life. For a used phone I wasn't sure what to expect exactly but so far I can go about 2 days and one night without a charge although by the end of that time it is almost dead. I've found though that when not in used the battery holds it's charge very well.

The third party distribuer lied to me about everything the phone was pitched as new but it was total junk and Samsung told me it was a refurb it wasn't new as pitched and didn't work at all it would transfer the apps from the old phone to the new one and the apps on the phone were from a 2017 Samsung Galaxy j7 the gold was faded and the charger wasn't a fast charging one forefront salutations are nothing more then scammers
