That concerns me too, but I don't see any provocation in most of the iPhone events either.

I could see (very high) positive pressure as a potential catalyst, but I don't know how reduced air pressure would have an effect.

And now the replacements have the same problems.

That would be the Note, not the Galaxy S7. Different devices.

Well about the note 7 yes At&t sprint and soon verizon have stopped selling and Samsung has stopped making them entirely for now.

Has anyone with the T-Mobile version have the latest update (G930TUVU4APIA) installed? I've been trying for about three weeks, and it keeps failing.

Yes, it installed on my phone fine. If you are having a problem, you could try to use Samsung's SmartSwitch Software.

Forgot about that. It worked. Thanks.

My bill suddenly went up $33/mo a few billing cycles ago. I thought it was curious since I knew my trade-in credit hadn't expired. A call to customer care led to "you shouldn't have continued to receive the trade-in credit after you got your S7's; I don't see any notes indicating the credits should've continued; including the prior months without the credit, there are 8 months remaining ($268) from the initial trade-in credit, and I can offer you $130." I declined, and I got transferred to retentions. After being put on hold multiple times, I was told the same spiel, except they only offered a $66 one-time credit. The agent then told me to hold one last time, and she came back to say that she found the note which granted me the trade-in credits, and I should expect a one-time credit of $268 within the next month. She also noted that it took the T-Mobile system five months to update that I had traded-in our S6's for S7's.

Lesson learned: verify your CSR has written everything down in your customer notes to back up any deal that benefits you!

Major price drop at T-Mobile today. For either the non-edge or the edge versions. (Plus a few other devices.)

$15/month, $360 total price.

Someone on SlickDeals posted a Reddit thread that said the price would drop to $10/mo once the S8 is released--possibly free with bill credits. My Jump on Demand trade-in credits should expire by the time the S8 is released.

I was pretty meh reading about the Nougat update; nonetheless, I decided to update to Nougat, and I really like the changes. Phone feels a lot snappier.

Might buy an S7 SIM free, once the S8 is out. Would be interesting to see how the camera compares to my Nexus 5X.
