No U.S. unlocked model

Performance While the Note7 isn't a slow phone
It's slower than other Snapdragon 820 devices
Huge performance issues
Super high price
Curved screen isn't a “real” edge screen
Occasional performance variances
Current battery issues
Don't ever drop your Note 7

An iris scanner will always be slower than a fingerprint reader
Since you have to aim it. Plus Samsung's implementation tak
Bulky for a phone
Screen too small for tablet tasks
No support for external monitor or Ethernet
The iris scanner is a neat feature

Battery life could be better
Iris scanner is unreliable
Fingerprint scanner could be better

Abstract: Update (9/13/16): Since publishing our original review of the Galaxy Note 7, Samsung issued an unprecedented recall of the phone amid fears of exploding batteries. The US Consumer Product Safety Commission (USCPSC) also issued a statement urging consumers...
You may be saying "that sort of read like a review to me, David." And in a sense, it is - just not a finished one. But I haven't had enough time to really focus and dig into the Note7 to come to a definitive verdict yet. There's a lot to like here - a rec...

If you want a phone with a big screen, the Galaxy Note 7 should be at the top of your list. It offers a gorgeous 5.7-inch display in a striking rounded design that's a pleasure to hold, plus a best-in-class camera, water resistance and very long battery l...

The Galaxy Note 7 is an almost incomprehensibly versatile smartphone. It can do so much right out of the box! However, the large screen, the seemingly endless functionality, and all of that S Pen goodness are obviously… not for everybody. So who is it for...
