Nice and simple Dave! Love your content :) S7 Edge looks awesome!
+HardwareCanucks thanks!
Hey Dave , i was more excited for your coverage of the galaxy s7 edge than MKBHD !
That's the best compliment i could give!
+Aaqib Bora I think his video was better than MKBHD's.
+Aaqib Bora Same
Sauron the Dark Lord i totally agree on that! I like MKBHD too but he just took it a level further!
The best reviewer on the Internet, excellent review as always Dave! 👌🏼
You always end your videos with "it's been nice" and I always think...yes, yes it has. Seriously though, really like your reviews. They are really well done. I'm thinking of getting a new laptop and perhaps going down the ultrabook route. Your reviews have been really helpful.
I love MKBHD but honestly he is riding his much deserved wave now and hardly innovates. You are pure innovatión, the fish tank color graded, and then the toilet scene there for kicks...epic.
I've watched loads of reviews on this just got my s7 edge yesterday, and this is my favourite review great job.
Such a great video Dave! Totally saw Justin there in the toilet. ;)
+Canoopsy hah. thanks for watching =)
Your videos have such a chill vibe to it. Its like you just woke up from a long sleep after some great sex and said "time to make a tech video". Seems like you hardly ever get angry.
+Wilvin Crawford hah. I wish this was the routine. #Lifegoals
Good, clean review with awesome production value. Thanks!
Dave, do you have jeans that have rivets at the top of the pockets? If so those might have scratched the screen while inserting/removing the phone. I had that happen to my work S5.
+baltmatrix just looked. i totally do. could they have done it? yikes
MKBHD, MKBHD and then oh, Justin in the toilet? haha
I laughed so hard on that scene lol
+Apicha Kanokthadarat whos the poor guy in the toilet? lol
Justin?
Justin who? i dont know him, i wanna sub to the toilet guy lol
+Ash Tailor (ashthought) dayum dave low key dissed justin! jk jk hahah
I really enjoy the fact that you keep only the most important and most desirable information in your videos. Other tech channels dive a bit too much into the technical features of devices and it kinda turns me off from watching their videos. Which is why I really appreciate the reviews you bring to youtube. Great work and keep it up!
Awesome review Dave!
+NothingButTech88 thanks =) love your stuff too!
I literally watch all your videos even if I'm not interested in the product. Your format and production is just so refreshing.
Everywhere on the Internet it's written as gorilla glass 4? 😅
he made a mistake
Didn't think a phone review could make me feel so calm and relaxed... I love the format and the flow of everything in this video! First time viewer and new subscriber :) Keep up the awesome work!
Great all around tour of the phone, and great shots as always!
Another fantastic review Dave. Said it before and I'll say it again your reviews are a perfect balance of understated, stylish and interesting. Especially love the graphics you use towards the end to wrap them up - such a nice little touch that gives them a consistency and it's a feature that I've not seen any other reviewer use.
Keep up the great work!
So proud of you, Dave! Been watching since 2k subs.
jesus christ, you have such great videos. i don't actually care for most of the content or reviews itself, i just watch for you, your voice, and the production quality.
not even 3 months after u reached 100k and there u have it more 30k subs. man ur hard work is paying u bro. keep it up and keep the good work going. 😊
i don't think you get enough credit for your vector graphics of each device. i enjoy watching the drawing animation for all your videos. it's something that's uniquely you and something that makes you different from other tech youtubers. keep it up!
I love that they brought back the Micro SD card slot! And equally love that they increased the water resistance without the annoying flap
That's the coolest opening shot of any review! Even your fish tank is colour-coded.
Fantastic quality as always, Dave!
Awesome production values in the video mate! Awesome.
Better than MKBHD's S7 'flaws' video
Love your production value. Also, had no idea you were from Toronto! Yay another Torontonian!
+Arbi Daci nice. =0
I don't know why you have less views... your video quality is AWESOME...
Still one of the only reviewers that shows thermals in phone reviews. Thats a plus in my book. And thats dope phone.
Justin in the toilet LOL!!
+Armando Ferreira I think he is implying something lmao
+TechSource agreed
+TechSource hah. nah. just for the lulz. he's pure bro
Dave 2D, simplicity and profession in one package, great video!
+Kaoso thanks!
Your phone review is as great as laptop's. Short but clear and sharp. Two thumbs up!
If you don't like TouchWiz just use a theme, uninstall bloatware (both Google and Samsung), use nova launcher. Thats pretty much as vanilla android as its going to ever be
Uninstall updates, Disable, that's how you permanently get rid of them.
Hey Dave! Was the battery life you mentioned with "always on" display mode turned on?
Your videos are excellent though. Keep up the good work.
I got my S7 yesterday and after I turned off the Message Backup and Sync, man I love it. While not perfect, it's definitely an improvement over the S6. So far I'm happy.
I love your videos. Perfect editing and with personality.
By the way, how did you manage to get an android version of debloater? I´ve just seen the version that requires a Windows PC.
Great review, Dave! :)
Could you do a detailed camera comparison between the S7 and the 6p? A speed test will also be an awesome welcome!
Finally ! Dave, you're the first one I heard saying vapor cooling instead of liquid, cause that's absolutely right.
+Dragos Lucian hah. yeah. to me liquid cooling involves pumps =) this is diff
Your videos are really good. Youre getting better and better at it. You are what MKBHD used to be ( I feel like his reviews now are half baked)
Wow, first ever review I've seen that mentions that in Basic display mode the phone shows accurate colours. Kudos to you. Most mistakenly mention overstaturated colours ignoring the different display modes.
Why do I feel so comfortable liking your videos even before I watch them? Dave, what magic are you working on me? LOL don't worry, I know it's because I know it will be QUALITY.
Awesome content you make, keep it up! Wallpaper at 4.20 min?
I introduced your channel to my friends. And you immediately had 10 more subscribers!!
+Huy Le thanks for the support!
Been here since the 20,000 subscribers. Keep up the good work, i knew you would make it 😃
Your review was awesome! The editing skills are great too. You deserved more subs.
The quality of your videos is soaring. Just get a million subs already.
The quality has always been on point, he's always deserved 1 million+ subs.
Watching Dave's videos just put me in a good mood. Great job man!
You're an awesome reviewer man.
Wish you all the best on your channel.
a completely amazing and perfectly done review D2D , you are way better in this than other guys in the tech world. Keep going 👍
Appreciate your views and the effort you put into your content is something I always look forward to.
I use note 5. Touchwiz has improved more than I would have ever imagined and is actually very good at ram and battery management. Email on Note 5 is average.
Hi Dave, been watching your reviews for awhile now and I really like your laid-back style of reviews (: Just wondering by any chance will you be intending to do a review for the phone model OPPO R7s?
Your videos get better and better!!
nice review and keep up the good work and i appreciate the the 1440 and 4k quality. Glad to see another good canadian youtuber
+silverdragon1s thanks for the support!
Hey man I just recently discovered your channel and I love your videos! :)
One of the cleanest reviews..Good work!
+Welcome2MyPlayground thanks for watching!
The moment when he drops the phone in the toilet and Justin's video is playing... *sips tea*
04:55 that was awesome !
Enjoyed the blue print type animations. Excellent video as always :)
Haha I'm impressed that you're forcing yourself to use Touchwiz, Dave. Most people wouldn't even give it a shot.
For me, the the thing I hated most about Touchwiz was the look of its icons and the god awful bright green and blue notifications and quick settings bar. Luckily the addition of themes in the last generation solved both of these issues. Even better, Marshmallow's default colors for the bar are now true blue and white, so people who aren't into customization don't get those bright colors by default.
For a lot of tech-savvy users, it was the lag that made Touchwiz unbearable, so I'm glad that's basically gone too.
Mkbhd used to be my favourite in gadget reviewing. . I'm kind of want to believe you are better .. thank you .. your reviews are so so clean
Cool review, and you're one of the first who got a good one :o
Oh , and amazing audio quality & graphics!
Nice video. Cool animation at the end... But you've got to know your stuff.
About the SD card: since Jellybean some apps can partially use SD card space, wich is known as "move to SD card". What Marshmallow introduces is adoption of the SD card as system memory, so that if you have a 16gb phone with a 32gb SD card, you then get 48gb of "internal storage", the OS will just use it, no need to "move" apps. The Moto G has adopted it in the last update.
The downside? You cannot just swap another SD anymore, wich I guess is why Samsung blocked that feature. That doesn't mean they got rid of the previous behavior.
Think of it as internal hard drives vs. external hard drives
how do u not have over 1 mil subs your videos are amazing keep it up :)
love your videos man. where can we get your background picture from?
Superb, everything form production value to actual content. Great job
Hey man, slick video as usual! Any idea of when you'll be reviewing the new updated XPS model? I know you mentioned it in your best laptops video, so thought I'd ask :)
+Dan GH mm have a super busy work schedule atm. trying to get it done asap though!
+Dave Lee Ah, don't overwork yourself mate! Cheers for the reply.
Nice video editing. Loving it. Definitely entering my favourite subscriber list. :D Mind asking what software you use to edit your videos? TIA
+Hoe Kiat Lim premiere
Superb high level review
Cool! Hi Dave! Keep up the good work, man! :) can't believe I stumbled upon your video as early as I did :)
Great review Dave! Nice to hear some genuine review :)
Honestly one of the best galaxy S7 reviews I've seen
Hey Dave, great video!!!
May I ask what wireless charger was used in this video?
+Nick Myers aerelight
Good choice, Dave! TouchWiz does have all that bloatware but after a while, you will probably love it.
Why did the Nexus 6P photo in low light come very dark when MKBHD's came bright?
mkbhd is fake he is a noob
Great review! Dave, do you prefer this new phones aesthetics compared to the last generation?
+aadawg123 pretty similar imo. like them both.
such an impressive video .. loved how you showcased the most important features with the sketch.. soo cool!
Amazing video! Your videos are simply epic! The shots,your voice and the blueprint animations all are just great! Keep up the good work!
+Turbo Tech thanks for watching. glad you're enjoying them =)
Alot!
Clean and Simple Review Dave!!
Awesome video Dave. I love the honest review and the comparison to Nexus 6P.
Best damn reviewer in this place. Kudos to you Dave... Speakers, they make a big difference. Even the single on the Moto x 2014 would be welcome on today's devices... and that phone had tiny bezels!
Dave2gg...great reviews; short and simplistic
Great video, Dave! Question: will the dbrand skin get soaked or peel off from dipping into water? I know the machine will be fine though.
This is a good question. Hopefully someone replies. Maybe he can test it in a video?
+Dave Lee Thanks Dave! It's not that the skin looks waterproof but it's the logic that if you really want use the water resistant s7 on water-related occasions, like taking videos in the pool, the phone has to run bare-boned, right? Screen protectors will peel off, cases will be soaked, even the dbrand skin won't work.
+Ivan Yankov oops sorry had a typo. yea. they seem to be waterproof or at least very water resistant. You can easily put that skin underwater without issues of it coming off
Hi Dave! Love the review.
I've been using iPhones for over 4 years, and I also use a MacBook Pro. I'm intrigued by the s7 edge, but sceptical about moving over to Android. Your thoughts?
you have one of my favorite openings of any UA-cam channel.
+Asterisk thanks! although I'm getting bored of it hah. I'll have to change it sometime soon.
Watched all the s7 reviews, found yours to be the best!! #subscribed
Dave, thanks for the detailed battery screens!
Good review! I was wondering if you could do a review of the Microsoft Lumia 650. It's just a budget device but I'm curious as to what your perspective on it is.
the only thing I am going to miss in this device is front facing speakers. Do it Sam!!
Once you've used a Nexus device, Touchwiz really stands out as gargabe even more.
Your reviews and videos are great, very informative. Keep it up. 👍
TLDR: No, you won't get used to touchwiz as a daily driver when you love the stock experience.
I was allowed to keep my company phone when i left after 5 years the other year, it was a Galaxy note edge.
The screen is amazing, and i actually liked the curvey thing; whilst gimmicky it was handy for deciding which incoming notifications i could ignore when consuming media. But touchwiz was in the way ; i decided to deal with it cause .. free phone.
In the end ? No . Just no, Touchwiz was more trouble than it's worth in many factors including 2 whole days of downtime after an OTA update nearly bricked it.
i just don't understand why flagship phones cannot have the option to choose a simple out of the box stock rom downloadable from their website. They have the drivers , it's a straight compile with little to test as everything's stock.
Just don't get it. I'd totally buy a Samsung for the hardware if i could get 100% stock working (including the camera, without going to 3rd party camera apps)
i didnt like the last year's s6 edge cuz my finger would accidently touch the curved display so it was uncomfortable to hold it. How does the s7 edge feel while holding it. I feel comfortable asking you this because I also do a lot of media on my phone. Great video btw!!
Had mine for 4 days. I hate it, it's being returned. If I wanted a crapple product, I'd have bought one.
Can't be rooted, and has to be rooted to a least be able to ATTEMPT to get features back that I use the hell out of.
1) Setting 'location services' to GPS only only lasts until you turn location services off/on again - then it goes back to using WiFi/GPS/bluetooth.
2) Cannot use automagic premium to script GPS on/off when put into my wireless charging car cradle
3) Cannot use file managers on the SD card worth anything. If the app didn't create the folder, it can't write to it. Rooting lets you run an app to fix this.
Another detailed and fair review! That scratch tho...damn.
Wow I am in love with your commentary
People may dislike Touchwiz, but it's way ahead of stock AOSP android. Multi-window, pop-up window, one handed mode, smart stay, hands-free driving mode, etc... should all be implemented in AOSP android.
but not all people smart n noticeable like u brow
great review man, love your work. make us toronto people proud :D
You need more views, great reviews!
Very professional, need a laptop was looking a Asus review thats how I found you. Keep up the good work. Laptop recommendations appreciated
