Why just have CCA bands when you can have all the LTE bands in the USA and 3x Carrier Aggregation to boot!   http://s4gru.com/index.php?/blog/1/entry-405-teaser-samsung-galaxy-s7-and-s7-edge-one-of-

Here you go.  I will be posting a comparison between my S6 Edge, Note 5 and the new S7E.  S7E is not much better than the Note 5 in terms of RF.   http://imgur.com/a/YsCTz

Since it has all the bands Samsung should sell an unlocked version compatible with all carriers like the Nexus phones and Moto X Pure Edition.

3600 mah battery for the S7E sounds very, very good.

Unlike an LCD panel which has a full screen backlight behind the pixels (even the black ones) drawing heavily on the battery, an AMOLED screen can illuminate individual pixels. If you have a black screen, there’s no actual power being drawn. Trigger a few pixels to put information on the screen and while it still draws power, it draws significantly less power than an LCD screen showing the same information.

 

This could be real useful on both models but I could see it being a main feature for the edge.

So, it looks pretty but it is the same design as the S6/Note 5.  Actually, it is the Note 5, just smaller.  I'm going to hold out and see what HTC has in store for its M10.  Although I've seen the leaks it may not be what it actually looks like and I'm open to any device that has the Snapdragon 820.

Qualify that. Same general external design. If you're hung up on that and looking no further, you get what you deserve.

 

The guts are very different. Just the external format is similar. That format wasn't broke so there was nothing to fix there. Electrically, HUGE difference, so your statement as written is entirely incorrect.

 

New radios, weather resistant, sd card, new computing architecture, talk of a new display technology, newest OS compatibility, newest gorilla glass, about the only thing likely missing is USB-c.

 

The lack of a user replaceable battery may not be a big deal if they have the latest battery and charging tech incorporated for durability.

 

What else did I forget?

All I have to go on is looks for now. Until the specs are announced, I don't believe we can base assumptions off the rumors.

      Official Tmobile-Sprint merger discussion thread

      By RedSpark · Posted

      Everything "Uncarrier" is becoming "Carrier" again. Because of the Credit Limit that T-Mobile put on our account for no reason at all (and wouldn't change/update the last time I checked all the way up to the CEO), I don't plan on buying/upgrading our iPhones through T-Mobile. I'm going through Apple directly. Looks like I'll be going through Google and Samsung directly for our other lines for upgrades. Also, we're staying on Sprint Max given the ridiculous pricing for Go5G Plus. On Sprint Max, we currently pay for our Plan: $260 for 7 Voice Lines $25 for two Wearable Lines. (One is $10/Month. The other is $15/Month because the AutoPay discount only applies up to 8 lines.) Total: $285/Month vs. Go5G Plus (Per the Broadband Facts "nutrition label" on the T-Mobile Website): https://www.t-mobile.com/commerce/cell-phone-plans $360 - ($5 AutoPay Discount x 7 Voice Lines) = $325 The Watch Plans show as either $12/Month or $15/Month: https://www.t-mobile.com/cell-phone-plans/affordable-data-plans/smartwatches So this is about the same for the wearables as what we're paying now. Overall, it's quite more than we're paying now to switch plans. Ridiculous....

      Welcome back! That's similar to my best (1250ish). A few people have broken 2000 on good sites.

      I’m surprised they’re running a 5x5 Band 66 carrier still. In NYC T-Mobile has 25x25 AWS and they’re running 20x20 Band 66 and 5x5 n66 (in testing). Presumably when n66 commercially launches they’ll drop Band 66 down to 15x15 and go straight for a 10x10 n66 carrier like they did with n25.

      Austin has now narrowed B2 to 15x15 to support a second 10x10 n25 channel, this time entirely in PCS A-F. So T-Mobile now has 35x35 FD (n71 + n25) and 180 MHz TD (n41) NR live here, and LTE single carrier bandwidth now tops out at 15x15. LTE is down to 5x5 B12, 15x15 B2, 10x10+10x10+5x5 B66, so they now have 5 carriers each of LTE and NR, with 45x45 total LTE.
