Samsung Knox is the best mobile security solution on Android. And you can't have it on non-Samsung Android phones. S-Health is also the best fitness tracker app on Android. You can't also have it on your Sony phone. Sorry. Just two of excellent Samsung proprietary apps and features amongs many that are exclusive to Galaxy phones and superior to other similar apps you can download from Playstore.

It also has the most amazing security features available right now.

It uses your core android environment as a gate keeper and decoy to shield your Knox environment. It can run 3 simultaneous fully independent Android environments at once while recycling anything in common between the three to only use the resources of one.

It's much more stable and stays snappy for a lot longer due to its app optimization system. I've never had a single crash, freeze, glitch or random reboot at all. My iPhone 5s would slow down after a few months and get the misc storage bug all the time. Anytime anything weird happens on an iPhone there's no fixing it. The only solution is a hard reset and restore. The app optimizer on the S7 automatically detects glitchy, unstable or excessively resource hungry apps and notifies you and presents you with options to fix or disable the problematic app.

Glass devices are basically the best bridge for iPhone users to enter the world of Android. You can either stay or ween yourself off of all the features you're used to and then go cold turkey into cold feature barren world of stock android.

Galaxy phones basically mirror all the functionality of the iPhone but some don't go as deep. The pro audio system for galaxy phones for instance doesn't have as many apps but you can do what you want perfectly fine with what's there. It has the advantage of more hardware compatibility though. It can connect to any USB interface directly allowing it to be a full fledged pro audio studio. The iPhone doesn't have nearly as wide a range of USB support for devices.

I can go on forever but to sum it up galaxy phones benefit from exclusive hardware optimized sub systems that give it all sorts of special powers stock android can't touch, and it offers all the advantages of Android on top of that and takes all that even further.

The gear vr is another huge plus. It's hands down the most hassle free vr system and blows the daydream away in terms of performance and with the just announced motion controller along with 70 titles you get way more out of the S7 than with the iPhone 7.

The S7 can basically do anything. The iPhone is a great smart phone with very polished audio and video capabilties. It also handles games and apps very smoothly at the cost of any ability to multitask.

The S7 was the original and still is the top multitasking mobile computer with the widest range of capabilties on the planet.

I think it needs more ram and I guess you only pays for the name Samsung. If the proccesor is the same I guess xz beat samsung in speed test.

Ali Bashir, 02 Jun 2017Absolutely the xz, and if you can find the xzs with the same price then it is better and better. I'm really disappointed with sony, I bought the XZ when it was considered as the latest flagship, then they released the XZs with the same camera as on the XZ premium with 4GB ram, I could've​ easily bought it if the XZ hadn't released now I've to keep my XZ which has been out performed by the two.

[deleted post]This is really a great phone from Sony, the moment you hold it in your hands you'll fell in love with it, it feels just so premium. I'm using this beauty since February and I'm yet to find flaws in this beast, superb built quality, great screen, good for playing games and watching videos, battery life is also great, updated to the latest version (7.1.1) it lasts to over a day as I'm not a hardcore gamer, front facing speakers could be a bit louder but no complains as I use headphones, camera is also great but you need to fiddle with the manual mode settings to take great shots. Overall a great phone to buy specially now as the price has gone down with the release of XZs and XZ premium to follow in mid of June.
