Samsung Truncates the contact note field
I discovered as early as the Samsung S4 mini that Samsung truncates the contact notes field. As a PDA user, contacts is my version of a contact manager.
Yesterday, I went to the Verizon store with great expectations to have a VR experience and the Samsung Galaxy S7 edge. I did the same thing on four different phones, only the Samsung failed miserably. How do I describe fail? I did a copy/paste many times. Only the Samsung limited the size of the contact note field.

Plastic?! No, just like the S6, the S7 is all metal and glass. The frame (and sides) are solid metal. The front and back are all real glass.
First off, I have a Note 4 and Note5 here and both have fully functional charge ports. As do many others I see. Secondly, it's not plastic. It's metal and glass. As was last years S6 series phones and the Note5. A full metal body isn't the be all end ...

I hope they offer the S7 series with Exynos as well as Qualcomm in the US market.
Anyone know?

Qualcomm Snap 820 in the US.
Only the Snapdragon 820 in the US.
No idea on which Processors will be available.
But I'm really glad they restored the microSD card support. I have a Samsung S6 Edge+ and find it a very good phone overall. But the lack of expandable memory has already caused issues and limited th...
