Nope, and I suggest you don't try to flash one either.
If you would like a very expensive brick then by all means please go ahead
Yes the systems are extremely similar, the specs are identical for the most part, but there is a bit more that goes into the phone being a beautiful work of art versus being an elaborate paper weight.
Which version of the device are you running? Most variants of the edge have custom roms except Verizon and AT&T both for obvious reasons. Locked bootloaders kind of hurt the process... however there is one rom in development by this one guy for the developer edition edge that runs on verizon. It's close to working, a little patience and Verizon users with developer devices should have a rom as well.

XDA already has a forum set up for discussions around the S7. Search and you will find it.

But this is, if I'm not mistaken, discussion on whether or not to upgrade from the s5 to the s7, which I think is a good thread to have.
My opinion on the matter, I'm going to the s6 for financial reasons. I mainly want carrier aggregation. Plus the s6 is good enough. Especially since I buy through third party sellers.

If you're comfortable with the width of the Galaxy S5, the Galaxy S7 Edge is the same width.
I'm getting the Galaxy S7 Edge because of that. I get more screen for the size of device I am comfortable with.
I did try it out at Best Buy. I don't notice distortion when watching videos in widescreen mode, and the glare is a lot less than the S6. They let the screen go more to the edge of the device before starting the curve, so there's a much sharper transition than the S6. This means less glare, and less interference with clicking things.
i just preorder the s7 edge. be here friday.
I must say, I am quite surprise that the note 7 is not trending in the t-mobile note 5 forum, as every new note series usually are before and after the announcement.
Safe to assume no one here is interested? Cannot justify upgrading? Or you simply moving to the s7 edge?
I've already pre-ordered my upgrade.
I'm holding out until we find out if the bootloader will be unlock able or not.
I'm on AT&T and I'm positive it won't be unlocked ever. This is why I'm using the T-mobile Note 5.

Already pre-ordered mine too. I think most us are preoccupied with checking our tmo account, email, and bank account for some sort of notification of shipment...at least I am lol I've already been to best buy twice to play with them. I thought the Note 5 was a beautiful device until I actually held the Note 7 in my hand. Hands down the most spectacular phone I've ever seen. None of the other manufacturers are even close to putting something together that could be compared to the Note 7. I can't wait to see the iPhone 7 so that I can point and laugh! But hey I'm very biased. I've owned Note 3, Note 4, Note Edge, Note 5 (S6 Edge + which is a N5 w/ no spen) and soon the Note 7

I too ordered mine. Black T-mo unit.
I have not thought about going to BB...going to now tomorrow!
Hahah nice!
I played with it at the store, but I still do not know...get the s7 edge...the note 7...or keep my note 5...hard decision!
@clsA I doubt the bootloader will be unlock, and if we achieve root it may just be as buggy as the one the s7 edge received....seems the rooting method causes more problems than fixes.

It's an engboot/kernel that was never designed for nor intended for prime time...the only REAL root that will come for bootloader locked devices would be someone getting hands on samsung's sha256 signature....imho....

I played with one at Best Buy yesterday an it's very nice, I'm just forcing myself to wait till we know whether there will be a bootloader unlock or not. I dunno though. The main reason I want it is for the SD slot, I honestly wasn't crazy about the edges and the fact that they made it even skinnier than the Note 5 since I like a wider phone. I'm seriously considering just getting another Note 4 at this point.
Preordered already

Played with one in Tmobile wasnt really excited i will probably stick with Note 5 and wait until the Note 7 ported roms start rolling in...also the possibilty of a locked bootloader is a turn off so if i did i would get a unlocked international variant. Looking at other forums and seeing China getting the 6GB of rams 128 GB of storage versions is a slap in the face as well. Who knows if samsung will release another version in the US later down the line.

Looks like the w8 variant will likely be bootloader locked just like the US carrier models, since it'll share the sd820 chipset....a sad day for Canadians

Well according to CEO they're going to "measure demand in other regions" for the 6gb/128gb version... but i think it's unlikely to cone stateside... probably have to order a Chinese variant of you want it and pay thru the nose...

I preordered even though I wont see the phone until well after I come back from a trip out of the country.
I was surfing the Note 7 Shipping Waiting Whatever thread. I cant stand the right now mentality, all the people crying about pre order times. Then they are like why did I even bother and throw a fit when they dont get shipping information soon enough.
Well I'm no genius but you are paying the same price as everyone else, to possibly get it sooner and you are getting your choice of free gift.
But if you dont get it a week early the fanboy inside of you will keel over and die as the world stops turning.

I pre-ordered mine.. and after a year of reading about the specs on this phone or supposed to be so great and it's nothing more but a note 5 with an iris scanner and a few extra features I went ahead and pre-ordered one anyways. Then 3 days after I ordered it I found out trying to get 6 gigs of ram in the 128 storage that I wanted in this supposed Beast of a phone. I'm so pissed pissed pissed off

I'm about to reserve one for my wife. Even though the free 256GB SD card looks good right now, I'm going to wait because if that bootloader is locked (like the S7 & S7 Edge) then I'm either going to wait and see what LG has to offer or get an Nexus 6P

Supposedly 2 possible safe note 7's have went up in smoke and flames. I have also read that the major carriers in the US will be allowing exchanges of the now safe note 7's for something else.
Well if this is the case, what other options are on par with the note 7? Im thinking S7 edge or God forbid i go to an Iphone 7 plus. What are you guys looking at just in case or will you roll the dice and take your chances?

This is really a shame because I love my Note 7. If it is recalled again I'm thinking of the HTC 10, since my previous phone was the HTC M8 and I loved it. I would miss the s-pen ALOT, along with all the Note 7's other great features. For now I will take my chances on the replacement and hope all works out.

I just exchanged my Note 7 for the s7 edge at Sprint. I was having Bluetooth issues like others and didn't want to get stuck with the phone for another 2 years. Only crappy thing is since Best Buy wouldn't accept the phone since it's over the 14 day return policy I had to go through Sprint and they did an even swap out so technically I lost $100 since the s7 edge is less money but oh well. I'll grab another 256gb micro SD card and try to make my $100 back.

They would but only if it was purchased through Sprint. Mine was purchased through Best Buy and Best Buy wouldn't help me at all since I was outside the 14 day return window for my "safe version 2" Note 7. Really Sprint shouldn't have let me swap out the phone but I found a manager at one of my local Sprint stores who was cool and he didn't stress where I purchased it so I lucked out.

I've got 4 days until my 14 return window with best buy is over and I'm not sure what I want to do. I love this device and downgrading to a 7 edge would be something I do not want to do, and there's really no other device that sprint has that I want right now. I guess if forced I'd go to an htc 10 simply because it's got root already and decent developer support, but I'd still be upset with having to give my note up, I love it.
The note 7 is dead. If there is a recall, I highly doubt we'll be getting another Note 7...

The S8 will be rushed to try to put this blunder behind them and the Note 8 will probably be the greatest phone ever created in an effort to erease the past.

The s7 edge is only a "downgrade" if your set on having the S-Pen. I loved having the pen to create goofy pictures now and then but it's not a big deal. All the specs are the same with better battery life on the edge. I liked the idea of the Iris scanner but never really used it. Really the only thing I miss is the newer version of Always on display but I'm sure the edge will get it shortly.

It's only got gorilla glass 4 and and half the storage capacity, it is a downgrade, and one I definitely don't want. If I wanted a 7 edge, I'd have had one months ago. Now I'm forced to make a choice I really don't want to make. I really hope they don't scrap the note 7 entirely

This is my first Note, coming from the S6 and I am totally disappointed with all the negative media. I had no problems with the first and none, so far, with the replaced Note 7. There is no other phone that I want right now, so if forced, I'll get a refund and go back to my S6 and wait on the S8... I still have my Nexus 6P on Google Fi.

It may sound crazy, but I haven't used my "upgrade" from Sprint for years. I usually by the phone outright from someone else, which was the case the with first one. That way, I'm not stuck. I usually use PayPal Credit, so no large upfront money put out.

i think the S8+ will do just fine. i have had every note device and never use the S pen. im excited for the new s8 though. just retruned my 7 plus and reversed my upgrade!
I was so excited when I got my note 5 back when, and decided that with oden, rooting was marvelous. and the dev. was very supportive. I'm on the s7 for a second time around and have seen a complete reversal for support. so with me it's a non issue with out an unlocked boot-loader. but if I had to choose, I couldn't wait, its the s8+ . Hopefully, a miracle would happen. peace.
I will get the S8+ if I decided to get a Samsung device this year. Simply because I rarely used the SPen ever.
Yea. I only use spen for copy and pasting texts

The Note 8 might have fingerprint under glass (at front), according rumors, the S8 would have had it, but Samsung run out of time to produce enough.
or the Samsung Galaxy On8? india only, but seems a better phone with removable back cover, none of this glass plated nonsense.
S8+ is on my high priority list! Don't need pen...
Just choose s8 plus
I still remember the day I bought a s6 edge
I used to love Samsung devices, but ever since they went only curved screens I've been bummed. Ooh well no more Galaxy's for me anymore. There are plenty of other phones. BTW absolutely love my Huawei Mate 9, best phone I've ever owned and I have owned almost all of them.
I almost bought a Mate 9, but the development there was scarce. Which made me have second thoughts. I'm currently using the Note 5 and was considering a G6 tough at first. I'm interested in seeing what the S8+ have to offer though and will make my decision after the reveal.
i had galaxy S2 then legendary S3 ...and then i switched to Note 4....and i sweared i would never go back to S series from note series.....so i guess either note 8 or i dont know what to buy these days....When Note 4 came out it blow my mind and i said that i must have it and bought it a moment when it came out....Now days i have no idea what my next phone will be :/
I was eagerly waiting for the release of the new Galaxy S phone, sold my S7 Edge like a month ago. I was all hyped and stuff, but even since all the rumours started to show up (no 6 gigs ram, no fingerprint scanner under the front glass (maybe for Note 8), patent for Note 8 dual camera etc.), I became unsure. At this moment i don't even know if i should spend 900 euros on a phone ) I even considered buying a Umidigi Z Pro
