Phone owned for less than 3 months

Is the best phone I had ever.. If it had better camera like lg g4, would be the best all the time. Samsung must continue this phone to new version. Nothing to say any more. Let's edge plus to take the ios.. Android will never be top of the ios unfortunately.

Good phone, although carrying the basic Samsung UI it's an awesome cellular device for everyday usage, I would chose this phone over any other to be honest. When buying this phone, it was either this one or the note 5, and I chose this phone and haven't regretted it.
