Meh, I saw the press conference and the price tag doesn't justify it for me.

The Galaxy S7 which costs $100 less has:

Waterproofing
Wireless Charging
Micro-SD Card
We will see about the camera but it was interesting that they left out Galaxy S7 in the press conf
1440p vs 1080p (Only the Pixel XL has 1440p and that costs even more)
And the international version of the S7 has a much better CPU
Heart rate sensor and etc

The on time software updates doesn't justify the price for me cause the Galaxy S7 will still get those features at a later time and it already has features that the stock android is just now getting. (Such as Multi-Window and VR). Yea touchwiz but virtually everyone agrees that the S7 has the least amount of bloat compared to any previous Samsung phone and people can always put launchers on them + Goodlock to make it more stock android. What software won't change is the hardware abilities and the OS upgrades only have a 2 year guarantee. Heck the Nexus 6 just now got Android N and its a month late.

Overall... Meh + Skip. Its priced like a flagship but doesn't offer what its competitors do. Unless on-time software updates are really important to you, there are plenty of other phones that are just better value.
