The touch screen of S7 Edge is just 0.2 inches smaller; being 5.5” instead of 5.7”. Although the slighter difference in size, it’s easier to use and barely noticeable.

Unlike the Type-C plug port of Note 7, S7 uses the old micro USB charging port. It means you can use your old chargers, accessories or cables for the S7.

Google Pixel XL

This latest phone by Google matches the Note 7 for power with the latest Snapdragon 821 processor and a 4 Gigabytes of RAM. Although, some customers might not like it for the lack of MicroSD slot but it has 5.5” QHD AMOLED display that shows vibrant colours and matches in quality with Samsung’s industry leading display technology.

Other than the random flagships in the market, Pixel series has fast charging, metal body, and a biometric unlock system that feels premium.

Photography has performed so well on the new Pixel series and considered to be better than the already impressive Note 7.

Samsung Note 5

If you are addicted to the S Pen feature and don’t want to spend time looking for a third-party Bluetooth stylus, then you should go for the last year’s model Samsung Note 5. Unfortunately, this isn’t available in the UK, but you may be able to find it online.

It’s relatively old and has a smaller screen but you will be getting the stylus capabilities that no other phone offers. It has a smaller battery, no MicroSD card, and waterproofing.

The only drawback to getting Note 5 is that you can’t extend the storage other than the built-in 32 GB of ROM.

Huawei Nexus P6

The only phone that matches Samsung Note 7’s in size is Nexus P6 as it comes with 5.7” QHD display. It has just 3.7 GB RAM though.

Nexus P6 by Huawei comes with Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 processor which is an older technology. But, the phone has Android Marshmallow 6.0 installed and an incredibly good battery of 3,400 mAh.

Not to mention the good quality 13-megapixel rear camera, and an 8-megapixel front facing camera makes it one of its kind.
