Samsung Galaxy S7 S7 Edge smartphone

This must have been one of the most leaked smartphone launches in the history of smartphone launches with sketchy rumours and blurry photos percolating since before Christmas. (I wonder if Samsung slowly leaks this stuff on purpose to build up interest and steam ahead of its launch.)

It's still winter which means it's still grey and cold and dreary (if it were spring, I'm confident it would still be grey and cold and dreary).

Thankfully, I've become somewhat better at determining what 'works' and what 'doesn't' although of course I'm still prone to my share of 'what was I thinking?!' moments.

Anyway, here are my top 3 places when shopping for a new look, considering their style, price and quality.
