Hello. As someone who works for Samsung (betcha didn't expect that, huh! also fairly low down the chain. I'm hoping to also not be a fuckwit, but I can't make any promises) I'm hoping to shed a little light on the lack of a Plus size model for the 7 lines.
It's rather silly, but the actual reason we were given as to why there wouldn't be a S7 Edge Plus was simply for stockkeeping - having retailers stock the S7 Flat, S7 Edge AND S7 Edge Plus, in multiple colors of each, was simply not viable - we ran into this issue with the S6 and several stores ran out of popular colors much faster than we'd like to, giving us a huge pain to deal with.
Now that we're expanding the online store, we can hopefully stockkeep ourselves this time and maybe actually get a Plus-size model for the S8... But I doubt it won't be Edge, sorry. They are super popular. I mean, even I got one, and I didn't even get an employee discount. (Granted, I got it for the 20% larger battery against the S7 Flat, but still.)
"Based on our investigation, Samsung learned that there was an issue with the battery cell. An overheating of the battery cell occurred when the anode-to-cathode came into contact which is a very rare manufacturing process error. There were three specific contributing issues: The anode-to-cathode, squashed plate and shrinking insulating tape within the battery cell."
To be fair, only the S6 series had no SD card. The 7 series phones use the dual-sim tray to either load dual sim or sim+SD (except in countries where they lockout the dual sim feature, which basically just turns it into a sim+sd tray)
And they're not 4K screens either, they're "Quad HD" at 2560x1440.

For the Note9 we're going nuclear!
The stylus also works as a control rod.
