All phones have problems. Just worse on samsung and android. But you’ve allowed me to coin a new phrase the Android Stutter. A Sumsung S7 Edge stutters the iPhone 4s(my god is that even a fair test samsung 7 vs iPhone 4s) was playable and enjoyable.

Summary/Conclusion from me regarding Moonlight on the S7 edge and other devices:
I am using Moonlight 4.8.3 (Android) / 1.1.4 (iOS) with GeForce Experience 3.3.0.100.
I have tested Moonlight on different devices:
*Samsung Galaxy S7 edge (Exynos 8890 variant, Android 7.0 Nougat)
*ASUS Memo Pad 8 (Intel Atom Z3745, Android 4.4.2 KitKat)
*Apple iPhone 4S (Apple A5, iOS 9.3.5)
For both Android devices I used GameBench to display and capture the FPS, on iOS this was not possible (without jailbreaking). While the ASUS tablet and the iPhone 4S connected with USB tethering on my PC had constant smooth streaming playback, the S7 edge did not. The ASUS tablet and the iPhone 4S while working had some milliseconds of video delay but definitely playable and enjoyable. The S7 edge has micro stutters, every second (or less) it switches from 60FPS to 50-something FPS back to 60FPS etc. resulting in a choppy streaming playback which means no smooth gameplay possible. This has nothing to do with network since I used USB tethering while being in offline mode. With the iPhone 4S on WiFi 2.4GHz it was even possible to have a very good streaming playback (without knowing how much FPS it did have), no micro stutters but sometimes a little lag which isn't that much interrupting the gameplay. The ASUS tablet also on WiFi 2.4GHz can get - when the cheap WiFi antenna inside it works... - the same results like the iPhone 4S. Now something positive for the S7 edge: It may not have the same smooth streaming playback versus the ASUS tablet and iPhone 4S but it has the best response time for input/video. On the S7 edge it looks and plays like if there is no video delay like the other both devices have. How can it have better response time or no delay for the video stream and input when the video itself is full of micro stutters? Maybe it has better response times because of the micro stutters or how Moonlight handles the S7 edge differently, I don't know. But I personally would say it first needs smooth streaming playback and right next to it keep the response times it has right now. It makes no fun playing a game full with micro stutters because it doesn't feel like real 60fps.
