for your phone you have the office mobile apps that you can download from the play store - it will have basic functionality.

You can use Office 365 on it, logging in with same Surface Windows Account. You'll got not all function hovever, just basic modifies and editings, considering Office Home is a software for 1 person and 1 pc, Office 365 is a universal platform as a service, it's free on devices under 10", it can share your OneDrive documents, and it got a montry fee for full funcional

whether you use office home or office 365, the apps for android phones are the same, so it wouldn't make much difference getting office 365 just for the s7
