Samsung Galaxy S6 edge review: Double down

3 April, 2015
How big of an impact can a small change have? The Samsung Galaxy S6 edge has only the extra screen curves compared to the vanilla Galaxy S6, but these two phones couldn’t feel any more different - a difference that you can readily feel when you...

      There are three other amazing features of the S6 edge that are not covered by this review.
      First, the phone is actually water resistant! Check out the water test by techsmartt on YouTube. The edge lasted 23 minutes under water and it can still be powered on afterward. The iPhone 6 didn't even last a single minute and the display is already totally fried.
      Second is it's extremely durable. Check out the drop test held by an Apple fan on YouTube called EverythingApplepro comparing it with the iPhone 6. It's crazy though. It's so though that people were starting to feel sorry for the concrete their testing it on.
      And third is of course the virtual reality feature with the gear VR. It's out of this world and nothing else comes close in the mobile VR realm.
      These three features add great value to the already amazing and sweet looking phone.

            Also the case will not hide the edge, last time I checked Samsung is adding more functionality to it. Moving on drop test reveal it's actually very tough, those who don't want the edge can get S6.

            With regards to your last post, let me see it has the best display, best and fastest processor and internal memory, best ram, best camera and best performance and it's still overrated and over priced. Your post looks like a fan of another brand, trying his/her best to sway people from buying best android handset so far.

                And can't even see how the curved edge is paving way for future phone and display tech.

                  seriously people open your eyes and see what is happening around you ... you are paying more money for a stupid curved screen that doesn't benefit u in anything ... with a back and front glass that will break as soon as you drop it and is way too expensive to repair that is if anyone will be able to repair it correctly. if u wanna put it in a case then what is the use of this curved screen to begin with ...

                  you can be fanboys all you want but anyone with an IQ higher than 1 will know to stay away from this overpriced overrated gimmicky phone.

                  i am an android fan and the phones released this year are not worth spending my hard earned money on.

                        The word what i wld use for the handling of a s6 edge is simply..slippery. Maybe im just too old-school..

                          After testing both s6 variants during the preorders i definitely like the normal s6 more. I thought i will buy the edge but the handling is not feeling good for me. I was surprised about that, cos all reviews are so excited about. However, s6 is a great phone and probably best of 2015, but lack of sd card is still annoying me. So wait till price drops and use it as my second phone.
