Samsung Galaxy S6 edge+ review: Starborn

28 August, 2015
Samsung Galaxy S6 edge+, as its name suggests, is the bigger and flashier sibling of the SM-G925 smartphone that dazzled the world with its dual-curve display a few months ago. The newcomer is aimed at users who want a premium phablet, but don’t covet the S Pen of the Samsung Galaxy Note5 that debuted alongside it.

          I prefer this over the note because i dont think i need the Spen, design looks neater without Spen. Better aesthetic, and mainly because its one of the lightest phablet that is 20g less than the note 5.

                  It sounded and looked OK at first, then it wears out. Who in the World would put your device' front screen facing a surface? Just so it lights up when assigned colors for only a few people? Less in substance, and I can't figure out why the need to have a 5.7" version of the same 5.1" speced device. It's definitely for people to just show off, and not much for power users.

                    this idea of note, s6, s6+ edge is the most unwanted and impractical by samsumg. it gives the most uncomfortable usage in any smartphone. useless and waste of rnd time by samsung. a flat back is very uncomfortable useless innovation.

                                Is it possible for writers to leave "Cupertion giant" amd just write Apple or something else? Do we really care where their HQ is? Yes, Apple might be a good option, but I like the Samsung.

                                A bit annoyed that every time almost I go online, I receive a notification that there are some updates for application. I try to switch them all off, since my usuage of them is very limited.

                                That is what I like about the devices from the CUPERTION GIANT, there are no notification about application updates. But very annoying though that there is no message received notification function still, something the most affordable Nokia had tennyears ago!

                                I hope the Note 5 comes to Europe, same with the S6 Active.

                                    My question was straight forward i did not know what i asked so i asked it here.
                                    I am not a big spen fan but i love to write with it sometimes. i.e i was wondering if i cud do the same thing with spen on S6 Edge+. But whom am i explaining this to a psycho.lol
