Well first I would like to say I have had many many phones I have heard all but good things from Samsung so I decided to try them out and get the new edge.. I really enjoy the look of the phone it gives it a nice classy and expensive look to it.. the marshmallow OS is great too I enjoy it alot.. it's very fast easy to use and has many feature.. the camera is very nice absolutely clear as can be along with the 4k video which come out pretty well. Now the bad parts of the phone.. sadlyy first one was faulty with the camera and I had to get a replacement phone after finding out how fragile the phone is.. I do enjoy the glass look of the phone however the glass backing is a bad idea as it is not gorilla glass.. also I realize that my phone gets majorly hot like extremely hot it was at 101 Celsius at one point.. too hot for me and holding them phone is just awkward.. a flat back on a edge technology screen is a bad idea it should have a bit of a curve to the backing... also I do feel the phone get very slow at times I am not impressed at all with how the s6 edge performs. And am wanting to steer away from Samsung as other phones performed better
Coming from a HTC M8, I was incredibly sceptical of how the speakers would sound, turned out their great! They're louder than the front facing speakers and I was blown away at the quality a single speaker could give. Only problem I seem to be having is the power button no longer *clicks* it still works properly but it somewhat slides in and out slowly, instead of that nice tactile click that I seem to have in the volume buttons. This may be a problem with the current case I have, but for the most part I would love to see something inside the side buttons that would fix this instead of me having to pull the button out and pressing it really hard to make it click again. I currently dropped my phone a few times and nothing has cracked or scratched other than my screen protector that I purchased. I'm incredibly pleased with the durability of the glass on both the front and back. I originally believed the phone would come in black, but it seems to be a very dark navy blue, which is way cooler because it looks to be black while not in the sun but a nice dark shade of blue in the sunlight. I initially thought I hadn't known the phone would be a larger size than usual, but this device is the perfect size for my hands, going back to my old phone feels unnatural. The edge is also a huge plus, there isn't much that I love to do with it other than the Edge contacts (colored notifications when face down) and I love that feature, the design with the edge is so beautiful I've never been happier with a single device. Will definitely have to grab the S8 Edge when it comes out, because I don't think I can ever go back to a regular designed phone.
Pros: Inexpensive, Bright display, Built-in speakers, Durable, 20% after entire days work, edge screen features are perfect, led indicator can change colors
No matter what you like to do on your phone, theres a feature to do it. Want to see the screen on the tv? Screen mirror. Cant find the tv remote? Your phone is a tv remote with certain apps. Best one comes preloaded. (PEEL) want to switch apps easy? The edge can be customized for any app. Too many features but easy, fast and fun to own.
Great idea. I cant wait to see if there will be more uses or more integration with other products. Its a solid idea that should be explored further. I can see a fridge or tv with edge, even if its just for some ambient lighting. Great performance great design and purpose built with lots of thought given.
I have always had the galaxy series of phones. My last debate was over the note 5 or the edge plus. This time I chose the edge. Patiently waiting for the next version of the note before I change phones again.
