Great features, not sure the edge adds a lot to the experience.

I love the new s6. The processor is fast. The camera opens ultra quick, and the display is bright and easy to read. The auto grouping of icons is great and enables fast finding of the desired app. The fast charge feature is great and I think this offsets the fact that you can't switch batteries as in the past s series. Also I had to upgrade to the 64g because i was afraid to run out of space with no ability to put in an sd card. I love the light and thin feel to the phone itself, even with a protective case it still feels light and airy. I'm not sure the edge screen adds a lot to the experience though. It has the little night clock which is nice, but is not a "can't live without it" feature. Overall a great phone and it is my second Samsung and I will be back for more.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, Lightweight, fast processor, camera opening quickness
Svelte, sophisticated, smooth, singular, solid, smart, snappy, state-of-the-art. This S6 phone caused me to switch from an iPhone 6 and there's been no turning back, my best smart phone experience yet!
Another reason why Samsung is better than the iPhone

Every year, like clockwork, Samsung releases their new Galaxy phone model which has no competition. When the Galaxy s5 released, apple came out with the iPhone 6. Now since the s6 is out, there is no competition until the release of the iPhone 7.
If you want to make the most out of your money, i suggest purchasing the Samsung s6. Up-to-date technology, wireless charging dock. If you thought the screen resolution was amazing on the s5, wait until you see the s6.
Two things i didn't like, no removable battery, no external storage.
Aside from those two things, the charging speed has gotten quicker. The removal of the portable battery adds to the sleek new design. The curve edge is far before its time, i know there will be imitations by competing brands in the near future.
All in all, its the best phone on the market, and its released before the competition releases their competing phone. The light sleek design makes it well worth the money.
If you can only purchase one phone for the next two years, this is it! by the time the iPhone 7 comes out in two years, this phone will still be competing!
I have owned many different phones over the years including iPhones and Windows phones. This is phone is now the new king of the market. The edge screen may seem like a gimmick, but it is certainly a differentiator. Everyone that sees my phone wants one. The apps will come. The only complaint I have seen is the non-removable battery and no SD slot. You don't need the SD since even the lowest version of this phone comes with 32 GB of storage. The non-removable battery is worth it for the form factor you get.
