I love my Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge Plus! I previously had the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge, but when I switched carriers, I decided to go with the S6 Edge Plus. I love my S6 Edge Plus! I love the larger size. It's easier for me to hold when my arthritic hands are swollen & hurting. I hope Samsung continues to make excellent phones & will continue to offer these great phones in a "plus" size as well as the smaller "standard" size.
I love this phone, and it does an amazing job at keeping up with everything I need it to do. It has a great processor, enough RAM, and works very well. My only problem is that I don't use the Edge Features like I thought I would, and for this reason I would have preferred the 'regular' S6 instead of this S6 Edge. The phone is definitely a keeper though and I am excited to have it. :)
Innovative Edge, but lacks inspiring user experience and poor battery life

I decided on the S6 Edge recently this month knowing that the S7 and S7 Edge was just a few weeks from being released. I liked the Edge innovation, however didn't agree with Samsung's S7 Edge 5.5 screen size. The 5.1 inch Edge screen was more appealing to me. While compared to the S7, the S6 does lack expandable storage and water resistance, which I didn't mind since I do also currently own the Note 5 which is unibody. Overall, my experience with the S6 Edge has been enjoyable while I find myself wanting. I have the Incipio black case with the Military Shield screen protector which adds to my confidence in using it. The point of contention that has held me back from full approval of the phone is 2 folds: inspiring performance and more importantly battery life. Battery life is just not good -- starting my day at 6am, by 9am I'm already at 50%, that's from just general use and mostly sitting idle. Compared to the Note 5 and my previous phone LG G3, considering newer technology, this is unacceptable. Also, in my opinion, compared to the other phones reference, the S6 Edge just has a slight laggy feel to it, between screens, between applications, etc. It's slight, but I noticeable. Other than than that, I will continue to use this phone and bottom line -- appealing innovative Edge at 5.1 inch hand friendly size but unfortunately due to poor battery life and mediocre performance, this phone does not add any more to the Samsung brand. It leaves openings for the competition. It's the only 5.1 inch Edge out right now. But I've already held the S7 Edge and was surprised, even with the 5.5 inch screen, because of the bezel to screen ratio, curved design, and promise of better battery life, I may be switching in the near future.
Pros: Realistic color, Lightweight, edge
Cons: Did not meet expectations, battery life, uninspiring performance
This is a well designed unit. I wish it had longer battery life and it still allowed the user to insert a micro SD card for additional storage. I finally had to turn off the finger print scanner. It was constantly forcing me to my backup password for authentication. The camera is very solid and the speakers work very well. This unit does everything I hoped it would do. I jumped two model years from the S4 to the S6 Edge. It is much smaller and more lightweight.
Pros: Bright display, Durable
Cons: battery does not last long enough, need to go back to micro sd cards for more memory
I haven't learned all the features of the phone, but it is easy for me since I'm not all that electronically inclined & to be able to learn a lot of features of this phone so quickly as I am is so fantastic! THANK YOU SO MUCH!
