I almost wonder if the green casting on the edge display is the green bezel reflecting onto the display rather than a colour shift? Will need to see what it's like on the other colours really, but I had fancied a green one 
its described in the video, shes viewing a web page that's white but there's a slight green tint to the white on the edge area.
could also explain why there's very little videos of samsung demoing video on the edge as its always on the standard S6.
Ahh okay thanks, I couldn't view the video for some reason on my phone, clicking the image / shot of the video just did nothing

Hopefully Samsung sort the colour-shifting prior to release as I was hoping to get the Edge version.
Apparently this isn't an issue with the Note Edge so there doesn't seem to a technological reason for it.

Doesn't happen in KBHD's video....
1:45....
According to reddit it's not colour shifting but a reflection from the body (Erika uses the green model and gets a green tint on the edges), which makes sense given KBHD uses the white version in the video above and no discolouration can bee seen on white pages.

This is the wierdest, most nitpicking post I have seen in while, rivalling elbows too pointy in it's over the top ness.
A record 20 million pre-orders for these smartphones, 15 million for the S6 and 5 million for the S6 Edge:

I like how fast the fingerprint sensor is!
Yep love it. Great for me as I don't use a pin/lockscreen.
If you have low standards thats your prerogative. But if I was to drop 600 quids on a phone I don't want colour distortion covering 5% of the screen.

Everyone needs a good finger print scanner, it just makes life so much easier. You can also use it for so many apps.

Still leaning towards the normal S6 for this, everytime I see a new video I think "hmm the edge does look nice, but is the extra £100 worth it"..
Maybe will have to wait and see them before I decide.

There may be an active version (dust and water resistant ):

Does anyone know "roughly" how much the 32gb s6 will cost 
Don't like the edge, but think the regular one looks awesome
