Glass screen protector on the S6 might look whack too as it has 2.5D glass.

2.5D?

Does the display curve slightly on the S6? If so you won't get a full-coverage screen protector.

+1. Had this issue with my brother's iPhone 6... Spigen screen protector looked terrible on there as it sat in the 'middle' rather than edge to edge

If that's the case then those wishing to put screen protectors on will be in for some major disappointment.

Nearly £20 off the S6 Wireless charger in white. I read somewhere that this has a faster charging rate than regular a wireless charger. 1.5A vs 1A.

So i had a look at both phones today and was VERY impressed, they have improved the software significantly and touchwiz is now watered down and a lot closer to stock android. The screen and camera on both seemed great and both felt like better built devices that previous samsung phones. I didn't notice any of the reported colour issues on the bends of the screen on the edge and the videos i played on it seemed fine, it doesnt seem like the edge will have any negative media consumption problems.


I am pretty sure one of these will be my next phone. I prefered the edge as it seemed a bit more 'special' but i don't know how much i'm willing to pay above the standard s6 just for that.

How did the edge feel in the hand?

Cheers for that, don't know whether i'll wait up till midnight but i'll definately check my upgrade option in the morning.

It feels a bit strange but its not uncomfortable or anything, it's just different and I guess you would get used to it pretty quickly

Happened with the iPhone 6 if I remember correctly, there was a queue to get onto the O2 site
