thats been on there for a week or 2, but yeh a placeholder

If you search S6 then it will say at the top "notify me when this goes to pre-order, which is amazon's own listing for what it looks like they will be selling.

Still wondering why its taking so long..

Every email I get causes a little surge of hope

Looks like there will be a theme authoring tool released:

*Keeps posting every few hours to make Thep02 go on an emotional rollercoaster*

Luckily my S5 is still going strong after a wipe and refresh so I'm not that bothered to wait a bit, although after handling one I am getting a bit Antsy to get my pre-order in!

Guys for anyone who's ordered a 32gb edge from .de how much have you paid? Comes up as £654 in gbp, is that about right?

Should be around £630 (861 Euros)

Don't tick the pay in your own currency box.

Won't you get rinsed with a poor exchange rate though if you pay in euros?

All depends on the card you are using. I wouldn't I'm using Halifax clarity card, no transaction fees and current exchange rates.

I'm leaning towards an edge in green but little info on a release for it.

I have to say, some of these drop tests are impressive. the Walnut one is brilliant

tried out the S6 and S6 edge today at the Samsung store near Oxford Street. First thing you notice is touchwiz is actual responsive for once, like I opened apps and it just launched, everything was nice and smooth, camera was extremely fast, pictures where good. Size wise it felts well, its a tad slippery, edge is really nice for swiping in but the display goes funny when it starts to wrap, thing the S6 is a better investment.

Apart form Touchwiz still looking a bit bad its a really solid phone, that and battery life are the only worries. Must say the speed and camera will wreck ever other android phone, and even the iPhone.

Was time-travel was an unmentioned feature?

Why is his S6E 26 months in the past?

 

[azibux1]

Are they going to say Galaxy S6 / Galaxy S6 Edge on the rear like that? Or is that just on the demo units?

Also for those interested, see below for details from the seller of the Spigen cases with regards to the two mic holes...

Many thanks for the pictures!
We would like to confirm that that Samsung makes different phones for different network companies, and some phones come with 2 dot type cut outs - this is made on purpose to make sure that case is compatible with all phone versions.

Which networks?

I can confirm that some international phones in Asia have a second cut out. If you are not happy with this case you can return it back to us. However, we can confirm that this extra cut out does not interfere with functionality of the UK phones. Sorry for any inconvenience caused.

Seems very odd that they are designed differently, but oh well

When you search for 'samsung galaxy s6 edge' on the rainforest the it no longer gives the link about being emailed when available for preorder.
wonder if that means preorders are happening today.
