*** The Official Samsung Galaxy S6/Edge Thread ***

TBH there's no reason to put UK FW on it. German ROM will work just fine and will probably get the updates quicker.

Its not even a German ROM, its an EU rom. Just select english on the start-up wizard and its no different to a UK version.

So jealous of you guys! Very disappointed with Samsung retail that they have delayed until 24th April.

Anyone know where I can get a sim free black 64gb edge quicker?

Both CPW and Samsung online have stock, but you will be paying the full whack.

There is no option for a sim free black edge on CPW

Cool thanks

I spoke to Vodafone this morning, apparently there's limited stock (S6 Edge) and I'll be getting mine next week. Meh.

What day did you order on?

Has anyone got 64GB/128GB stock or will we be waiting until the end of the month for these?

Just received my Edge from EE and damn is it fast. Build quality is great and just feels right when it's in your hands.

I ordered on the 2nd April - 64GB in Gold.

Nice! Completely scratch free? I'm guessing you've seen the thread on XDA? See below if not:

My 64GB Edge is being delivered today (Vodafone)... Not sure if you're talking about in-store only though?

In-store or online, Samsung only seem to have the 32GB versions, others are expected in 4 weeks including the standard version.

They should be reserving phones for their own stores imo, not a great experience going to a Samsung shop on launch and all they have are 32GB standard models for £599.99.

They're queuing for it:

Love how they mock Apple for this, and literally copied what they do, Samsung is a funny company.

Same view here. Apparently I was notified of the estimated availability upon purchase but I don't recall seeing that date. When you call up the online store they are next to useless and do not bother to apologize for the delay despite the carriers receiving stock several weeks earlier!

Eh? It's a T-Mobile shop that customers are queuing outside of....nothing to do with Samsung...

And what are they queueing for , and who are the reps in blue samsung jackets .

Also battery life looks good, just had a poke around XDA.

Lots off people reaching 5hour SOT which is really good, and people quoted the over night drain has being 2% which is a nice improvement over other Android devices.

I take it back. Just been to CPW and they wouldn't sell me an Edge off contract.

Went into the Three shop on Oxford St. and asked if they had the S6 Edge - they initially said no, but then offered me one of the pre-orders they were holding! Awesome staff there!
