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

[xGBHxPegasus]

I was thinking that the Edge was just pointless but looking at them side by side it looks so much better than the normal S6. Gah, might have too go for that.

Same, looks slightly nicer. Although I will see what prices are.

 

[Fallen god]

Yep I reckon the black will look pretty nice when you see it in the shops.

No SD slot is a bummer though.

Yeah, hopefully they have 32gb, 64gb , 128gb version. 16gb in 2015 is a crime to be honest.

I've been wondering, how do you actually use one of these 'edge' phones without always touching something on the edge of the screen by accident?

May have palm rejection or you have to hold in a certain way. Or it could just be an annoying mess :/

regardless of whether its plastic or metal, the whole "silver band" round the edge is getting old and imo never looked good. hoped it would go with this release but looks unlikely!

Quite like the Edge in black!

 

[TripleT]

Yer same, edge in black, will wait to see prices though!

Just thought, screen protectors will be awful on the edge!

I tried a screen protector on my HTC Desire, it went badly so I removed it, and from that point onwards I've not bothered. I'm sure my luck will run out, but I've never had a scratch (there are probably micro-scratches on them which won't help in bright light, but nothing visible to the naked eye).

I did have a crack on the glass on my S3 (just on the bottom corner, and didn't make it as far as the screen nor affect use) but I'm fairly sure a screen protector wouldn't have helped anyway.

Screen protectors are always awful
