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

lol, glass backed... be amazed if anyone tries to claim that as a positive after all the stick the iPhone 4 had.

And the camera sticks out :/ and i dont see how curved edges are at all functional.

What's with the round menu items as well, could Samsung copy Apple anymore?!

Well this is definitely (the Edge, anyway) Samsung's best design effort yet, and in theory it should feel quite premium.

If they nail all the performance features (battery/camera/speed/etc) then the S6 will be the Android phone to get, no question.

But:

But while Samsung certainly improved upon the Galaxy S5’s design in dramatic ways and upgraded the phone’s technology at the same time with the S6, it didn’t come without cost. Hallmarks of Samsung’s phones, such as removable batteries, microSD card slots, and waterproofing are nowhere to be found on the S6 or S6 Edge. That will likely upset some die-hard users and Samsung loyalists that relied on those features, but it’s clear that Samsung prioritized prioritized the phone’s design and its look and feel over things that appeal to a smaller segment of its customer base. Samsung also trimmed back the software features, claiming that there are 40 percent fewer features in the Galaxy S6 than the S5. Overall, the software feels largely the same as before, however. (It's based on Android 5.0 Lollipop.)
 
Okay that new UI revamp and how fluid stuff looks is impressive and the edge features make sense now.
