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

Have to say, I like the look of the Edge over the normal looking S6.

Having seen what HTC showed earlier, Samsung's onto a winner with both products.
 
128GB Edge, in black of course :D

I'm not bothered by wireless charging but I'll get one dock anyway just for the bedside I guess.

A man with style and flair :D

So our Z3 days are numbered I guess. Nice while they lasted eh?

I need to escape my 4s at some point. It takes about a year to open tomtom now so its time it went! Do you know something - I am keen to see the newest windows phone. Its about time the windows platform got some love!

Speaking of windows phones - is there a new flagship due during MWC? I can't decide what phone I want to keep so I always go back to my 4s. I have problems :( :p

Try as you might you did your best to escape your 4s.

Nice to see you persevering and putting faith in Windows OS. I am not aware of any Windows phones being showcased at the MWC.

We all have problems Dude and the first step is admitting you have one.

Besides you're in good company with AlecR, Space Monkey and a few other members whose names escape me (no offence)

Looked like the first look in for a Samsung phone in years.. Until I saw battery + ppi combination

Will have to pass
Not enough mAh : pixels

That's a bit of a stretch. given that it's a completely new SOC drawing less power and a new screen also drawing less power so in effect it would actually be either the same or better than existing higher mAh Samsung flagships I'd say.

One of the biggest selling points of the Z3 for me was being waterproof but I just can't help but be swayed by the technological advances of the S6 edge. I have a 128GB card in it currently and am using 71GB with 5GB free on internal storage so I simply must go for the 128GB S6 :p

Edit*

In terms of price, it's going to be the same as before, according to the rumours - although it could be a little more expensive given the improved materials used. We're having to say rumours as Samsung hasn't given us anything concrete to work with - but the below information from AndroidPit does hint at some eye-watering prices:

· Samsung Galaxy S6 32 GB: €749 (around £560, $855, AU$1100)
· Samsung Galaxy S6 64 GB: €849 (around £635, $970, AU$1240)
· Samsung Galaxy S6 128 GB: €949 (around £710, $1085, AU$1390)

i hope the Note 5 gets Touch ID like the s6 instead of the swipe :)

will give the s6 ago in a shop but nothing major wanting me to sell my Note 4 right now
 

And that's not the Edge version, so that'll be another £100 or so?

You're still on a 4S? Why?! Just get an iPhone 6 and you'll be happy, best of both worlds.

I'd find it hard to believe it would beat my OPO. It's 1080p with 3100 mAh battery
Problem for me is most battery is sucked by screen and signal
 
Hmm the Oppo might win in that case but we need the tests to confirm! Next few days will be interesting I guess.

Keep an eye on MM Mike19 post S6 release :p
 
I really don't get the whole battery obsession?

I charge my phone every night regardless, I have a charger next to my bed so it's natural to put it on charge when I'm asleep.

Yes it would be nice to last two days "just in case" but those times are very few.

It's things like when I'm out walking, or on a long trip, or just forget my charger.

It's just nice to not have to think about it all the time. It's biggest thing for me really

Iphone 6 is too expensive for what it is (imo) where's the high resolution screen - and the camera is still 8mp!

Neither matters in reality, you'd enjoy owning one (and wouldn't feel the need to change it). You shouldn't get too hung up on specs.

Even so, you could get a 5s or something older, still a major improvement on the 4s which is pretty bad now.

I was never brave enough to drop my Z3 in water to test its waterproof capabilities and I agree with you that the S6 technological advances of the S6 Edge are too great to ignore.

I'm using 81Gb on my 128Gb card and I'm down to 4.6Gb on internal memory so 128Gb version is pretty much a given for me.
