The "Edge" is somewhat bullshit. You can't program anything useful to the virtual buttons and I don't think you can change the battery either. I got the Galaxy S6 instead and I'm relatively satisfied. The battery life is good, it has good load times and it responds well to touch and voice commands. However, the fingerprint scanner doesn't work worth a shit. But I think I'm going to look at something other than Samsung on my next upgrade. I'm not really happy that they seem to be going in the same direction as the iCrap.

The edge part is pointless. I considered it when looking at my S6 and it made no sense at all.

Agree with Gramps, though my finger print scanner was better after resetting the print and taking another scan. Hardly fails now. Still not quite as good as the one on the Galaxy Tab S2

Every review of the S6 range slates the batt life.

If your phone takes up every second of your spare time the S6 (or pretty much every phone) battery is only good for three or four hours. But if use your phone to text, make a lot phone calls and occasionally check social media or use screen intensive apps, it will easily last from the time you get up to when you go to bed. The S6's screen is what kills the battery quick.

It's not that big. My wife was worried about the iPhone 6+ being too big and now she couldn't imagine using a tiny phone... BTW the iPhone is bigger than the note even though it has a smaller screen... :olo: ...
