Comparison review
The Galaxy S6 has an overall score of 87.4, which is just a bit better than the Galaxy Note Edge's 81.7 general score.

The Samsung Galaxy S6 counts with a little more vivid screen than Galaxy Note Edge, because although it has a quite smaller screen, and they both have an equal resolution of 2560 x 1440, the Samsung Galaxy S6 also counts with a little greater pixel amount in each display inch.
Samsung Galaxy S6 has just a bit better camera than Galaxy Note Edge, and although they both have the same 30 frames per second video frame rates, the same resolution camera in the back, the same video resolution and a same size sensor, the Samsung Galaxy S6 also has a larger diafragm aperture to take better images and videos in low light environments.
The Galaxy S6 has a much bigger memory capacity for games and applications than Galaxy Note Edge, because although it has no SD extension slot, it also counts with 96 GB more internal memory capacity.
