Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge Review

Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge is a high-end phone launched some years ago, in 2015, provisioned with an extremely powerful 64 bit Octa-Core processor (actually, there is a Quad-Core running at 2.1 gigahertz and an extra Quad-Core at 1500 megahertz), a pretty large 5.1" multi touch screen, a 16 MP back camera and a 5 mega-pixels front camera.

Samsung decided to sell this phone with a Exynos 7 Octa 7420 system chip, which holds a high performance Octa-Core CPU (they are really a Quad-Core at 2.1 GHz and a Quad-Core running at 1.5 gigahertz) and a huge 3 GB RAM memory. Graphic rendering usually uses a lot of CPU time, so it uses an additional Mali-T760 MP8 graphics processing unit speeding at 650 MHz to unload the processor. This phone counts with an awesome 128 GB internal storage and even though it doesn't come with an SD memory card expansion slot, it it is more than enough to install hundreds of apps and even the largest games available nowadays without having to worry about how much memory is left.

Samsung has made a great job making the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge weight just 4.66 oz. This device is just 5.59 inches long, but it's able to fit a a 5.1 inches display. Being just 0.28" thick,this cellphone is incredibly slim and stilized. The S6 Edge body design combines Glass and Aluminium, giving it a top level look.
