Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge Review

Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge is a brilliantly designed Android phone released in 2015, which counts with a big 5.1" display, a very powerful 64 bit Octa-Core processor (they are really a Quad-Core running at 2.1 GHz and another Quad-Core clocking at 1500 MHz), and two cameras, a 16 mega-pixels back facing camera and a 5 mega-pixels front side camera. Is that all? Not at all, it's only the introduction.

Samsung decided to sell this phone with a very fast 64 bits Octa-Core CPU (as a matter of fact they are really a Quad-Core clocking at 2.1 GHz and another Quad-Core speeding at 1.5 gigahertz), bundled in an Exynos 7 Octa 7420 system chip and a large 3 GB of RAM. Graphic rendering often uses a lot of processor time, so it has an additional Mali-T760 MP8 graphics processing unit ticking at 650 MHz to take care of them, leaving the processor free for other tasks. This device has a huge 128 GB internal storage memory and while it doesn't have an SD card slot, it it is more than enough to install hundreds of applications without even thinking about running out of space.

Samsung has made a really good job making this cellphone as lightweight as 4.66 ounces. Samsung is offering the S6 Edge in lots of colors: black, green, white and gold. Regarding its design materials, the S6 Edge is mostly created with Glass and Aluminium, giving this phone a top level look and an extra resistance. This phone just has 5.59" long, but it still manages to hold a 5.1" display. This cellphone is just 0.28 inches thick, making its way into the thinnest phones podium.

This cellphone is equipped with two cameras, a 16 MP back side camera and a 5 megapixels front side camera. the S6 Edge's back side camera lens has an aperture of F1.9 so it can shoot great photos even in poorly lit environments. It can also capture videos in 3840x2160 (4K). The camera also includes lots of cool characteristics like flash, auto-focus, optical image stabilization, fast burst mode, face detection shooting, smile detection shooting, HDR mode and geo tagging.

This phone includes an amazing 2560 x 1440 (Quad HD / 2K) 5.1 inches screen, giving this phone a delightful graphical experience. Its screen uses Super AMOLED capacitive technology, and allows multi-touch gestures.

The S6 Edge comes with an amazing 2600 mAh non-removable battery that provides the S6 Edge a great battery life. An issue to consider is that this cellphone's battery is not removable so you can't throw it away and buy a new one when it begins to get older, even though with so much capacity you will probably replace this cellphone before that becomes an issue.

This phone includes wifi capability (which can be shared with other devices as a mobile hotspot), LTE-A 4G ultra fast data connection and fast 3G internet connection, over HSPA, HSUPA, UMTS and EDGE technologies. This device uses a Nano SIM card for GSM networks.

The S6 Edge also features many cool features like Fingerprint Scanner, Wireless charging compatibility, NFC (to trigger actions, transfer data or make payments by holding your device close to another NFC device or tag), Infrared Transmitter, Bluetooth and GPS Navigation, and multiple sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer, Gyroscope, Barometer and Compass.

This cellphone costs around $ 249, which is similar to other same level cellphones. The S6 Edge is very appropiate for you if you want a cellphone for work, want it to take many pictures, will use it mostly for social networks and internet browsing or will use it as a gamer device.
