Rating – 9.5 / 10

S6 edge comes with innovative design, superb build quality and fantastic screen, performance. It’s supercharging feature make it easier and quicker to charge the battery .Camera quality is awesome and way better than other smartphones in market. It also have the toughest glass on its screen (Gorilla glass 4).Some pictures and user experience collected from different websites is given below.

1.   Pros: awesome looks, light weight, smooth and silky touch, front camera is best feature, headphone good, display is awesome clear, all latest apps already installed cons: speaker is not too loud, little expensive but worth to buy overall: Family recommends to buy this phone and to be Alive with NOW is NEXT.. Here it is NEXT

2.   It is excellent. ..its functions are awesome especially it's camera and it's Internet speed is so good.

3.   The phone is awesome, especially the edge! Crisp and wonderful picture quality, new Touch Wiz UI, easy access to features... all are great. The price is also reasonable for the quality, value for money!!.

4.   The phone is simply AWESOME & Yes Samsung did create a MASTERPIECE. Everything is Flawless in this phone. Love the display CRYSTAL CLEAR & RAZOR SHARP.

5.   Amazing phone and its various new features makes it the best in the price range. Phone heats up a little bit, but heard there is an update which i have yet to receive.

6.   First I was really excited to buy this phone as it really beautiful looking phone and yes I bought this phone on first day it self when it launch.
From first day it self i am facing problem 
1) Heating issue (it get heats like IRON :P)
2) Battery life is pathetic (7-8 hours max)
3) even after 3 GB ram it gets hanged couple of time.

I am sure these points are very important for any user while buying phone.

7.   Even though I love & live Samsung, here are some of my major disappointments with the new Samsung Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge.

1. NO MHL 3 to HDMI support.

2. NO USB 3 / 3.1 & USB type C.

3. NO user replaceable Battery.

4. NO Micro SD card slot.

5. NO IP67 Dustproof or waterproof.

6. NO Glove mode for increasing touchscreen sensitivity.

7. NO LED indicator notification MENU. Just On or Off option.

8. Smaller Battery

9. NO Temp & humidity sensor

10. Ever increasing size. S4 was just 136mm in lenght and was very compact and convenient. S6 is 8mm longer at 143+mm with marginal increase in screen size.

11. It is clear from various drop tests that S6 is not as durable as most Samsung phones in the past.

12. No way to sort apps in the app drawer. Only an edit option to manually sort each and every app!! And, No way to move entire app drawer pages for arrangement.

Hope Samsung incorporates these features in the upcoming Note 5 and S7.
