Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge

 

Design and Display

With the Galaxy S6 Edge, Samsung successfully jettisoned the tag of being the only smartphone maker with a plastic-body flagship device. The phone, just like the regular Galaxy S6, marked a noticeable departure from their predecessors in terms of the better-quality materials used.

It has a metal frame and glass rear. Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge is unique with its curved screen. The two edges of the screen are slightly-curved, unlike Galaxy Note Edge which has only one curved edge. The slopes of the screen are also less defined and gentler than the edges.

The Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge sports a 5.1-inch Super AMOLED display with QHD resolution of 2560 x 1440 pixels and an amazing 577 pixels per inch. The screen is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 4.
