With or without a rounded display, the smartphones from the Galaxy S6-series are equipped with the latest hardware components and the Galaxy S6 Edge once again shows how innovative the Koreans can be.

Good display; Sophisticated materials; Great build quality; Thin and light; Fast SoC; Great camera; Good WLAN signal; High Bluetooth range; Great voice quality; Wireless charging; Quick charge

Storage not expandable; Neither MHL nor DLNA; No IP certification anymore; Mediocre GPS accuracy; Poor headset; Weak speaker

When the Galaxy S6 and 6S Edge debuted in the Spring of 2015, they represented a dramatic departure for Samsung. Gone was the utilitarian plastic build of every Galaxy S past; in its place, glass and aluminum alloy, and, in the case of the S6 Edge, a uniquely curved screen.

The Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge's wraparound screen transforms an already great phone into Samsung's best-looking handset; Ever

That supercool design comes with a big price tag, and the screen doesn't deliver any real killer apps; Like the regular S6, the Edge doesn't support swappable batteries or expandable storage

Since the release of the Galaxy S5, Samsung has been restyling itself to better compete in the current market. We've seen its new design-focused philosophy coalesce with each new product launch, culminating in the Galaxy S6 and S6 edge.

No microSD support; Non-removable battery; Price; Rear camera lottery; Worse battery life than the S5 in heavy workloads

The Galaxy S6 Edge is a more elegant version of the Galaxy S6, a device that's become one of the most handsome phones on the market in its own right. Together, the two phones represent a massive aesthetic upgrade over every Galaxy phone that's come before them.

Gorgeous design; Spectacular QHD display; Exceptionally fast performance; One of the best cameras on the market

No water or dust resistance; Battery life is average for this class; Front-facing camera is too; Curved screen has little practical value

The Galaxy S6 Edge fails to match the performance of its twin, the standard Galaxy S6

Elegant and premium build; Gorgeous display; Better camera features and performance; Much-improved fingerprint reader; Quick charging; Supports both wireless charging standards

Uncomfortable to hold; Curved screen offers no value; Worse battery life than standard S6; No longer waterproof; Non-removable battery; No memory expansion; Gets noticeably hot when pushed; Tinny speaker sound

The Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge is a gorgeous, powerful smartphone, but you're paying a pretty steep premium for curved glass.

Standout design; Premium materials; Excellent performance

Expensive; Edge design doesn't bring useful functions

The Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge is better than its predecessor, the Galaxy S5, in some points: it is thinner, has a better frontal camera, and faster CPU. But it also has some throwbacks, like the USB 2.0 connection and the fact it is not water resistant.

Crisp screen with very high resolution; Slim and light; Great design; Excellent performance; 5 MP front camera; 16 Mp rear camera; Capture videos at 4K or at Full HD with 60 fps; Supports 4G LTE; Supports NFC; Fast battery charge; Supports unlocking with fingerprint

Expensive (on unlocked versions; Does not support memory card; Not water resistant as its predecessor; Offers USB 2.0 connection; and not USB 3.0 as its predecessor

S6 Edge+ and the Note 5, Samsung's Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge still deliver the kind of excellent performance its users enjoy, making this pick one of the best smartphones available.

We've had a land line with CenturyLink for 13 years. Over the last 5 years it's worked about 75% of the time. I don't really like cell phones, but enough is enough. My wife has a similar Samsung Galaxy, so I got this one, called AT&T, They over- nighted the SIM, plugged it in and I'm talking.
