1. Packaging and delivery:
The packaging is rather inconspicuous, almost simple, therefore. It consists of white cardboard. Only the lettering S6 edge points to the particular content.
In addition to the device itself is located in the packing the charger, a USB cable, a headset, a quick start guide and a tool to insert the SIM card. If you want a detailed guide that describes all menu items and functions in detail, this takes place on the Samsung website at [...] or can call the hotline at 0180 6 67267864 and get free per device sent a printed manual.
2. The first impression
Once you hold the edge in hand, one is struck by the high-quality workmanship. The housing is matt from a single piece, wrapped in aircraft used aluminum and front and rear with scratch-resistant, reflective Gorilla Glass 4. This results in very beautiful visual effects. Furthermore, the glass touches very good. This is hard to describe, so you try them for yourself. The housing is 142.1 x 70.1 x 7.0mm and an edge length of only 132 grams very light and handy. The only thing negative I noticed is that the camera approximately one millimeter protrudes from the back of the case.
3. The display
Here comes Samsung's proven Super AMOLED technology is used. Here, the pixel light up themselves (self-luminous organic diodes). Thereby, a much higher contrast is possible. The color black is a true black, for example, simply because the respective pixels are turned off. In conventional TFT displays shimmers always easy through the backlight. The colors come with OLED very strong shine. Anyone familiar with the already very good displays of S4 (mini) or S5 (mini), which will still be surprised by the superior brightness and sharpness of the new display. The 5.1 inch display has 2560x1440 pixels namely with and also offers outdoor a surprisingly strong luminosity. The viewing angle stability is very high. Even if you look at the display side, colors and brightness remain unchanged.
The display is also curved right and left, which is a world first.
4. Performance
After the first time it occurred to me at once to the tremendous reaction speed of the touch screen. This is not least and the 64-bit OctaCore owe Android Lollipop processor that is supported by 3 GB of memory. Graphically elaborate games like Dead Trigger 2, Real Racing, Game of Thrones, Temple Run 2 etc. ask for the graphics chip Mali T-760 no challenge here is still much room for improvement, so that with the purchase of an S6 |. S6 Edge a long-term and sustainable investment makes.
5. The Camera
The device has two cameras, each of which is equipped with an aperture F1,9 and therefore even in the dark can still provide very bright bright images. While the front camera dissolves with 5 megapixels and thus Selfies supplies in Bestqualität, provides the 16 MP main camera on the back of the unit an extremely high level of detail. The main camera can incidentally also be activated by pressing twice. The aperture of the main camera is to be started with the home button and in less than one second ready for use
In addition to auto focus and flash are numerous modes such as Panorama, Slow Motion, Time Lapse HDR much more possible. The chapters of the manual, which treats the camera, includes no fewer than 15 pages. Under the said link interested can call it. The video resolution can be proud of: This is 4K UHD (3840 x 2160 pixels) @ 30fps.
All in all it can be said that one in the bag no separate digital camera longer needed with the S6 and S6 edge because images are just fantastic.
6. The power supply:
The included AC adapter has a quick charge function. After just 10 minutes of charging, you can use the S6 edge about 4 hours. A complete battery charge took me less than 2 hours, which is a considerably short charging time.
If you are traveling and very little battery power has, the device offers different power. Very interesting is the so-called. Ultra-energy-saving mode, in which only the most important functions are active, ie telephony, SMS, etc. The screen is in this mode, except for a few fields completely black. Here, another advantage of AMOLED screens comes into play: the most pixels are turned off, which reduces power consumption dramatically again.
Generally, I have learned that the S6 without power saving function Battery entirely by esteems one day of intensive use of the appliance. Since the device is still new and I play around the whole day, I can still bring no objective battery life in experience currently course.
7. establishment of smartphones
Samsung offers a free software called Smart Switch with which you can transfer data from the old to the new smartphone without any problems. Furthermore, you can back up the data with the software of its smart phones on the PC or restore from the PC. Samsung has set up an extensive website this: [...]
8. Smart Manager
Very great is also the pre-installed app called Smart Manager, with one battery consumption, disk space, memory, and device security has in view. You can for example see whether a particular app consumes much battery power.
9. criticisms:
An objective test course includes criticisms: These are firstly the non-removable battery and the lack of SD card slot, and secondly, the used SIM-card size: Nano-Sim. Personally, I think it would be better if a normal standard SIM or micro-SIM would be used, but this is probably not feasible for reasons of space. For me it is therefore called once to ask the provider for a new SIM, because the old one is too big.
Also, I would have found it nice when a device in this price range a detailed printed manual would be accompanied. Luckily, you can, as already mentioned above, call at 0180 6 67267864 and free one get sent when you call on the hotline IMEI and S / N of the unit.
10. Conclusion:
I personally can S6 edge all those recommended unconditionally, looking with their smartphone not only calls, SMS messages and from and would like to briefly go to the Internet, but a replacement for your desktop PC, your game console, digital camera and your iPhone. In addition, the design of the S6 edge is unbeatable.
