Andrea Ferrario: This is a review that focuses mainly on the use of the smartphone. The full review with test results due out in the coming weeks.

 
 

Samsung has hit the mark with the Galaxy S6 Edge, a phone that is liked both the public and the critics. Although it appears that sales are not quite live up to expectations, it seems that this model with the curved screen is more willing than the standard, which itself costs a little ‘less. One thing that surprised us all, considering that the Galaxy Note Edge did not go very well in terms of sales.

 
 
 
 

In the house of Samsung, then, have seen fit to repeat that success with a larger model, and here is the Galaxy S6 + Edge, released along with the Galaxy Note 5. With a Screen 5.7-inch , the GS6 Edge + is the size of the Notes 5, but renunciation of the pen in favor of the curved screen.

On the following pages we will see if it is indeed a problem.
