Smartphone Galaxy S6 Edge – the top of the company’s product line. In addition to top technical characteristics he received and unique display. “Times” to find out how successful the new flagship of the company.
Appearance and ergonomics
Compare appearance S6 Edge with anything hard. Perhaps only with inverted YotaPhone : The front panel has the same bend, and the back cover is completely flat, except for the protruding camera. However, the company’s proprietary design features immediately apparent: it is the characteristic oval button below the screen and frame, bordering the case. In S6 Edge she finally really metal, but not silvered plastic.
The unit itself is very light and thin, which is why it is practically not feel any hand or in your pocket. But because of the use of glass in front and behind the cabinet was very slippery. In addition, the rear panel is very easily soiled, and if you do not want to put up with fingerprints, it is necessary to choose the white version of the device on which they are not visible.
Due to the fact that the display is bent at the ends of the device, the frame in these areas noticeably thinner.
Together with the flat back cover is may cause some discomfort. Many of those who took the machine to see pointed out that the device is in the hand somewhat unnatural.
But in general, to the ergonomics of the device no complaints, and even bent the display does not cause problems. Random taps on the screen at the ends contrary to expectations, was not. The only negative – in some applications, in which menu you need to pull from the left side, it has to be pulling in the literal sense: the end of the screen is at the opposite end (right-handed), so the thumb has to pull through the smartphone.
Display
The crown of creation engineers Samsung – curved at the ends of the screen of your smartphone. He looks quite unusual. However, it is practically undistorted image. Bending only noticeable in those cases when the text extends from the edge of the display: in situ bending letters thinner than the rest of the screen.
However, on a bend of the glass itself is very much glare, and because watching the video you will inevitably pursue two white stripes at the top and bottom of the image.
For this reason, the smartphone can hardly be called ideal for film fans.
The color rendition and image quality pleasing. Displays Samsung has long ceased to “erode” the eyes of excessive brightness, and now the picture is just as pleasant to the eye. In many ways, this contributes to the display with a resolution of 2560 x 1440 pixels.
Hardware
Destruction. This is exactly what makes the Galaxy S6 with its competitors in synthetic tests. In the test AnTuTu S6 Edge scored a phenomenal 70 thousand. Points. That’s more than 20 thousand more than shown in the same test Galaxy Note 4 that weak language does not turn to call. In “Gazeta.ru” was not yet as powerful testing device.
At the moment (April 2015) to restart the Galaxy S6 impossible.
The tasks that can challenge the smartphone, not yet available in principle: any game it will start without any problems and it was everything else will also broadcast the image on the 4K-display via Wi-Fi in real time.
Works smartphone on its own eight-processor Samsung Exynos 7420. The company refused to use Qualcomm chipsets and, judging by the results of tests made the right decision. It was a risk for Samsung, as the previous processors of stability of work did not differ.
But one claim to the “hardware” of the smartphone is still there – it’s a fingerprint reader, built-in button “Home”. Yes, he went to work significantly better than the Galaxy S5, but still triggered twice in the fifth or sixth. After a while it becomes annoying, and fingerprint lock is switched off and never thought of her.
Another small minus – is the lack of memory card slots. The device is available in three versions – with hard drives of 32, 64 and 128 GB.
system
It works on Android 5.0 smartphone with a proprietary add-TouchWiz. For the first time in a long time interface from Samsung does not seem heavy and not overloaded with obscure settings. He is extremely simple in visual terms, and in terms of use.
The system has received improvements to the curved screen. Thus, in the night mode on the screen is off on one of the folds of time and displays notifications. Print the information and forcibly – spending here and there along the fold finger. For this part of the screen is a special widget that can display updates in social networks, news headlines and quotation of securities.
The system also supports dvuhokonny mode. Moreover, unlike other smartphones, and it starts working with a large number of different applications. For example, you can open the mail application and at the same time to work with him in a PDF-document with just one touch of a button. No complicated manipulations to do this is not necessary.
Camera
The smartphone uses a 16-megapixel digital camera module, capable of capturing video in 4K (3840 x 2160 pixels). Camera works very fast, the pictures are instantaneous, which is not surprising in such a “cancer.”
The photo quality is excellent, to find fault with it can not be.
Unfortunately, this is not true of pyatimegapikselnoy front camera, which received wide-angle lens . For example, images obtained from it “zamylennye” and ragged lines, their quality is difficult to call. But thanks to the optics group portraits on the front chamber can accommodate more people. If this is not enough, you can enable a special mode that allows you to turn your smartphone, and then he will stick together panoramic self.
Hours
Unfortunately, there is not a smartphone champion by the end of the working day for moderately active use of it survives with difficulty. All the matter in the battery capacity of 2600 mAh, which is clearly not enough.
Fortunately, charging your smartphone is not just fast, very fast.
C zero to 100% battery from the electrical outlet replenished per hour.
In addition, the S6 Edge, as well as in normal S6 , built-in wireless charging, which uses the standard Qi. With a smartphone, you can use any charger that standard. In our case, the machine worked perfectly with the charging stand by Nokia.
Summary
Galaxy S6 Edge – amazing device, largely because of the appearance that stands out from the crowd due to the curved screen. It’s nice that Samsung did not make it a key function of the device, as in the case of Galaxy Note Edge . The display is just a nice addition to an already excellent smartphone.
Despite the small drawbacks of the device are exclusively positive emotions, even the most ardent opponents of the company’s products and smartphones Android.
Not at all without exaggerating, S6 Edge can now be considered one of the best champions in 2015. Only depressing its price: pre-order the smartphone with 32 GB of internal memory – 60 thousand. Rubles. But the ruble exchange rate in the company can not do anything. However, the company was encouraged that sales to start on April 16 price may be adjusted in relation to strengthen Russian currency.
