Samsung continues to rely on a combination of categorical outstanding performance and stunning appearance – and wins. GALAXY S6 Edge + – this is a great device, it does not want to let go, but somehow Samsung decided not to make the perfect smartphone and added to it a couple of flaws
⇣ Content
I remember the original GALAXY S6 Edge we liked. So much so that we even gave him one of our virtual awards – for “innovation and design.” The device really was very steep: a powerful, advanced and, most importantly, very, very beautiful. In the world of Android-smartphone are, frankly, are not as often as we would like. Perhaps, like the machine and top leadership of Samsung, since the Koreans dare to release an updated version almost immediately after the original. Before S6 Edge + «intermediate” (without changing the serial number) devices in the family of Samsung GALAXY S was not – different modifications of the same gadget does not count.

The most important features. In the versions with a plus sign, and the original four main differences: a much larger screen size (5.7 inches vs. 5.1 inches), more RAM (4 GB to 3 GB), fatter battery (3000 mAh vs. 2600 mAh h), and – suddenly – no infrared port at S6 Edge +. Where and why gone infrared transmitter – is not clear, leave it on the conscience of the manufacturer. The rest of the devices are similar: they have the same set of cameras, they work on the same system-on-chip – so it really is an update rather than a full-fledged new flagship.
⇡ # Appearance and ergonomics
The most simple description of the exterior GALAXY S6 Edge + is as follows: the original S6 Edge, who grew up a few millimeters in length and width. The proportions of the body is the same, and learn the device features proprietary Samsung smartphones will not be difficult; however, the gadget has become significantly more. And it’s definitely a two-edged sword: on the one hand, a large curved screen looks really cool, but on the other – to use the device with one hand is not very convenient, has to move the gadget in the palm, to reach all four corners of the screen.

In the event that the smartphone user great in the current version of Samsung’s proprietary membrane Android – TouchWiz – stashed some software tricks. If necessary, you can temporarily “compress” the images three times by pressing the central button. All context menus – for example, volume control and notification bar – while are displayed too small “window».
In addition, the possibility of reducing and shifting closer to the edges of the shell virtual keyboard . She wondered to simplify typing, however, press the large button is much more convenient than a little – at least from a subjective point of view. However, by modern standards, the dimensions have gadget pretty standard, and get used to them can be – it would wish.
The extra space within the enclosure will not only keep a small thickness, and even quite a bit of it to reduce – from 7 to 6.9 millimeters. Due to the rounded edges of the screen device looks even thinner than it actually is – this is one of the causes of the very wow-effect, which always occurs in those who first takes S6 Edge + hands. It looks machine is very cool – it’s one of the most beautiful smartphone company Samsung, and perhaps one of the most impressive devices on Android as a whole.
Samsung GALAXY S6 Edge + – front panel
The body of the smartphone is still made of aluminum, while the front and rear panels are covered with tempered glass Corning Gorilla Glass 4. It is resistant to minor scratches from keys and coins, but may break even if dropped from low altitude. We crash test, of course, was not satisfied, however, complaints about the fragility of the glass on the internet enough, so that the device will have to handle carefully. Glass here oleophobic (grease repellent) coating that prevents it from quickly overgrown with fingerprints. Housing MARKS AND impractical, pristine beauty of the device is quickly lost.

From the point of view of ergonomics of the gadget does not differ from other units of the company. At the top of the front of the eye is the front, a 5-megapixel camera, earpiece, sensitive areas of the sensors and LED missed events. Below the display is a hardware key “Home”, framed by a metal edging. It is integrated biometric sensor that works very accurately – during testing were not false positives, the host device recognize the finger always on the first try. Nearby are two touch-sensitive buttons, equipped with lighting, – “The list of open applications” and “Back».

The side edges remain sharp little device, like the original version, but they do not dig into the palm – hold the device in his hands nice. Although on the stamp pane glass front and rear, gadget tries to escape from the host and does not slip out of hand. Despite a significant increase in diagonal screen, Edge + hardly gained weight, he scored a total of 21 grams (as if he had a soul): S6 Edge weighs 132 range, S6 Edge + – 153 grams.

Location of buttons and connectors from the unit, to be honest, a little strange. The hardware power button device put to the right end, and volume control buttons – on the left, while they are shifted closer to the top of the unit to press themselves “lay” under the thumb and middle finger of the right hand, respectively. The “small» S6 Edge was also – and there it was really comfortable. Here you have to reach to the keys: I would like to have all the keys are shifted closer to the center of the side faces. But that’s not all.
Universal 3.5mm jack is on the bottom, which is not always convenient – if, say, listening to music with headphones, it is necessary to put the device in your pocket, “upside down” . In this respect there is no single opinion, but personally the author audio jack on the top of familiar and sweeter. Also at the bottom of the interface is Micro-USB 2.0. At Edge +, by the way, as other family devices S6, no support for MHL, which is somewhat strange for most of the company’s flagship smartphone. Also on the lower end of the slot taken out tiny external speaker, at the sight of which would never think that this is the speaker in the machine is quite loud. Slot for Nano-SIM-card is on the top.

The main 16 megapixel camera smartphone protrudes from the housing. It is unpleasant only from an aesthetic point of view – in practice, this is no problem. Its objective is framed by massive metal piping, so you can not worry about that the front lens is scratched, when the device is on the “back.” Next to the camera is an LED flash and strap. Housing at the device, as befits a flagship, not folding. The device exists in four colors: gold, black, white and gray. Compiled great gadget – a lack of rigidity in the structure is not felt at all. But the label on the rear panel is still peel oh so easy.
