Even after the official presentation of the second smartphone by Samsung with a curved display – model Galaxy S6 Edge, we are willing to share their experiences of working with such a screen on Phablet Galaxy Note Edge. The latter came to us for a test in a couple of hours with a smart Gear S, which greatly embellished and transformed the process of operation of the tube. Read more in the review.

Sensors – Samsung Galaxy Note Edge

Both devices are presented in this review are unique. Samsung Galaxy Note Edge – this is a smartphone with a screen diagonal of 5.6 inches which the right side of the display has a slight bend width of 160 pixels. Gear S – is a smart watch with a curved 2-inch screen and a host of useful functions, which we discuss below.

Let’s start with yet more smartphones. Immediately recall that detailed test hardware and ideologically similar, but not as pathos Note 4, we have already done and repeat capabilities will not. Talk about exceptional detail unique to Galaxy Note Edge.

Be overlooked or confused banal test smartphone with other devices simply impossible. On the one hand – on the left, the tube quite common. On the other – right original. It is with this end designers and engineers of Samsung extended bright and contrast display with 2560 x 1440 resolution (Quad HD) has 160 pixels, but at an angle. Thus obtaining an asymmetrical design, and, therefore, different forms of the metal rim that goes around the loop. For the record, I note that the screen is covered with glass Corning Gorilla Glass 3 and the density of pixels per inch of his unprecedented for many 525.

In my opinion, in this unique handset has become not so much smoothly pull-down display how much functionality that the Samsung offered him withdraw. The user can use it to display the icons of frequently used applications, system information, weather, or virtually any other data. Socket is configured in the corresponding menu. Is a function of strip-loading third-party developers.

More than a week of testing showed that the transfer of standard labels from the bottom of the standard for Android screen on the side panel simplifies orientation in the tube. In this case, the bottom of the screen displayed links to the applications menu and calls. And if you’re working with a program and you receive a call, then it is possible to instantly answer directly from the sub-screen without stopping to surf the web or work with your calendar or notes. As fast you can read and an SMS-message, turn on the flashlight, voice recorder, open the virtual ruler or timer.

In the “curved screen,” I also interested in the section “Night Watch”. After the activation, white font in your specified period of time on the curved part of the display shows the clock and temperature. It turns out sort of a night prompter.

Another couple of useful upgrades, improved compared with Note 4 and those that I certainly said – work with S Pen stylus mode and two active windows. In the video footage, we have seen innovations in more detail. And if briefly, the improved features handwriting and the ability to customize the transition between work and windows when operating in “Napoleon.”

And finally, the important, but not as unique opportunities tube. Inside the case under the removable battery housed hardware stuffing, based on a 4-core Qualcomm Snapdragon processor 805 at 2.7 GHz, Adreno 420 graphics chip and 3GB RAM. Thanks to them, a smartphone copes with the most productive games and applications, and easily loses 4K videos. For the latter, you will need a third-party player.

Internal memory of 32 GB will not last long, especially since it is available to the user from a total of 24 GB. Expand the storage can be due to memory cards up to 128 GB or via USB-OTG interface.

In this case, the speaker Galaxy Note Edge plays the sound clean and loud, and the stock battery will be enough for 12 hours of watching Full HD movies or 2 days of work with a tube with an average load. Here is just a maximum brightness of the screen it is worth set at 60-70%, and not very often use the camera flash. In the extreme case, by the way, and provides power saving mode.

Also pleased that through the use of Samsung Galaxy Note Edge Technology Adaptive Fast Charging & Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0 can activate rapid charging and charge the phone by 50% in just 30 minutes. One clarification – this is only possible through the charger supplied.

The user has access to the battery. It is located under the back cover, the texture is very similar to the skin and pearlescent. There also was a place for a slot microSIM-cards and memory cards. Remove the insert and the last not turn off the machine.

It is worth saying that the speaker put to the back of the body, and microphones, of which there are three, scattered on the sides. In addition, the lower edge placed microUSB connector, and the top 3.5 mm audio jack and an infrared port for controlling consumer electronics.

Placed on the back of the flash, the camera unit, and a fingerprint scanner. If you compare it to the one we saw on the Galaxy S5, it is now “overgrown” additional functionality and is able to change the level of UV radiation and oxygen levels in the blood.

Separately, I note the quality of photos and videos of the main 16 megapixels. camera. This smartphone uses a matrix EXMOR RS is Sony with integrated optical stabilization. Sample photos in the gallery below.

The front camera of 3.7 megapixels. will be sufficient in order to ensure a decent quality video calls. It allows you to capture video even in QHD-resolution. Yet Full HD at this resolution seemed more acceptable ratio “weight roller” / “quality”. In addition, the user is a feature panoramic self.

Pros:

• Unique design;
• 5.6 inch QHD-display;
• Loud and clear dynamics;
• Excellent autonomy; powerful “iron” and high performance;
• Capabilities of the camera;
• Superior One S Pen functionality mode and two windows.

Cons:

• The power button on the top.

Smart Clock Gear S became the first product in its class, which received a quality curved display. When you dress them on hand, you feel comfort and elaborate forms, which follows the curve of the hand. Housing material plastic strap – silicone. Selection and installation length of the last takes a couple of seconds. On the test we got to the device in white, the market is also an option available in black.

At the bottom of the clock provided pad for the charger, sensor control of heart rate and a slot for cards nanoSIM under tight cap.

On top of a metal frame isolated large 2-inch display hours. Frame above and below the screen are impressive, but when the last lights, there is a feeling that this is how it should be. In fact, the watch itself is not small, but rather thin. On every hand, they look different and important role is played by the style of dress, which gives preference to the user.

Pressing the button below the display causes the clock face. At its discretion, you can select analog or digital presentation of information that will be complemented by active labels. By clicking on the temperature or number with the number of missed messages you will transfer to the appropriate sub-menu.

It is important to note that the software component platform allows you to upload new dials and collapsible construction itself. The housing is separated from the strap without much effort, but it is held firmly.

Just to see the time, built-in accelerometer and gyroscope device to help identify the moment when you raises his hand and includes a display for 7 seconds. Convenient, but does not always work.

Getting the smart hours carousing especially nowhere, but at the same time has everything you need.

1. Reading the messages received via SMS, email, Google+ and other mesentery, and control calls.

2. Quick Contacts.

3. Parameter menu with shortcuts.

4. Weather widget.

5. Remote control of multimedia content downloaded to your smartphone.

6. S Health – setting and viewing of sensor data: statistics pedometers and the parameters of your sleep, control of heart rate and the intensity of ultraviolet radiation, as well as work in training mode.

7. Reading news feed.

8. Calendar of events and schedule.

9. Navigator, Alarms, and Gallery.

In my opinion, this is more than enough. Nice work with the interface, it is easy and intuitive. If you drag the bottom-up – open the main menu. Reverse movement translates into one action back. Basic settings and download new applications through the application Gear Manager on a smartphone.

An important advantage of the test is Device Features a large number of supported wireless modules and interfaces. Gear S – is a complete phone from which you can call and write text messages. In the hours can be recorded asset support 3G, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth. If the need for an active sim card is not present, it can be disabled and thus reduce battery consumption. Built-in vibration, by the way, you will never miss an important contact, even at the most inopportune moment – the program has a function template response by SMS. But the protection against water and dust IP67 class allows you to not only wash your hands in this watch, but even swim.

Samsung Gear S is not deprived and function S Voice, however, above the company still needs to work – not always, you can understand each other correctly.

If we talk about autonomy, the built-in clock battery 300 mAh me enough for two days. Is charged to 100%, it is just over 3 hours via a special base. Last also acts as an external battery, the capacity is 350 mAh.

Pros:

• A full-fledged smartphone with the ability to send text messages;
• A plurality of sensors accounting exercise and health monitoring;
• A sufficient number of applications, including games;

Cons:

• Support for a limited number of devices;
• Absence of the chamber;

Findings

Summing up the two-week operation Note Edge and Gear S, with confidence I can say only one thing – technology is changing and improving, and bold experiments companies, including Samsung, make our lives more interesting and brighter.

Both devices are attractive in appearance, technology and software are perfect and far ahead of its competitors operating time. Of course, they are expensive, but their total value is between USD 1,100 In my opinion, 50% of this amount you pay for housing and hardware stuffing. Another half – for the impressions that you experience, with such a technologically advanced product.

South Korean technology giant Samsung announced the start of mass production of 14-nm mobile processors. According to the company, the new development shows a marked increase in productivity, as well as another reduction in power consumption compared to the previously mastered 20-nm process technology.

The new processor was named Exynos 7 Octa – recently it was under this name began to promote a 64-bit processor Exynos 5433, set in the flagship planshetofone GALAXY Note 4 and the tech machine company GALAXY Note Edge. A feature of the new processor is not only the 64-bit architecture, but also the 14-nm process technology, and the use of three-dimensional transistor technology FinFET.

The use of transistors in the bulk structure was developed in conjunction with the beginning of the 2000s, and is now an innovative solution is ready for mass production. The use of these technologies has allowed to make a novelty, as noted by Samsung, 20% faster and 30% more performance than the previous architecture that used the Korean technology giant.

“We expect that our production of 14-nm mobile processors will have a positive impact on the growth of the mobile industry, allowing you to further improve the performance of the newest smartphones,” – said the executive vice president of sales and marketing for Samsung Gabsu Khan (Gabsoo Han).

Samsung said the appearance of these processors in the line of smartphones this year. Is expected to become the first smartphone GALAXY S6 and S Edge, which will be announced in a separate event March 1, 2015 as part of MWC 2015.

The new development is undoubtedly one of the most interesting solutions on the market, but let’s see how well Samsung will be able to advance its technology to manufacturers, especially those who have already made a medium and long term contract with other companies.

The emergence of the new processor in the case of a significant spread can help the company to partially compensate for the problems in the consumer market, which the manufacturer had to face throughout 2014 and caused the need to address the optimization of work: he closed his flagship store in London, and the failed sale GALAXY S5 (review) gave rise to the dismissal of several managers. Optimization affected the Russian office – jobs may soon lose 20% of its employees, and the American software developer filed a lawsuit to declare the Russian representative bankrupt. Let’s see how the situation in Russia will affect the newly appointed head of the local representation.

Do I need a curved display smartphone? I think this is not the most important characteristics that I would look for when selecting a device. Especially in the case of the pioneers – Samsung Galaxy Round and LG G Flex. The benefit of this bend was well, very little, let’s be honest. In the Galaxy Note EDGE display curved differently – it’s not a small bend over the entire area display, clearly curved line that looks very unusual. But whether he was more useful than a curved?

And in this post I want to share a little experience operating Note EDGE is folded with a focus on end, as inyuz Galaxy Note 4, which I use for several months, I have recently published.

For those who have not read / did not watch reviews, enclose a link to them: Samsung Galaxy Note EDGE, Samsung Galaxy Note 4.

The main feature of Note EDGE, which distinguishes it from the original model – a curved display. Bending pronounced and, unlike the aforementioned Galaxy Round, curved portion has a separate functionality. That is, we have not just the fact that there is a bend, and case studies and how to use it. Technically, here we have one display, the right part is bent. Software is the entire interface is divided into two zones: the main screen, which has a diagonal of 5.6 “and a resolution of 2560 x 1440 pixels, and sideband, its resolution is 2560 x 160 pixels. This is enough to place a column of icons, scrolling and other useful information.

What is the use of this panel? If you do not take into account that it looks very unusual and such a display can just brag to your friends, this line can be used in favor of functionality. For example, the night, as expected, are very handy thing. Several times I tried to sleep with her for hours straight Pebble, that at any moment it was possible to see the time, but it is inconvenient. Unlock any smartphone hurt – too bright. And then at a certain time you just show the weather, time and date. Muted tsiferki to completely off (black) screen is not annoying at all. By the way, the weather turned out to be even more useful than the time – I have are often shooting in the morning and woke up before the alarm, it is useful to know the rain or not, as well as temperature.

Of course, conveniently located on the side of the icon with the most popular applications and games for their fast start. It’s like an extra on the desktop dock that accommodates a large number of icons.

Also proved a convenient pop-up messages: how to notice and function keys. For example, while playing an incoming call does not interrupt gameplay, you can answer or repel the call using the sliders on the side panel. And while watching videos or playing conveniently receive notification of incoming messages – you know who and what is written.

Today, the side panels are not very many. But open API, developers can build upon existing applications and games (additional gaming panel could use as extra. Items) and write a separate sidebar, which will be available in the app store Samsung.

Speaking of usability, it is worth noting that there is no discomfort, but one drawback due to the folded edge, still is – cases. If you like to wear the device in a case, it will have a good search. Of good options I found brand smart case with a lid that does not completely close the display to curved surface was always visible.

There is another point that requires a habit – a key lock. In most large smartphones, it is located on the right side to it was convenient to reach with your thumb. Immediately, for obvious reasons, it had to move upstairs.

Oddly enough, but in the hand of a smartphone is no worse than usual Note 4, the folded edge of the convenience seized upon not affected. Many people ask the question: “How does the bent part, when using the device constantly touches her hand?”. The manufacturer has provided it, and the panel responds to touch only if you’re working with it.

Second, that some wonder – what to do lefties, since only one face is bent, and she was right. There is also a software solution, Note EDGE – the first smartphone Korean manufacturer, interface which can be flipped upside down. In this case, instead of at hardware keys appear onscreen. A side face in such a position is to the left.

Unfortunately, during the review, I have not found it possible to turn the side panel in a locked state to an active was only bent portion. During the operation, I found how to do it: in the locked position, simply swipe your finger from left to right or vice versa, but without lifting a finger. Once the clock appears, and you can swipe to switch the other panel. Conveniently, if you set a string of weather to see the temperature. By the way, in the app store Samsung already have an application Gismeteo, which is accessible side panel with a thermometer. Looks fresh.

In general, the solution of interesting, and you get used to it. But at most, curved screen – still branding thing. EDGE – pretty massive thing as a cost, and the feelings. Functionally useful, but to grow, of course, is where. I’d like to display more third-party solutions, especially waiting for them in games. Today, many complex games ported and processed for smartphones and tablets. Take the Heroes of Might and Magic 3, which have recently appeared for mobile devices, or tanks in which to add. the screen can accommodate a variety of useful buttons. But even now, the existence of such rarities like!

Himself smartphone is still one of the most powerful on the market, with a very high-quality display and an excellent camera. In this case we get an all in one for those who want a fashion phone, but with unclipped characteristics.

The post Well, let’s go operating experience Samsung Galaxy Note EDGE appeared first on Raqwe.

Industry mobile devices has taken another significant step forward, pleased the users a host of new devices. Among the most prominent of them created by Motorola smartphone Google Nexus 6 has a special place. Its huge, almost 6-inch screen puts it in some of the largest fabletov. But the role played habitually giant Samsung Galaxy Note Edge. Will the novelty not only compete with him, but even to surpass it?

In this issue have tried to figure out on the resource Phone Arena, comparing this to both devices on various parameters.

Design – Nexus 6 and Galaxy Note Edge

Build Quality at Motorola, a manufacturer of Nexus 6, traditionally higher than Samsung, but the findings are currently doing is still very early. Both devices are incredibly larger. Galaxy Note Edge slightly more compact: 151.3 mm in height x 82,4 mm wide x 8,3 mm in thickness. But the Nexus 6 – a true giant: 159.26 millimeters in height x 82,98 mm wide x 10,06 mm in thickness. Edge more comfortable to hold and use it too comfortable.

An interesting feature is the Galaxy Note Edge location of the power button on the top edge of the phone. Can not say that it is very convenient. Fortunately, the Nexus 6 power button, along with a volume control located on the right and it is easier to get.

Galaxy Note Edge weighing slightly less – 174 grams and Nexus 6 – 184 grams. This difference is hardly significant. It should be noted also that the Nexus 6 has protection against water spray that is lacking Galaxy Note Edge.

Display – Nexus 6 and Galaxy Note Edge

6 inch QHD-6 display Nexus 493 with a density of pixels per inch is characterized by the same resolution as the 5.6-inch Note Edge, pixel density is higher than – 525 pixels per inch. This is understandable, the lower screen (at the same resolution), the higher the density of the image on it. But both displays deliver crystal clear images. Galaxy Note Edge has a Super AMOLED-display, and the Nexus 6 – screen AMOLED-based technology.

An important difference is the screen Galaxy Note Edge, curved to the right edge of the phone. The purpose of this additional side of the display is to display the notification, as well as quick access to different kinds of information, such as weather reports, sports scores, news. There may also be placed and application shortcuts. At Nexus 6 is nothing like that.

Interface – Nexus 6 and Galaxy Note Edge

Nexus 6 is running the latest operating system Google Android 5.0 Lollipop. In this version of the favorite mobile platform has changed externally and internally, has become more mature. Galaxy Note Edge, being devaysom Samsung, once again “happy” user interface TouchWiz . This means that the operating system looks and functions differently anymore. Another question, is it necessary to most users, these additional features? The answer to this, each user can give himself. Pure Android users easier and more intuitive and works are usually faster than the operating system shell TouchWiz or other alternative software upgrade.

Apparently, Galaxy Note Edge will be running Android 4.4 KitKat. TouchWiz for Note Edge will try to make up for a huge array of additional functions lack Lollipop. Among these functions, multi-mode (Multi Window) and a variety of gestures Air Gestures, not to mention the extra preinstalled applications and opportunities for customization.

Another advantage Galaxy Note Edge before Nexus 6 – its stylus S Pen, which was better than ever before visited stylus Samsung. Providing more precise control of handheld device, it is a clear indication that the stylus is not a thing of the past and modern devaysa they can also be very useful.

Processor and memory

It’s no surprise that Nexus 6 and Galaxy Note Edge based on the top chipset Snapdragon 805. processor has a clock speed of 2.7 GHz and is based on the Krait CPU 450, having a GPU Adreno 420. Equally impressive characteristics, however, just required for devices with such a high resolution screen.

Memory both phones are also the same. Both have 3-gigabyte of RAM, which should be sufficient for most users, including for those who enjoy multitasking. The minimum volume of the built-in storage for both devices is 32 gigabytes, while the second and the maximum – 64 gigabytes. In this case, only Galaxy Note Edge has a slot for memory cards microSD.

Camera – Nexus 6 and Galaxy Note Edge

Time after time, Samsung is pleasantly surprising features of their cells, which, alas, can not be said about Motorola. But the company is trying to make the camera of their mobile devices to be commended. In Galaxy Note Edge is a 16-megapixel main camera, while the Google Nexus 6 found 13-megapixel photos, and nobody will be surprised if this time the photos taken with the help of this device, will be impressive.

In addition to the pictures in high resolution, both phones are capable of shooting 4K-video. Unfortunately, in the Galaxy Note Edge video recording time in such a high resolution is limited to five minutes. In Nexus 6 any time limit shooting video in 4K are not available. And, of course, you can always restrict ourselves to 1080p resolution for both devices. In this case, the optical image stabilization has only Galaxy Note Edge.

It is time to talk about the front chambers considered devices. Galaxy Note Edge in this respect somewhat larger rival, having a 3.7-megapixel front camera. At Nexus 6 front camera 2 megapixel. Will it affect the self as will become clear only in the testing process.

Battery

Galaxy Note Edge has a battery capacity of 3000 mAh. It is a worthy vessel for modern batteries. Superiority Nexus 6 (3220 mAh), more apparent than real, since the device is big screen and there is no certainty that the extra 220 mAh will be enough to “drink” the energy of the extra screen space.

Google promises that its smartphone will last 24 hours of talk time or 13.8 days of standby time. Of course, these figures do not reflect the way you use your phone actually. The good news was the information that the Nexus 6, unlike Galaxy Note Edge, has a built-in capability of wireless charging. Unfortunately, nothing is officially reported uptme Galaxy Note Edge on one battery charge.

Main advantages – Nexus 6 and Galaxy Note Edge

Nexus 6 just with its 6-inch screen is huge even compared to modern fabletov and boasts a clean Android 5.0 Lollipop. Meanwhile, Galaxy Note Edge is an example of innovative fableta with a curved display. An additional advantage is the S Pen. To consider whether the benefits of additional features TouchWiz, each user decides for himself.

Is it too big for the Nexus 6 hands the average user? Whether sufficient attraction has a new operating system Android 5.0 Lollipop to users prefer this particular?

Samsung Unpacked traditional event giving fans high-tech just two fableta – Galaxy Note 4 and Galaxy Note Edge. The lion’s share of public attention, which of course, was confined to the last device. All the fault – curved lateral face of the display, to introduce that have not been able to any manufacturer. Despite appearing instantly wah, a few minutes later the reader asks: why is it necessary? Today, it will try to answer the representatives of Samsung.

Familiarize yourself with the benefits of the five main innovations Galaxy Note Edge managed by writing to the official blog Samsung Tomorrow, which is shared by our foreign colleagues from bgr. So, why still need a notorious bend?

According to representatives of the company, the main purpose of a slight bend is rapid access to frequently used applications. It is noteworthy that access a program at any time: and while surfing on the vast World Wide Web, and fascinating pastime with one of these dangerous games.

No less useful feature is to show notification while watching videos. Agree not to be distracted from the long-awaited debut at the wonderful 5.6-inch display with a resolution of 2560 x 1600 pixels is really convenient.

Almost everyone keeps inside credo. Well, or at least has a favorite motivational phrase. Whatever it was, all this can be put on the edge of the screen. And even choose a suitable background.

Why smartphones? In general, in order to keep abreast of current world events. With the Galaxy Note Edge track important news is extremely convenient. With the application the curved portion of the screen not only show new mention on Twitter, but also, for example, show the score in the last basketball game.

If all of the above you are not impressed, and you want to use this area was really good – select the display set of the most useful applications. Among the latter – a stopwatch, timer, flashlight, voice recorder and even line.

It seems that the South Korean company engineers worked well over the functionality of the bend. But is that enough to throw for purchase in a local store? Share your opinion in the comments.

The post Why curved hem Galaxy Note Edge: version of the Samsung appeared first on Raqwe.

Two weeks have passed since the time when Samsung introduced its innovative phone Galaxy Note Edge. During the conference, many IFA 2014 we found out about it , but since its launch date has not yet been sounded. Therefore it is necessary to rely on rumors and speculation about this.

Coming soon Galaxy Note Edge is one of the most unusual smartphone Samsung. This fablet with S-Pen stylus and curved on the right side of the phone display. This enabled Samsung to move this extra screen dock applications, and use this mini display for displaying various information. Resource Explorer Android Origin Doug Lynch were considered some of the details about the new phone, clarifying information already known about the device, which is less likely, perhaps, similar to those “umnofony”, which are all used in the past few years.

Samsung calls this screen is the panel: there can be factored weather information, the stock price, news headlines, sports scores and more. In addition, the panel can be used by some utilities – as a timer, a ruler and some other additional functions.

Specifications Samsung Galaxy Note Edge

Samsung Galaxy Note Edge has a 5.6-inch SuperAMOLED-display with a resolution of 2560 x 1600. size of the main screen, as compared with the classic 5.7-inch display Galaxy Note 4, several reduced, since there is also an additional screen panel. As a result, the density of 524 pixels per inch at a ratio of 16:10.

As in the classic Galaxy Note 4, it is used as the Exynos 5 Octa 5433 and chipset Qualcomm Snapdragon 805. The phone has three gigabytes of memory (RAM, RAM) LPDDR3. The same amount of RAM and a 32-gigabyte and 64-gigabyte versions unusual smartphone.

The drive can be expanded with a memory card that is inserted into microSDXC-slot. Memory card can not be more than 128 gigabytes. The smartphone also has a 16-megapixel BSI-camera mounted behind the rear panel devaysov to shoot video with a resolution of 4K . Galaxy Note Edge also has a 3.7-megapixel front camera. Camera sensor is the same as in the Galaxy Note 4, and this was the basis for Doug Lynch to believe that a camera will have this phone one of the best among all the smartphones, presently available in the market. Galaxy Note Edge will be shipped with the operating system Android 4.4.4 KitKat and have a battery capacity of 3000 mAh.

Previously it was assumed that the curved screen will have Galaxy Note 4, but Samsung decided otherwise. Apparently, on the way got some technical obstacles, and maybe just a lack of confidence in the fact that an unusual phone will well received by users who do not wish, without good cause, to change their habits formed. Therefore, the South Korean Technology Corporation decided to confine separate version of its flagship fableta with a curved screen. Doug Lynch believes that this was an excellent idea, offering the consumer a choice.

He believes that the Galaxy Note Edge will be available later in 2014. But this is unlikely to occur simultaneously with the October debut Galaxy Note 4, which is considered one of the leaders of the opposition fabletov . Although rumors about the same time the beginning of the sales of these two smartphones and go, but Doug Lynch did not believe that they will come true.

Different retailers have already started taking pre-orders for the Galaxy Note Edge, which is another hint at the approaching debut of this device. It can be ordered through Amazon, Notebooksbilliger, redcon and MediaMarkt. It’s sad to know, but, alas, the price of the device is likely to be at the level of $ 1,000, which is higher than the Galaxy Note 4, based on the same components. That is, a kind of aesthetic curved screen users will have to pay.

What do you think about the Galaxy Note Edge? Is it worth it as a lot of money? Do I need your smartphone extra screen on the right side?

The post Details Samsung Galaxy Note Edge. Curved screen, and smartphone rose appeared first on Raqwe.

In the past year we have been featured Galaxy Round, in which Samsung has been experimenting with the form of the screen. This year the trend continued, and together in the usual Galaxy Note 4 was introduced Galaxy Note Edge, right side face which takes curved screen. Maybe this form factor will fly better than last year.

In terms of personal characteristics is not yet told, but it is logical to assume that they are similar to the Samsung Galaxy Note 4, which is presented at the same time.

Bending the side of the screen live a separate life from the main display, so that it is planned that it will be used as additional space or space to be notified when the screen is off.

For developers rolled SDK, so that they can use this extra screen area in their applications. The question, as usual, is whether Samsung is enough to encourage developers to ensure that they have started to write.

Galaxy Note Edge will appear on the “select markets” so that, as for me, all goes to the fact that Galaxy Note Edge will meet the same fate as the Galaxy Round. Namely – the lack of the reasons why the use of the form factor, as a consequence, no one understands why he was released and no one buys. Decay, despair, etc.

For example, I see the problem is how to hold it correctly, because the size of rather big, and one of the faces, which should be put fingers now occupied and sensitive to touch.

So far, the Galaxy Note Edge looks very convincing, but at first no one knew the first Note. So anything is possible.
