[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] Santanazz:
I have used this phone for 1 month and I am really satisfied to its performance and build quality.. Samsung has improved its TouchWiz interface with less bloatware and great smoothness of screen. The design is stunning as I hold a jewel in my hand (I am using Gold Platinum), and I use Spigen Clear View Case for protection and screen protector. I choose screen protector rather than tempered glass although I use TG on my previous device (Galaxy S5) as the difficulties to install it and there is a possibility that the tempered glass will deteriorate screen quality if we don't install it correctly (dust is the worst enemy).

Battery life is great for my daily usage (texting, camera, video, browsing, multimedia) and I don't really care about SoT because it is not the main parameter to measure the battery performance. I usually charge the battery when it reached 25 - 35% until 80 - 90%. Fast charging feature is really useful here because it only takes up to 1 hour to reach those capacity without any usage while charging.

For storage, it is a subjective matter because one person has it own point of view and most of them complaining about no micro SD slot. I owned 64GB ROM and it is quite good for me. After installing some apps, music, and videos, it only takes 30% from entire capacity. A photo that taken by this device with highest quality only eat up between 4 - 8MB storage which means 1% storage can hold about 80 high quality photos.

I must say this is one of the best smartphone I have ever owned and I never regret for buying this phone
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] jbfountain:
+1 I couldn't agree with you more! I've had many top quality smartphones (LG G4

, HTC ONE M9, HTC ONE M8), and this one blows them all away. Plus I have friends with iPhone 6 and regular Samsung S6, and after using my Edge Plus they all say that they want one.

[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] celeronix:
Not at all.

This is the best device on the market. Highly doubt that there will be a better one soon enough to make me buy it. Will keep that for my 2-year contract as I'm very pleased with it.

By the way I had experienced this lock-screen issue a few times and it didn't happen lately, which is interesting, having in mind there weren't any new updates of the OS.

My previous Note 4 has a slightly better screen though. On the Edge+ I can notice some colour shifting on the whites, which is just slightly irritating. I really miss the mSD card slot (will hate Samsung forever for that).

And yeah.. others pointed out it's hard to find a good tempered glass screen protector. I suffer from that as well :)

By the way when I see someone bragging about their iPhone, my day just gets better. I still can't figure it out why people think those phones worth their money...
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] Alex---1:
Yes, I regret buying mine.

I've had Samsung phones since the original Galaxy S and they've got better and better every year, until now. Phones have peaked, the technology has peaked, there is nothing new anymore, just slightly better camera and a slightly faster processor in every 'new' release but it's not needed. Nobody blows up phone photos on a large canvas. My last phone was the note 3 and on the S6 Edge+ other than the camera being better and being slightly thinner (more fragile) there's nothing this S6 Edge+ will do that my old Note 3 won't.

I'm also getting more and more pissed off with Samsungs updates. No wonder they're loosing more money every quarter - They're crap!

All Samsung need to do to regain is customer base is make updates a priority, not a flagship followed by a billion other versions of that flagship - S3 for example....S3, S3+, S3 mini blah blah....Who cares!

It's the one thing Apple do right every single year. ONE iPhone for EVERYONE, one update for every phone. It's simple yet Samsung always seem to miss the point!
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] Riardon:
As an iPad Air owner I have to say that last year Apple was horrible with its updates. iOS 8 series was full of bugs and problems and they released so many updates to try fix them with no avail. Even the first release of iOS 9 was crap. Very laggy. Now things are better but it took them a year to fix. Samsung is slow that's true I'm pretty sure they can do a better job. Maybe LG got MM earlier but there no big changes there while Samsung changes a lot of things in its update at least for the S6 family owners. Sadly the S5 will not see the new MM UI.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] jhonyp:
I'm coming from Note4. Only miss irDa sensor. Microsd? I use a otg pendrive. I never pull out battery on note 4 so don't miss that.

Now I have a better camera better screen, better processor, more and better ram and a so much beautiful phone.

I want a fluid phone with a good camera .. do you advice me to get this one or the Xperia Z5 ?
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] guybrush2099:
both are great smartphones

Xperia Z5 a little bit smoother

S6 Edge+ Camera a little bit better
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] korom42:
thank you .. I've watched some reviews of both phones .. I think I'm going for the Z5 now
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] cryptonx:
Its the best android phablet avIlable in almost all aspects. Imo.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] umbrokhan:
Good luck with your phone. I hope it don't over heat.

I think Z3 is better then Z5. But its upto you.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] korom42:
Thnks mate

Well I bought the Xperia Z5 today and I'm very happy .. this phone is just amazing .. I am coming from the LG G4 , I find the built quality and the screen sharpness awesome much much better then the G4 , I hope the camera is good as well I didn't test it yet . Touchscreen is very responsive , the phone is getting a bit warm when using the camera for more than 10 minutes but it's not agressive I find it normal .
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] jbfountain:
I had the G4 also and the S6 Edge Plus is twice the phone it was. I really can't comment on the Z5 although I have always heard good things about the Sony Z series phones in general.

Absolutely no regrets it's a fantastic device but I'm selling it as soon as I can get an international S7 Edge.

I'm such a phone glutton

Yeah I'm going to trade mine in on a S7 Edge as well. After seeing the actual device today I've changed my mind about keeping this one. Although; it is a great phone.

[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] vickysud:
i dont regret it , i will wait till IFA when samsung launches a S7 premium version.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] :
I definitely do not regret buying this phone, even with the announcement of the S7 (Edge).

In my opinion, this is a great phone due to the perfect size along with the nice camera. I don't play many games on my phone, so the performance of this device is perfectly fine. The only thing I don't like is that Samsung is holding back the Android M update, which is a bit sad.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] Maknora:
what exactly did u like so much about it
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] jbfountain:
Which one? If you mean the S7 Edge I like the faster processor, the larger battery, and the micro SD card capability. If you were asking about the S6 Edge Plus it's the speed, incredible display, and how good it feels in my hand. Not to mention the great design.

I don't know if I can do the smaller size....

I think I'll keep the s6 edge plus and buy the S6 Note when it's time.

5.7 to 5.5 not that much of a difference IMHO.

The LP it is suck spceially the edge screen

The edge screen not responsive at all hopefully with the upcoming MM update it should be ok
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] jona822i:
Regret

I do regret it, first of all its so ****ing expensive, i regret it like a lot. I dont think i got such a good deal of it, i better want like a one plus one, you get so much more for you money..

(sorry for bad english)
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] umbrokhan:
i only regret the very slow updates. otherwise the best phone i ever had.

also i have a dead pixel on my screen.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] thools60:
I somewhat regret it. But not because there's something wrong with the phone. It's because we don't seem to get any love from Cyanogenmod. Other than that this machine is a beast. Superfast and with a great camera.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] pilzgift:
No but I might very well without rooting it and being stuck with the stock rom, even though some optimization seems possible there too.

It looks gorgeus, is very responsive, has a great display and outstanding gaming performance while (after tons of debloating and tinkering with amplify) getting about 5 or 6 hours sot or several days of standby if I must. I feel even more might be possible with further optimizations.

Considering that people can snap the 6p in half with ease (I found that plausible as he explained the flaws well and also repeated it), that other phones are far easier bricked or had other drawbacks I came across while comparing, I only might eventually regret that I didnt opt for the 64 gb model.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] nowerlater:
I regret buying the P variant. No support for kernel at all. Roms? Joke also. Some have tried but without kernel, it's a waste.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] ragarok:
Regret it? Every single day...

My next phone is NOT going to be a Samsung device. I used to like Samsung's but not anymore

Knite75 sums it up pretty nicely so I'll quite him here.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] jayross66:
The only issue /I have with this phone is the battery drain issue. This thing burns battery in the most awful way. And I cant figure out what background apps are causing it either.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] :
Exact reason why I sold mine a few days ago, the battery issues were getting on my nerves and was a major hassle.

[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] zenosteam:
what your best SOT with the 6 +
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] bioan:
Best phone I ever had and trust me I had a lot of them. No issues with battery life. I use it from 6 am till 23 pm, with a constant bluetooth connection (huawei watch or mi band 2). Location on high accuracy, mobile data always on 4g+. Never rebooted, never froze.

All stock, with Google Now launcher. I average around 4h of screen on time.

My only issues is finding a proper screen protector that does not peel after 1 month of usage.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] Santanazz:
I have been used this phone for 8 months and the performance still on the top and nearly same when I bought it on December last year.. It is even better when it got MM 6.0.1 update last March because the performance is more stable.. The battery can hold up around 12 - 18 hours regarding my usage pattern and just a little bit difference comparing to S7 Edge.. The specs maybe lower when compared to S7 edge or even Note 7, but in reality, the difference is really small.. I am planning to keep this phone for 2 years ++ since the performance is not decreased yet.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] gintariukeas:
No, it is an excellent phone! The performance is even better than year ago when i have bought it. I love its big amoled screen, speed, looks. I am getting 5-6 hours sot which obviously could be better but it is ok.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] Ryland Johnson:
What mobile with same specification and aesthetics will you purchase that has better battery use?

All these Uber mobiles eat battery, I am only amazed they don't eat more considering what that battery has to power.

Let us know what you purchase and I guarantee if you read the forum here related to your new mobile the issue of battery drain will be a constant topic of debate.

[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] Soufiansky:
I currently have an S6 and i hate it, why ? Because of it's battery life, what's the point of having a powerful phone with great camera and screen,but can only use for some hours ? Battery life is horrible. I'm looking to buy a phone next year, and it will be either the iphone 6 plus,Galaxy S6 edge plus or S7 edge if the prices drops
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] xenkato:
Coming from a NOTE 5 .Never regret it.Missing only the rom development ,everything else is amazing..
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] Tom-Helge:
I don't get it why so many peoples are complaining about the battery on the Galaxy S6 edge+ when the battery on the phone actually are pretty good. The issue must be from the users side and not the phones side.

Have a look at this battery life i got some few days ago.....

Here is the total use time.....

And here is my screen on time from that.....

So in my experience, the battery life is amazing on this phone.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] Anony98:
My battery life is pretty good.

It lasts for days if i don't use it,and up to 6 hours for normal use.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] hertz9511:
I'm not regretting buying s6e+ (after all, i just rooted the device,once out off the box,lol), but the only draw back is finding a case,

it seems that this device didn't have much demand (demand and supply) <-- this is what the case manufacturer said to me when i contacted them bout some cases that i want (through AliExpress)

my gf s7e got, even the new j5/j7 also got, but why not s6e+

lol, u do realize your screen grabs are in another language right?

---------- Post added at 10:01 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:55 AM ----------

battery life is bad especially compared to iphone, iphone can go couple of days with out charging.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] Tom-Helge:
Yeah, but no one has issues to see what the batterytime is anyways. Because if you see a total use time where it says a number off 'xx' and then right after another 'xx' number and then a third 'xx' number, then that means the first number is hour(s), and then the second one is minute(s) where the last number is second(s).

If there is a 4th number in xx amount. It means it's day(s). So if you know this, there is absolutely no problem to see what the batterytime is.

No iPhones comes even remotely close to the battery life i have on my Galaxy S6 edge+.

The only reason you can have battery on it for several days is because the power drain under standby is using pretty much no power. But once you actually starts to use the iPhone, the battery will fall like a rock in an ocean.

And iOS doesn't even calculates how much screen on time you have on it. It only calculates the total use time you have been using actively it and how long the iPhone have been powered on in total.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] arcolino1:
lol, so u have to explain a screen shot? kinda defeats the purpose of a screen shot ayy!? lol and the follow the xx or is that yy mashugana
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] Tom-Helge:
No, it's using common sense of thinking logically ;).

Screenshots of others peoples batterytimes have been posted in droves in all types of languages before me, so i don't see why it so suddenly should be a problem just now.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] arcolino1:
actually No! had long battery life on iphone with a lot of usage. battery life better other than that galaxy better.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] Tom-Helge:
Proof or it didn't happen. It's as simple as that.

I have proof of a very good battery life on my Galaxy S6 edge+, so i'm good.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] arcolino1:
yup thats it common sense with a foreign language sure, like a round ball in square hole just need to apply common sense:o

o and others might not have posted because they just thought it would have been a hassle pointing something out and getting flack mashugana

proof would be I used both, and I am actually a samsung galaxy phone person, used iphone for old job so even leaning towards galaxy had good results with iphone. there is your proof.

[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] Tom-Helge:
First of all, what the hell is 'mashugana?

And secondly. The fact that peoples posts screenshots of everything all over the places here from their phones in all different languages happens all the times. So DEAL WITH IT.

Actually no, there is no proofs that you actually have used any of those phones you are 'claiming' to have used.

I have posted 2 pictures from my Galaxy S6 edge+ from my batterytime, so i have the proof that i actually have the device. Why else would i be in the Galaxy S6 edge+ forum section posting about stuffs?

Here you even have more proof that i use a Galaxy S6 edge+ by showing you my Geekbench 3 score: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/7309753/Bilder/Smarttelefoner/Samsung%20Galaxy%20S6%20edge%2B/Bilder/Benchmark/Screenshot_20160319-204258.jpg

Well yeah, if i don't regret buying the Galaxy S6 edge+ because i have reasons for it, aka the reason i posted my battery life here, then i'm just taking part of what the topic is about and explains why i don't regret buying it.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] Soufiansky:
Stop, the only iphones that have better battery life than the S6 edge plus are the 6 plus and 6s plus,they have some crazy battery backup,but the others are average.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] HotKgon:
I moved from the iPhone 6 Plus and I have to say that I found it had a better battery life. On my stock S6 edge plus, the battery just gets slaughtered on standby with nothing open. That is why I'm thinking of flashing to a custom rom to see if it improves the battery life and usability.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] seven2099:
Like on any mobile device, you need to check what applications you have that could be poorly optimized, draining your battery.

6.0.1 does a good job allowing you to see which ones don't want to get optimized and I always find that if my battery drain is too fast, its due to an app that doesn't let the phone sleep properly (games are notoriously crap at this)
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] HotKgon:
The biggest drainer I found was the spotify widget. Literally killed my battery in 2-3 hours on standby and I wasn't even playing music!

Tried all the stuff that I could with the stock rom with minimal success. Looking at ways of getting rid of some bloatware. Toying with the idea of either Audax Plus M v10 or RiverROM RR5 Progressive. Not sure which way to go yet. Any suggestion?
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] seven2099:
None. I run stock mainly because of Gear VR.

I don't struggle with battery life though and use my phone all day. It lasts me about 24 hours until empty and I'm ok with that.

For the battery and constant data usage its just fine for me. Also, fast charge = 15 minutes ~ 20% of charge so I don't really get stressed or care about that.

I absolutely love it. It was a very easy transition from the Note 5 to the S6 Edge+. I don't have any of the issues that are mentioned and I seem to have a very decent understanding of the hardware and software so that makes it easier for me. I have stock ROM but have custom Recovery and root access.

I so want the S7 Edge+ but I can wait until I have had this beauty a little longer.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] Wesley_NL:
the device is perfect , the only issue is no sd, and battery life, well you cant vlame the device , blame the apps you use and blame yourself how you use it, i with music playing flac for mat i listen 12+ houts with bluetooth headset, you can not compare phones nowdays with nokia 3310, even iphones are power eaters, as for touch screen i have no problems either, i think people expect to much from phones if you ask me
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] littledeer:
First of all, there are very complaints about poor battery life on S6 Edge+.

There is significant improvement (overall performance) after installing the new G928FXXU3CQBB firmware (Android 7.0) on my S6 Edge+ (SM-G928F) and most important is: there is an improvement in a battery life (of course, after turning off some unnecessary apps and adjustment of some standard settings). I'm often saying: if you are not satisfied with your phone battery - just buy a car battery. :D

(For comparison: I have tried (a very short time) Huawei Mate 9 and I was terrified by phone heating during the execution of common actions. And, guess... about a battery life ! Sad.)

In my opinion, S6 Edge+ is a top device (screen, CPU, GPU, chipset, etc). Just don't forget: everyone who is (or who will be) a proud owner of this device must CAREFULLY READ all existing instructions about how to reduce a battery consumption. It is simple, because the Logic and Physics says: more (unnecessary) active applications - more power consumption.

Choose S6 Edge+ or other phone, e.g. IPhone ? I vote for Samsung. Absolutely.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] umbrokhan:
My battery is getting worse and worse. I had it 1 year and half. I think of getting Galaxy A5 2017 instead for better battery life and full HD that won't kill the battery quicker

No regrets. I got the dual sim version SM-G9287. The phone is really great. Battery is decent enough, as I use it all day with 4g on the second sim. Only flip side is the updates, this model didn't receive the 7.0 update yet and even I couldn't find any 7.0 custom roms supporting this model.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] mookiexl:
I don't regret it because I got the phone for 499 brand new about a year ago. Had I paid the full release price or had bought the phone at release I would be absolutely pissed. Development for this device has been unbelievably slow. I have a Note 3 that had a working lineage 14.1 for and AOD ported to TouchWiz ROMs for months now.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] WastedJoker:
I've had this phone since it came out and I've been mostly underwhelmed by it. The edge screens are a gimmick and rather than being useful they're more of a hindrance when typing. Decent battery life was only possible by ruthlessly stripping all the bloat from the phone after rooting. Goodness knows people who don't root phones have managed.

Wow!

Thing is, I just took a look at the S8+ annnnnd.....

My S6 edge+ on Noughat is still rocking.

The S8+ is beautifully built.... No don't about it.

But I already have the S6 edge+ and with Noughat there's very little difference in the operating system

The S6 edge+ is thinner - shoots 16:9

I'm going to buy the S8+ for my partner but I'll wait for the S8 Note.

You all need to go hold it and see what I'm saying.

See if you don't all yourself why.

Of course, the S6 edge+ I'm using is the 64gb - those on the 32gb may be getting a little tired of running it of space.

I'm sticking with my beautiful S6 edge +
