While we have a good idea of what to expect from HTC’s flagship device, we really didn’t have anything to go on for Samsung. That all changed within the last 24 hours. Based on photos leaked on XDA Developers, we might be looking at newest additions to Samsung’s Galaxy flagship family w/ the S6 + S6 Edge.
If this is close to the final product, Samsung is doing their best iPhone impression on this one.
Samsung looks to have added premium materials as many of you hoped they would w/ not a piece of plastic in sight. We have a larger + rounder Home button, glass rear w/ metal on the sides of the devices. Decent-sized camera sensor on the rear (probably the same as on the Note 4) alongside a single LED flash + heart-rate monitor. The S6 Edge appears as if it won’t be as we envisioned it in our heads. Its looking like just a slightly curved display. Not big enough to be a 2nd screen of icons like on the Note 4 Edge.
Whatever the case, Samsung appeared to have offered up a more premium Galaxy device that’s not a Note. While I’m not necessarily crazy about the design, I am curious to see what bells and whistles they put inside of this thing. All will be revealed this weekend as Mobile World Congress officially kicks off on Sunday evening.
