What's the verdict on the S6 edge?

Currently have ip5 but upgrade to the 6s is 3-4 times the price of the S6... So contemplating a change to Samsung.

Just wondering how people find the phone with regards durability as looking at the phone, it's very nice looking but looks s bit fragile... And might be more suited to the safety of a hand bag and not a pocket lol..

Also wondering if anyone has changed from iPhone to it how they have found the 2 compared??

i decided to go down the normal s6 route, didnt think the extra cost just for a button on the side was worth it

So far ive found it to be pretty robust, i work on cars for a living and so my phones tend to get knocked about a bit, at the minute its held up well, however i do tend to take a bit of extra care with this one due to how much it cost, as long as you look after it, itll be fine, just make sure wth it being in your pocket you use a screen protector and a case, that way it wont get scratched by keys or loose change etc.

Oh and i broke my iphone 4 after 4 weeks, this ones lasted me 5 months so far.

Am I the only person who has a dedicated pocket for my mobile? My mobile is kept in my left trouser pocket and that's it. Nothing else goes in that pocket other than that. I've got a mate who just shoves screwdrivers, keys, paperclips etc and his mobile all into the same pocket. You should see the state of his mobile .

I was in the same position as you a few months ago having had iPhones for the past 5 years. My wife went for the iPhone 6 but I decided to go for the S6, and I’m still having trouble deciding if I made the right choice or not

The S6 and the edge are really good phones, technically better than the iPhone, but it doesn’t seem to work as well as the iPhone. I found everything to be so much easier on the iPhone and everything worked how it should do, but on the galaxy it seems a bit disjointed and messy. It doesn’t feel as well made as the iPhone either and the accessories feel quite cheap. The quality is a lot better than the old Samsungs, it feels a lot better made than say the S2

The main reasons I changed to an S6 was because I had enough of being restricted by apple, and I also have quite a bit of downtime at work meaning time to watch films. The S6 has a slightly bigger screen and I can get showbox on it. The price had made the decision a little easier but that was basically it

As I said, it is a technically better phone, but for me it just doesn’t quite live up to the iPhone

Who is charging 3-4 times more for the 6s? 6s handset prices are £619 and S6 Edge £499 for 64gb models.

Not me, Got a 6S plus 128gb and keeps charge all day, I'm up at 5am and when I get in around 6pm it's still on, that's with calls and texting and Internet use...and I work on sites so it's in a Solid metal Lunatic case 😂

Price not battery time!

Ive had the odd problem but everything works mate, i was just saying that i dont think its as user friendly as an iphone. But as i said, ive had iphones for the last 5 odd years so maybe i just need to get used to it

The only technical problem ive had with it has been getting random messages saying something has stopped working even though i havent been using it. Car mode is the main one but i have had a few other things come up as well

Just got my 6S 64GB the other day. I upgraded from the first iPhone 5. So far I love it. Battery life is better than the my 5 but then it is going on 2 years old. I haven't really played much with its features but runs a lot faster and seems to work fine with iOS 9.1 which was so bad on the 5.
