Galaxy S6 vs Galaxy S6 Edge: A battle of screen and glass

2015-04-15
this episode of tekzilla buffalo's brought to you by harry's what's going on everyone john render from TechnoBuffalo here there are a lot of choices in smartphone in the world I think Samsung has two of the most compelling out there right now the galaxy s6 and the galaxy s6 edge but which wouldn't you get it's usually what I do versus I'll compare screen I'll compare battery life I'll compare it build quality but essentially these are the same phones they got the same 5.1 inch qHD screen what we're told the same Exynos processor so the two quad cores one to two point 101.5 same three gigs of ram same 16 megapixel camera on the back five on the front only small differences in the battery The Edge has a 50 million power advantage with 2560 versus 25 50 other than that they are essentially the same except for a few differences which what the vs. is going to talk about we're gonna talk about price and we're going to talk about beauty so what are you gonna get with the edge you're not gonna get it with the s6 obviously you're gonna get an edge that consists of two curved sides of the screen so supposedly samsung says it adds a bit of utility first you're gonna get the people function so right from your lock screen you can swipe it from the top where you see a little almost translucent bar and you can access quick dial as you've access information about certain people that you want to set it's relatively simple in addition to that you're also gonna have the ability to show homeless news feeds RSS feeds rather serve options on the edge that's about it talked about of the review I use any of those features at all I turned to almost all of them off and they became relatively useless for me but what I did like about the edge of wisdom looks I think when using the phone it becomes almost an accessory and less even utility than it used to be she wants it's going to look nice and I think that the s6 edge has incredible looks and both these phones have the same build quality they're made of the same material it's the same Gorilla Glass and the front and back the same camera it's everything else is the same but the way the phone feels a little bit different the way the phone scroll is a little bit different when you're scrolling on a galaxy s6 edge because it cursed the sides it looks like the tech is coming out of nowhere and you feel the phone it just feels different because of that curve when you're swiping through it's got a very smooth motion the phone just looks beautiful now that looks gonna college the next costs $100 difference fortunately you're getting exactly the same phone so the question is is it worth $100 to you and that's gonna be a personal preference I can't answer that for you I will say I haven't ordered my own phone in quite a while I've got the privilege of being able to test almost every new phone that comes down so really I don't have much for reason to buy a phone myself so I'm always testing something new but I went and pre-ordered a galaxy s6 edge I like to weigh the phone books and for me that extra $100 was worth the premium something that was new there's not that much new out there the phone world usually they're just different rectangles with some buttons and the same UI that you've seen and I like it or something different but that might not be the best for you the best thing I can tell you is go to the store try them both out see if one's gonna be better than the other I will say when the only difference is that I saw outside from the looks a little bit worse battery life on the s6 and presumably it takes a little extra horsepower to sort of make that curving happen and to show the pixels on it look at me you can probably assume there are two things I don't like putting on nice clothes and shave them up base and that's where our friends at Harry's come in the folks at Harry's offer super high-quality razors they cared so much about the razor blades they just freakin went out and bought the entire factory in Germany where these blades are made if you want to get really good quality razors you don't want to spend a ton of money Harry -
