hey guys this is Sean with the verge and what I have here is the samsung galaxy s6 edge+ and it's a lot like last version but just a little bit bigger this is a 5.7 inch quad HD AMOLED display so a little bit bigger than the 5.1 inch display we had on this it said otherwise everything here hardware-wise looks exactly the same we have a 16 megapixel camera on the back and a 5 megapixel camera on the front one of the biggest difference is this time around is with the edge screen this is something that people had complaints with the s6 edge and with the note edge as well it's just how much utility can you get out of having this screen that curves around the sides of the device and what Samsung has done this time is not only can you access contacts from the edge screen you can now also quick launch apps and you can do this no matter where you are in the phone so say you're browsing in chrome you can swipe it from the side and quick switch to Instagram since we've got a bigger device if it's uncomfortable to reach all the way up to swipe now you can actually move the position of the edge screen quick launcher and access it from top to bottom or anywhere in the middle one of the other neat things in the software is the ability to live broadcast to YouTube this is going to be available on the s6 edge+ as well as the galaxy note 5 and all you have to do is tap live broadcasts and you'll be able to do private streams that are in by only as well as public streams where you can share a URL to Twitter Facebook or wherever and viewers will be able to just latch right on it can go up to 1080p at 60 frames a second and use both the front and the back cameras however all this thing doesn't feel that much different in the hand than the s6 edge even though the screen is a little bit bigger Samsung's going to make this available on august twenty-first and 32 gig and 64 gig variants for more check out the verge calm need
