Samsung Galaxy Note Edge User Reviews

I bought my Note Edge a couple years ago, and the reason I'm doing this 2017 review is because although I could buy an S8 or other flagship phone, I won't because I'm a very happy camper with my Note Edge.

I won't repeat what others have already said, but mainly what I like about it: the camera quality (takes excellent pics and video), the removable battery (this is VERY important for me. I am used to having a removable battery, so much so I can't ever give it up), the microSD slot (also very impt. for me), the gorgeous display, and the phone's speed (it is a quite fast phone).

I actually don't use the Note Edge stylus all that often, I bought the Edge for use of the second screen, so to speak, that is mostly a notification bar. It works very well for that purpose. Regardless of which app I am in, when I get a phone call, e-mail, or text message, it scrolls in the notification "edge" of the phone. Also a nice touch, the edge display/bar does not take up any of my main display area. Data appears on the curved part of the display.

My Note Edge became all the more valuable on the market (but I won't sell it) when Samsung suffered the Note 7 battery debacle. I was grinning ear to ear as I was thinking that I am the proud owner of a Note Edge, with the ability to replace a battery if it is causing me problems. In 2017 that seems a now-important feature on a "flammable cell phone."

If you are considering getting a Note Edge I highly recommend it. Most new phones on the market are adding gimmicks and features that don't make the phones much different than my Note Edge. But the biggest plus about all this, the Note Edge can be had on the used market (eBay) for about $250 to $300. That's a great deal considering all you get for that price.

this phone sucks the only thing that was OK was the camera that was the only thing that was good on the whole phone.the ui was buggy and laggy the fingerprint scanner made the phone even slower. the build quality was OK the edge was OK i liked it it was novelty. this phone was a cheap hunk of plastic it didn't feel premium at all the only thing that was premium was the metal lining but the metal lining felt like plastic.after the three months it overheated and the internals where fried.the verdict do not get this phone its a waste of money if you want a good phone get the nexus 6.

So. Hardware wise it is ok except for the battery could be bigger and the line out volume is typically Samsung means not loud enough. So watching a quiet movie with headphone in an airplane is a challenge. I was very enthusiastic about the edge screen but now I enjoy only the fact that notifications goes there and an incoming call doesn't cover the whole screen and cutting me out from the thing I do like I can continue play game or whatever until I decide to take the call, cool. The flaw is what is always with every sammy phones is Touchwiz. If you already used LG or HTC or some pure android device you can compare the experience. Touchwiz is the slowest has the most lag and bug. So for me the usage experience is not so great. The screen is very cool however Samsung issue again the automatic screen dim thing set the screen always darker then I would need which is cool for the battery life but I disable the automatic many times. I never did with HTC. The camera is ok, the autofocus is slow, there is no dedicated photo button I know only Sony phones have but still it is a flaw for me. And since mostly the focus is close to infinity I don't understand why I cannot turn off autofocus set to infinity or simple switch to manual focus to avoid that huge lag between push the button and taking picture. I know most people doesn't care about this I do. I don't really have problem with the battery it can take one day so it is ok for me. Oh yeah and I hate physically home button. Once you get accustom the on screen one this is a step back. I always turn on with the home button in my pocket. It is a joke I cannot turn off this thing. And you cannot put into your pocket cozy when a headphone attached because it is in the wrong side it should be in the bottom as always every phone has nowadays. One more thing they decreased the edge screen touch sensitivity to avoid the accidental touch so now I have to touch almost everything twice on the edge, very annoying.

Beautiful Phone, with SnapDragon Processor, with Note 5 out in the Market, I would still suggest my friends to buy this device,
my Favourites are
S-Pen, IR Blaster, SD Card Support, Edge Screen, and the Biometric Security.

Galaxy Note Edge does not get the praise it deserves. I also questioned the practicality of using this phone, but once I held it in my hands, I fell in love with this piece of art. I'd like to see Samsung make a sequel to the Note Edge with only one curved screen, not dual curved like the S6 Edge and Edge +.

the best mobile ever since last 3 month i have this mobile i think i ll continue with my note edge at least next 1 years..before i hv note 4 note 3 s5 s4 all mobile jst ok but the note edge mind blowing i really love that gadget..

note edge is the best phone which i used ever
i had use moe then 100 phone but I didn't use like note edge
Beautiful phone, smooth user interface, build quality very high. Edge screen does enhance user functionality from a different dimension altogether and is accurate and responsive to touch Ultra power saving mode very handy if low batt and can stretch standby time out to 5-7 days. Fast charging will get you back up & running in no time

S-pen very sensitive and responsive , e a pretty good job with the phones ability to distinguish an actual tap over a graze from your palm. The touchwiz interface isn't that bad in my opinion but it does show a slight lag here and there depending on what you are doing. It is very minimal lag , Camera is superior but take some time to foucs

Probably this was the mobile which tend me to change from Iphone, and my first Android phone, things quite confusing intially but now after having using it for more than 5 months I love it. the only part I dont like is Camera it ditches when it comes to focus but though can be resolved with some third party apps.

Happy with it

I do not do reviews to often but I felt like I should for this one since some people are so iffy about the design of the phone. First let me say that before getting this phone I was deciding between this, the nexus 6, and iphone 6 plus. I am not biased when it comes to phones and I have previously owned an iphone 4s and iphone 5. The Iphone 6 plus was eliminated for me due to the fact that I have an iphone 6 as a work phone and I really just don't like it so apple products or not for me personally. I settled on the edge after deciding that samsung makes better use of the screen real estate with the ability to have multiple apps open at the same time as well as the added s-pen functionality. With that said I will mainly address the edge screen first. Some may see it as gimmicky but I personally found some use for it. I use for my current stock info as well as sports scores and to display my incoming messages. I know that is not a whole lot of use but it is good enough for me for now. I have yet to have an accidental tap on the edge screen so it seems like samsung has done a pretty good job with the phones ability to distinguish an actual tap over a graze from your palm. The touchwiz interface isn't that bad in my opinion but it does show a slight lag here and there depending on what you are doing. It is very minimal lag so nowhere near a deal breaker for me. the battery life could be a little better but that was a sacrifice made for the edge screen however, with moderate usage you could easily get through a whole day or more and heavy usage isn't that bad either. The rapid charging is great and an excellent way to make up for the battery life. All in all I'd recommend this phone to anyone but it will be extremely difficult to find. I went through 5 stores before finding one, and the one I got was the last one at the store I got it from. If you are not to impressed with the edge screen then go for the note 4. The features are pretty much the same sans the edge screen and you also get a slightly bigger battery and screen because of that.

Beautiful phone, smooth user interface, build quality very high (despite previous reported concerns about this). Edge screen does enhance user functionality from a different dimension altogether and is accurate and responsive to touch (accidental taps are actually rare during everyday handling). Screen quality is fantastic and plays videos/view photos beautifully. S-pen very sensitive and responsive. Camera (front & back) quality one of the best. Multitasking smooth and effective with multi-window function. Speaker is loud & clear albeit only available from back of phone. Battery lasts 1-1.5 days with moderate-heavy use, will last longer (up to 2 days) on light-mod use. Ultra power saving mode very handy if low batt and can stretch standby time out to 5-7 days. Fast charging will get you back up & running in no time.
