Description

Best described as a "super-sized" Galaxy S6 edge, the Samsung Galaxy S6 edge+ differs with a bigger, 5.7-inch display (a 0.6 inch increase), larger 3000mAh battery (a 400mAh increase), and bigger overall size. Hardware-wise, we're once again looking at an Exynos 7420 SoC, driving the mains alongside 4GB of RAM. Memory choices are the usual as well - there are 32GB, 64GB, and 128GB storage variants available. As in the original phablet, there is no microSD card slot, and neither a removable battery.

This device is also known as Samsung SM-G928V, Samsung SM-G928A, Samsung SM-G928T, Samsung SM-G928P, Samsung SM-G928I, Samsung SM-G928R4, Samsung Galaxy S6 edge plus

Is the best phone I had ever.. If it had better camera like lg g4, would be the best all the time. Samsung must continue this phone to new version. Nothing to say any more. Let's edge plus to take the ios.. Android will never be top of the ios unfortunately.

Good phone, although carrying the basic Samsung UI it's an awesome cellular device for everyday usage, I would chose this phone over any other to be honest. When buying this phone, it was either this one or the note 5, and I chose this phone and haven't regretted it.
