Background and Identification

The Galaxy S6 Edge is Samsung's curved-screen version of the S6. Internally, the Edge is nearly identical to the S6—it has the same octa-core processor, 16 megapixel camera, wireless charging capability, and the whole host of features offered by the S6. Although both devices have the same resolution, the Edge's screen allows for new gestures—configurable for either left- or right-handed persons—and notification systems.
