Huge noob about this stuff, hopefully right section or area where i can ask questions,.
i am in china and want to buy the galaxy 6 / edge when it comes out:
question, if i head back to the US and have a chinese S6 will that cross over?
I googled around and there are 2 versions for the s6 and 2 for the edge for China and similar 4 different models for international, does the Chinese model limit me somehow?
If so, is it possible to do some manual tweaks to make it fully functional in the US or does buying it mean its permanently locked out due to some hardware thing?
ALso, has anyone tried the subtitles on the edge? Do they appear curved or how does that display? I haven't seen any reviews on subtitled movies with the edge, so just curious, i would prefer the S6 but in China the only 64 gb model releasing is the edge....
are we allowed to bump? ....
gonna keep bumping till banned....
bumpbumpbumppp
Just purchased a S6 Edge 64GB G9250, since i bought a international version i want to test everything out and make sure it doesnt have any defects before my 30 days expire. What are some known issues on the edge that i should look out for? Thanks !:fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:

Hi Guys,
I come from a 32GB/3GB RAM, D855 LG G3 in Gold + 64GB Extreme Pro SD. I had my LG G3 since July 2014. My LG G3 toasted last week beyond repair, so Amazon refunded me $700 that was the price i paid for it. I'm currently in the search for a new smartphone as, i am currently cellphone-less. Thinking about the options available on market, even if i'm in an emergency and need to get hold of a new phone asap... i think i can hold on until August 13th to be sure what Samsung is going to come out with the Galaxy S6 Edge + and Note 5.
Currently i'm in search of a new 64GB or 128GB storage phone.
My contenders are:
Galaxy S6 Edge 64GB or 128GB (if i can stretch the money) Emerald Green --- Second option: Platinum Gold.
Galaxy S6 Edge + 64GB.
Galaxy Note 5 64GB .
Motorola X Pure Edition 64GB + Customs backs of the Moto Maker.
I'm not interested in the LG G4, as i just come from a G3 and want something with a more premium build and the G4 is not enough for me. Between these options what would you think it's best?? Per the news it seems the Note 5 would be lacking, - nothing new. The Edge + has my attention, but at least i would need to go 64GB or more if i grab any internal storage phone. Motorola X Pure Edition seems like the most sensible choice, but i like the design more of a Gold or Green Galaxy Edge. I'm willing to go up to $900 for my new cell phone as i just have been refunded $700 for my dead G3. More than $900 would be crazy, still $900 is quite steep.
What others phone should i consider if i'm looking for top specs and new devices?
I prefer devices with SD cards, but it is not a deal breaker. I never had a device with internal storage only. So this... scares me that i may run out of 64GB easily. 32GB i know is not enough for me. 64GB could work but i had more space on my old LG G3. 128GB would be ideal but the prices are $$$$. So out of internal storage Samsung's as of today... maybe the 64GB would be the happier medium.
Please guys, some comments would be nice as always more heads think better than one. If i get a Samsung, i want it to be the edge as i'm a girl... and love the looks of it better than the regular S6.., Green is my 1st option but it is the most expensive, i'm between Green and the Platinum Gold ... out of there, i wont even consider the other colors because those are the one's that i like.
I had a Notes, Galaxy, do not have a problem with phablets or big phones as well as smaller ones. I just need a phone ASAP- and since i have a considerable credit, i want to get a nice one.
Thanks
Flip a coin dude & best of luck
answer is easy enough : " read slowly smartphones names, and make the choice according to your own emotions ( what sounds fitting right with you ) "
Example : " S6 Edge " = " S Sex eGee " = " is sex and G " = " Essex and G " = " S X and G " = " is X and G " and so on....
Example 2 " iPhone 3gs " = " fan of I and fridges " = " i FOne 3gs " = " i F1 fridges " etc etc.....
there is nothing really wrong in smartphones you mentioned, it's all about making the impulse purchase.
i have all iPhone 3gs, LG G3 D855, and S6 Edge, what i miss the most is iOS 3 or 4.

Because every Motorola phone I have ever owned has hard bricked do to no fault of my own, I would advise against the new Moto x. The s6 edge plus is an overpriced s6 edge with an inferior processor if all leaks are correct. You cannot go wrong with the s6 edge. Sexiest phone on the market. But the note 5 sounds like the only phablet I would ever dream of. If productivity is your purpose go with that. Otherwise choose what I chose, the galaxy s6 edge.

How is inferior the processor of the edge + in comparison of the s6 edge? I thought one was an exynos 7420 and the one on the edge + was to be believed an exynos 7422. I'm just holding to see if any of the newer devices could sport an SD card even if rumors have said that the Note 5 and edge+ could come sans SD.
Thanks for the motorola. I didn't know that about moto. Has anyone had bad experienced with Moto too?
I'm just holding on to see if Edge + or Note 5 could come with an SD card slot by some miracle. And also for the price drop on the galaxy edges on Amazon.
I have had my Galaxy S6 Edge 64gb in Galaxy Black for a few months now.
I keep a (small by audiophile standards) music library in storage, and several audiobooks.
A multitude of games, and other misc apps.
and my memory is still sufficient.
As long as you aren't the hoarder type, internal memory isin't a huge issue
Go well sir, and buy with your brain.
weigh up the features, and what you want, then calculate the costs.
S6 edge is by far one of the best built phones available. Looks stand out and premium. Camera fantastic.
However battery life is awful and ovepriced.
Screen not big enough.

I heard that the s6 edge plus has the snapdragon 808 while the note 5 will either have the exynos 7422 or 7420. They will both lack an sd card.. As for Moto, it may just be bad luck for me but due to my experiences. I would not recommend that
I went in and bought in early August the Green S6 Edge 64GB. Got the Wireless charging pad in black + 2 Spigen Neo Hybrid cases (Crystal Clear + Neo Hybrid in Gunmetal) + Caseology Case + Amfilm screen protectors + PS4 Magma Red controller (Yes to play games). Hehe i went all in!!!! I've been loving it, sometimes i thought if i held for the Note 5 but..... 64GB Note 5 are still around $900. I am very glad i went with the 64GB version as i already filled it half. I love my purchase and my Emerald Green S6 Edge, it was the color i wanted! and even looks more pretty than the Gold imho.
Hi! Do you have any physical preferences such as screen size, curved screen or not, and are you interested in flashing custom ROMS, kernels, mods ,etc. ?
I decided to give a try and take Samsung for the first time. Yesterday I opened this TOP Android model with HQ display and then saw this.
What's this, group of death pixels? It's possible to RMA G925F version through Samsung in U.S? I have bough this from Ebay as brand new sealed but without return option.
Thanks.
Hi everyone, I have a question I can't seem to find an answer to.
I have a Galaxy S6 Edge (SM-G925I), and one of the main reasons I bought it is because of the incoming release of Samsung Pay in Brazil, my country. But, our local Samsung branch claims the S6 and S6 Edge variants sold here lack support for MST, and consequently, Samsung Pay.
Compatibility
The Samsung Pay only works on some of Samsung's high-end smartphones, in addition to one or other intermediary. MST we have the Galaxy Note 5, Galaxy S6 Edge + and intermediate Galaxy A, in addition to the new S7 and S7 Edge. (Interestingly, the service was announced by the Galaxy S6, but Samsung says that the Brazilian version has no MST, only NFC.)

The S6 Edge+ (SM-G928G), Note 5 (SM-N920G) and A7 2016 (SM-A710M) supposedly support the feature fine.
My question is: is it true? Does the G920I and G925I really lack this functionality? Or is it some corporate BS to push their newest devices?
Is there any way I can tell if my phone supports MST?
Bump
I guess no one knows, due to the lack of answers?
