Hopefully someone like Anker will come out with a quick charge compatible portable battery powered USB device charger. A must for the S6. Would he nice for other phones too.

Couldn't hold off... Ordered a 32gb black sapphire today. Hoping it ships Monday and I get it Wednesday night, because I'm leaving for vacation Thursday.

Sprint tweeted that the S6 will start shipping out on Monday. Hope the S6 Edge is included as well.

Gold platinum for me, black and white is a little too common so I went with the gold just to be different but it does look the best though except for the emerald green.  I wish sprint had the emerald green.

Yeah, I think I'm just going to order the Gold/Platinum from Amazon and see what happens being they're listing a 32 GB model and nobody else is.

It might be an incorrect listing, and knowing Amazon, it could result in them giving me the 64 GB at the same price, or getting some type of gift card for their mistake. Worst case, I get what I ordered.

So here's my unfortunate dilemma: I just found out I'll be out of town from the 10-13th. Now I'm thinking of just ordering the gold one since I'm going to lose those several days anyways.

What color do y'all like the best?

I've read the white hides fingerprints the best, but that it also reflects light a little too much. The black sapphire shows the fingerprints the most. I'd really like to see the gold one in person, but nobody has it as a demo.

Yeah, noticed that the other day.

Well everyone should receive the 32gb models by the 10th if not earlier. The only one that is delayed is the gold model which for right now is 64gb only,thats the one I ordered and they said two to three weeks from order date. I figure they are under promising and they may ship them sooner.

Amazon is listing the gold/platinum model in 32GB. Unless it's an error, this is the only listing for this that I've seen.

Yeah, kinda odd. Not sure what's up with that.

 

I am hoping that Sprint will start shipping, following T-Mobile's lead.

How are TMobile customers getting theirs already? I thought these weren't available until the 10th?

The activation fees are nigh unto impossible to get removed or waived. I fussed at them on 2 separate calls and threatened to cancel and eventually they gave me 2 consecutive 15 dollar credits.

I guess the silence in this thread a day before launch is somewhat representative of many folks reaction to the device as a whole...

Honestly, with or without the special uses, I think it will be easier to differentiate between the slide in for the hamburger menu which most apps have now, and just a tap on the left edge of the screen for scrolling. The rolled edge will make that swipe in feel more natural and maybe result in less accidental scrolls or menu swipe ins.

 

But in reality, yeah, it's just a style and engineering marvel. Plus it keeps the phone narrower, which would help with one handed use.

They have a SDK for the edges, so I am sure that people will make use of them in the future. Especially awesome devs like Nova Launcher.

The Note Edge does have more functionality but it looks awkward & even ugly, in my personal opinion. My friend just bought one but after just one day, the novelty has already worn off on him & he doesn't like the asymmetric look that much.

 

To me, symmetry is important & regardless of function, I really like the S6 Edge b/c of its uniqueness and I think the device looks sexy, LOL~ Can't wait for my gold Edge~!

As I said, I'm pretty much sold just on the beautiful design. I just wish there were more uses for it.

Finally got a chance to go to best buy and tinker with the s6 and the edge. The edge is beautiful and I'm nearly sold.

I do agree with the reviews that said it was nearly useless though, as there isn't much it does other than the couple minor uses for contacts and notifications. Currently it seems like it's more of just a fashion/design novelty right now.

Is it just me or does the Note Edge have more actual screen on the curved portion than the S6 Edge? Maybe it's just a play on the eyes due to the asymmetric look. However, it could use more function like the Note Edge's curve.

Has anyone seen talk of more use for the curved edges?

I saw someone mention on a TMobile FB post that theirs was already shipped.

Has anyone had the chance to compare rf performance yet? All the units I found only had wifi and no cellular service activated.

Did you guys get a ship date?

Tell yourself that the G4 will be announced soon and likely come out in May. Just hold out until you see what that device has in store before committing to the S6 for 2 yrs.

I also only have to go 1 year at a time because I can alternate line upgrades and give mine to my wife. [emoji6]

Trying to hold off from taking the dive early. Really wanting to see the RF results to make sure it isn't a complete dud RF wise before buying.

I'm going to have to keep from wandering into best buy or a Sprint store for a couple weeks.

Are the preorders supposed to ship out on 4/10, or sooner?

Im not sure about the preorder starting tomorrow but ill try and find out. They unfortunately arent mine just the demo s6 and demo s6 edge samsung sent us.

Is Sprint going to have the preorder up tomorrow?

Is that yours Rocket?

Ouch!
