Samsung France lists the Galaxy S6 Edge+ ahead of launch

It looks like Samsung is trying to beat all the leaksters and rumour mongers in giving away the details of the Galaxy S6 Edge+ ahead of its August 13th launch. The Korean conglomerate has taken the matters in its own hands by briefly posting the pre-registration details of the much anticipated devices on its French website.

In what is being seen as a staged faux pas, the listing confirmed that the upgraded version of the current Samsung flagship will indeed be called the Galaxy S6 Edge+ and it will look exactly like its predecessor, albeit large in size. The post also reveals that Samsung will be throwing in some freebies the Galaxy S6 Edge+ including the company’s Level One Bluetooth headphones as well as free music streaming for the first three months.

The preorders will apparently open from August 21 and will continue till September 3, making it the possible release date of the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge+.

For those who are wondering whether the curved screen of the Galaxy Edge+ will be more useful than its predecessor, we have some news. A press shot floating online shows that Samsung will let users add up to five app shortcuts to the Edge screen. The current Galaxy S6 Edge allows you to add up to five contacts to the curved ticker, and you call and text them by simply swiping from the Edge panel to the main display.

But is this feature along with a larger screen enough to make you want buy the Galaxy S6 Edge+? Or you would rather go for the plain and powerful Samsung Galaxy S6, the budget beast Motorola Moto G (2015), or the upcoming Galaxy Note 5 that has a large screen as well as a curved display.
