Check out the official announcement videos for the Samsung Galaxy Note 5 and Galaxy S6 Edge Plus
Samsung has just taken the wraps off the new Galaxy Note 5 and Galaxy S6 Edge Plus at its Unpacked event just hours ago. Both devices feature big 5.7-inch Super AMOLED Quad HD displays, a mostly-glass design and many other notable enhancements that will likely be welcomed by consumers.
Samsung has just published the official introduction videos for both handsets, showing off some of their unique features. The first intro video walks through the Note 5’s new and improved S Pen and note taking features, curved back plate for a more comfortable in-hand feel, and some of the new multitasking software features. The second introduction video gives us a good look at the S6 Edge Plus’ new features that take advantage of the larger edge display.

Samsung’s Galaxy S6 Edge+ can have apps pinned to its curve
The Galaxy S6 Edge+ is finally official, and with that comes tailor-made features for its curved design. One of those is Apps Edge, which lets users create up to five shortcuts for frequently used apps, offering quick access to them directly from the edge of the screen. It’s worth noting that a Samsung patent for Apps Edge was spotted last month; a similar feature was also found on the Galaxy Note Edge, though the same can’t be said for the newer Galaxy S6 Edge. At the moment, this appears to only be for the S6 Edge+, but we reached out to Samsung to find out if S6 Edge owners can expect to get it as well.

Samsung’s Galaxy Note 5 gets a keyboard cover
Those rumors that Samsung would launch an oddball keyboard add-on? They’re true. The Korean tech firm has unveiled a Keyboard Cover for the Galaxy Note 5 that, as the name suggests, gives you both a case and a hardware keyboard for those times when you need to punch out long messages. Samsung is shy on details, but it looks like the screen adapts to the keyboard. There are conventional navigation buttons to replace the capacitive ones you’ve lost, as well. We can’t imagine too many Note 5 owners picking this up (part of the point is that big screen), but it could hit the spot if you’re jonesing for a BlackBerry-like experience on an Android phone.

Samsung teases round Gear S2 smartwatch
Samsung has dropped a surprise at its Unpacked 2015 event by showing off a new Gear S2 smartwatch. The model appears to be a far cry from the original Gear S, however. Samsung has upped the style quotient considerably with a round watch face, metal body and new user interface. Given the naming convention (it lacks the “Galaxy” moniker that generally denotes Android), it likely runs on Samsung’s Tizen OS rather than Android Wear, like the original Gear S. Slideshow-312495
Another clear sign that this is not an Android Wear devices is the new UI design, which consists of a circle of apps arranged around the face. Samsung actually teased a round watch back in February, but that device did appear to be an Android Wear model. All we saw today was a quick glimpse of the hardware and watch face, but Samsung promised the Gear S2 would get a full reveal at IFA next month in Berlin.

Samsung’s Galaxy Note 5 isn’t coming to the UK
At Samsung’s big Unpacked event today, the company unveiled two new flagship phones: the Galaxy S6 Edge+ and Galaxy Note 5. But, as we’ve learned, only one of them is headed to the UK. The S6 Edge+ — a super-sized version of Samsung’s curved-screen beauty — will be up for preorder on August 18th, before its official launch on September 4th. No pricing information is available just yet, but one way or another, all the major carriers have effectively confirmed they’ll be ranging it, so no great surprises there. What is pretty surprising, though, is Samsung’s decision not to release the new Note 5 over here. In fact, S Pen diehards across Europe will be saddened to hear the Note 5 is only slated to launch in the US and Asia — at least for now, anyway. Samsung told us that it hasn’t ruled out a European release entirely, but it certainly isn’t happening this year. As to the reason? Samsung hasn’t volunteered one yet, but we’ll let you know if/when we manage to track one down.

Samsung finally makes the Galaxy Note 5 official, sports 4 GB of RAM and a refined design
After months of rumoring and speculation, Samsung has finally taken the wraps off of their 2015 Galaxy Note device. The announcement came a little earlier in the year than usual, probably to beat the iPhone 6S to market, but I think most people will be happy to get their hands on this thing as soon as possible.
Much of the hardware on the Galaxy Note 5 is the same as on the Galaxy S6. You’ll find the same Exynos processor and an identical camera, although the RAM has been bumped up to 4 GB over the S6’s 3 GB. There’s still no removable back, so no SD card or replaceable battery, but the Note 5 will come standard with 32 GB of storage. Samsung will be offering a 64 GB variant as well, but it doesn’t look like you’ll be able to find a 128 GB version this time around.
Screen resolution mirrors what’s on the S6, and the 5.7-inch display is identical in size to what we’ve seen on the Note 4 and Note 3 in the past couple years. Fortunately, Samsung has done a lot of work in the design department, so you’ll find that the Note 5 is considerably slimmer and lighter than previous models. The back of the device is curved, making holding the phablet much easier, too.
The S-Pen is getting a handful of new features, and the actual design of the pen has finally been improved, too. There won’t be an auto-ejecting S-Pen like we’ve seen in some rumors, but the bottom of the pen can be clicked and slightly extended, making it easier to pull it out of the phone instead of scraping it with your fingernails. The software and functionality has picked up some new tricks, including a quick app launcher for the pen and a way to quickly jot down notes while the Note’s screen is off.
The underlying OS is exactly what you’d expect. You’ll find Android 5.1 running the show, with Samsung’s typical TouchWiz overlay. They haven’t added a ton of new functionality from the S6, but there are a few new things to play with in the software.
The Note 5 should officially be available on August 21st of this year, beating the new iPhone by several weeks and historically coming out way before than other Note phones.

Samsung announces Galaxy Note 5, Galaxy S6 Edge+ for August 21
As per the norm, all major wireless providers will offer the plus-sized handsets
As if we might have expected anything else, Samsung today formally revealed its annual Galaxy Note smartphone. Set to arrive in just over a week’s time, the Samsung Galaxy Note 5 is the 2015 take on the larger flagship experience. Additionally, Samsung also revealed the successor/sibling to its curved-edge Galaxy Note Edge and Galaxy S6 Edge with the Galaxy S6 Edge+.
Samsung Galaxy Note 5
If you’re looking for a revolution, you won’t find it here. The specs change little from last year’s iteration, making the Note 5 a simple evolution. Indeed, the hardware is much like that found in the Galaxy S6 launched earlier this year.
Powered by Android 5.1, the Galaxy Note 5 packs a 5.7-inch display at 2560 x 1440 pixel resolution (518ppi). Although it’s the same size screen as that found in last year’s model, the overall size of the devices has been trimmed down a shade.
In terms of processing power, this year’s model employs Samsung’s own octa-core Exynos chip; four cores at 2.1GHz and four cores running at 1.5GHz. To bolster performance, the Note 5 uses 4GB RAM, up from 3GB in last year’s model.
Storage capacities are a somewhat of a bummer; only 32GB and 64GB options are available and there’s no microSD expansion slot.
Battery has been dropped down to 3000mAh for this generation so we’re interested in seeing what sort of impact that has in usage. Betting on a cord-free future, the phone comes equipped with fast, wireless charging; Samsung promises a 0-100% charge in two hours.
As for cameras, the Galaxy Note 5 offers up a 16-megapixel f/1.9 sensor on the rear with a host of software enhancement modes. Around front we find a 5-megapixel shooter which should be more than enough for selfies.
Like it did for the Galaxy S6, Samsung has opted for the metal and glass approach in this year’s plus-sized phone. While it looks great and has a premium feel, it trades off removable batteries and external storage. As to whether that matters to the average user base, that varies per person.
The Samsung Galaxy Note 5 also includes the digital fingerprint scanner that’s found in the Galaxy S6. What’s more, there’s also a heart rate sensor on the rear of the device.
Because this is a “Note” model we’re dealing with, you’ll, of course, find an S-Pen digital stylus. And, keeping with its own tradition, Samsung has improved this year’s version yet again.
This time around the stylus has a unique click-in release mechanism. Software has been given a punch up here with enhanced Air Command, PDF markup, and other little touches. Another cool feature we’re keen to try is the Instant Memo which lets users jot notes on the screen even when the display is otherwise turned off.
The Samsung Galaxy Note 5 will be sold in black and white options through Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile, Sprint, and US Cellular. Pricing has not been disclosed so expect your service providers to disclose their own respective costs. Pre-orders begin today.
Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge+
Save for the omission of an S Pen digital stylus, specifications for the S6 Edge+ is largely identical to the Note 5. That is, more specifically, in terms of the hardware details that comprise the internals.
The key feature of the S6 Edge+ is its curved 5.7-inch display. In short, if you like the idea of the Galaxy S6 Edge but simply want something larger, then this is the device for you.
Like the Galaxy Note 5, the Galaxy S6 Edge+ will be launched across the major wireless providers on August 21. Pricing is not defined yet so expect separate announcements in short order. Pre-orders start today at 3PM.

Samsung Galaxy Note 5 hands-on
All the rumors are finally over as Samsung took to the stage this morning to announce its latest large-screen handset, the Samsung Galaxy Note 5. In the past, the Note series has generally taken a different design approach from the Galaxy S series, but one of the first things you’ll notice about he Note 5 is that it will strongly remind you of the Galaxy S6 series, for better or worse.
Is the Korean manufacturer’s “true flagship” all we were expecting? This phone is huge, but we have managed to get both hands all over it and are ready to give you our first look at the Samsung Galaxy Note 5. Let’s jump right into it, shall we?
Design
If you think the Samsung Galaxy S6 is a beauty, you will also love the Galaxy Note 5’s aesthetics. This is because the new handset adopts the design language that was introduced with the S6 series.
The Note 5 has a sleek unibody design which consists of a couple materials. There’s a metal edge all around the handset, while glass covers the front and back. One large difference is that this phone has a couple edged sides like on the Galaxy S6 Edge, but these are on the back. This will give the user a much better grip on the rounder rear, not to mention the fact that it happens to look great.
My only gripe is that there is still a protruding bump around the back camera. The flash and the heart-rate monitor are located right next to this shooter. Everything else is where you would expect it to be. We can find the volume rocker on the upper-left, the power button on the right side, a home button/fingerprint reader right below the screen and a SIM card slot on the top side of the phone. And we can’t forget that S-Pen slot, which is located on the bottom-right and operates via a spring-loaded mechanism.
The Samsung Galaxy Note 5 looks great, but I would be a little worried about its unwieldy nature. Larger smartphones are usually more prone to accidents, and the Note 5 isn’t exactly thin, either. We will have to test it more to pass judgement.
Display
The Samsung Galaxy Note 5 comes with a massive 5.7-inch Super AMOLED panel with a QHD (2560x1440p) resolution and a 515 ppi pixel density. Samsung smartphones are known for featuring some of the best displays in the market, so we are sure the Note 5 won’t disappoint. Its high resolution will ensure all text, images and videos are as crisp as ever. And if you like deep blacks are vibrant colors, Super AMOLED screens are king at offering those.
Hardware & Performance
We can assume the Samsung Galaxy Note 5 will be just as fast as the Galaxy S6; it sports very similar specs. Inside it you can find a powerful 2.1 GHz octa-core Exynos 7420 processor backed by a Mali-T760 MP8 GPU. In addition, those 4 GB of RAM memory should keep your multi-tasking sessions smoother than ever.
We all know speed and power don’t make a great phone; there’s plenty of other factors to consider. Let’s start by touching on storage options, which are not too varied. You can opt between 32 GB or 64 GB of internal memory. Need more? Then you better look somewhere else, because this phone has no microSD card slot. It also has no removable battery, which is something we suspected would happen. The 3000 mAh battery might seem a bit small here, but on the bright side, you will find wireless charging and quick charging support which at least helps make up a little for the samller battery.
Returning hardware features include the fingerprint reader, heart-rate monitor and the famous S-Pen Samsung fans love so much.
Software
The Samsung Galaxy Note 5 is blessed with Android 5.1.1 Lollipop and takes advantage of the latest TouchWiz iteration. As with many other things in the Note 5, this is the same we have seen on the Samsung Galaxy S6. At least it’s a more toned down version of Touchwiz, which gets rid of lame tutorial pop-ups and fancy gimmicks.
This is not to say Samsung’s new phablet is lacking in features, though. You can still find the theme store, a full set of toggles, multi-tasking features and the glorious S-Pen tool set all Note fans love. Samsung has also improved the S Pen experience a lot here.
First, the Note 5 includes a new way to start an action memo from a turned off screen. Simply pulling out the S Pen when the phone is locked will result in a slightly lit up black slate that will let you quickly write down a memo. There’s also a new scroll capture mode in Screen Write, allowing you to take and piece together multiple pictures of the same webpage in order to have the entire webpage available.
Finally, Samsung has also redesigned the Air Command window a bit. Fading out the background a bit, giving you access to the three main functions of the S Pen, but also a few application shortcuts.

Camera
This gadget packs the same 16 MP camera with f/1.9 aperture and OIS we found on the Galaxy S6. In short, this means the Galaxy Note 5 has the best smartphone camera in the industry! It’s also paired with a good 5 MP front-facing shooter, so you can keep on taking those awesome selfies.
While the hardware might not be different, the camera software has received a few notable additions. There is a new video collage mode, and there’s also a new live broadcasting to YouTube mode that makes it easy to do a live broadcast stream right from the camera app.

Wrapping up
So there you have it, guys! There are certainly pros and cons when taking on the S6 design, and while we do think this makes the new Note feel more premium than before, the design does omit some of the features we were hoping that the phone would continue to have such as a microSD slot and a removable battery. We can’t help but think some Note loyalists are going to be more than a little disappointed by some of the concessions made here, but really with all the features found inside, it really shows that Samsung has reached a far point in their smartphone game.
There’s a lot to like about the Note 5, especially for long-term fans of the series, even if there are also some very real steps backward. How you feel about the device will largely vary, depending on how much you care about the missing features that the Note 5 ditches from the Note 4.
What do you think about the Note 5 so far? Are you thinking about getting one? Let us know your thoughts in the comments.
Galaxy S6 Edge Plus announced: what you need to know
The Galaxy S6 Edge Plus has just launched, and we have all the key specs, features, and availability information right here.
“The Edge is here to stay,” said Lanh in our Galaxy S6 Edge review, and, several months later, the arrival of a Plus version of the device proves him right. Samsung is betting big on the Edge concept, and for good reason: despite a higher price, demand for the S6 Edge reportedly matched the “regular” Galaxy S6, and many market watchers contended that the S6 Edge is Samsung’s real flagship.
Now Samsung is taking its Edge into phablet territory. In New York, our Lanh Nguyen and Josh Vergara have got their hands on the S6 Edge Plus and Note 5, but for now, let’s go through the key details of the new Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge Plus.
Galaxy S6 Edge Plus specs, features, and software
| Display | 5.7-inch Super AMOLED 2560 x 1440 resolution, 515 ppi |
| Processor | Exynos 7420 |
| RAM | 4 GB |
| Storage | 32/64 GB, not expandable |
| Camera | 16 MP rear camera with OIS 5 MP front-facing camera |
| Connectivity | WiFi a/b/g/n/ac Bluetooth 4.1, NFC, GPS + GLONASS |
| Networks | LTE cat 6 300/50 |
| Battery | 3,000 mAh Fast charging WPC and PMA-compatible wireless charging |
| Software | Android 5.1 Lollipop with TouchWiz |
| Dimensions | 154.4 x 75.8 x 6.9mm, 153g |
| Colors | black sapphire, white pearl, gold platinum, green emerald |
Even if you’re just vaguely familiar with the original S6 Edge, the supersized Galaxy S6 Edge Plus will be no surprise. In almost every detail, the Plus is a larger S6 Edge, for better or worse.
The biggest deal here is the display: it’s a 5.7-inch Quad HD AMOLED panel, up from 5.1-inch on the S6 Edge. The pixel density went down a notch to 518 ppi – still, that’s at the top of the class and you will probably need a magnifying glass to truly see the difference in crispness between the two displays. Check out our hands-on S6 Edge vs Edge Plus comparison for more.
A bigger screen naturally makes for a bigger device: handling is still pretty good, provided you’re comfortable with large phones. Samsung added a couple of usability features to ease the necessity for finger acrobatics – you can triple tap the home button to bring up one-handed mode (basically, a smaller UI on one side of the phone) and the People Edge drawer can be moved up and down as you please.
The metal and glass build of the S6 Edge Plus is basically identical to that of other Samsung phones in this year’s class, and that means you won’t get a removable battery or microSD card. Just mentioning these omissions can spark raging firestorms in comments sections everywhere, but, at least, we have to appreciate that Samsung is consistent in its decisions.
It looks like the S6 Edge Plus will only be available in 32GB and 64GB options – Samsung dropped the 128GB option for some reason.
The 3,000 battery on the S6 Edge Plus is still pretty great, though the steady march of technology means there are competitors out there that come ahead by a big margin in this department.
In case you need it spelled out, no, there is no S Pen on the S6 Edge Plus – this is not the successor of the Note Edge, so no Air Command and screen doodling for you.
More about the Galaxy S6 Edge Plus build, specs, and features in our hands-on post.
The Galaxy S6 Edge Plus doesn’t bring any big, uhm, pluses on the software side. There are however a couple of new tricks we already mentioned: triple tap to activate one-handed mode (double tapping will still open up the camera) and a more powerful People Edge, which can now include shortcuts to your favorite apps.
Galaxy S6 Edge Plus pricing and availability
The Note 5 and S6 Edge Plus will go on pre-order from today in the US (all major carriers) and will begin shipping from August 20.
As for the price, we expect the S6 Edge Plus to be in the top tier, or around $800. Expect official details soon.

What’s your take?
There you have it: no surprises and no big differences between the S6 Edge Plus and the S6 Edge. That can be good or bad, depending on what you expected from the phone – in this day and age, some people just can’t go back to sub-5.5-inch, and for them, the S6 Edge Plus may be the ideal device. Then again, we also want our phones to surprise and delight us, and there’s very little new here.

Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge Plus hands-on and first impressions
Samsung took the wraps off of their latest high-end offerings at an event today, and along with the latest addition to the Note series, we also got our first look at the Plus iteration of their Galaxy S6 Edge flagship. We go hands-on and give you the first look at the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge Plus!
Design
If you loved everything about the Galaxy S6 Edge, but wished it featured a much bigger display, the Galaxy S6 Edge Plus is the device for you. The Plus moniker is usually indicative of a bigger and better version of the original, and that is exactly what you’re getting with the Galaxy S6 Edge Plus. When it comes to the design language, the S6 Edge Plus is identical to its smaller sibling in every way, from its sleek unibody metal and glass design with the metal frame thinning out along the curved edges of the glass, to the placement of all the buttons and ports.
It is obviously a much bigger phone, which makes one-handed usability a little more difficult when compared to the normal S6 Edge, but if you’re used to, and prefer, smartphones with bigger displays, this size isn’t going to be uncomfortable. The two curved edges along the sides are just as aesthetically pleasing to look at as they were before, but Samsung is looking to make a lot more useful this time around.
Display
Up front is a 5.7-inch Super AMOLED display with a Quad HD resolution, resulting in a pixel density of 515 ppi. The pixel density does take a small dip when compared to the smaller 5.1-inch display of the S6 Edge, but with both pixel counts well over 500 ppi, it’s not going to be noticeable. This screen provides everything you’d expect from a high-end Samsung display, including deep blacks, high brightness, saturated and vivid colors, and great viewing angles. With the additional display real estate, the S6 Edge Plus also provides a much better media consumption and gaming experience, as well as when browsing the web or reading text.
Performance and hardware
Under the hood, the Galaxy S6 Edge Plus features the same octa-core Exynos 7420 processor found with the S6 Edge, but with 4 GB of RAM instead. The extra gig of RAM certainly doesn’t hurt, and should make switching between a lot of applications an even smoother experience. So far, the device has been very responsive and snappy, which isn’t really surprising, as we’ve seen this processing package in action already with the smaller Galaxy S smartphones. Also contributing to this smooth performance is the latest toned version of the TouchWiz UI.
The S6 Edge Plus comes with 32 GB or 64 GB of on-board storage, but unfortunately, there is still no option for microSD card expansion, which makes the lack of a 128 GB version somewhat odd. The fingerprint scanner is still integrated into the tactile home button up front, and utilizes the touch type method that is much faster and more accurate than the swipe type implementation seen with 2014 Samsung flagships. The heart rate monitor is located on the back next to the camera.
On the battery front, the Galaxy S6 Edge Plus packs a 3,000 mAh unit that is not user replaceable. This is a fairly respectable capacity, but the much larger high resolution display it has to power does raise some concerns. That said, more thorough testing will of course be required before we can make any final judgments. Like the other Samsung flagships, you also get fast charging capabilities, and compatibility with both the PMA and Qi wireless charging standards.
Camera
The Galaxy S6 Edge Plus also comes with a 16 MP rear camera with a f/1.9 aperture and OIS, along with a 5 MP front-facing unit with a wide angle lens, which is identical to the camera setup found with its namesake. Considering the Galaxy S6 and the Galaxy S6 Edge cameras are widely regarded as some of the best in the business, it won’t be too much of a surprise if the story is the same with this camera as well.
You can still use the double tap of the home button to quickly launch the camera application, and while the camera app is largely the same, but Samsung has now added the ability to create video collages, allowing you to record 4 short clips and stitch them into a single video. You can also now create live broadcasts from something like Periscope, that can feed directly to YouTube, if you’re looking to share a quick moment with your followers on the fly.
Software
The Galaxy S6 Edge Plus will ship with Android 5.1.1 Lollipop with the latest version of TouchWiz on top. Just as was seen with the Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 Edge, this is a toned version of the TouchWiz UI that removes a lot of unnecessary features and bloat. One minor aesthetic change this time around is with regards to the icons, which are now squares with rounded corners, that make the UI look a lot cleaner and more uniform when compared to older versions.
All of the features from the Galaxy S6 Edge that take advantage of the dual edges, like night clock, information stream, edge lighting, and People Edge all make their way over to the Plus iteration, but Samsung has made a few key improvements that make these edge features a little more useful than before. Besides just contacts, the People Edge is now capable of housing any of your favorite applications as well, and the edge feature can also be easily accessed no matter where you are within the phone, and not just when in the homescreen.
The pull tab can also be relocated to anywhere along the left and right edges to make it easier to reach, especially if you have smaller hands. Since the Galaxy S6 Edge Plus is a much bigger device, Samsung has also added a triple tap of the home button shortcut to shrink the screen to a smaller size, to help with one handed usability. We’ve seen this feature before on other large screen devices of course, but the triple tap of the home button makes this a very quick and easy feature to access.
