If you like it more than saving with an S6 go for it. I am still using S3 time so time for me to upgrade. Like the idea of the edge but unsure how useful it would be as I want a Moto watch now too  |

"Does the curved edge of the screen do anything useful?"
You can read texts and see missed calls if phone is on its back at eye level. Can also see the night clock and read news feeds from the edge screen.
But I find the S6 Edge has a very good battery life, a lot faster loading pages and the camera is brilliant. The best phone made by Samsung so far. In my opinion much better than new Apple phones. |

That seems quite a niche feature...I don't think my (non curved screen) phone is ever lying down at eye level. |

Sorry no it isn't. Ignoring hte fact that Samsung are not selling the Note 5 in Europe (and therefore the UK), the Note 5 has the S-Pen and less memory than the S6 Edge +
Those who like the Note range are probably better sticking with the Note 4. However if you just fancy a large screen version of the S6 and are happy with the curved screen then the S6 Edge + (especially the larger memory version) is probably a good phone.
Personally I'd be a bit wary of that screen, wonderful as it it, it will be very hard to protect and far too easy to damage.
If it wern't for the fact that I have fried the curcuits around the headphone socket, I would be keep my Note 3 and change to a sim only contract. As it is I will probably get the Note 4, and hope Samsung comes to their senses and produce a proper replacement in two years time. |

Last year's Note Edge used the edge to display notifications and provide hot links various apps, nice wee feature. |
