Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge Unboxing
I got my unit from Smart Infinity last April 18, 2015 - the same day that the handset saw formal launch in the country - and flew to Boracay to experience some of the PAL Mabuhay Miles travel perks that came with my plan. Allow me to share with you some SGS6Edge unboxing photos that I took just to give you an idea of what you'd get should you go with this model this year.
More than being an elegant defining physical characteristic of the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge, the curved display also provides at least a couple of practical uses. First, you can rub it when the display is turned off and it will show you the time as well as recent notifications so you won't have to turn on the display and use more resources. And second, you can customize it to give you quick access to your favorite contacts from the TouchWiz Home Screen and App Drawer; This is particularly useful for loved ones or workmates that you need to get in touch with regularly.

Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge Unboxing
I got my unit from Smart Infinity last April 18, 2015 - the same day that the handset saw formal launch in the country - and flew to Boracay to experience some of the PAL Mabuhay Miles travel perks that came with my plan. Allow me to share with you some SGS6Edge unboxing photos that I took just to give you an idea of what you'd get should you go with this model this year.
The S6 Edge ships with Samsung's new packaging design that has a very subdued look reminiscent of the Apple iPhone 6 and 6 Plus boxes.
At the bottom of the outer sleeve the Korean company listed down the handset's key technical specifications and features. My 32GB Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge is equipped with a 5.1 inch Quad HD (2K) SuperAMOLED display, a 16 MegaPixel autofocus camera with LED flash and ISOCELL sensor, 5 MegaPixel front cam with Beauty Mode and Auto HDR, Wireless Charging capability, 4G LTE Cat6 support, and 64-bit Octa Core Exynos 7420 chipset.
Pulling off the outer sleeve reveals the actual SGS6Edge white box.
I got my unit from Smart Infinity so it comes with this iridescent sticker on its packaging serving as proof of authenticity.
Thankfully, Samsung has done away with that annoying screen sticker with green prints that previous Galaxy handsets used to ship with.
I call Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge 'The Most Handsome Smartphone Samsung Has Released To Date'; Do you agree with me or not? Share your thoughts about this gorgeous smartphone via our comments section below.
The S6 Edge's display has the same size as that of the regular model but its screen gently curves down either sides, which I think gives it a more sleek and elegant look.
More than being an elegant defining physical characteristic of the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge, the curved display also provides at least a couple of practical uses. First, you can rub it when the display is turned off and it will show you the time as well as recent notifications so you won't have to turn on the display and use more resources. And second, you can customize it to give you quick access to your favorite contacts from the TouchWiz Home Screen and App Drawer; This is particularly useful for loved ones or workmates that you need to get in touch with regularly.
Scratch-resistant Gorilla Glass 4 panels on the front and back parts of this handset sandwich the CNC-prepared anodized aluminum frame.
That's the complete retail package. Let's check out the items one by one.
Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge's headphones have silicon buds that funnel the sound directly to your ear canal; I think its design is very similar to that of the new Apple Earpods.
Standard microUSB 2.0 to USB cable. Samsung has done away with the microUSB 3.0 port (like what was on the Note 3) on its flagship level releases.
Quick Start Guide and Warranty Certificate; There's also a soft copy of the user manual that users can find in the phone's Settings.
Use this pin to open NanoSIM card tray found on the handset's top panel.
