Yeah that's what's making me think I will send mine back with the courier. One big benefit to the white model.
Got a tip for us?

Galaxy S6 Edge?
I am interested, but I have already bought iPhone 6 a few months ago.
If it's not that expensive, i would consider purchasing one.

There's a chance that in the 4-5 days that all will take the white or gold could the be out of stock as there is only a limited quantity of edge in stock.
Could end up being a total PITA

Lol. Both
Looks like pre-order date on amazon slipped for the green one anyway - now no date advertised at all and samsung.de reccons shipping of the green is May 22

Ouch... sorry to hear that.
Anybody else get a 268.02mb software update ?
edit..
Few issues already. some widgets like Google Music no longer resize correctly. At 4X1 they are broken.
Looks like I'm going to have to go to Google Now launcher or Nova Prime.

Yeah strange I think it's just the angle. I'll take another shot for you to show you difference.

Really love how this things fits in my hand and in my pocket compared to the N4 and 6+. I can really use the S6 Edge one handed.
But the fingerprint scanner is starting to let me down. It started out great but now only accurate about 60 percent of the time. Disappointed in that.

Thanks.Ok there IS a big difference, thank you!
The edge is looking stunning btw
Yeah I was hesitant about the black but it's nice now I have it. I'm just setting up Nova launcher. New touchwiz app drawer icon sizes we're bumming me out and the animation is terrible.

Yeah feels so small. Feels more like the alpha.
Fingerprint scanner has been alright for me so far I've scanned my thumb twice to make sure it's doubly accurate and so far so good.
Gotta admit - having seen the gold one in person - it looks gorgeous .. really more platinum than gold ..
Tempted yet again
Ha you're an addict
That edge looks stunning wow
Thanks all.
On US models they have in silver on the back Galaxy S6 or Galaxy S6 Edge.
We don't get that here.

One downside so far. Whilst the phone feels very fast. I am noticing it has to refresh content of apps. Tapatalk in particular is a pain because of this. It is still a very ram hungry Samsung device.
Surprising to see that new touchwiz breaks some Google widgets like Google play music. I'm now back to Nova Launcher where they all work except that nice Samsung 3D clock weather widget doesn't work in Nova or Google now.
Fingerprint scanner is working good for me.
I really like the people edge. Handy if you talk go same few people regularly.

Better that big fat Verizon or something like that. May have changed my mind again lol. My all time favourite case - UAG, comes only in black ish and I really want the UAG for the Edge, so may go Black after all.
My local shop got the 64GB version in stock and I'll be leaving for the shop in ten. Will see what it looks like
Oh and the case:

Yeah, it's the allusion of no bezel, I guess. It just makes the device feel "widescreen" if you will.
Must try video next
I do find screen bit hard to see in outdoor sunlight. Oh and black is definitely a fingerprint magnet but will be getting a spigen case for it later in the afternoon.
