Ergonomy of the edges on the S6 edge?

To anyone who tested the S6 edge out there, are the edges annoying when you're trying to pinpoint an area that is on the edges?
Is it going to significantly alter the ergonomy of the phone? *
I'm still hesitating whether I should take the S6 or the S6 edge, I don't want the edges to become an hassle when you're trying to use the phone on areas within the edges.

I don't know I am reserving judgement until I can actually hold one in my hand. Reviewers haven't come across as negative about it, it is different then again so were 5" phones once.

I just went back to Samsungs home page and stared at the Six Appeal images running, S6 down, S6 Edge up, S6 Edge down, S6 Up. When you want them both go up and down you start to say, do I really need the curved glass given the trade-offs. I don't know its really hard to decide, even playing with a Note 4 Edge I couldn't decide if it was worth it.

I played with the S6 and S6 Edge in store and found the S6 Edge to be uncomfortable to hold in comparison to the regular S6. The thinner aluminum band that surrounds the S6 Edge feels sharper and gives you less of an area to grip onto. The regular S6 feels more solid and gives you a more confident grip on the phone. While the edge screen looks great, I feel like the regular S6 will be the better buy.

Which country are you in? There are no S6s where I live.
