Jump the ship or Wait for Note 5?

[sup3r1or]

Hello everyone.

Wanted to ask you, should I jump the ship with S6 Edge or wait for note 5? At first I was in love with S6edge, but after having held it in the hands without a case it felt very uncomfortable. Anyway at the time when I almost decided to go for S6, here in Thailand there isn't 64 GB version of S6 avaliable . S6edge is here 64GB for almost 1000 usd.

I was thinking if I should wait for Note 5? September seems to be a long way off stilll I never had note, but used it several times. Idea of stylus is quite nice plus a huge battery, plus a rum our of all in one CPU. However if they increase the size of Note for next version it will be an overkill for me.

I would wait and see what Samsung have to offer in the coming months tbh - if you don't need a new phone the now then don't go for a phone that you don't enjoy holding - as holding a phone is one of the main functions you will do

Samsung are planning a S6 edge plus or something along the lines of that, it might turn out to be a variant of the Note 5 but only time will tell. If you don't need a phone the now, wait and see

I took my friends Edge with case on it, that felt normal and fine. Without it it is quite uncomfortable. S6Edge plus is just a bigger version of same phone with Snapdragon 808 no quickcharge support (LG G4 has same problem)

There has been no confirmed details about the S6 edge plus - we don't even know if that's it name. My point to you is to wait and see what comes out if you can wait.

What bothers me the most is Samsung insider and other places say that Samsung will fix RAM management problem in S6 Plus, since when does a fix comes as a feature in new phones? What about all those that bought Edge already? This kind of stuff pisses me off.

Yeah I totally agree, their software update process is a shambles. My wife has a Note 3 and that still doesn't have Lollipop! It's almost a year old now. The RAM fix was supposed to be addressed in the new software update rolling out the now (5.1.1 I think) but it looks like it won't be addressed until after the Summer!

At this point, I would recommend to wait and see what the Note 5 has to offer unless you absolutely need a phone now.
3 months isn't that long to wait, just keep your mind busy with other things

I've been holding out for news on the note 5. It's hard because I really want an s6 edge but that's just my Desire to upgrade and have something cool.
So note 5 info cannot get here quick enough

I have another week to make up my mind if to return the edge. I know I would like a larger phone but the edge is really beautiful. I'm pretty sure I would not want a note sized phone with the s6 edge screen.

Is this a spotting of the new Note 5? Looks like the metal body like th s6. It is in this advertisment sitting next to the Gear VR.
