I just got my Note Edge 3 days ago and so far I've been finding myself using the edge panel quite a bit. I feel like there could have been some better utilization of the edge screen though. One of the main things that I miss from my Moto X is the heartbeat feature and I wish that Samsung would have worked something like that into the edge screen. I love the night clock feature but I wish I could either leave it on all the time or set it up to slowly blink on and off like the heartbeat feature on the Moto X. I'm with you guys too, some brightness settings would be great too. I'm just hoping someone comes up with some sort of work around in the root community I guess.
