Samsung unveils the Galaxy S6 Edge Plus and Galaxy Note 5: all … – 01net

Samsung has made official today in New York two new large smartphones: the highly anticipated Galaxy Note and the Galaxy 5 S6 Edge Plus. Both phablettes share many technical features, starting with the size of their screen, 5.7 inches. The only difference is significant, the Edge Over S6 uses the same curved screen as the Galaxy Edge S6 presented in Barcelona earlier in the year, while the Note 5 sports a flat slab much more traditional.

Question look, S6 Edge More akin therefore no more no less an Edge S6 largest (154.4 x 75.8 x 6.9 mm, 153 g) while the Galaxy Note 5 is very close to the S6 him that he, too, would have pushed a few millimeters (153 2 x 76.1 x 7.6 cm, 171 g). However, Note 5 also includes some mind the Edge, but this time in the back, bent in the same way on the sides.

The Galaxy S6 Edge Plus and Galaxy Note 5 are both equipped with a screen 5.7-inch AMOLED type, by definition QuadHD or 2560 by 1440 pixels. A definition similar to that of the latest S6 sold in April. The screen resolution of 518 dots per inch, very high, making it totally invisible to the naked eye, the pixels of the screen. We were able to take control of both devices, and from our initial findings, slabs of these two new smartphones are the same as those of raw S6. Which is among the best on the market today.



Under the hood, the same mechanics as the S6

Motor side, the two smartphones integrate a Exynos 7 with 8 cores (4 x 2.1 GHz, 4 x 1 5 GHz). Again, the spirit of the S6 is not as far as their work with this chip. Simply put, the Exynos mobile processor 7 is the strongest market in terms of pure performance. Far ahead of the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon include. But this raw power is not provided representative of the overall performance of the device, remember! Samsung in particular, the megahertz debauchery is sometimes marred by software optimizations … perfectible. A worry that may not know these S6 Edge Plus and Note 5, Samsung has decided to revise upwards the amount of RAM (4GB against 3 GB for S6). Both smartphones are naturally compatible 4G (Cat 6).



And the same picture 16 and 5 megapixel sensors

The main photo sensor Edge 6 Plus and Note 5 is identical to that of the latest Galaxy S6, namely a model 16 megapixel camera with aperture f / 1.9, which also has an optical stabilizer. A set that has already been proven in our tests of S6. The front camera has, he, 5 megapixel sensor, which also opens to f / 1.9. Both smartphones are of course able to capture videos in 4K. However
Samsung introduces new video editing functions. It will for example be possible to create a video composed of several sequences placed end to end, one in Slow Motion, and directly from the screen of smartphones.
To store all this data, it will take only internal storage, 32 or 64 GB depending on version. Too bad, we would have liked to have a MicroSD card reader to feel less cramped. Especially the big guys of the new phablettes would have allowed a priori.

What changes really

Ultimately, the improvements made by Samsung are rather software order, as mentioned the new video editing features higher. It will also be possible to send a video stream directly on Youtube with a feature developed in collaboration with Google. With the ability to stream that flows only in private mode smartphone to a close, for example.

Samsung also introduced a new version of SideSync utility, which allows you to use almost all functions of the smartphone on their computer screen when both are connected via USB.

With this release, it will become possible to run Android games on his mobile PC (or Mac), full screen. This function should also be available from the end of the month for the S6 and S6 current Edge. Ditto for the direct broadcast function on Youtube. Another innovation that should remain exclusive to the two newcomers, a new upscale audio supposed to process an MP3 rendering a piece 24 bit / 192 KHz. Even with the promise almost Bluetooth connections through a home codec. Our upcoming tests will review these two methods.

The Edge Over S6 has new functions to its curved edges. It will be possible to define a number of favorite contacts, as on the Edge S6, accessible with a simple flick of the finger on the edge, but also applications.

In the contacts list, the user can operate a number of interactions , including sending small drawings (type emoticons). A process that inevitably recalls the Apple Watch. It is likely, however, that Samsung unveiled at the IFA round watch able to do the same.

Finally, Samsung has worked on improving the load time and without induction. So while the battery capacity of the new models is superior to last S6 (3000 mAh against 2550), only 5 more minutes are needed to recharge fully wired. While in induction charging time from 180 minutes for the S6 and S6 Edge just 120 minutes for S6 More and Edge Note 5.

The Edge Over Galaxy S6 will be offered as pre-order August 21, a priori around 800 euros for the 32GB version, for availability in early September. The Galaxy Note 5, and it is a surprise, is currently not planned for the European market.
