First and foremost this is completely a new design. This is a completely different device constructed out of aluminium and glass. It feels really good.
Immediate reaction when seeing the galaxy S6 and S6 Edge for the first time exactly it looks familier. It's like some how the galaxy S5 got knocked out by IPhone 6. Now came the Galaxy different looking pro.
These are both equal full fledge flagship smart phones. Aside from the actual edges on the S6 Edge and a slightly larger battery everything is literally identical. As I mentioned before they both share the same screen but they both also share the same processors, 16MP rear camera, 3gigs of RAM and both are running lollypop. So really it comes down to whether or not you will take advantage of those edges. Where as in Galaxy Note Edge you are limited to one side, but this has two sides. You can actually choose which side you want to text to your contacts. The edges display the time. The advantage is it can reduce the power consumption. It is very similar to Moto X active display notifications. The edges can be colour coordinated with your contacts.
Display:
One hand ability is on point and Samsung bump up the resolution on S6 and S6 Edge without increasing the screen size. They both feature a 5.1 inch QuadHD Super Amoled display with a resolution of 2560×1440 which is the next step above 1080p. So as a result you get a crispier image in a same amount of real estate as the galaxy S5 for example and a pixel density of 577 ppi (pixels per inch).
Battery and Memory:
The freedom to swap in and out the batteries and micro SD expansion are gone. The S6 Edge has a slightly larger battery coming in at 2600mAh. Where as the standard S6 with 2550mAh. What I think is the slight bump in the battery is to compensate the actual edges in the Galaxy S6 Edge. Both come with the 3GB of RAM. The Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge start at 32GB as the base model.
Camera:
As compared to S5 they upgraded the front facing camera from 2MP in S5 to 5MP in S6 and S6 Edge. They are also getting a lower aperture on both the cameras (front and back) at f1.9 and that's gonna improve the low light performance of both the cameras and a blurred background look on a closeup shots. It also has the tracking autofocus with which it can lock the focus on a moving object.
