Welcome to a Laptop AC Adapter specialist of the Samsung Ac Adapter
The top, bottom, and left-hand sides of the screen were just as rigidly rectangular as those of any garden-variety phone. But rather than smacking into a conventional border, the right-hand edge gracefully curved downward, a little like the way a magazine or book page bends toward the binding. It was a triumph of engineering ingenuity.
You know what, though? Manufacturing a curved screen is a cakewalk compared to figuring out useful things to do with it once it exists.
So it’s not shocking that it took Samsung almost two years to release a phone based on that prototype. The phone is the Galaxy Note Edge, and it’s a new, extremely-top-of-the-line model in Samsung’s already high-end Galaxy Note line. (Samsung provided me with a unit for review.)
The price will vary depending on which carrier and payment option you choose, but in no instance will the phone come cheap. On a two-year contract, for instance, AT&T is charging $400—$100 more than the Galaxy Note 4 with battery such as Samsung NP-N210 Ac Adapter , Samsung NP-N220P Ac Adapter , Samsung NP-N310 Ac Adapter , Samsung NP-NF110 Ac Adapter , Samsung NoteMaster 486S Ac Adapter , Samsung ND10 Ac Adapter , Samsung NP900X1A Ac Adapter , Samsung NP900X1B Ac Adapter , Samsung NP900X3A Ac Adapter , Samsung NP-X460 Ac Adapter , Samsung Q40 Ac Adapter , Samsung P60 Ac Adapter and double the price of the the Galaxy S5.
What Samsung decided to do with that curved side of the screen is to treat it as a sort of long, skinny, secondary display. While the rest of the display is devoted to whatever app you’re running, the Edge’s edge is available for other stuff: shortcuts to apps, alerts such as incoming phone calls, widgets of various sorts, and even mini-games. It's a form of multitasking which is right in line with the Galaxy Note line's emphasis on PC-like power features.
Which brings up one crucial fact about the Note Edge. Except for the curved edge and some new software features which take advantage of it, this is essentially the same phone as Samsung’s new Galaxy Note 4. Software-wise, for instance, they perform the same tricks, such as letting you open up (certain) apps in a multi-window mode.
The Note Edge has the same reasonably classy metal frame and leatherette back as the Note 4; the same vivid Super AMOLED screen technology; the same S Pen stylus for note-taking and doodling; the same quad-core processor and terrific 16-megapixel rear camera with optical stabilization. Both phones have oversized batteries which are practically impossible to drain in a single day of use. They also sport fast-charging capability: A half-hour plugged into the included AC adapter gets them to 50% capacity.
There are still areas where these two phones suffer from Samsung-itis: the tendency to do many, many things but failing to do all of them well. For example, the fingerprint scanner requires you to drag your finger precisely over the home button, a far tougher maneuver to perform than the firm squeeze used by the iPhone's Touch ID. Samsung will never do polished simplicity as well as Apple does. But after so many generations of refinement, both of these Notes are attractive options if you want a big, big phone with lots of features.
Mathematically speaking, the Note Edge screen is a smidge smaller than the one on the Note 4: 5.6” instead of 5.7”. But when you inspect them side by side, the most obvious difference is that Samsung widened the Note Edge to accommodate 160 extra horizontal pixels of screen space along the right edge. Like any huge phone, it’s a handful, but only slightly more so than the Note 4.
(Of course, if you’re fretting that a phone might be too big your hand, you shouldn’t even be flirting with buying either the Note 4 or the Note Edge. Get yourself a nice, midsized handset like the iPhone 6 or Samsung’s own iPhone-esque Galaxy Alpha.)
Most smartphones work equally well whether you’re part of the right-handed majority or (like me) a southpaw. The Edge, however, favors righties. You can easily reach the curved area if you’re holding the phone in your right hand and operating it with your right thumb, or if you’re holding it in your left hand and using your right forefinger. But If you try to operate it with your left finger or left thumb, you’ll cover the screen and hurt your wrist.
You can rotate the phone 180 degrees to put the edge on the left side, but I can’t imagine that anyone will find that a workable fix: Among other things, you’d have to remember to rotate it back every time you took a phone call. (For the record, I’m a southpaw, but I hold my phone in my right hand, so I didn’t find the Edge’s right-handedness to be a major issue.)
