if samsung is shifting to unibody metal chassis, no choice but to include non removable battery.

perhaps they will come up with Active variant where you can remove battery?

The sides look like iphone 6 and xperia 3 hybrid in some ways. I hope the design is nice. I wonder if the back is metal or full glass.

First on the left is what looks to be a standard Galaxy S6, while the second is the phone with a Verus-branded cover.

But the fourth and fifth handsets show that Samsung may have an Edge version of the S6, echoing the sloped-screen designed of the Galaxy Note Edge. Looking closely, the image seems to indicate that edged version will be dual-edged: On the fourth, the right side is edged while the fifth show the left is edged, which suggests both sides are wrapped by the display -- that or Samsung will be making different versions for right- and left-handed people.

The fifth phone in the lineup also shows a metallic and thick-looking bezel, as well as a physical home button.

Separately, Samsung insiders have told ZDNet Korea that the Edge version of the Galaxy S6 will be dual-edged and the edged sides will be symmetrical. It will also use aluminium in its construction.

some ppl like the note edge leh for the curved edge... they feel it's unique looking and different from the standard phone designs.

wonder if samsung really doing two curved edges for the S6. how will handling of the device be like?

Just another rumour. Although you have 2 edge screens, perhaps you can only use 1 edge screen at anytime. Maybe it is designed for both left and right handed.

ya man.

eager to see what Samsung got to offer this year.

tbh, last year's devices were a bit meh... like kinda of expected. no surprises.

Agreed. The screen bezel is worse than s4 and the screen resolution is just a refined s4 screen. Hated the back cover cuz it didnt look right with the front of the phone (faux leather crap).

That was the reason why i moved to LG G3 from my S4 cuz it looked beautiful, and they got lollipop to their users first. Samsung got to really up their game or they will lose more market share. I will move back if they can really impress me, esp with their exynos chip which i cant wait to see its performance.
