Design
When Samsung was at work on the S6 lineup, they named this project ‘Project Zero’. What this meant is that whatever Samsung had achieved with their S lineup thus far was in the past, and they were ready to move on to bigger things. Personally, if Samsung ever approached me and asked me what I would change in their flagship lineup, I would only say two things – Design and UI. That is exactly what the Koreans have done in this device. The Plastic is all gone and has made way to a more exclusive metal body. The selling point however is the Dual edge display. Samsung has placed the edge display on both sides of the display rather than just one like the Note Edge. Not only does this amplify the impact of the edge technology, it also adds a symmetry to the device, making it , without doubt, the best looking device in the world right now.
