Don't think O2 will be giving us this phone just like the note edge

Samsung will be pushing these phones with big marketing budgets and big discounts to the networks.

Expect all uk networks to carry both phones

I don't think so. It says the s6 edge is expensive to manufacture and so was the note edge. O2 did not give us that

Well given that o2 have already set up a page inviting people to pre - register. .....

We shall just have to wait and see

Having takena much closer look at the specs, sadly this device won't be for me for 2 reasons:
1. No sd card slot
2. Non removable back cover (so can't remove the battery).

Given I have now had 3 replacement batteries under warranty for my S4's (bulging battery) the idea of having to send the device away for two weeks at a time does not appeal.

Real shame as I love the concept of the two Edges.

So back to the Note 4 it is. ...

For those interested, release date for the UK is scheduled for 10th April with pre orders expected to start about 3 weeks before

That's for the s6 i think. The s6 edge will be more like they note edge. No difference in expense and O2 did not offer it coz of that reason

I just think it will be too expensive. Having had a closer look at that page. It says details may change before release date. Hmmmm

Then @Anonymous you will just have to either register / wait and see OR await updates from @Chris_K on here.

Nice to see people being positive from the start. It was only announced today
