What is the s6 and s6 edge like?
they offer plenty of raw power, also a nice screen and awesome build quality, but i read some local boards about s6/edge, and plenty of owners complain about performace issues like bad multitasking and not as smooth operation as you expect from a flagship.

----------------

btw did you guys know about these relatively new apps?

reviews are usually positive, but real life performance is often different.

the lg g4 looks great with the leather back, but that leather cover easily wears out at the corners/edges. it's an issue lg have already acknowledged.

i usually look to devices with an outstanding price-performance ratio, so i wouldn't pick either of those, but if somebody put a gun to my head, i'd pick the "normal" s6. the s6 edge looks fab on photos and also in flesh, but not good to hold in hand. it's too slippery, i bet anyone would drop it within the 1st week of usage. the lg looks and feels meh, except with the leather back which is not too durable. so it's the s6 for me.

What you do you think of the edge?
S6? It looks beautiful. My friend has it but he is experiencing lagging, that's why I am not buying it.

I've had bad experience with Samsung phones, they start lagging and get slow too soon. My M8 is still a badass after 1,5 years. Sony is strong like that too.

i use a xiaomi mi3. i bought it a year ago, and it was flagship grade stuff for chips (~230€) then. my only complaint is the width of the body.

i used a sony xperia p before the mi3. software-wise, the worst phone i've ever had. sonys are usually nice, but almost every model has an annoying fuckup. e.g. the z3c offers great battery life, flagship performance, nice screen, but the camera overheats quickly and you simply cannot take pictures until it cools down. the z3 also tends to overheat so much than the glue holding the phone together melts and the back cover falls off. the xperia sl offered nice performance within its class, but after a couple of updates, it begun to lag like it had 512mb of ram. etc. so no sony for me until they come out with a phone without a major flaw.
