    Samsung Galaxy Note Edge launched in Malaysia for RM2999, hands-on included

    While it has been available in Malaysia since 6 February 2015, we managed to get some hands-on time with the Samsung Galaxy Note Edge. Retailing at RM2999, the smartphone with a bended or curved display will be available in charcoal black and misty white. The Note Edge offers the same features as the Samsung Galaxy Note 4, right down to the improved S-Note, photo note and Air Command menu. However, it's extra curved strip of touchscreen adds on a row of customizable buttons, a notification center when you're watching or doing something else on the main screen and acting as the cover window to help save energy when you have the cover on. In short, it acts like an independant or extra screen for the Note Edge. It is a known fact that production of the Note Edge is limited, so if you want it, you'd better get it while you can. Check out the tech specs and our hands-on pictures of the Note Edge below.

  • Samsung Galaxy Note Edge coming to Malaysia soon?

    Samsung Galaxy Note Edge coming to Malaysia soon?

    The Samsung Galaxy Note Edge remains the only smartphone in the world with a bended touchscreen on the side. Initially released with limited units for only certain countries, it seems that the Galaxy Note Edge could soon make it's way to Malaysia. This is because it was recently spotted in the SIRIM database under it's code number of SM-N915F. Other notable tech specs and features for the Galaxy Note Edge include a 2.7GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 805 processor, 3GB RAM and a 16MP ISOCELL rear camera along with S Pen stylus support. No news yet on specific Malaysia release dates or pricing but we expect the price to be higher than the RM2499 priced Samsung Galaxy Note 4 due to the Galaxy Note Edge's limited units. Stay tuned for more developments as it could be coming with the upcoming Samsung Galaxy A7 which has also appeared on the SIRIM database.

    Samsung Galaxy Note Edge announced, first bended display smartphone

     

    Ever since Samsung came out with their YOUM flexible displays, everyone has been wondering when we'd be able to see a Samsung smartphone featuring a bended or flexible display. In a surprise move, Samsung officially announced the Samsung Galaxy Note Edge, the world's first smartphone with a bended display. Exactly as it's name suggests, one side of the display is bent at an angle and is a fully functional Super AMOLED touchscreen. Apart from that, other tech specs and features are more or less the same as the Samsung Galaxy Note 4, right down to the S Pen and better looking artificial leather backside. The single edge touchscreen on the side does make it feel a bit lopsided and it also raises the question of whether it is made for left-handed or right handed people, but overall the design is very premium looking. Tech specs and features for the Samsung Galaxy Note Edge include:

    • 2.7GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 805 processor
    • 3GB RAM
    • 32GB / 54GB storage + up to 64GB microSD
    • 5.6-inch display (Super AMOLED, 2560 x 1440 + 160 pixel resolution)
    • 16MP rear camera (auto focus, Smart Optical Image Stabilization) + 3.7MP front camera (f1.9)
    • supports WiFi 802.11 ac (MIMOP), GPS, NFC, Bluetooth 4.1, IR LED, MHL 3.0, 4G LTE Cat 4 + 4G LTE Cat 6
    • Features: Air Command, S Note, Snap Note, Direct Pen input, Multi Window, Ultra Power Saving Mode, Voice Recorder, Heart rate sensor, Finger print scanner, UV sensor
    • 151.3 x 82.4 x 8.3mm | 174g
    • Android 4.4 KitKat
