Samsung Electronics has introduced to the Nigerian market its
newest flagship device, the Galaxy S6 Edge Plus.
The company said the device, “which is the most attractive in its
category in the market, has sleek ergonomic edge design, and a
stylish, slim and light body made from metal and glass.”
It was first unveiled in New York, the United States, on August
13, 2015, and in Nigeria on August 21.
According to Samsung, the look and feel of the S6 Edge+ design
portrays “sophistication and excellence.”
It said in a statement, “The sleek phablet has a gorgeous,
curved design and the beautiful harmony of metal and glass
combined for durability. The glass includes a reflective surface
to highlight colour characteristics, which creates unique effects
and depth definition when reflecting light. The device is
available this week in White Pearl, Black Sapphire, Gold
Platinum and Silver Titanium.”
Samsung said the phablet came in a slimmer and lighter body
with an improved curved screen of 5.7” Super AMOLED and a
QHD 2560×1440 pixel resolution, “delivering excellent
sharpness, brightness, saturated colours and overall image
quality as expected from Samsung, enhancing entertainment
experience.”
“The Quad HD provides a resolution that offers crisp and vivid
images, delivering an immersive viewing experience,” the

The Managing Director of Samsung Electronics West Africa, Mr.
Brovo Kim, said that dual-edge display technology had been
taken many notches higher with the new Galaxy S6 Edge+.
“At Samsung, we pride ourselves at being the first in developing
the newest technology that improves the way we live,
communicate and shape the world. We pioneered large display
phones and then led the way with curved glass technology,” he
said.
“Today, we are bringing these two technologies together, by
offering a device that is intuitive and efficient with a bigger
screen, allowing consumers achieve more with their
smartphone,” Kim added
He said another feature of the device was the Live Broadcast,
which allowed users share or broadcast a video in real time
over YouTube. “With this feature, users can easily share special
occasions as they happen with family and friends.”

can be sent directly from the camera app and friends and family
can be invited to watch via text messages, email, and social
networking platforms,” he said.
Kim added, “Another exciting video feature is the video collage.
Here Samsung took the photo collages a step future into videos.
Users can combine multiple short videos and make them into
one single video, giving each video a different look and feel-one
can be slow motion while another black and white in a single
video giving users exhilarating collage of videos that can be
uploaded to different social media platforms.”
The Director of Hand-held Products for Samsung Electronics
West Africa, Mr. Emmanuel Revmatas, described the S6 Edge+
as an “entertainment power-house, intensifying multimedia
experience with a big beautiful screen.”
He said, “Two years ago, we took a decision to deliver a
superior display technology, great camera and best-in-class
design, which led to the coming on stream of the S6 Edge. The
dual edge design was like nothing else out there and the curved
display resonated with our customers,” he enthused.”
He added, “Now, we are bringing everything you love to a big
screen by improving on the features and design. The display is
sharp, brilliant and the curve creates an added sense of depth.
Due to the high definition screen, the colours are deep, rich and
vibrant.”
