Samsung Debuts Galaxy Note5 and S6 Edge+ Phones, Preps for Samsung Pay and Gear S2 Watch Launches

Beautiful handsets. I never thought that there comes a time when Samsung is actually leading the market in physical design. The watch looks pretty good too. Samsung Pay is definitely the most exciting thing, though. Hopefully it takes off.

The Koreans have done it again. Bravo. These phones are just luscious as they are powerful. 4 GB RAM? 16 megapixel camera. Samsung Pay. Gosh. The kind of innovation coming out of this company astounding. Samsung is completely dominating the technology field. I look at my iPhone and sigh with embarrassment. I mean, fine, Apple did create the modern smartphone but Samsung is showing how it's properly done, just like Apple showed Xerox how to really make use of GUI and mice.

I'm pretty sure you're kidding, right? You call 4gb RAM and Samsung Pay innovation?

And I thought the iPhone 6 was ugly...I would switch in a heartbeat now that iPhones are underpowered, under spec'd, crazily over-priced AND ugly smartphones...but damn these Android smartphones are hideous.

HOW, in 2015, has Google hired Matias Duarte who's the Steve Jobs of smartphone interfaces AND their manufacturers still produce utterly hideous 2008 looking smartphones??
 
Another god awful presentation.

Samsung Pay - available in other countries sometime in the near future!

I love how Samsung's unique selling points were a SD card slot, water/dustproof chassis and a removable battery, so they removed all of them. At seeing low sales for S6, they quickly released new models, which also don't have those features. I'm sure it's going to work really well!

Don't forget, headphone jack on the bottom! *mind blown*

Because they have 78% of the market share and Apple only has 19% of it? And yes competition is savior, imagine if Apple had any more share given how crappy the last iPhones are.

Where the heck did you pull the 78% of Samsung marketshare from? It's more like 30%…
And most of Samsung marketshare comes from "a renewed focus on lower-cost smartphones."

No.

The SamsungPay ( :S ) looks good thought, wonder why Apple didn't implement that, old technology mayhaps?

Also, try to say "Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge Plus" five times.

Yeah unlike apple pay and google wallet Samsung Pay works almost everywhere (except gas stations and ATMs) so shoukd get more traction than Nfc solutions. Well done Samsung
