Samsung Galaxy Note Edge Review
MojoKid writes Differentiation is difficult in the smartphone market these days. Larger screens, faster processors, additional sensors and higher resolution cameras, all are nice upgrades but are only iterative, especially when you consider the deluge of products that come to market. True innovation is coming along with less frequency and Samsung, more so perhaps than some other players, is guilty of punching out so many different phone models that it's hard not to gloss over new releases. However, the new Samsung Galaxy Note Edge may offer something truly useful and innovative with its supplementary 160 pixel curved edge display. The Note Edge is based on the same internal platform as the Galaxy Note 4, and features a 2.7GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 805 SoC with Adreno 420 graphics and 3GB of RAM. What makes the Galaxy Note Edge so different from virtually all other smartphones on the market is its curved edge display and what Samsung calls its "revolving UI" that offers app shortcuts, status updates, data feeds and features all on its own, but integrated with the rest of the UI on the primary display. You can cycle through various "edge panels" as Samsung calls them, like shortcuts to your favorite apps, a Twitter ticker, news feeds, and a tools panel for quick access to the alarm clock, stop-watch, a flashlight app, audio recorder and even a digital ruler. The Galaxy Note Edge may not be for everyone, but Samsung actually took curved display technology and built something useful out of it."
The summary is completely correct. It has 3GB of RAM (as in system/processor memory), which is actually as big as it gets these days for premium smartphones. 32GB of Flash storage is what you're thinking of, which is not RAM, obviously. And yes, the device has a 32GB Flash setup. So, you're wrong and that's what else is new I guess.
can't use a protective case.

even easier to crack the screen on than a regular smartphone
A lie to go with the other lies you gave.
Why are you bashing something for being different? None of your complaints are even valid, 2/3 disprovable with simple searches.

You can "hold" a knife by the blade by barely touching the edge too, the same for a broken piece of glass. No reasonable person would consider that a substantive reliable grip however.

Translation "I actually couldn't even make up a dishoenst response to this one like I did the other 2 so I'm going to bluff and hope nobody actually clicks those links and thinks critically about what they're seeing". Different does not mean good.
