This year, Samsung went all-in on its dual edge display technology, and while we still don’t have a clear picture of how this turned out for Samsung, I think most people would agree it was a success in at least some ways. One would think Samsung would go with the same line-up next year – since Samsung is so good at annualizing product releases – but a report out of Vietnam is suggesting that Samsung will only have one Edge device next year, and that it will be part of the Samsung Galaxy S7 line of smartphones.
That rumour might seem innocuous enough, but if you consider that Samsung had two Edge devices this year – the Galaxy S6 Edge and Galaxy S6 Edge+ – then it’s interesting that Samsung would reduce this to one Edge device for the whole year. The even bigger question is: which one would they bring back? Without sales numbers, it’s hard to compare the performance of both devices, but if we take the general preference of the market for larger smartphones, the we’d guess that Samsung would be launching a phablet-sized Galaxy S7 Edge+ next year.
What do you think about the rumour that Samsung will only have one Edge device next year? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.
