Samsung fanboys rejoice as two new Samsung devices were unveiled today. The Galaxy Note 4, and a newcomer I wasn't expecting, the Galaxy Note Edge, were both shown at IFA 2014. Both have nearly identical specs, except for one... weird spec on the Note Edge: it's screen dimensions. The screen extends to the side of the phone in some new gimmick Samsung is trying. What do you think of these new devices? I for one am loving the QHD AMOLED displays.
These videos did a good first look at the devices:
Galaxy Note 4:

It's an interesting concept. The only issue I see with a screen like this is even lightly dropping the phone on it's side and having your notification screen cracked.
I honestly don't like the look or functionality of the Note Edge, I personally feel it would be more bothersome than helpful. But that's just my opinion.
The Edge only has a 3000mAh battery, not the 3200 that the Note has. Also, the CPU is dependant on market. Some versions will get the 4+4 core Exynos. Would be worth adding the Gear S to the OP as well. Anyway, great thread, I'm just looking forward to see if I want to get the Moto 360, if not then the circular G Watch is what I'll get.

Oopsie, just fixed that. Thanks for the heads up. I'm also a fan of the 360's design, although I'm not sure if I'm ready to invest in a smart watch this year. I'll probably wait it out until the next generation.
