Next up, the topic shall be about how much memory you can have upon buying the phone. The perks that come along and how you can buy a phone version that has the amount of space you need.
Internal Memory
When you come to buy an S6 Edge phone you have to know which version do you need and which specs you should look for. Take for instance the internal memory of your S6 Edge. Not coming in one stable amount, there are varying quantities which you should decide which one to pick from. There is an S6 Edge version that has 32 GB internal memory, 64 GB, and 128 GB. Take your pick and be aware of the fact that when the internal memory increases, the price rises as well.
Another fact you should be aware of is that your S6 Edge has no memory card slot. So you have to buy a phone that has a handsome amount of internal space so as you can download apps at your ease. If you buy the 32 GB version and you need more space, you will have to uninstall apps so as you can make space for more. You are warned!
The space of your RAM stays fixed at 3 GB.
Now, comes the best and most interesting part of this entire review. The camera bit! Here we will be talking about the amazing camera of the S6 Edge alongside the many perks.
