While this is a bit of a monster as far as smartphones are concerned, the
Edge offers a lot of function that may be attractive to power users (unless you happen to be left handed, initial reports are telling us that the screen feels
sharp and uncomfortable on the
tapered side).
The rounded corners and slight
tapers around the back and sides make it more comfortable to hold, but because the metal body doesn't have any
sharp or flat
edges to help with the grip, the phone can be a little slippery and difficult to hold onto at times.
