Let's start with the main display, rounded at the corners of the display - a feature of the smartphone, which "blew up" the flow of interest in it. Is it convenient or not? Why did they do that at all? If it’s hard to answer 1 question, everyone has different tastes (although people write that it’s more convenient to use the usual s6). That question 2 is easier to answer. First, it's attractive. Secondly, rounded corners display some notifications. Thirdly, when the s6 edge is face down, you can determine who is calling by the flickering of the screen, which you will, of course, see.

Although the smartphone is new, it left its signature, recognizable look. Like some global manufacturers, Samsung decided to make the smartphone completely "glass", that is, the back of the smartphone is covered protective glass(like the front) Gorilla Glass 4. This gave the smartphone a noticeable slipperiness. You can really accidentally drop it, it turned out to be a very slippery case.

Scooped out the outer samsung view The s6 Edge is a bit from the Iphone too, I mean the location of the speaker and the rejection of microSD, but more on that later.

I would also like to emphasize that the smartphone is quite light, 132 grams, and this is very small with a 5.1-inch screen.

In the box, in addition to a smartphone, “charging” and a microUSB cable, there are headphones of fairly decent quality.

Samsung's TouchWiz is fast. It has become more like a "regular" Android. You can set up notifications information flows, which will be displayed on the rounded edges of the smartphone screen. The thing is interesting, but you can live without it. We have already written about such a thing as setting colors for a specific group of contacts. There is the usual power saving, there is extreme. When enough fast discharge smartphone, this will be a requested feature. There is a fingerprint scanner, heart rate sensors, notifications. They all work great.

Specifications

• CPU

  Exynos 7420, 8 cores - 4 cores 1500 (MHz) and 4 cores 2100 (MHz)

• video processor

Of course, this is one of the most powerful processors on the market and newest video chip, but the smartphone heats up very quickly and strongly during heavy loads. The regular S6 didn't get that hot. "Iron", of course, the most powerful. It will not lose its relevance for quite a long period of time. For those who don't know, Exynos is a proprietary processor from Samsung. It turned out that it is insanely heated, alas, there is such a fact.

Memory

The new devices Samsung refused to support microSD. Explaining this by the fact that it hurts they work slowly. It seems to me that this was done because of their greed, first of all, and already in the second - because of the "convenience" of the user. Agree, it is convenient to transfer data from your old phone to a new one by simply rearranging the memory card. Here we are deprived of this opportunity. There are smartphones with 128, 64 and 32 GB memory. Random access memory an unusually large amount of 3 GB.

Connection

it latest device from a well-known company, a market leader. There are no connection problems. All standard communications that exist today in the world, this smartphone supports. Everything.

updated as new information becomes available and published after careful review

When Samsung was developing , it had a choice between Qualcomm's Snapdragon 810 chipset and its own Exynos 7420.

There have been rumors that the Snapdragon 810 is heating up. Samsung conducted a test of its chipset, showing what the company has done right choice. Exynos 7420 is indeed one of the fastest chipsets out there. But even the best face challenges.

Why does the chipset get hot?

With moderate using Samsung Galaxy S6 never gets hot. However, excessive gaming, especially those with high graphical capabilities, can even heat up the Galaxy S6 and its Exynos 7420 chipset. We have already seen some user posts reporting this issue on the Samsung forums. By the term "excessive games" we mean games lasting about an hour.

What happens when the chipset heats up?

In most cases, after the chipset heats up, the game is interrupted. And if users try to restart the game, it will crash again after a few minutes. Once the chipset is warm, users can continue to use the phone to make calls, surf the web, chat with friends on apps, and more. They just can't play video games.

How to solve the heating problem?

There are two ways to solve such a problem. The first is to let the phone cool down and reduce CPU usage as much as possible. For starters, you can download an app like “ clean master”, which will help you clear the cache and increase performance with just one click. After you clear the cache and boost your phone's performance, let it rest for 10-15 minutes, then you can continue playing video games. The second possibility is to reboot the phone. Rebooting also cools down the chipset. When you restart your phone, you can return to playing video games again.

Reduce CPU usage

You can also take precautions to keep your phone from getting hot. To do this, go to Settings > Apps > App Manager and uninstall or block apps you don't use. Surely you will find many applications and widgets that you do not use. Block them to offload your CPU.

What to do when the Samsung phone heats up and quickly discharges? What is the reason for the abnormal heating of the Android phone?

If your Samsung Galaxy phone gets warm after a few hours of use or while charging, this is normal. However, if it heats up to such an extent that it becomes impossible to hold it, then this is no longer normal. Something needs to be done about this. It is necessary to find out if the problem is the operating system or technical, then the specialist should take a look at the device.

In this post, I will tell you a couple of things that you should do if you notice that your phone is heating up abnormally or even overheating.

This issue should not be underestimated as you may have heard how Galaxy Note 7 has rocked the Android community and kept them on their toes for months after reports of fires caused by the device's faulty battery. So, for the safety of readers, I offer a few practical troubleshooting steps if the phone starts to heat up.

The purpose of this troubleshooting guide is to understand if there is indeed a problem with your phone and to make sure that you, as the owner, are safe. Again, this issue should not be taken lightly, because more often than not, overheating is caused by a battery that may not be working properly.

Batteries mobile phone can explode, and I personally encountered such a case. As they say, here's what you need to do...

Step 1: unplug the charger and unhook it from the phone

If you are charging your device and notice that it is heating up like never before, stop the charging process. While we don't know if the problem is in the phone, the battery or the charger, but for your safety, stop charging the phone.

After disconnecting the phone from charger, keep monitoring your phone's temperature to know if it continues to heat up even if it's not charging anymore.

Step 2Turn off your phone

If the temperature does not drop after disconnecting the charger, turn off the phone to see if the temperature drops. If it's still hot after a few minutes, then don't do anything to it, just take it back to the store and have a technician look at it.

Step 3: Charge your phone when the power is off

On the other hand, if the temperature dropped after the charger was disconnected, it is possible that it only heats up when it is turned on during charging. Now you can try charging it while it's turned off to see if it can recharge the battery without getting hot.

If a lot of applications are running in the background, the phone may get warm and charging it in this state will also contribute a little to the heat. So, after finding out that the phone charges normally when turned off, move on to the next step.

Step 4: Start the phone app in safe mode and charge

Now let's try to check if the Samsung can still charge without getting hot when all third party applications temporarily disabled. Start your phone in safe mode this time and then plug in your charger.

Charge your phone for 5 minutes and try to see if it's overheating. If the heating is within limits, then the problem could be caused by some applications that are running in the background. Try to see if you can do something with these applications. You may already have an understanding of which of your applications are causing the problem.

How to boot your phone in safe mode:

1. Turn off the device.
2. Press and hold the power button.
3. When SAMSUNG appears on the screen, release the power button.
4. Immediately after you have released the Power key, press and hold the Volume Down key.
5. Keep holding the volume down key until the device finishes rebooting.
6. Safe Mode will be displayed in the lower left corner of the screen.
7. Release the Volume Down key when you see Safe Mode enabled.
8. Uninstall apps that are causing problems.

Step 5: factory reset your phone

Considering that the phone may still get warm even in safe mode, or if your phone does get warm even if it is not charging, restart it immediately to see if the problem is caused by system conflicts or some features.

However, if possible, do backup files and data, and then perform a factory reset so that your device is not locked after a reset.

Why is my Samsung Galaxy battery draining fast?

1. Close all unused applications. This can be done using the Recent Apps button located to the left of the Home button. In additional available features optimize automatic brightness your device.

2. You can also use additional function battery optimization located in the settings. Switch to additional option and select "Optimize battery usage". Here you can choose to optimize selected or all apps. Pay attention to the features that turn off the background and data sync when using this mode.

3. Turn off unwanted features such as Bluetooth or location mode. Check and turn off location tracking - in case it's own and the map app is using it, the battery will drain faster and your phone will constantly search for GPS signal which will cause heating.

It's best to have it turned off when you're not using the cards. Many other apps also tend to use location tracking, so it's best to turn it off for better power savings and less heat.

4. Using 4G and 3G data for a longer period - when 3G or 4G data is continuously used by a smartphone, the processor and GPU work continuously, which causes heating.

5. Too many apps running at the same time - sometimes there are too many apps open on the smartphone, which can lead to heating due to unnecessary processes running in the background.

6. Check regularly for app updates and software. To do this, go to the Play store, find "My Apps" and select update all. To check for operating system updates, go to settings and find the “Phone” tab and then “System Update”.

If all of the above methods could not fix Samsung overheating, then the problem is not operating system, but in smartphone components. It is necessary to contact the service center to inspect the malfunctions of the device.

Every year technology develops, and various innovative devices are born. These include the well-known Galaxy smartphone S6 edge. He has powerful processor, display high definition and a capacious battery, which allows you to run any program. But this has a serious drawback - when you run heavy software, the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge heats up.

Such a problem may cause the user to suspect that a breakdown has occurred. And in some cases, he may be right.

Why does the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge run hot?

As a rule, the reason for excessive heating is the powerful processor of the device. Sometimes the gadget can heat up even without running powerful games and programs. Some experts advise lowering the processor speed yourself using special programs but it is extremely risky.

Another reason that causes the phone to heat up is a battery malfunction. To avoid serious problems, it is recommended to use only branded accessories, and not Chinese counterparts. There are many cases when a fake battery simply exploded due to heat.

If your device has become very hot, and you cannot understand the reason, the specialists of the LP Pro service center will help you deal with this problem. Detailed diagnostics will be performed to help determine the cause of the problem and, if necessary, repair will be performed. In the process of work, only high-quality components produced by the official manufacturer are used, so the device will serve you for many years after repair.

slight heating Samsung smartphone Galaxy during active use or battery charging is considered a common occurrence, which should not be paid special attention. However, if the temperature mobile device increases even in a calm state or when performing the simplest operations, one can draw conclusions about its incorrect operation. If the device is under warranty, it should be taken to service center. Otherwise, you can try to identify and eliminate the source of the problem yourself. Let's look at why the Samsung phone gets very hot and how to deal with it.

Possible Causes of Samsung Overheating and How to Fix Them

Many manufacturers of modern gadgets are trying to endow their products with a minimum case thickness and powerful features. This is achieved by applying the latest technologies and very close placement of circuit components on printed circuit board. And in the absence effective system cooling, this leads to a noticeable heating of the phone during active use.

The normal temperature of a smartphone is 24-28°C at rest and 40-50°C at maximum load. These figures may increase during battery charging, since the electrochemical processes that occur in batteries proceed with the release of heat.

The following elements can become excessively hot in Samsung:

• battery;
• CPU;
• screen.

Therefore, it is in them that you need to look for the cause of overheating.

The following factors can lead to an increase in the temperature of these elements:

1. Using a third party charger. If, when charging your phone, you use a more powerful charger than the one provided in the package, this can lead not only to overheating of the battery, but also to its premature failure.
2. Failure of the supply element. If the back cover on your phone is very hot, remove the battery (of course, if possible) and visually inspect it for swelling and other defects. If there are any, replace the battery with a new one, as the old one may ignite during further operation.
3. Screen operation at maximum brightness. Usually the reason for display heating is watching video content for a long time or playing 3D games at extreme brightness. To reduce the load, try reducing the brightness with default settings Samsung or activate adaptive adjustment.
   
   
4. Usage wireless connections. Modules wireless communication Wi-Fi, GPS, Bluetooth and Mobile Internet in the active state consume a lot of energy, which negatively affects the temperature of the battery. Therefore, when unnecessary, it is better to keep them in the off state.
5. Bad coverage. In the absence of a stable samsung signal Galaxy will constantly look for the best connection point, which will also lead to battery heating. This is especially noticeable in LTE networks and 3G. Therefore, in areas of poor reception, it is recommended to switch to a 2G network.
6. Processor overload. The operation of the CPU at maximum loads greatly affects its temperature and increases power consumption.

If everything is more or less clear with the first five factors that cause Samsung to overheat, then the last reason should be considered in more detail.

Why does the temperature of the CPU rise?

All modern Samsung phones Galaxy is equipped with CPU and battery temperature monitoring sensors. When a critical value is reached on one of these elements, they notify the user of a dangerous situation and turn off the mobile device on their own.

The same sensors, together with special software, allow the smartphone owner to find out the actual temperature of the processor and battery. To monitor the battery status, you can use the TempMonitor program, and for the CPU, the CPU Monitor utility is suitable. The order of work with them will be as follows:

The following factors can lead to an increase in CPU temperature:

• launching highly demanding games and other programs that work with 3D graphics;
• simultaneous opening of a large number of background applications;
• blockage internal memory smartphone residual files and other rubbish;
• exposure to malware.

Ways to lower the processor temperature

When opening demanding applications on Samsung, all CPU cores will work on maximum frequency, which will invariably lead to strong heating of the device and rapid battery consumption. That is why it is recommended to use such software on medium-sized phones with periodic pauses to allow the device to cool down a bit.
