    In readiness for the release of the Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 edge next month, independent retailers all around the world are slashing the price of Samsung's former flagship smartphones, the Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 edge, in order to ensure that they don’t get lumbered with a ton of excess stock. This is great news for consumers who aren't too concerned about having the latest handset on the market as it means they can pick up a powerful device for a fraction of its original retail price.

    From what I've seen so far, online merchant QualityCellz is offering the best deal around town on the curved variant of the Galaxy S7’s predecessor. While stock lasts, you can pick up a 128GB factory unlocked variant of the Galaxy S6 edge anodized in its gorgeous Platinum Gold colorway for just $459.99, which is an eye-watering reduction of $220 from its box price of $680 when it first hit the shelves in the United States back in April, 2015.

    If you’ve been caught up in the mountain of Galaxy S7-orientated news and need a refresher on the Galaxy S6 edge’s specifications, it’s an extremely capable handset, packing a  5.1-inch curved QHD Super AMOLED display, an Exynos 7420 octa-core chipset, a Mali-T760MP8 GPU, 3GB of RAM, a 16-megapixel rear-facing camera equipped with Optical Image Stabilization (OIS), a 5-megapixel selfie shooter and a 2,550mAh non-removable Li-Ion battery.

    This particular device will be available for use on both GSM carriers and Verizon. It also sports compatibility for WCDMA, Bluetooth Class 1 (Version 4.0, LE+EDR), 802.11b/802.11g/802.11n Wi-Fi, NFC and GPS.
