    [Poll Results!] Do you use the Edge screen features on your Galaxy S6 or S7 edge?

    Poll

    Since the debut of the Galaxy S6 edge last year, Samsung has put a lot of focus on its curved screen technology, having launched three smartphones with displays that curve on both sides. The Edge screen wasn't very functional on the S6 edge, but Samsung has continually added new features over the last year. Those features aren't enough, however, and most of us here at SamMobile have them all disabled and use our S6 or S7 edge as a regular flat device.

    While the Galaxy Note Edge had clearly defined edge functionality, the dual-edge screens are more about the visuals than being truly useful, mainly because those edges are too small. Of course, that's not to say everyone keeps the Edge screen features disabled, and that is exactly what we want to know in our latest poll. Do you use the Edge screen features on your Galaxy S6 edge, Galaxy S6 edge+, or Galaxy S7 edge, or do you keep everything disabled and treat your phone like a device with a flat display?

    You know what to do – let us know through the poll below, and leave a comment with your thoughts!

    Poll Results: Well, the results are in. It looks like the Edge screen features aren't exactly that popular, though a majority of folks still manage to use them. Quite a few have them enabled but rarely use them, and surprisingly (at least for us folks here at SamMobile), there aren't too many folks that don't use the Edge screen features at all.
