Samsung Galaxy Note Edge: US Availability & Release



Certification tests are generally the first step towards releasing a device, and Samsung’s Galaxy Note Edge just passed the FCC, confirming some rumors. With this step complete, we can expect the device to hit retail stores pretty soon, but pricing details are not known yet.
Samsung announced their Galaxy Note Edge device back in September, along with some other great devices. The gadget quickly became controversial due to its curved display, which had never been seen before on a smartphone. The curved display is supposed to be a feature of the Galaxy S6 also, except on both sides. It wasn’t far from the Note Edge’s announcement when tech enthusiasts quickly started talking about it, and the device’s popularity was boosted considerably.

Of course, the Galaxy Note Edge comes in multiple variations and some of them have already been released, with AT&T being the first retailer to feature the device ahead of its November 14th release date. The US retailer is currently accepting pre-orders, but it’s unknown when they will ship. Other carriers that are expected to put Samsung’s Galaxy Note Edge in their inventory are Sprint, T-Mobile, U.S. Cellular, and Verizon, but release dates are unknown and vary from carrier to carrier.

The FCC reports a certification test for a device known as SM-N915R4, aka Samsung Galaxy Note Edge. FCC tests are a primary requirement before a device can actually be released on American markets, and the Note Edge has just passed its certification test successfully. We know that the device is set to be released in multiple countries, such as the United Kingdom, Russia, India, Australia, Portugal, Nordic countries, France, Poland, Switzerland, Italy, Spain, Luxembourg, and The Netherlands. These countries are most likely going to get the Galaxy Note Edge in 2015, but there are no pricing details known at this point.
