Kuala Lumpur, MALAYSIA – 9 February 2015 – Pushing the boundaries of innovation, Samsung Malaysia Electronics is proud to introduce the edgiest smartphone to hit our Malaysian shores – the Samsung GALAXY Note Edge. A convergence of style and cutting-edge technology, the relentless pursuit of quality innovation has lead to the unique design of the GALAXY Note Edge.

Free Flowing and Natural multitasking
The improved Multi Window functionality lets you make the most of the 5.6” Quad+HD Super AMOLED screen – ideal for smooth multitasking. You can access apps with full, split or pop-up screens, and change their size and position with one easy swipe. You can even skip music, pause videos and control other apps conveniently, using the Curved Edge display.

Easier and Quicker Access to Live Information
The extraordinary curved Edge screen is designed to be informative and intuitive, offering users quick access and quick execution to frequently used apps, alerts and program control functionality – even when the cover is closed – all with the swipe of a thumb. One of the most innovative features of the Edge Screen is the ability to wake the Edge Screen simply by swiping the Edge Screen in both directions. The Edge Screen is also able to provide live information feed of sports, weather and more.

Enjoy the Immersive Screen, Interruption Free
The Edge screen keeps your notifications and alerts neatly organised on the curved side, without interrupting videos, web browsing or taking attention away from getting work done. Incoming calls, texts and emails no longer get in the way. You can also design your own Edge screen and express yourself by using your favourite images and phrases. The Edge screen allows you to arrange your main app icons aligned to the side so you can leave the rest of your home screen clutter free. Try out the transparent widgets to keep your home screen looking even more stylish.

Joining the GALAXY Note family, the GALAXY Note Edge combines the market’s largest Quad HD Super AMOLED display and the advanced S Pen interface to usher in a new chapter in your mobile experience. Try the different ways of taking notes with Samsung’s S Note application that helps you get everyday tasks done faster. In addition, the innovative Photo Note feature allows users to turn the hand-written notes into easily editable and shareable files. The Galaxy Note Edge is equipped with a default 90 degree shooting angle and up to 120 degree wide angle so you will be able to take a Wide Selfie group shot that fits everyone in the frame. With the Fast Charging feature, it makes possible for your GALAXY Note Edge to charge faster, especially for those who are constantly on the go.

The exclusive Galaxy Note Edge will be retailing at RM2,999 (~US$ 849) and available in “Charcoal Black” and “Frost White” from today onwards at all Samsung Experience Stores and Samsung authorised retailers.
