Thanks a lot everyone! to answer few questions asked:

1. Pre-release: Official date announced was 10th April but the phone was sold to a very small number of people on 8th April who were notified a day before of the surprise. Somehow I always make it to this small list and get the phone early ;)
2. Colour: I wanted the colour blue but it is not available for S6 Edge so I settled with Black as white/gold/green are not my type of colours
3. Fingerprint sensor: I tested and compared with my wife's iPhone 6 and it works in the same way..flawless everytime and very convenient.
4. Camera: All I would say is that the camera will blow you away!
5. Price: I bought it for 3200 Qatari Riyaals

If you have more questions then ask away and I will happily respond :)

I went today to buy it here in Riyadh but it was out of stock. Though it got limited stock apps for its dual display, is it worth extra 100$. I used the phone that was there in display and found quite saxy. So, is it worth it or i better wait some new phone. The low battery and (no)waterproof was kinda disappointment for me. Do tag me when u guys reply.
Should I buy it? Current phone is Xperia S.

@asadonline; I would rather compare iOS vs Android instead of comparing S6 vs iPhone 6. Personally I like android.
@manigamer; 2-3k is not really a discount when you can spend 90k on a cell phone ;) (btw last year someone told me that you can get a 15% to 20% discount if you purchase directly from Samsung shop..not sure about now)

@shujaswati; The normal S6 looks very simple compared to S6 Edge. Applications would start to pop-up sooner or later but it is a small area and can only be used for notifications or to keep tools/menu items to save main screen space. The night clock display is a cool feature and so is the contacts notification based on colour. The Edge is sharp when you hold it in your hand but I have put it in a Spigen Neo Hybrid genmetal case and now it feels much better. If I have to make the decision again then I would still buy the Edge.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

    tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.
