Samsung's Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge will debut in the US on April 10th

Yes, you can lay claim to an HTC One M9 of your very own at the stroke of midnight on March 27th, but what if your craving for a flagship leads you in another direction? No problem: Samsung has just announced that you'll be able to pre-order the Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge also starting on the 27th, with a full nationwide debut to follow on April 10th. Frankly, between these two bitter smartphone rivals and their near-identical announcement times this morning, it's hard to say whose actually managing to steal the other's thunder. It's the thought that counts, right?

We just got both devices in for a bit of frenzied testing, and we'll have a full review ready for you as soon as we can. In the meantime, feel free to check out our hands-on and video chronicling those first heady moments with Samsung's latest devices, and keep the following details in mind. You'll be able to lay claim to black, white and gold versions of the S6 and S6 Edge, with either 32GB, 64GB or 128GB of internal storage. Our advice? More storage is better; there's no expandable memory slot to fall back on. As usual, all five major wireless carriers in the US will carry the two S6 variants, but smaller players and MVNOs like Boost, Cricket and MetroPCS will only sell the regular S6. Speaking of carriers, they're probably going to announce full pricing and availability for the devices any second now, and we'll update this post with all the details as they drop.
