Is the Galaxy S6 Edge worth $100 more than the Galaxy S6? (video)

For me, the only advantage of the Edge over the standard S6 is location of the power button in my preferred position at the top, rather than at the side, opposite the volume buttons. Scratch that one — Note 4 Edge has the power button on the top, but S6 Edge has it on the side opposite the volume buttons.

As noted in the video, the surface area at the sides for gripping the Edge is considerably reduced by the curved edges.
