Using the XDA forums, discussions, participants, and ROM/custom development as a barometer, I am surprised by the underwhelming Edge popularity.
When compared to the historical Note 2, 3, and 4 (and considering the pace of dedicated forums, ROM development, and discussion), the Edge has not nearly tracked the pace. Since release, we have had relatively little discussion, no carrier-specific forums (yet), and very few ROMs to speak of.
I would have thought that all the XDA geeks would have flocked to the Edge as opposed to Note 4. I guess I was wrong. Still, I do not understand why more people have not adopted the Edge.
