The S6 is fast and easy to use. The camera takes AMAZING pictures. The speaker is the best I've heard too. Love that fact that you can set your phone down and continue to hear your music or conversation.
I purchased the S6 as a much-needed upgrade from the S3, and to say that forward progress was not made between these models would be a lie. The difference in battery life is stark, and I am a fan of the S6's fast-charging (I can charge my phone from practically 0% to 100% in less than an hour and a half!). Other plusses include a sharper camera and a better integration of Google.
However, my biggest concern--that almost got me to switch over to the iPhone (after years of being a dedicated Samsung user)--is the size. It seems as though phones keep getting larger and larger. The S6 is noticeably--and uncomfortably--bigger than my S3. With a case, it doesn't fit in my car's cupholder where I generally like to stow it when driving. And while I can reach all my apps one-handed, it's a bit of a stretch, and I don't think it should be.
I'm genuinely worried that by the time my next upgrade comes around, the newest Galaxy S-whatever won't fit in my back pocket. I hope this upward size trend plateaus and makes its way back down a bit because I'm not sure how much bigger I can tolerate.
Pros: Bright display, Durable
Cons: Too big

Totally pleased with the performance of my Samsung Galaxy S6. Lightweight and easy to navigate. Everyday I learn how to use features I didn't realize were available. I think it's a keeper!
This phone is a vast improvement on the Galaxy S4. The battery life has lasted much longer, even with me browsing videos online. The only problem I would have is the movement of the earphone jack to the bottom. On top I was able to use it in my car more easily. At any rate, I like the midnight bluish/black appearance. It restarts much faster and the camera is by far an improvement.
