I upgraded from a Samsung S4 and the only reason I upgraded was because my old phone could not be charged using the charging port. Luckily I was able to purchase a few spare batteries and charge them in a wall charger which allowed me to be able to swap out batteries as needed. With the S6 this is no longer an option because it does not come with a replaceable battery. I've been using this phone for almost 2 weeks and unless I'm missing something, one major weakness is that you can't back up your settings from an older Samsung and be able to easily re-create the home pages and installed apps. Another major weakness of this phone is the text and message notifications. I use my phone on the vibration setting 90% of the time and this phone even on the highest vibration intensity has a very week vibration. To make matters worse, it appears the notification only occurs once, there doesn't appear to be a way to have the notification repeat until acknowledged. Fortunately there is an app that does seem to help, but this should be a built in function of the phone. As a result, I have missed several critical notifications. The outgoing text messaging with the ability to group is a welcome addition over the S4. While I haven't used the camera extensively, it does appear to focus and take a picture much quicker than the S4 and the quality does seem much better.
Pros: Bright display
I would recommend this to a friend!

In general is a good buy. The ergonomics and design is excellent. Only the battery consumption and Blue Tooth radio signal needs strong improvements.
Cons: low battery performance, poor blue tooth performance
I would recommend this to a friend!

Once I fatigued out how to operate I love my phone. The sprint office in San Antonio on bitters and 281 were too busy visiting with each other to help me. The Waco store was extremely helpful
This phone is great. The camera has a 8 times zoom instead of the standard 4 times and has multiple options to download for the camera. I'm still playing with the phone so I don't know all it can do yet. The themes option is pretty cool. I lme being able to change the entire look for all the screens and keyboard. The only problem that I see and it might just be that I am not use to it yet is there is no SD card and the battery cannot be removed so the battery is smaller and doesn't last as long on a single charge. That is something I am getting use to but don't know if I'll like it or not. Overall, the phone is pretty sleek and useful for what I've seen so far.
Pros: Realistic color, Bright display, Durable
Cons: cannot be opened like previous models, no sd card slot
I would recommend this to a friend!

Nothing in the world beats the look and feel of a galaxy s6 edge

First thing you notice about this phone is how sleek and well designed it is especially compared to the old galaxy phone I had. I still love everything about Samsung as I did with my s3 but obviously there's all that and more with this phone. Speakers are good, camera features are amazing! I use the double click feature all the time and screen is typical Samsung.
This phone has great features and great Wi-Fi. I would recommend this product to a friend because it is one of the greatest phones ever made. The camera display is clearer than ever before. I think the emojis should be updated but not like the iphone emojis.
