This device all though looks nice is one of my latest favorite devices I've ever owned. The battery life is aweful, the screen is hard to see in direct sun light, the firgerprint scanner is almost impossible to use and its extremely difficult to use the health sensor by the camera.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Lightweight
Cons: Not high def, Did not meet expectations, not developer friendly
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Beatiful Design and Powerful Performance Somewhat Limited by Battery and Discarded Features

Positive: Beautiful design, powerful processor, sufficient RAM and storage, above average camera (no complaints), display is color accurate with excellent resolution.
Negative: Poor battery life, no memory expansion via SD card, battery not intended to be removed/replaced by user, not water resistant (YES, it matters!).
My Galaxy S6 does not see heavy usage, yet battery life can be a problem. Power saving mode has become my norm; and no, my device is neither defective nor outside the norm. That being said, it's not a bad product. My dilemma is that getting this device was a long time coming and I had come to expect what the S5 (yes, S5) had to offer. Features like the battery which is both larger/replaceable, SD card expansion, water resistance, etc... Micro USB 3.0 was also dropped, but it didn't matter to me. The S6 having a faster processor, an extra GB of RAM, sharper screen, and being more "design oriented" (or elegant) is nice, but features which were standard on the S5 are still very much desirable. Side by side with my girlfriend's S5, both in cases, many would assume they are the same phone! Again, not a bad product, but I would have gladly accepted it being slightly larger/heavier if it combined what was best about the S5 with S6 resources, display, and design. Hopefully Samsung will realize that the S5 helped establish both a technical benchmark and consumer expectations. Please consider and balance this going forward!
Pros: Realistic color, Bright display, Lightweight, above average system resources, beautiful design and display
Cons: poor battery capacity/life, no sd card expansion (like s5), not water resistant (like s5), battery not removable (like s5)
I would recommend this to a friend!

So far the phone is fast and been reliable. Other Samsung phones have slowed after a few months, so time will tell if it remains fast.
Finger print sensor was not reliable at first, but is better after a few weeks. Not sure if it is because I have learned how to use it better or it learned.
Pros: Bright display, Lightweight
I would recommend this to a friend!

I love this phone has plenty of character. The edge feature makes it easy to find important contacts and apps. I love the ease of use of the phone and its always on point! I switched from the I phone 6S and couldn't be happier! !
