If you are not using a Samsung smartphone, you are not experiencing the smartphone experience.

I have used several different smartphone brands. None of them measure up to the capabilities of my Galaxy S6.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Realistic color, Lightweight
Cons: the buttons are geared for a lefthanded person.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Love Everything but the Camera in Portrait Mode.

For whatever reason...photos taken in portrait are a pain to view later as they either turn landscape or upside down. Turning the screen orientation on and off just for that is annoying.
Pros: Bright display
Cons: camera

I upgraded from a S4 to the S6 and have been impressed with the improvements: brighter screen, easier, intuitive interface, sleek (too sleek, had to get a cover) case.
My only negative so far is the fingerprint lock: set it up and turned it off after it failed like three times in a row. Not worth the hassle.
I know others have complained about the short battery life, but my experience is just the opposite. The S6 battery usually has at least 40% charge at the end of the day, while my S4 would typically run out in the afternoon. While I am not a heavy user by any means, I don't baby the phone either, hoping to eek out a bit more time. Hopefully, I'll be saying the same thing in six months from now!
Oh, it would also be really, really nice if the speaker faced the front of the phone instead of shooting straight out of the bottom. How hard could that be?

Pros: Bright display, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, slim case, exceeded expectations
Cons: sides and back are too slick; requires a case, speaker should be on same side as screen, fingerprint lock is too touchy to be useful

Better than expected

I really wasn't in the fame of mind to change to the S6 after reading the negative reviews about the battery life and memory. Well.....I haven't really found this to be the "big" deal everyone made it out to be. The battery life has been much better than my old S3 , the "QUICK" charger works like a dream and there really isn't any need to worry about battery life with the "ultra battery saving mode", which can get you well past the time to get your phone quick charged to 75-100% in an hour or less. Yes, the days of taking out the battery to "reset/clear" you phone was convenient, however, how often did you really do this? (when this started to happen -it was time for a new phone anyway)
Well, memory is another issue - Yes, having the capability to replace the card was easy but keeping all your photos, etc can still be done but you'll have to back up to the cloud or PC (which is a good idea anyway to keep all those memories) and you'll have them forever. As for myself, it was much to easy just to buy another card, but then sometimes the other card was lost or damaged before I could download them - the S6 will now make me "save" more frequently, so I don't run out of storage or loose those memories.
Overall, I enjoy having the faster processor , slim design, and fun new features. Giving up the removal battery has yet to be seen if the S6 battery will last over the years, or hold less charge after the first year like removal batteries, thus making it an issue to "replace" the phone, instead of replacing a battery.
FYI: I'm still waiting to see if I like having the speaker on the bottom of the phone, I understand why, but it makes me feel unease, since dropping always happens bottom and side first- so in the rain,dropping the phone would be an issue.

Cons: left settings button replaced, looks similar to iphone

Without all the unecessary softqare this phone runs swiftly and cleanly with no freezes at all. The camera is phenomenal and definitely won me over to Samsung's side from Apple. If you're looking for the next "big thing" people will be using- it will be the S6
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, super awesome 16mp camera
Cons: nothing to write in cons
I would recommend this to a friend!
