Average, Limited, yet not Awful

Overall I would describe this phone as average, which honestly surprised me. This was a sort of impulse buy on my part, but I trusted I would enjoy it because I have long been a fan of Samsung products. It has many of the specs and features that you would expect from a modern smartphone. However, I can't help but feel compared to other modern smartphones, this phone feels limited. Actually, I should say this phone limits me. For starters, the massive amount of infamous bloatware on the phone that I am not allowed to remove. I am only allowed to minimize it's impact. If you get the 32GB model, you will find a quarter of your memory is already occupied by things you will never need nor want, but are stuck with anyway because Samsung makes money off of it. This actually wouldn't normally bother me, because I typically root my phones (a big selling point for me choosing Android in the first place). However they made sure that the boot loader for this model is locked down, allowing no such thing. I've never understood this practice. This was a very expensive purchase for me, I should be allowed to use the phone to its full potential. I merely want the control over this phone that I would have over my own computer, which means I am not forced to have programs installed on my phone. The S6 also has notorious battery problems, which I am also not allowed to resolve myself because the battery is not removable. I am sure this design choice was made to keep the phone slim, but I am not a fan. I'm practically forced to use a case with this phone anyway, as for some reason this is the most slippery phone I have ever held. Also Android 6.0 has been out for awhile, and it seems we will not get it for quite some time. I have decided to go for a Nexus 6P instead, because of the greater amount of control and power I will have and the 64GB UNLOCKED model is actually CHEAPER than the S6 right now, so this is a no-brainer for me. On a final note though, I will say if money is no issue and you are not a power user, this phone will suffice. It will do exactly what you want.
Pros: Bright display
Cons: Did not meet expectations, slippery, no expandable storage, non-removable battery, bloatware, locked bootloader, slow android updates
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I use this phone for two cars one is ford sync the other one is android 4.4 they work great.
The other thing I do is use triplog for tracking millage for personal and business . It works good with both bluetooth and wifi. Before I had a lg3 with verizon and it always locked horns with my wives Iphone 6. I could keep on going but it gets it done for me.

Overall a smooth running device that multitasking well and performs well. The battery is decent and the design of the device is sleek. A little expensive, but I feel it is worth it since it is the best device on the market.
Pros: Realistic color, Bright display, Durable, Lightweight
Cons: a little expensive

The best phone I have ever had personally

The design looks well with the clear case and screen protectors I got for it. Though some might argue that the camera sticks out to much if you just use it without any kind of case and just plain how you bought it.
with the speakers if you accidently go over them with your finger or to much down on your chest when laying down, it's practically mutes it.
Some people might also say it could be to 'slippery' but with a case that problem does not exist :)
And the headphone jack position could be a problem for some headphone users, I am so used to it being on top, it's on the bottom here.

The features, I have never had with a previous phone of mine before and I have to say, I really like the fingerprint scanner, the way you can log into accounts with your fingerprints on a browser if you want and if you want to use fingerprints only as a lockscreen, very nice :)
But maximum fingerprints you can have is only 4. It's a good number, not to bad but I suppose, like myself, some might think there is an unlimited amount allowed on the phone at once until you realize that you can't add a fifth. (Excuse me for wanting to see all of my fingerprints on my phone ;) )

Performance, it can be a little slow at times like with loading Webpages and other things but I still like the phone and it's no iPhone hardware ;) :) (and maybe it could be because my Internet isn't the best (/-\) )

The value of the phone, I know that it isn't even a year old now but for me it's a yes and no for recommending it to a friend because not everyone I know has such money to spend on a phone this high a price but it's this process for a reason so I'll not complain to much about it :)
☆☆ (2 Value) but I gave it 2 stars anyway ;)

Overall, great phone, great camera, great display with how it looks and with my headphones it has a nice volume level too :)
That reminds me.. the feature for you to adapt the sound that is best for you.. awesome ;) I see a nice diffrance in how loud it will go because of it, it makes listening to music and watching movies and playing games way better, more 'into' it with that extra sound boost it gives :)
☆☆☆☆ (4 Overall)

And just a little bit added advice, if you don't use Samsung devices, I recommend getting one, the added stuff from having a samsung account can be nice to have and comforting :)
Pros: Realistic color, Bright display, Durable, Lightweight, fingerprint scanner, screen size, battery and fast charging adaptive charger, camera quality
Cons: speaker when covered up accidently, slippery, headphone jack position
I would recommend this to a friend!

Out of this Galaxy

Samsung Galaxy S6 is the most advance smartphone currently available in the market. Right from its fluid exteriors to the wonderful and buttery smooth UI Galaxy S6 is through n through the best smart phone in the market. I think I made a good decision moving from iPhone 6 as S6 offers all that iPhone 6 had to offer and more.
Pros: Bright display, Durable, Lightweight, design
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great product

I love how fast this phone charges. Great size. A little faster than later model. I also really like that the volume buttons are designed a little different, easier to use when in a call. I like where they placed the power button a little lower, now it is not in the way of picking up phone.
Pros: Realistic color, Durable
I would recommend this to a friend!
