It exceeded my expectations by far! Way better than iPhone! Before I had my galaxy s6 I owned the iPhone 4s which was okay, but I knew I was missing out with all the cool android phones. My friends would always tell me how much better the androids were and they would always leave me wanting one, and now that I finally have the awesome technology that everyone's been talking about, I realize what I've been missing out on and now, I can't be happier!
Moved from iPhone to s6. My first impression. - wow Here is what I like about my s6. 1. Fast cpu. No delay. It'seems almost instant between actions. 2. Great filter choices for taking pictures and movies clips. 3. Face edit mode. I love this. 4. Easy linking with Google apps. Email, photo,drive and more 5. Useful widgets 6. Copying and transferring files so much easier than iphone. I hated iTunes 7. Fast bettery charging speed
Cons. These are things I believed need to be improved 1. BATTERY LIFE. It won't last more than than 3-4 hours with fully taking movies, using GPS or web browsing. I had to buy extra portable charger. 2. I keep hitting the power button and turn off the screen with my thumb while I adjust the volume when I hold the phone sideway to watch a movie. 3. Detecting fingerprint isn't really accurate. 4. Hard to get a refund for scam app I downloaded 5. I can't get improved myself with typos. Either I have fat thumbs or keyboard isn't smart enough. 6 battery. Again
Pros: Inexpensive, Realistic color, Lightweight
Cons: battery life
I would recommend this to a friend!

1. Best Camera 2. Fast & Responsive Interface 3. Awesome fingerprint lock & security 4. Lightweight 5. Feels good in hand and has good grip to hold on the side 6. Beautiful display 7. Premium design 8. Good Battery & Fast Charging 9. Good collection of Themes 10. Sufficient internal memory
Our combined age is 139 years, so my wife and I are not as tech savvy as most folks who might buy these phones. We had Samsung SIIs and traded up to the S6 for a variety of reasons. The phones' performance is good and we're still learning our way around. By both of us getting the same phone, we can experiment separately and share our learning.
Pros: Bright display
Cons: Too big

iPhone to Samsung

Always owned iPhone from the beginning...Samsung has come through with the new Galaxy S6. Keep up the great work
Chrome crashes. Messages get erased. Don't receive all group messages. Picture messages erase sometimes, but automatically get saved to gallery, so you might not see then in the text thread but will appear when you open your gallery (Most people use apps for messaging, I don't believe in downloading in app with ads for something the phone should be able to properly do.) Besides that it's pretty awesome, it's like a laptop on my phone. Download and create/correct full pdfs, excel, and word. It's not complicated to use it's as easy as an iPhone (has easy mode, which prctically makes your phone change to an iphone layout) but with more features and better camera. Has many camera feautures. Finger sensor lock doesn't work as well as iphone. Screen is practically the same size as the iPhone 6 plus (a few centimeters shorter.) Honestly the s6 is the better upgrade. Long lasting battery, charges way fast. Love the multi split screen. Hate the pre installed software apps, but can easily be deactivated. Hate that I have to press show images for every single email. Just s6 has endless functions that are necessary and useful. Besides the few dumb things I have to deal with overall happy with the phone and would not change it for an iphone.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, long lasting battery life, charges fast, mini laptop create/download full pdfexcelword, many great camera/photos hop features, screen practically same size as iphone 6plus, can be put in easy mode (iphone style), really loud speaker louder than iphone 6 6plus, amazing picture display quality, fast software. will open anything fast, multi window (split screen)
Cons: erases messages from group text, erases pictures from messages, receives anonymous blank text thread, receives message not found blank text thread, chrome (internent) crashes. will close as soon as, have to manually click show images for emailsos, lock screen finger sensor isn't as good as iphone
I would recommend this to a friend!

Galaxy S6 is possibly the best phone I've ever put in my hands.
