Let me premise this by saying that It aches me to write this at the moment, for I spent a mere twenty-some days with my S6 before I got mugged and was deprived of such greatness. If anything, let my frustration be an indicator of just how awesome this phone is. The metal and glass finishing feels sturdy and ergonomic, with a beautiful, large screen and an impressive resolution to match. The fingerprint reader works wonderfully well, and the setup is quick and easy. The power in this phone allows it to run a multitude of apps at once without a hitch. And the battery life? Not once did I run into the issue of having my phone die on me, and when it got close, all I needed was a quick charge to be up and running (the quick charge feature is amazing as well). Setting up my Samsung account was a breeze, as it now synchronizes with Google, and everything was kept synchronized for me without even having to think about it. The Samsung health features were part of my everyday routine, using the heart rate monitor, stress indicator, and pedometer to track my health on a daily basis. Both cameras work incredibly well with its active HDR, and the resultant pictures are crisp and clear (best selfies I've ever taken, that's for sure). The sound is impressive for a phone of its size, and it's GPS did an amazing job, even when among tall buildings. I could go on, and on, and on.. I loved this phone, and in a very short time it became an essential tool in my day-to-day life due to its reliability and ease of use. Thank you, Samsung, for creating such a beautiful piece of technology. I only wish I hadn't been deprived of mine so soon!
This phone has been the best thing for me. The features are easy to find and use. Thank you
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display
I would recommend this to a friend!

My S6 is an excellent 1st Android experience!

I have had a Blackberry Bold and iPhones 3 and 5 in the past. My new Galaxy S6 is my first Android experience and it's a good one. I am enjoying the sharpest screen and graphics I have ever experienced. The speaker is loud enough for both phone conversations and for listening to music. The features and performance are excellent, especially noting the strong signal and fast Internet connection. It is comfortable in my hand even when using the top-notch camera, which renders sharp, clear photographs. Personal customization is infinite. The only drawbacks are the well-documented lack of a removable battery and SIM card, which I'm sure will be addressed in the next version of this phone. But with 32 GB, I wouldn't expect there to be much trouble with storage space on this phone. (Additional plug-in storage is also available for any phone today with a USB port.) The battery is good for a full day, although it could be better. I would not mind a little more thickness for these two options. One aspect of this phone is the ease with which it synchs with my Google Calendar on my desk-top computer - a big thing for me. All in all, the S6 is a top-of-the-line phone that delivers 5-star performance.
Cons: no replaceable battery, no removable sim card

I recently upgraded my S4 to the S6 and haven't looked back. Sleek, intuitive and responsive. It's like having a personal assistant in my pocket. A friend of mine owns an iPhone 6 and wishes he had held out for the S6.
I just built a new home and also purchased a new Samsung side by side refrigerator (Samsung flat screens aren't far behind).
I thought the galaxy s6 would be too wide to handle but it for perfectly! I was happy with the smooth transitioning switching apps. The music background features are convenient.
