Very Disappointed S6

I hate to say this but I am very disappointed in the new S6. I cant talk to much about the features because the battery doesn't last long enough for me to take advantage of them. I have to use the phone for work and unless I limit ANY usage other than the bare necessities it will be dead by the end of the day. I have power save turned on and still I can practically watch the battery drain as I use it. I cam to Samsung from a Droid Razr Maxx and I never had this issue. I am even afraid to use the music feature for fear of total drainage by the end of the day. I am also very disappointed in the wireless charging, I can put phone on charger at 8 PM, and in the morning 5 out of 7 days it will be at 67 to 85 percent in the morning. What is bad is that I bought 2 of these phones, for myself and 1 for my wife. booth phones have the charging issue, I cant say much about the battery on my wife's, but she never uses her phone except to text a couple times a day and to play solitaire before going to bed. I would greatly appreciate anything that can be done. I have only had this phone for a couple weeks...not happy to say the least.
Pros: it looks better than it works
Cons: Poor quality, Did not meet expectations, battery, wireless charging, functionality, so far extreme disappointment
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Don't buy this phone

I have previously owned a Galaxy 2 and Galaxy 5 an had been extremely pleased with those phones. My husband had a Galaxy 3 which he was pleased with. I even purchased a Gear Fit and paired it with the Galaxy 5.
The Galaxy 6 is a battery hog and it overheats all the time. Today was the worst, I had to charge the phone three times. All of the suggestions on the web are useless. Tried them all and they do not work.
The phone will overheat just carrying it in my purse. Checking email or using it for anything for maybe 30 minutes causes it to overheat. Don't even try a game, you might just burn your fingers. Many times I have held it in front of the AC vent in the car just to cool it down because nothing else worked. Tried all of the suggestions I found on the Internet and nothing has worked. I don't think it likes the Gear S or bluetooth.
I would like to get a different phone but I am stuck with this for another 20 months. UGH!!!!
Pros: can't think of one
Cons: Poor quality, Did not meet expectations, poor battery life, overheats
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I had previously had LG Androids, boy, I did not know what I was missing! This Samsung is so far superior to what I was used to that I seem to use it constantly. I'll never have anything else!
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, easy to use
I would recommend this to a friend!

This device is fantastic. Packed full of features, sensors, and gizmos... and built out of aluminum, this is by far the best android phone in existence! The display is gorgeous, and I love the feel of the phone.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display
I would recommend this to a friend!

Review of Galaxy 6
on May 29, 2015

The battery life is absolutely terrible and the only reason I returned them both less than 12 hours after purchase. If the battery will not keep up with me on a normal day (I don't use much data and shut down unnecessary battery drainers) I don't need the phone. I was below 40% battery life 5 hours after I took it off charge. Fix the battery life and I would keep the phone.
I purchased my first Samsung (Galaxy S6) product after years of dedication with another brand. It took me a little while to warm up to the operating system and learn the functions but all-in-all, I was excited about the change. Then about 3 months in, disaster struck. But first let me say, I’ve always been careful with my phones. I work in a harsh environment so taking care of my electronics has always been a top priority. I’ve always purchased a case with durability and impact resistance in mind which I did with this phone. In 12 years, I’ve never had a problem like this one. While reaching for the morning alarm on the night stand I bumped my Samsung and it fell to the hardwood floor. It seemed like such a minor fall (about 2 feet) that I wasn’t even that concerned about it. It was in its ruggedized case and had high quality safety glass over the front. When I looked at it a short time later I noticed a purple spot in the upper left-hand corner. I couldn’t believe that short of a fall, with all of the safety factors in place, would cause the purple spot! Well, it got worse. As the morning progressed, it went from a purple spot in the corner to ¼ of the screen, then ½, then ¾, then 100% black. It seemingly oozed across the screen. People have told me that the phone would have to land a perfect way in order to have this kind of damage from a 2ft. fall. None the less, this does not meet my expectation for durability on a portable device. By the way, my expectations are not ridiculous; I do not expect a device to withstand a 5 foot drop on cement, a two second dip in a pool, or 10 minutes next to a burner on the stove. However, I did expect my Samsung Galaxy S6 to withstand a 2ft. fall from a night stand.
Pros: great interface, camera quality
Cons: Did not meet expectations, not low impact resisitant
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We're to start ,for one you now can not upgrade memory, no slot for micro sd card,you can not remove battery it is sealed so when your battery goes bad good luck. Also now you can not be on the phone and Internet at the same time if not in 4G . Now the positive it's a phone you can make phone calls,I should have just stayed with my S3.
Pros: Realistic color, Bright display
Cons: Did not meet expectations
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
