Right off the bat, I was excited for this phone. Coming from an S5, I was ready for an upgrade and had passed on the S6 due to missing features. Features that Samsung has so graciously brought back to us like SD card expansion and water resistence.
Upon picking up the phone, you can defintely feel a sturdy build in your hand, and man is it gorgrous. My phones always live in Otterboxes, but I almost didnt wanna wrap this guy up and hide away its sleek beauty. The curved edges on the back added a nice comfortable grip around the otherwise well polished and smooth exterior of the phone.
Bootup times are insanely fast, and the phone itself is super responsive. At one point i had a screen protector and an otterbox case on the phone, and i could still press and control with ease and lightning fast response. Haven't really noticed any slow down time, even with a plethora of apps running in the background, most likely due to the smart app power saver feature.
Samsung also did a great job with limiting their apps so as to avoid bloating over the phone with apps that are never used, but cannot be removed. Since my phone did come from Sprint, their usual apps were present as well, but tucked away in a folder from the start, so I never have to look at them.
Above all else though, I think the newest feature I lovr the most is the Camera. It takes absolutely gorgeous photos in any setting. Even going down from 16mp to 12mp, this Camera is the clear winner.
There are bugs to work out but overall the phone is a great phone
Pros: Realistic color, Durable, Lightweight
Cons: too small
I would recommend this to a friend!

So glad that the MicroSD slot was added back to the latest S phone. This phone is almost perfect, I say almost because Samsung decided to lock the bootloader, to most that is no big deal, to some it is a deal breaker.
