Great Phone, Case Required
on July 20, 2015

For the short 20 days I owned this phone before its untimely demise, I loved it. It is almost everything I could want in a phone. I went from the GS3 to this and it does everything better except for surviving basic falls.
Biggest Con:
I bought this expecting it to be as durable as my last phone, but that is not the case. It had its first fall and landed on linoleum bathroom tile and shattered itself, even with a ballistic glass protector on it; i guess that'll happen when the whole phone is made of glass. Yay 20 days in. If I can afford to replace or repair it I will buy a case for it. Its a shame that such a beautiful phone will be covered by some gaudy plastic or rubber.
On a different note, there's a ton of apps and software that comes installed that I will never use. There should be no reason that candy crush and clash of clans should be installed on this and to make things worse, I accidentally updated this over my 4G instead of WiFi when I first got it and all this junk I didn't need was put on. Ill have a data overage this month.
Some Pros:
The rear camera is fantastic. This has always been a deciding factor in purchasing phones. I never thought I would say this but the selfie camera is pretty good too..good enough that ill actually use it now. The display is sharp and vibrant, great for doing quick photo edits. The GPS connects well unlike with the GS3; I have a phone that doesn't think I'm driving in the middle of a body of water. The speaker isnt bad for its size, and the location is alright too, its no longer on the back where it is muffled when placed down. I unfortunately havent had this phone for a long enough time to give a more thorough review. I would recommend this phone, but I would highly recommend not dropping it.

Pretty good phone...

I use my phone a lot and have many apps active. I upgraded from the S5 to the S6 because I wanted a more powerful processor since the phone would occasionally freeze or delay. I still see some small delays on the S6 but for the most part, it operates very smoothly. I DO NOT like how the battery is stationary nor the fact that it does not take an SD card...really don't like those 2 features!
Pros: Bright display, Realistic color, Lightweight
Cons: expensive, stationary battery, does not allow for an sd card
I would recommend this to a friend!

Awesome performance

This replaced my iPhone 5. I was looking at getting an iPhone 6 or the S6. I choose the S6 because I picked up a galaxy tablet about a year earlier and loved it. The phone is super quick, I have not had any problems. The batter does go a little fast for me, but they make up for it with the quick charge option.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, Lightweight

The product offers most of the features available for smartphone technology. The cameras are fantastic, the processor can work flawlessly with all the apps, and the storage is perfect. It has superb battery life and chargers very quickly. The speaker is great as well. Being lightweight, it is easy to carry. The size is perfect as well.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, battery life
Cons: a bit pricey

I upgraded to the S6 from the S4. It was a very simple process to switch and no learning curve. This phone is fast and has excellent screen quality. This phone is perfect for in the office, in college and personal use. The default keyboard makes it easy and quick to type and there are many settings to customize the phone to be exactly what you want.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Realistic color, Lightweight

Loving My New S6 ♡♡♡
on July 19, 2015
Posted by: Maxwell119
from Sacramento, CA
Expertise:Intermediate
I upgraded to the S6 from the S4 (which I also loved) and am thrilled by the new model. The phone itself is aesthetically pleasing design wise, the quality of video and pictures when viewed on and produced by the phone are stunning in terms of detail and vividness of color, it's easy to use and navigate around through the different applications, the sound quality is great as well, and I love the new feature that allows you to close all open applications quickly and easily. It does have a few shortcomings. The phone overheats often and quickly and I hate how the new email works because it only shows your most recent emails in the inbox even if you've saved them there deliberately to come back to later - this forces me to have to go on my laptop to access them which is very inconvenient. All in all, however, this one is a winner and I'd definitely recommend it.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Lightweight, easy to navigate
Cons: over heats, expensive
I would recommend this to a friend!

Excellent over-all

Galaxy S6 will not give notification if text thread is opened like my Galaxy S4. Annoying when expecting a replay while occupied or driving. One has to constantly look at phone for replies. I miss the feature of having a sound/ vibrate when text received. I want it back! PLEASE!!!
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight
Cons: lack of text notification
I would recommend this to a friend!
