I guess I was a little late to the part and could have waited another 2 months to get the newest Samsung phone, but my old Samsung phone was still going great, so I did not see a need to update. Still I am very happy that I stuck with Samsung. Another great phone, that I expect to get lots of use from.
This phone upholds the level of quality that I have come to expect from Samsung. The features I wish it had are available in the S7. I couldn't wait for the shipping of the S7. So far I am completely satisfied with this phone.
The galaxy s6 is a decent phone. The internals like the ram and battery is great. Lasts around 3/4s of the day with watching a few hours of video. Camera is good. Only problem I have found, coming from a curved back phone is it is hard to hold. The flat back is uncomfortable and just awkward to hold. Having the speaker on the bottom instead of the front is old. With many phones now on the front of the phone Samsung has yet to move it to the front. every time I watch videos or play a game I cover up the speaker, then just muffle all sound, so I have to change how I hold the phone. After awhile it just starts to hurt my hands. Overall it is a good phone with minor problems.
I loved my S3 and I love my S6! Great phone w/all the features I need (and want). Only thing I'd love more is to have a smaller version. Overall, it's fantabulous!
I like that they moved the side controls so that you're not accidentally doing more than what you thought. I do suggest getting the highest memory because there is no place for an SD card. I haven't had it but only for a couple of weeks, and already worried I may need more memory ! It also works great with the flip case using the small window to make calls or answer calls as well as seeing your notifications. Still learning about most of the features though so far so good.
