I do like this phone a lot, but the battery life would not allow me to recommend this model to anyone. I had the s5 and loved it, so I thought this phone would be better, it wasn't.
I hate that it doesn't have removable memory, so when my phone locked up and had to be reset(it was a bad phone and I got it replaced) I lost all of my pictures. My s5, that wouldn't have been the case.
The battery life is horrible. Everyone in my family has an iPhone and their batteries far outlast mine. I bought a mophie just to keep a normal battery life.
My guess, some of the changes they tried failed. The newer phone has the removable storage and I'm assuming the battery life will be better too. I love androids and have been overall pleased with my galaxy phones, I just feel this wasn't their best model.
Pros: Bright display, Durable, Lightweight
Cons: bad battery life, no external sd card
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

First Time Buyet

First time owing a Smartphone! Love it!!! Would recommend Samsung.
Great phone so far. Terrible battery life. If you do anything other than surf the web you can see your battery life drop like a countdown timer. Good thing for the fast charge feature. Nice camera. Easy to use and understand features. Small enough to fit in your pocket and large enough to enjoy. Nice bright screen.
Pros: Lightweight
Cons: Did not meet expectations, battery life
I would recommend this to a friend!

Still the best phones on the market...

Ever since the Galaxy S6 came out I knew I had to get one! The design, the specs, and all the features. I will put this phone against any iPhone and it will always out perform them, as well as look better! Even before I owned one I would say it was the best phone in the market. Here we are on the last day of 2016, literally, and it's still the best home in my opinion. Since I purchased this phone I have since network unlocked it and I love it even more! The one and only downside... ALL the unnecessary AT&T bloat ware! I am afraid to root my phones so until there is another way I'll just deal with it. The Galaxy S6 was and STILL is the best phone on the market!
I'm not a Hi-Tech guy, this product is simple to use with more features then I will ever utilize It came loaded with apps, The camera on it has great resolution and a really fast processor, I really enjoy the split screen feature with makes surfing a lot quicker.
Pros: Bright display, Realistic color, Durable, Inexpensive, Lightweight, Built-in speakers, a lot smarter then i fun to play with.
I would recommend this to a friend!
