Most of the comments are about the phone being overpriced.What would you expect? the phones top of the line with parts in it.The price's of future smartphones well always increase since the parts are always increasing in price.Not to mention the R&D expenses for them to utilise those expensive parts.If you cant buy it then dont their are thousands of options available that would maybe fit your budget.

        The fall of Samsung will forever be the rise of HTC. S6 & s6 edge are not near the m8. If you're to criticize m8 it will be on what ground unless you hid behind camera. S5 never moved people so is S6 guess what I'm loving it. Majority of folks that I using samsung are using Note series. Samsung is the servant of iPhone when iPhone says Jump Samsung says, how high. People are not blind they are aware that samsung is doing what iPhone is doing. Even s6 looks ugly I wonder what people see when they refer s6 as beautiful. Nothing beats M8 so far. Nonetheless, HTC for life no matter what

            I dnt understand when people say this phones are over priced.

            Its got the latest hardware built inside it
            Exynos 7420 chip is better than SD810
            LPDDR4
            UFS 2.0
            Gorilla glass 4 front and back
            Base model 32GB
            The edge version is costlier to make than the regular version

            Do you expect them to lose by pricing the phones down?

            The price of S5 and S6 is the same at lunch.

            How is it then overpriced?
            This article isn't complete. The reason why it's less sold is cos it wasn't available in more countries. It got released in 20 counties while s5 got related in 120 countries at lunch.

            The edge version interests buyers more but unavailability of it due to slow production or the color/memory size not been available.

            It's will see more numbers now that the supply has met the demand(blue topaz, emerald green, marvel versions)

            N. B the active version is coming with the features missing here likewise Note 5 would be released with those features.

                      even if its overpriced, i will buy this phone if the following features will be present; micro sd card slot, removable battery, waterproof and fm radio

                        The S6 is an almost excellent phone, however Samsung again missed the boat with horrendous battery life and to add insult to injury, you can't remove the battery. Also, they shouldn't have eliminated micro SD support and they should have retained the IP67 certification or bumped it up to IP68.

                        I hope they've learned their lesson and do not make the same mistake for the Note 5.

                              Air has leaked out of a hypothetical blog, 70 million forcasts was overshadowed by side curved only. Samsung Will have to sellinf each unit at chinese Price by 3rd qtr. Just see what Will happen to N5 Edge forecasts.

                                        for me these are overpriced phones!

                                        And as for the comments saying that the next Note 4 Edge or this S6 is a beast don't you get sick and tired of the same bla bla?!! every year it is the same but as soon as you have the phone in your hands and after a few months the problems start to appear and then ok sammy is releasing a new beast...

                                        Sorry but they can't fool me, for me only WP or IOS rocks. A single Lumia 640 runs as smooth as a S6.
