AnonD-146024, 24 Dec 2015I requested only S6 edge users to reply. Don't understand w... moreIn fairness the guy is hinting at having plurel s6 models, the way he's written, I'm writing this from an s6 edge and have no such problems ,havn't ever experience burn ins either..
I suppose it has to be said we don't know who writes all the anti samsung stuff or thier motives, we do know we cant validate what any phone was put thru to arrive at the damage we're told, someone has. If I personaly had listened to all the (what after years myself have found to be lies) lies on the internet, I would never have bought a galaxy phone, with millions
of other I'm glad I found out the truth for myself first hand , I prefer samsung amoled screens to everything else I have tried.

      Wow TW looks amazing now, probably the best skin in the market besides stock of course.

            droid , 23 Dec 2015there is 3 option if android get it ( ios have it already) ... moreI think you already have 1. and 2.
            Atleast on S6 there's the option for that, if I understood correctly you can turn sync off and restrict mobile data/ wifi use for background apps (all or those you choose)
            There's the ABP browser for Android.
            And I couldn't understand very well but if 3. was to choose which app can have certain permissions instead of agreeing to all, that is introduced in 6.0 Marshmallow.

              AnonD-137201, 23 Dec 2015You and me both... I really don't like these new icons... ... moreMe too.
              God, those square icons are disgusting.
              I didn't want to update to 5.1.1 because it introduced the Note 5 icons. Eventually I did :/
              Now every app + that white/blue notification panel.
              And washed out blue in the settings app.
              But, I like the inclusion of blue in those on/off switches and on some other places.

                The beta program is good idea. Maybe Samsung will prepare better software (in this way) :). I think that beta program should be avaliable for all users who wants to test it. It could be much better. All test should be done at wide and big group of users! Not for only one or two countries!

                  Anonymous, 23 Dec 2015Any one in doubt these are the best phones on the market, c... moreI requested only S6 edge users to reply. Don't understand what made you still respond. If you don't own the S6 you'll obviously don't see what the issue is. Other who have S6 edge have responded that they also see the status bar sticking on the Home screen for a couple of seconds.
                  Your love for samsung is pathetic. I have S6 edge & love it. Does that mean if I get burn in issue with screen, I should keep quite? Go to xda and look for S6 edge screen burn issue. You'll get many complaining about it. Wonder why it never got posted here.
                  PS: Not all Amoled screens are same. s6 edge/Note edge are different from others because of their flexible nature.
