      No! No dual 12mp camera crap.
      They should have just stuck to a larger improved sensor!!

      If they at least use an improved aperture like rumored and keep the dual photo diode focus while improving the software to better the focusing and not process so aggressively that would be nice.

      However it's just a temp fix mostly. And I would hope they at least send improved software to the s6 camera line

                                90 screen-to-body ratio? Really? What a pleasant surprise! That'll be something the customer will notice instantly if they have owned a smartphone before. The customer does not need at customer service representative to point that out.

                                        a) samsung wont pay enough for desigenrs
                                        b) they are blind
