darkraver, 08 Mar 2015Oh, whatever pleases you sammyfans, I give up logical reaso... moreSamsung listened to too much of the Apple fans. I've been a a Galaxy Note user for there last 3 years, and I hope they don't have the battery fixed or take out the micro SD slot on the next Galaxy Note. I need those features and the S Pen.
Yeah, very disappointed with Samsung's move to even follow the iPhone's limitations. You think most iPhone users will get an S6? They love iOS - they can't leave behind what apps they bought. They love iTunes - they got use to the most difficult way to transfer media.

If y... moreOh, whatever pleases you sammyfans, I give up logical reasoning with you guys, just like I do with apple fans....
You all are of a same sort...
So:
It doesnt look anything like iphone in anyway, in fact apple went into the future and back and copied s6 all to the bone, even the antennastrips, shame on them...,
and S6 is the most genuine made phone in this quadrant of our galaxy...
That samsung camera is the smartest design ever in history of mankind and any alienkind for that matter
And the tech inside, oooo, the tech...., makes the Gods of Olympus cry of joy...
BS,
I cant believe the price of S6 I found out today...
Yes, even higher than that of iphone6
Well sammy fans, welcome to the idiocracy, that which you once sticked to appleheads behind
Now we have two of a kind...

Most places it is not expensive to buy the adapter.
And while it's a nice option it does not really fully make up for lacking SD slot and don't let someone convince you otherwise. Especially with 16GB or less internal.
Unless you think it's useful walk around with a USB device dangling from your phone.
But it is useful.

Why do all of you worry about the Non SD Card Slo... moreMost of the people that complained about the desing where people on the internet just out to bash and who do not use the device. Or bias tech sites that want to mislead people to think that weaker aluminum is a much more premium and overall better material.

darkraver, 08 Mar 2015Oh I m thinking before every reply, dont you worry, its jus... moreNo. You are simply side tracking with useless claims.
If you are thinking then you are purposefully thinking incorrectly.
I never said or implied anything about design language. That is side tracking. We already understand you don't like the way it looks. That has nothing to do with the point.
The point is that is how they have done it from the start and nothing says they have to change it.
As things are in their currnet state there is a very logical reason why the S6 has protruding camera as shown by the given facts.
For the iphone there is no excuse. It's smaller sensors that sit in a spot giving more than adequate room.
And you ignored being proven wrong about the "copied" design.

Hey Guys! Why do all of you worry about the Non SD Card Slot & Non Removable Battery of 2600 & 2550 mAh...??? So far you all were complaining about the Design of Galaxy S Series...Now Samsung has come with Great Designs with 3GB LPDDR4 RAM & 32/64/128GB Internal Memory Versions. At least you have to understand that Iphone doesn't have the same specifications what S6 doesn't have. Iphone doesn't have SD Card Slot and it has Non Removable Battery. Even though Iphone did a "Great Job in Selling their phones Worldwide". More over, S6 has lots of "Great Features Very Much Better than Iphone"! Camera, Design, Processor, Display, 50% Louder and Clear Speaker, and All...better you realise the Truth and Forget about the Past, Samsung does know better than us!

So you are telling me a placement of OIS camera module behind the screen resulting in a biggest back camera bumper on the market is a better design language?
Come on...

Just looked at Oppo R5, I was smirking at the guy's face that it jad only 16 gb of internal memory and no xd card slot. The guy quickly pointed to me that the phone is otg ready. Can you guys tell me what really OTG is? Is the S6 OTG ready? OTG usb is expensive right?

It has a 290mah bigger battery in a device about 3mm thicker....Yeah..What a bragging right.
And the S6 has a much more energy efficient display that is better in all ways across the board.
And more energy efficient SoC that is much more powerful.
More energy efficient internal memory that is 3x faster and comes up to 128GB built in.
A more new radio chip that combines all radios onto one chip saving up to 80% in efficiency.
Plus faster charging, Ultra Power Saving Mode, and multiple forms of built in wireless charging support.
So battery life, and charging will be a lot better on the S6. As well as the display knocks M9 down, the metal is stronger, the camera takes better photos and is much better in low light, and the speaker is a lot louder.
Plus Exynos version ontop of running cooler, not throttling as much, being better in gaming, it also has the superior wolfson audio dac.
And since when was looking like a Galaxy Note 1 trying to look like an iphone? Oh right....When iphone copied that design.

So here:

And as far as the bottom speaker arrangement it looks more like Lenovo.
And what where they supposed to do? Use square shaped speakers holes and not use plastic strips on the antennas?

Finally Samsung gave up to trolls. S3 had the best shape for a phone, no more now. This phone is non-descript generic slabs.
Glass on the back ...very very bad ideea since the phone will be slippery like this.
No removable battery, meh ... ok , not a big deal , but NO SD-CARD ????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I cant use a phone without a SD-card.
For the first time I will switch from Samsung. I was expecting to tune the performance (aka less bloatware, less spying thing). Huawei is runing circles around Samsung ... just an example.
