I think the S5 is better. Samsung really dropped the ball with the 6. My 5 is waterproof, has a bad ass camera, a removable battery and an SD card. The 6 is just an iPhone.

If it was steel, I'm sure Samsung would proudly say so. If it was 50% stronger than an iPhones aluminium frame I'm positive Samsung would boast about it.
No, I bet it's some tin, zinc or copper alloy with a painted on "brushed aluminum" finish.
Samsung missed the mark on these phones, should have stuck with the features that made the Galaxy phones popular and just upgraded to a higher quality of plastic.

AnonD-341196, 15 Mar 2015Is no one going to mention the fact that the bottom is a ri... moreIt only looks similar because the speaker and headphone jack are on the bottom.
And because the frame and design apple copied from Samsung like the note 1 and ativ.
And the speaker grill is designed more like lenovos.
Should they have put the headset and speaker on the side? Or used square speaker holes?
Or use a triangle shaped frame?
And Samsung be original in reference to apple??? Lol.
Apple who stole the names iPhone, iOS, and iPad? Who copied the Samsung SGH-Z610 and LG Prada for design? And biya everyone's parts for their device? And uses all thought of tech.....how original indeed

AnonD-341196, 15 Mar 2015Fandroids have excuses for everything. Face it, the camera ... moreIthings have a denial and side track to everything.
Did I say I care how you think it looks or that people have to like it? Nope. You can think its ugly if you want. That is just side tracking from the facts I just pointed out. Without moving the camera or making the S6 a lot thicker there will be a hump.
For the iphone there is no reason or excuse

MrGenie, 14 Mar 2015does anyone know whats the break down on the storage.. in m... more..don't worry about your storage. Go for an OTG (on the go dual USB-storage stick, like from Scandisk, approx. $30 US for 32 GB).
Don't understand whats makes people so hard up on storage

Last year, bought my wife the S5 (very happy, as a matter of fact: "promise, this will last for a looong time)".
Now, a bit more than a year has passed and as soon as she saw the GS6 *edge*, she told me, she dreamed about it. Ok, this time, this one will last a loooong time (?????)
She gives horsesh*t about removable battery, sd-card, etc, but definitely appreciates a set as good as the GS6 *edge*.

The only good thing about this mobile is it will push done the price of the S5. And already the S4 is a bargain. Still have not address the security issues of Android. Perhaps that that is why they Samsung will use BB software.

The fact about this whole thing is that people would always complain. Add all the features and the perfect sign, they will still complain. Human wants are insatiable. The naked truth is that most of them wouldn't still buy it even if it had all the specs and best design.
Samsung knows who they targeted and those who are willing to buy would buy it.
I'm buying the edge.

., 14 Mar 2015They removed the most defining features of the s series and... moreThe best selling Android phone was a fail? Oh because they thought it would sell more means it's a fall even though it still sold very well and offered more than most other devices....
Copied the finger print scanner? You mean the thing apple copied in the first place that existed on other phones up to 10 ish years prior?
How about how apple stole the names iphone, ipad, and ios?
Or copied the Samsung SGH-Z610 and LG Prada for design?
Does that mean every phone in the world copies Samsung for playing and recording HD content?

Anonymous, 14 Mar 2015Ok so until now u needed a screen protector and with this p... moreThe iphone camera sensor is smaller and lacking OIS so even slightly more smaller.
And is placed in the top corner above the display being able to use majority of the whole thickness of the device.
The Galaxy's camera sensor is larger and has OIS and is in a thinner body where it sits behind the display like it always has...
There is no excuse or even reason the Iphone's protrudes. Sony's is also a much larger sensor and sits in the same place and is flush enough.
And the metal used in the Galaxy is 50% stronger. And I don't think it's using Gorilla Glass 4. And since when was cheap bendable aluminum more durable?
And what does it have different looking from the iphone??? Hm...The front, back, colors, frame.....As for the similar looking shape and design why did the Iphone copy it?

Why, oh why, remove the micro-SD card slot and force users to live with an inferior non-removable battery? Design? No! Cost cutting? No! Those are the ONLY reasons I've never considered buying a NEXUS. With those two critical factors out of picture, having the latest and greatest Android OS will give NEXUS a significant advantage over most everything else. Oh well.

MrGenie, 14 Mar 2015does anyone know whats the break down on the storage.. in m... moreThe Note 2 easily had around 11GB usable. Which is average for a 16GB. Half??? lol ok.
And for a 32GB 26-28GB usable is normal. They trimmed back Touchwiz, but Lollipop also takes up app storage space of it's own. So probably somewhere in that frame.
