I went from an iPhone 4 to this phone. At first it was nice because it was pretty sleek and the camera was great...but the more I use it the less impressed I'm becoming. The battery life is TERRIBLE. I've tried to play with the settings and it doesn't seem to help.
I'm also annoyed with the app capabilities. Notifications from some apps will not show up for me (namely snapchat). Also I have yet to find a messaging app that works well for group messages.
Set up was frustrating, I felt as though there was a disconnect between google and verizon services. There were almost too many things pre-loaded onto the phone and when I was trying to get my account information set up nothing seems to translate between google, verizon, and samsung. Especially on the google things...I kept getting sent in circles when getting it set up.
Hopefully this is just a temporary thing and I will get used to the android system.
Pros: Inexpensive, Realistic color, good camera
Cons: not user friendly, disconnect between systems, bad battery life
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I do love everything it does but I took the plunge and went from a dumb phone to this and I hate the fact that it is sooool huge it takes up my whole hand. I almost brought it back but this is the only bad thing I could find.
Pros: Bright display, Durable, Realistic color
Cons: Too big
I would recommend this to a friend!

The s6 is the best Galaxy phone to own. It has great features, and responses quickly. I only wish it had a better battery life.
I love my galaxy s6 because it has an amazing screen, a great camera, great processor and good battery. I use my phone daily for entertainment, school and social apps. I would recommend this beautiful phone to anyone!
This is a great phone in every way. The only reason I dont give it a 5 is the wifi performance is lacking.
Pros: Bright display, Realistic color
Cons: wifi
I would recommend this to a friend!

Me and my husband both traded our windows and iPhone for the new S6 and couldn't be happier with the decision. I even had to pay some because I was not eligible for a upgrade for another 8months but definitely worth it. The only complaint I have, if you would even call it that, is that the battery does die pretty fast however I admit to not using some of the power saving features. Overall we love our new phones!
Pros: Bright display, Realistic color, amazing camera, fast processor
