Frequent Updates, Solid Product, Just a Few Annoyances
on July 14, 2016
Posted by: URSoMyHero
I continue to have a good experience with the S6. There have been regular security and OS updates. However, three things stand in the way of higher praise:
- The gesture-based screen capture (swiping across screen from edge to edge like a windshield wiper) is not that well thought out. For people with disabilities or for those of us with cases like Otterbox that come around and over the edge of the screen, getting and keeping contact while sweeping edge to edge is hard to impossible. All that is needed is to add a software button to the pull down options (WiFi, Sound, Bluetooth, Flashlight, etc). A single tap and the screen underneath is captured.
- There is a pop up every time Mobile Data is turned off (same happens when enabling location services, but due to the tracking nature that notice is slightly more tolerable). It is annoying to be forced to acknowledge this every time that I want to conserve my battery. I should be allowed to enable and disable Mobile Data just as annoyance-free as I can with WiFi.
- Lastly, I'm not sure if it's contractual with Google; however, it would really be nice to have the option to set any application to the Home button. I see a single option (take it or leave it) to open the camera with two quick taps of the Home button, and holding the Home button activates a Google search page. Being able to customize these for quick-access to any applications of our choosing would be nice for personalizing the day to day experience with the S6.
Thank you.

My first smartphone

This was my first smartphone and I really enjoyed being able to do anything online from wherever I am. I especially like the hotspot function since I can't get internet in any other way at my house. The only reason I did not get 5 stars across the board was because it does not have a way to add memory.
Pros: Bright display, Lightweight
I would recommend this to a friend!

I absolutely love this phone. This is the first galaxy I have owned, couldn't imagine having another brand now.
After three years with a Samsung Galaxy S4, I'm glad to have the S6. It's been a relatively easy transition because so many core functions remain consistent. I especially appreciate the large size of the phone, as well as the crisp graphics, the nice camera, and the lengthy battery life.
Pros: Durable
