My Samsung Galaxy S6 is a really fast and intuitive device with some great features. The only negative things I have to say about it are that the "Help" feature is very limited and the more advanced features are difficult to figure out how to set and operate. For example the "safe places" feature doe not seem to always recognize when I am home, and the finger print recognition does not work 50% of the time (even with 3 different fingerprints on file).
Pros: Realistic color, Bright display, very fast processer
Cons: help has low amount of info, finger print recognition does not work well
I would recommend this to a friend!

First Impression Galaxy S6

I recently traded in my faithful Galaxy S3 for the new Galaxy S6. While I loved my Galaxy S3 it was time to upgrade since my S3 would not support the newest renditions of the Android OS. I find the quality of the Galaxy S6 top notch, performance from the aspect of the hardware is also above par. I can't really anything bad to say about the phone except the battery life is definitely sub par. I'm baffled that in this point in time manufactures have not been able to get better battery life out of Android based phones. I have business phone (iPhone 5S) that has a battery life that far exceeds that of my new Galaxy S6. But, aside from that the phone is rock solid, appears to be well built and fits and feels great in my hand.
Brand new to the smartphone experience and I did my homework prior to making my purchase. Across the board SG6 is rated higher than the "other" comparable smartphone out there. I also have a household full of Samsung products so I knew what to expect in quality of a device. It has been a learning curve for me, however, I am truly enjoying all the things I can do with the SG6. I am pleased!
Pros: Realistic color, Bright display, Lightweight, loving the gold color
I would recommend this to a friend!

Unsure at first, but definitely best phone.

I bought the Samsung Galaxy S6 32GB after thorough research on the different phones available today in the market. When I first started using it, I had certain doubts whether it was any different than my previous phone (Samsung Galaxy S5), and did notice some pleasant differences. However, the reason why I had changed my previous phone was that the battery seemed to have stopped working, and even though I had tried replacing the battery, it would still last less than a day. I noticed the same thing occurring to my Samsung Galaxy S6 as well, so did not really think my purchase had been worth it. It wasn't until after I read on different websites how to solve the battery drainage that I really started appreciating the numerous functions this phone has. From the incredible cameras (both front and back), to the incredible definition of the screen, to the wireless charging and fast charging, to the quality of the sound. These are all different aspects of the S6 that I have come to really enjoy, and more so now that my battery lasts up to 20 hours. I definitely recommend this phone to users who can manage to remove and disable the apps that aren't really needed and that take up much of your battery life.
I received this device after upgrading from an S4. I don't see much difference, other than it's bigger-- forcing me to get new cases. But it does perform quite well. It has a fingerprint reader, but for whatever reason it does not work for me. Perhaps just the moisture or lack in my fingers. The menus are a bit different, so I still need to figure all that out.
