i don't typically trust google with my private stuff like photos, etc. these days corps are driven by greed and who knows what they will desperately do in the future to make a buck. it's only a matter of time before they start scanning your files to understand more of you and what you like and don't like so they can spam you with more ads and sh!t. look at what google has done with the playstore.. now basically app makers are able to spam their apps higher up in the listing if they pay google..

google is getting desperate so i've begun to lose trust in them.. heck, it's only a matter of time before google start pushing ads to all anrdoid users.. i think this was their idea all along with android. anyway, getting a bit off topic now, so yeah... sd cards are important. :P

How'd you get 120 GB of storage?! :eek:
[Galaxy S6 General] blueandigo:
Exactly, I don't trust google with pics of my pee pee.
[Galaxy S6 General] RED_:
Got a Chromebook and they come with a load of offers plus free 100GB storage for 2 years. Using it now. Good laptop for just browsing the net on a lazy day. Not very useful unless I got down the installing Linux route, one day...
[Galaxy S6 General] YandereSan:
Cameras don't come with memory, but phones do. We have potentially a 124gb model here... Isn't that enough?

If you drop your phone in the water? Versus over what, being stolen? You should always back up your stuff regardless.

And regarding the camera being extinct. Cheap point and clicks? Maybe. DSLRs? Far from it. Your phone won't replace interchangeable lenses.
[Galaxy S6 General] dandroid13:
Yeah, yeah, and if you don't have internet access you're pretty much screwed with your cloud. Also, don't forget about the US, UK and all their friends spying all your files, no thank you, mate. :p

Lol HTC is a joke. 2yrs and they'll be history just like Sony is.

---------- Post added at 08:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:43 PM ----------

looks like the edge version to me. if i hold my current edge sideways it has a similar shape with the curved edging

---------- Post added at 08:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:46 PM ----------

agreed the exynos is a far superior chips, 14nm instead of the 810s 20.. it benches higher, it's more efficient, and it doesn't constantly throttle due to heat issues. look at some reviews on the lggflex2 with the 810 and how bad it throttles during normal use. 20%battery use in less than an hour is stated in a couple videos due to the excessive heat. I'm happy they went with their own chips, may not get cm as fast but so what. Samsung is ready working on 10nm technology, and that puts them pretty far in front of qualcomm and their 810blunder. This phone will be a beast, and the only thing more beast than it will be the note 5. period.
[Galaxy S6 General] jdidtht:
spigen ad.. I think it's sexy as hell. I'm stoked for it. HTC just pissed itself Alittle, sticking with the same boring ass design they've been too scared to change at all for the past few years. m9 looks like an old sensation.. lolol garbage. it will have some crappy camera with a made up word like Gigante pixel or some crap like that to disguise the fact it's subpar in every way. I hope HTC uses the 810, and I pretty much guarantee it will be a loser of a device. HTC fans, the apple users of Android. They just didn't get the heat issues worked out man. Samsung did it right this year. as long as their is an SD.. lol
[Galaxy S6 General] tft:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QjFHv4fZQDc

watch the video, has a couple photos and only one i've seen that actually show the edge while it's powered on, seems legit.. also he points out that it doesn't have removable battery or the SD card which seems to confirm most of the other rumors..

i still don't get why the device couldn't have a removable glass laminated removable back cover. i mean there are phones with removable metal back covers..
[Galaxy S6 General] blueandigo:
This post maybe funnier than all of my posts in this thread lol.
[Galaxy S6 General] FIREONHIGH:
will see on Sunday Bloody Sunday,,,,,:cool:
[Galaxy S6 General] dandroid13:
One last possibility is that there will be a different version without glass and sdcard slot or something like that report from a Samsung exec. Here in Brazil, for example, Sony sells two versions of the Z3, one with dual sim and the other with DTV support, so maybe, what we've seen so far is the US version, with something else for the rest of the world
[Galaxy S6 General] blueandigo:
Where's that report, Sonic?

So S6 has 2550mAh battery & S6 edge has 2600mAh. Interesting to see how the battery life holds up. Exynos 7 is upto some great scrutiny soon.

[Galaxy S6 General] blueandigo:
So basically there will be an all metal version? Well I want that right now. Make the glass the premium version that only comes in 64 or 128gb and make the metal 16 and 32 gb with the sd card slot. I'll buy two of the metal 16 gb; one for me and one for my girlfriend.
[Galaxy S6 General] ChristianJay:
I would love to see the next Nexus be this design, in a 5.5-5.7" screen, call it the Galaxy Nexus 2 and add in some stock Android functionality for those side screens! Oh, one can dream.
[Galaxy S6 General] blownupp:
I've been on the i535 just as long and the Note series is looking better and better every day from here...
[Galaxy S6 General] Sacher_Masoch:
I'm maybe wrong but, isn't it the s6 edge design that they used on there official twitter for the chinese new year ?

https://twitter.com/SamsungMobile/status/568442641022636032

If you look at the screen's corners, they look a little incurved. Also on the bottom and the top there is 2 little lines (like we can see on the OP's pictures http://dl-1.va.us.xda-developers.co....jpg?key=Nm3yLH5UwxMORn4fbXvWLw&ts=1425110309 & http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3183748&d=1424899021). Maybe it's just my imagination, but if it is the s6 edge, they already show use the design but nobody has noticed it! :laugh:

EDIT : after looking closer, it's might be the note Edge, my bad :p
[Galaxy S6 General] King p1n:
1. Touch wiz is basically the same just less bloat

2. S6 has the same 16mp camera as the note4 not 20
[Galaxy S6 General] TheEndHK:
S6 is Note4 16MP, but S6 Edge isn't sure yet.
[Galaxy S6 General] vegetaleb:
S6 is not really changing the design compared to S3,S4 and S5, though S6 Edge is a real change.

The big problem is that you should never let it fall from your hand or let it knock something hard or the border-less screen will be hurt badly.

Let's see if Samsung cared about audiophiles as much as HTC does this time
[Galaxy S6 General] tft:
the edge will be the same camera, it wouldn't make any sense for them to put a different camera. i just don't like how it protrudes so much.. guess that's the price you pay for phone to be thin while using better camera.
[Galaxy S6 General] yusuf_fareed:
The Picture you see below is a Note 4 leak image before launch. So read below.

I still feel this is a device made according to the leaks. Just like how they did for Note 4 last year.

Below is the image of the Note 4 Leaked before release. But that is not the Note 4 we are having currently.

So it might not be the actual device. But if it was the actual device then all the suspense Samsung has kept would be a waste.

But if it was totally different from all these devices, then Samsung has done well keeping their devices secretly before launch.
[Galaxy S6 General] ruben_2s:
Well.. tomorrow we'll see, but this doesn't look like samsung official teaser...
[Galaxy S6 General] TheEndHK:
The 20MP ISOCell has mass production problem but not a problem to use on S6 Edge because it will be only produce in small volume. Nevertheless, I won't have money to get S6 Edge...lol...so not a problem to me, though Edge is cool but I also much prefer Sony sensor for its low light capability.
[Galaxy S6 General] Seph32:
Well seems Unbox Therapy has confirmed all these rumors were true.

- No removale battery

- More expensive than iPhone 6

- Starting at 32GB

- No Micro-SD

Alright I'm done with Samsung, their crappy Android overlay, TouchWizz which is filled with bloatware and now this. Samsung obviously doesn't cater towards Android geeks anymore but toward people who obviously don't care about these missing features or that dont know better. Samsung calls their new glass coated back "premium" HTC One would like to have a word but with you... Even HTC realised with the M8 it needed Micro-SD support, also M8 was around €700ish I don't expect M9 to be really more expensive. Samsung is making the same mistake as Google did with the Nexus 9.

Sad that my next phone won't have a gorgeous looking Super Amoled display, but all these compromises are not worth the phone anymore, HTC M9 here I come!﻿
[Galaxy S6 General] lopri:
I do not like the camera protruding but that is where the tech is. Samsung will have to fit an inferior sensor/lense to not have that hump. (Think of having to shove an eyeball into that thin body.. )

But I sort of agree and I do not like that white painting. Leaving bare metal trim without paint might have been better. We shall see.

Such as..? Triangle-shaped? Oval, maybe?

To me the phone looks sufficiently different from the previous S-series designs, while keeping its identity. I am curious what kind of design people envisaged. It is also confusing because some people at the same time say the phone looks like an iPhone, and I do not think it looks like an iPhone at all unless bottom-firing speaker grills are Apple's trademark or something.

I think these phones look great. Especially so if you consider the specs - Exynos 7420, 3GB DDR4, xxMP camera, and 2K AMOLED screen, 2600 mah battery, etc. They are super-dense packages packed with the latest techs.

Loss of removable battery and sd card slot sucks, but I am pretty sure Samsung will keep making phones with those. I think it is even possible that Samsung will have S6 "(active)" or whatever they might call later on with almost identical internals. But that phone will be thicker and not as sleek as these two in appearance. That is a trade-off we all know of.
[Galaxy S6 General] dandroid13:
lol, it's the same I think when I see this type of post. Samsung isn't the same type of company as HTC, that needs to change their design every year to avoid becoming irrelevant in the market, but y'know, people are strange. :p
[Galaxy S6 General] meboy:
When have you seen Samsung make other models with the exact same high end specs of the S or Note?

It's always a lesser chip, camera, screen. Not even close I'm afraid.

I'd be very happy with an A7 with S6 specs but they just don't do things like that and all the downgrades for what's usually only $100 or so difference just doesn't make sense.
[Galaxy S6 General] FIREONHIGH:
I'd be very happy if they make it water proof! To at least 10meters:cool:
[Galaxy S6 General] CLARiiON:
You're a fan of HTC, so you are more than welcome to buy any HTC device you like. You don't need to provide explanation or be defensive regarding your purchase of M9, your money you decide what you want to do. That being said, you mentioned some BS in your comment.

1] Unbox Therapy never mentioned anything about pricing.

2] And even if they did, why should S6 cost anything less than iPhone??

- World's 1st 14nm mobile SOC compared to a 20nm SOC

- Bigger AMOLED display with crazy high resolution. That itself should cost double than a regular LCD used in iPhone.

- 3x RAM, that too LPDDR4.

- Wireless charging built-in

- World's first UFS storage

- Bigger battery capacity

- Metal finish in both with Gorilla Glass 4 in S6.

- Larger sensor with bigger aperture and OIS.

So tell me on what basis iPhone should demand more money than S6? Just beacuse they have Apple brand name??
[Galaxy S6 General] manojmcn:
Valid points. Plus it seems Samsung seems to focus now on increasing the average selling price of flagships.

The S6 edge will help it to keep some uniqueness and there by making public to think it much different from S5 and also the metal A series.
[Galaxy S6 General] Ukkoclap:
Samsung can't make everyone happy I suppose!
[Galaxy S6 General] Seph32:
That's correct, Unbox Therapy didn't say anything about pricing of the S6 has been reaveled for awhile now, so my bad if I made it sound that UT was mentioning prices. I'm not really a fan of the HTC devices, but they have changed the view of Android devices, though I'm more a fan of Samsung. It's true that my latest phone purchase is a HTC M7, but I haven't used any HTC device since the old generation windows phone pre windows mobile. Android devices should generally cheaper, because they have a cheaper casing, less premium feel and iOS just works and looks more premium. Also because of the Apple name is why Apple is more expensive it's like you're now going to compare Beats by Dre to Sennheiser.

I don't wanna sound like i'm shilling HTC or anything, but if you're looking for the most premium Android phone that's currently out it's probably the HTC M8 and the price is pretty fair. All these reasons are mostly not what consumers will take into consideration. You don't need QHD on a 5.1 inch screen when 1080p Super Amoled is already getting you well over 430PPI, again this is not what a consumer cares about. and it also compromises your battery. Wether its UFS, SSD or some other flash storage they're all faster than a Micro-SD. Now let's talk about "selling points" from the old and new Galaxy S lines.

S5

- Super Amoled display

- Expandeable storage

- removeable battery

- IP67 dust -and water resistant

- Richer Tone with HDR

S6

- Super Amoled display

- wireless charging

- More premium build quality

- Glass back

- Metal side

- Richer Tone with HDR

That's about the new and old selling points summed. but these are the main selling points. It's a flagship phone we know it's gonna be fast so saying these specs is only of little value as a selling point.

Obviously Samsung is upping their game to reach a wider audience, but increases their price and setbacks is maybe not the right approach for the new audience they are trying to reach out they are losing their other audience, but we'll see when they announce the sales I suppose. I'm a fan of Nexus as well, but all I can think here is back to the Nexus 9 which tried to reach out to a wider audience too, but was very disappointing in the sales.
[Galaxy S6 General] smooth4lyfe:
Exactly, I think this is a good design change, but people will always complain about something. The iPhone 6 is not a radical change from the iPhone 5 either
[Galaxy S6 General] Seph32:
We're always gonna be complaining about something, and manufactures work with that and improve something and ruin something else, a never ending cyclus.
[Galaxy S6 General] dandroid13:
It's more like hate the big dog Sammy and support the small dogs like HTC or Sony.
[Galaxy S6 General] cleverley1986:
Hmm...

OK I appreciate OP for the leak. Tomorrow is obviously where we find out so people need to chill out a bit. Below are some ramblings. Maybe it makes sense.

So far however, if this is legit this gives me no reason to upgrade from an S5 even though my contract is up. I might go sim only for 6 months and then get the Note 5 instead for the screen size and who knows. It seems as if the S6 is pretty much a smaller Note 4?

I wonder if the S6 will be compatible with the SamsungVR. One would expect so...but with Oculus CV1 likely to hit this year...I suppose the Oculus isn't going to be wireless. Do I really want to buy two headsets? There isn't much content out there either.

Ultimately the "edge" part just seems as redundant as the smart watch. I don't really want to be so lazy that I can't pull my phone out of my pocket or flip the phone so I can read the notification.

A 1440p screen is no different than at 1080p at this size. It's hardly a 27 inch monitor. YES it sounds awesome and also will improve the quality of those like me with google cardboard but I hardly doubt the "drifting" issue will be fixed. 3GB of RAM is good but I hardly feel like the 2GB in the S5 is limiting.

I don't really need a 128GB sd card built in to the device either (Plex, Dropbox and 4G). Seems like an excuse to up the price.

Also a glass back? I had a spigen S5 case arrive before the phone did!

Ugh I don't know what I was expecting...Really what I want is the graphics capability and data speed to clearly run PC games over splashtop a la NVIDIA shield. I have an AMD card so that's out. Maybe a 4K screen so the "fishnet" issue is resolved for google cardboard but then Samsung have no reason to fulfill this as they want you to buy the VR.
[Galaxy S6 General] yahyoh:
complainer gonna complain :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S6 General] MacTheRipperr:
I don't know what some of you were expecting. You can only do so much with the design of a 5 inch display. Square or rounded sides, plastic or metal edges and backs. There is only so much you can do to update the design of a phone. Especially with all these companies being so willing to sure each other over copy cat bs. Samsung is damned if it does, damned if it doesn't. Not every single person will be pleased. If you don't like the route Samsung has taken, let them know with your wallets. But reading the last 10 or more pages listening to people gripe and ***** and moan over this and that is pretty dumb. I get everYone is entitled to their own opinions and that this is a, general topic to be discussed. But let's be civil and adult about it. I for one like Samsung's design, have liked it since the s3. The s6 edge has me pretty excited I must say, but I can't tell for sure until I see the actual device and see it from every angle. Good luck to you guys that are so devastated by Samsung's decisions. Hope to see you all in a different forum in the distant future. :P

This is EXACTLY what i was telling you guys about this S6 leak. When the N4 was leaked with these exact pictures the same week at the launch everyone went NUTS complaining. A week later when we saw the real deal, people looked like fools for ranting about a leak! Lets wait and see the official release before you all make judgments!

This is becoming a trend ... to shut up people that criticizes something on a brand.

We have the right to want something better and not as always to have big promises of a revolutionary thing and then in the end what we get is more lf the same thing.
