Hi There,

Well its possible to have soft keys on screen. You can do that only when you are on a Custom Rom. Change the UI in Settings.

No external memory, no exchangeable battery, no way! What alternatives do we have if we limit this discussion to high end Android phones?
[Galaxy S6 General] am2354:
I agree with the all the key points made by EvanWasHere, furthermore, the reason I didn't go for the iPhone, is because no matter how much internal memory they give you, everything you load into your phone such as pictures, video, music, apps., etc......... Will eventually will impact the performance of your phone, unless you upload everything to a virtual storage, such as Drop Box, Google Drive etc...... I think I am going for the Note4.
[Galaxy S6 General] Rosa Elefant:
No replaceable battery makes the AMOLED screen the only reason to still stick with Samsung. Given that a Galaxy phone is still pricey, I wonder if it is this one feature which is worth sticking to Samsung.

Looks like they don't like non-business customers to buy their devices anymore.
[Galaxy S6 General] geoff5093:
I'm not sure where you get $300-$400 from... There is no 16GB S6, it starts at 32GB. Also many Android phones go up by $50 per storage capacity, while a few go by $100 increments. Either way, you are looking at either $100 or $200 more for a 128GB over a 32GB, not $300-$400. Stop being so dramatic.

USB 2.0 is 480Mbps (60MB/s), and from my SanDisk 64GB MicroSD card I usually get around 50MB/s on my USB 3.0 card reader, so it's really not that much slower.
[Galaxy S6 General] VICosPhi:
Why downgrade?

1. No micro SD slot

2. Non user-replaceable battery

3. Non user-replaceable battery cover, can't install dual sim adapter, useless unibody design specially when I travel.

4. Not water resistant. I use my S5 to take pics when inside pool, in rain, in snow, in Ocean as well. Unibody design should make it waterproof..unbelievable that its not even water resistant!

5. Not buying is the only way to show Samsung they their "Vendor lock in" strategy has failed.

I blame all the idiot tech journalists that are in bed with Apple and claim metal body as "premium feel/design". I also blame the sheep people that agree with these opinions. I do understand if some people genuinely prefer metal body, at least they got what they wanted in terms of design, not sure about features though.

Going to wait for G4 and Z4 now, or get Note 5 as Samsung will be back into their senses by then.

PS SanDisk just announced a 200GB microSD to rub salt on our wounds !
[Galaxy S6 General] malek777:
I agree with you on some of the points . No micro sd is a huge one. But this dramatic change is much needed for samsung because the s5 wasn't doing so well and if they came up with another s5 then it's going to be a big loss for them. I personally think this is the best decision samsung took. People got tired of the same recycled galaxies and the numbers are showing this. Sales are down apple is back things aren't looking good.

The galaxy s6 would've been amazing if it had a bigger battery and a micro sd. Otherwise, this is truly a powerful device that's much more polished than any previous iteration.
[Galaxy S6 General] GreeleyXda:
memory cards corrupt (especially the higher capicity san disk)

do you know how many bad card readers samsung phones have had? its liabillity plus the fact the android makes copy to sd harder now.

theres wifi almost everywhere, so cloud storags is an option.

they sell phone cases that have extendable batteries built in. and u can still change the battery if ur willing to take the phone apart.

if thats all thats stoping u from using an iphone, u really dont seem to interested in what android offers over ios then
[Galaxy S6 General] tenxo:
Nothing against you bro, but I just want to point out something so quoted you!

Sales are not down because of recycled galaxies...think about it for a second. Sales are down because of the saturated market, and all the super phones! I won't name them all since you can pick just about any to compare and we see the power of these devices i.e. the note 4 what CAN'T it do, the S5 the g3, I phone 6, Nexus 6...

All of the above mentioned are the reason sales are down.

Same reason why development is down also, the devs have so many choices and devices to support it got overwhelming...think HTC HD2 had so many devs they were tripping over each other cause everyone had that phone. Now not only many phones also variants like edge, active, mini further hampers this.

While I appreciate your points, this is probably how the discussion went at Samsung that led to the poor decision to drop so many of the staple features. The case argument it's the worst...7-9 hundred dollar premium phone and you need to buy more stuff to make it work like it used too (should)! TAKE THE PHONE APART??? Ya they took that feature away REMEMBER!

No external memory and non user replaceable battery is deal breaker for you for SGS6, but you will move to iPhone? On iPhone can you swap battery or you have external memory? :)
[Galaxy S6 General] riz157:
Some interesting points I personally could live without non removable able battery and possibly sd card forsake of a beautifully crafted premium looking phone. However I fear Samsung are going to go crazy on the price which will be a complete put off. Base price is £579 for the 32gb version and probably another £50-£100 for next model up, which is a rip off just like iPhone.

Edge will probably come in at £699 for 64gb which is crazy even though it looks fantastic.

having said all that I'm really pleased spammy finally moved away from crappy plastic which was really costing them just one more major change required get rid of TW and possibly amoled and try lcd.
[Galaxy S6 General] MadBob:
Yeah, Second thing I usually do with my phone is root and flash to stock to get rid of TW.

First is to swap the microsd out from my old phone, and buy a spare battery and plastic case, so premium build is sort of lost on me, and the rest....

Setting my hopes on the G4 now.
[Galaxy S6 General] Japultra:
For all of you who are ranting about this phone not having a removable battery, I ask a serious question: How many times have you actually swapped batteries out? And if you have swapped, is it because you basically let your phone die (meaning you had opportunities to charge it but didn't just because you had the battery)?

I don't think I've EVER had my G3 die on me - and this phone is not known for its battery life. I have a charger at work and a charger at home and I'm usually at one of these places so I'm never far away from a charger. Does not having a removable battery IN ACTUAL USE really make that big of a difference? If the S6 can last you from morning to night, is that not enough?
[Galaxy S6 General] Rosa Elefant:
My S4 is currently carrying its third battery, the two previous ones (one Samsung, one third-party) slowly died of old age (decreasing health with increasing charging cycles). I rarely forgot to charge my phone over night. It's just that I'd like to use it until the actual hardware fades away, not just until the battery lifetime is reached.
[Galaxy S6 General] istperson:
I've never switched the battery in my phone, well since my Ericsson T18. But there wasn't a phone since that I ddin't have to remove the battery to turn it off completely, because something got stuck and kept crashing. Or it was the easiest way to boot into recovery after a boot loop. Tablets without removable batteries have reset switches, but any software method you use can't reinitialize hardware as a physical power off can.
[Galaxy S6 General] CLARiiON:
This thread was inevitable. I mean Samsung could even make pigs fly, but there will be threads like this. The whole galaxy section is littered with such threads, which shows the sorry mental state of our society. Just relentless cribbing, crying and whining.

You know what, I get it you don't like it, you won't buy it and like some other device. Perfect. Why don't you go to HTC/LG/Sony/Apple forum and post a positive comment why you actually want to buy that phone instead of crying in this S6 forum? Saying something positive (don't mean astroturfing) is much better than reading this non-stop negative comments.

- So you feel that you should encourage others also not to buy the phone

- You want sympathy from the other members that Samsung failed to live to to your high standards and expectations

- You want to start a movement to force Samsung to stop the launch and give you want you wanted

- You feel the members are not educated enough to judge what's good for them

- Just sharing your thoughts and feel obliged to open a new thread even though the exact thing was mentioned probably 7450 times in last 2 days.

^^ These are the only options I can think about. If this is the usual 'sharing your feelings' option, I think one of the Moderators should open a "GS6 SUCKS" thread where everyone of us can go and put all our diatribe.

We have now come to a state where these comments/threads are nothing but a

Apparently the base model for the UK is going to be the 64gb model so I don't know how this will affect the pricing which has not been confirmed anywhere . If you go on the Samsung UK site they only have 64gb and 128gb listed .
[Galaxy S6 General] Tron666:
This will save dumb buyers from buying too small of a memory size.
[Galaxy S6 General] Rippley05:
Sounds like the s5 is perfect for you! No need to buy another phone....unless you're one of the "sheep" that believes you MUST upgrade every year.

The unibody design is the only real difference over the s5. A faster processor that you won't notice unless you use an app to tell you how fast it is, and some minor software tweaks. The good news is, you already have the phone to fit your needs!

Can't please everyone. The number if people crying about a removable battery is small compared to the ones who don't care. Samsung s6 sales will be through the roof with this new design...then what argument will you guys make? Keep your current phone, problem solved.
[Galaxy S6 General] guent_peer:
I have all in all 3 batteries for my S4, two of which have already been replaced since they strongly lost capacity. When I'm travelling I quite often need the third one. Also, as already another user has stated, if you see you're down to 30 % or less, you do not have to worry, just pick one of your spare batteries which uses up much less space than an external charger and is nowhere near as heavy...

It's ususally those who already own, have owned a lot of Samsung devices, or wanted to come back to Samsung, who complain. And yes, this is XDA, for those, who want to root, mod, hack and develop for these phones. And knox, and even more closed architecture than the Notes 3 and 4 slowly makes it too much to bother.

i dont like the htc m9 or the nexus 6 but im not going to make a page long post on each of their forums...

[Galaxy S6 General] barondebxl:
Lmao! These sensitive people crying about the lack of micro sd slot and wanna move to an iphone....idiot!
[Galaxy S6 General] EvanWasHere:
Yes! This is 100% attention seeking. I want the attention of other like minded people, where Samsung here's our voices and hopefully doesnt do the same to the Note 5.

I'm not here for Internet points.

I'm not here to dissuade others.

I've purchased at least 5 Samsung phones in the last 4 years. I also have the Tab S 10.5. This isn't about other manufacturers. Usually, the S models and the Note models share similar upgrades (like the Note 4 Edge and now the new S6 Edge).

It is VERY much my place here to have a voice. This forum is for critiquing models, ROM, themes, do's and don'ts, accessories, etc.

If you don't like this thread, don't comment on it.. and it will be moved off the front of the general page.

15. Keep posts/threads on-topic

General Forums - For news and announcements relating to your device.

Announcing why you aren't buying one and all the reasons seems to be a complaint/whine thread and seems completely unnecessary and frankly its not conducive to anything positive..Making a thread in S6 general basically saying "im not buying this phone and heres all the reasons why" is just asking for confrontation. Your replies have solidified that opinion as well.You claim Samsung will "hear your voice" here well guess what? they heard peoples voices crying out for metal and premium materials and a better camera and less bloat.. the problem is that people (especially on the internet) are NEVER happy and people tend to use the anonymity of the internet to act in a way they would most likely not act in a real face to face conversation. No phone is ever "perfect" since we all have a myriad of opinions on what "perfect" would be.Samsung does what Samsung always does and thats attempt to reach the masses.Some people think that these phones are made especially just for them or to rom or geek out over when the average consumer probably never roots,never takes the camera off auto,and just uses it stock.. Don't like the phone? don't buy it.. But going out of your way to make a thread just to complain is neither productive or helpful to anyone and just looks like someone is letting their emotions over a phone get the better of them..
[Galaxy S6 General] EvanWasHere:
I respectfully disagree.
[Galaxy S6 General] dandroid13:
He has a good point, creating a thread to announce why you aren't getting the device on the device's forum is just, not logical. :p

While I agree with you about the sdcard slot, about the battery, well, not so much. You (we) can't compare it to iPhone or anything just yet. You seem to not consider the fact that the new Exynos is a 14nm SoC (the smaller the die less energy is needed), the new BCM4773 chip also means less power is needed and they even said during the presentation that the technology wasn't good enough until this year to justify non-removable batteries. Well, now it is. :)

You can also check this out, it's a good read. It may be kinda fayboyism but it also makes sense: http://www.androidguys.com/2015/03/03/7-reasons-next-smartphone-samsung/

I swear I was joking about the iPhone part. I'm too far in to even think about going to iPhone. I actually have 4 iPads and have even retired that for the Tab S.

I hope the new processor and new memory will use less battery.. but there are still times when I want to drain my phone watching a movie or using it as a wireless tether, and having a spare battery in my jacket or pants, will make me know there will be no issue sending texts in a few hours.

That's a great article.. and I agree with all of it!

op, " i hate samsungs non-removable batteries. im switching to iphone..."

[Galaxy S6 General] EvanWasHere:
Where does it say that the battery pack is wireless?? From my understanding, it's the size of the phone and requires a cable tethered to it.

And the fact that we need a new phone ever 1-2 years is my point. I don't want to have to pay extra for the memory of a phone that I will no longer use.
[Galaxy S6 General] DrkGhst87:
It truly is to each their own. I've had my S3 since launch and I have never had to pull my battery to restart my phone, nor have I had to swap batteries on a whim. I wake up with a 100% battery, work 8 hours, throw it on my car charger on the way home, and won't put it back on the charger until I'm about to go to sleep. I browse the web, reddit, listen to music, watch an occasional tv show, all with just my stock battery from day one. I bought a 64gb SD Card because I quickly filled up my 16gb of onboard memory and haven't come close to filling it. I backup my important things like photos, videos, titanium backup files, etc. on my computer every once and a while, while never thinking about what would happen if my phone ever broke. I've taken advantage of cloud based storage and set up most of my things to backup while on wifi, backing up my important things instantly when I get home.

Don't get my wrong, I was hoping for them to keep those features for convenience sake but I personally am not all that bothered by it now being gone. If it's a feature that you're looking for, there's a slew of other phones out there that offer those features for you and go for it. But IMHO, I don't think Samsung is going to change back anytime soon. I'll be getting the S6 edge in 64gb if available, and won't look back. If anything I'm more worried about what Verizon is going to do to butcher the phone....
[Galaxy S6 General] istperson:
Besides being plain rude, you're even wrong. Not all AOSP ROMS are buggy, the latest Cyanogenmod is as good now as good as a stock ROM will ever be. Not to mention, there's still no offical Samsung Lollipop ROM for my region.

And so far the Samsung devices were the best platform to have strong hardware, great screen and camera, and the choice if I wanted to mod my device or not. Maybe to scratch my itch to try out things then even to return to stock if I get tired of playing around with modding. Knox was the first step to make this hard, and now Samsung wants it to be even harder.
[Galaxy S6 General] dandroid13:
The other day some dude quoted me saying that his GS3 camera is buggy when running CM12, so yeah, it still has issues and I'm not trying to offend you by any means.

What do you mean by harder?

[Galaxy S6 General] furfmonkey:
i dont pay for my new phones outright .. (seems silly) just use the new every 2 verizon and the new edge program etc... i doubt ill need more than a 64gb phone since i use cloud based storage and onyl transfer movies etc with a pc

as for the battery pack i read it somewhere (checking history for source) either way the s6 (both)are supposed to have over 8hrs video playback .. if you watch that much on your phone in a single charge you have bigger problems than the battery IMO .. in the last 5+yrs i think i have watched maybe 1 complete movie on my phone ..

---------- Post added at 09:00 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:56 AM ----------

nail on the head... same boat with verizon etc... i think im actually leaning towards a reg s6 (the edge screen might have odd video playback will have to see in store) and the notifications and colored lights for friends etc seems like a gimmick and probably not worth the xtra $200 over a reg s6 (even tacked on to a monthly edge payment .. then again who knows i might pick up that edge for the first time,love the ergos and be in heaven :)
