[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] D4rk_nVidia:
Im coming from an Samsung Note 3 because of an good offer.

It was a nice phone but I didn't liked Samsung and thought this will be my last phone from samsung .

After seeing reviews about the M9 and having 3 LG G Flex 2 with display problems I took the s6 because it was probably the best smartphone yet. Yeah it is, I like it but the ui is not flat/minimal enough for me.

The size is a bit small for me because of an 5,7" and a 5,5" phone before

What is soft nav?
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Japultra:
I think software navigation keys?

Not sure why people prefer the back key on the left though. It's the most used key and 90% of people are right handed so having it on the right, close to your thumb, just makes sense.

I came from the G3 and was also disappointed in the larger G4. I think you'll be perfectly happy with the S6. The only downside to this phone is the battery life for a lot of people, but I've gotten mine to average about 32+ hours per charge with 4+ hours of SoT.

There is a root method called PingPong root which doesn't trip Knox.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZoZo-:
I had a LG G2 before my S6 and I'm completely sold on the S6. It's not only beautiful but it's also blazing fast and the camera is just stunning for a mobile phone. I'm running Nova Launcher Prime instead of TouchWiz for all those functions that I would like root for and I have also switched the back and recent buttons on the phone so that the back button is on the left, a lot more natural since I've got fairly big hands and I have to almost twist my thumb to press the button. Might even turn on software navigation buttons and just turn off these.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dlotters:
Prior to the S6 Edge, I've only every had one Samsung phone and it was the Galaxy Nexus which was half Google.

My original intention was to upgrade my HTC One M7 to the M9 (I skipped the M8) and promptly changed my mind to the S6 Edge when the phones were announced.

I loved my HTC One and got used to having a non removable battery or sd card slot. I do like the S6 Edge too. I would imagine it would be a similar experience if I had the standard S6 instead of the Edge given the similarities.

On screen navigation bar.

---------- Post added at 11:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:53 AM ----------

Because for me its easier to reach my thump over to the button than it is to pull back my thumb and reach down. Being closer does not necessarily make something easier. Also if I an holding it in landscape then the back button is on the top closer to the natural position of my thumb. Also putting the buttons up on the screen makes them an easier for me to reach then having them lower ON the phones body.

For me Soft Nav is only uncomfortable if I try to use it left handed, I am right handed however. and I find the Samsung layout completely uncomfortable to use.

[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jonathan-H:
If you're right handed the back button needs to be on the right. Lot's of alien handed people around :p Zero reason for righties to need the back button on the wrong side. FACT :p

Back to the question at hand. I like it 80%. If the screen was better it'd be perfect.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] godutch:
I personally think most of Duarte's design decisions suck. That guy must have acromegaly and use a tiny 3.4" phone. Before he started messing with android stuff was is a lot more accessible places for one handed use by right handed persons.

The easiest place to reach is bottom left, then bottom right, then top right and hardest of all top left.

On topic after having used the s2 back in the day and not really liking Touchwiz (good phone still though ) I actually enjoy some of Touchwiz, certainly after rooting and sorting the app drawer alphabetically
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dandrumheller:
I could not agree more. The combination of eliminating the menu button, and putting the 'hamburger' in the upper left, while all these devices are moving to larger screens was the worst possible decision for one hand right handed users.

Best solution I know of is LMT. It's an awesome, highly customizable PIE launcher. Soft keys (including menu button) , app shortcuts, and a 'pointer' to reach upper left one handed for those of us with smaller hands. It's got a thread here on xda.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SilkyJohnson:
A Nexus runs stock, not TW. So you've technically never used a Sammy phone.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dlotters:
Well, it was made by Samsung. That's a Samsung phone. But I get your point and yeah, I've always despised the TW interface on Samsung phones belonging to my friends.

Truth be told, I don't really like it on the S6 either, even with all the talk about it being less bloaty than ever.

I'm running Nova Launcher and I've frozen whatever Samsung apps I could. I've also switched the sms and keyboard apps over to the Google ones. It doesn't get rid of TW but does lessen its impact.

Honestly though, if HTC could get their act together when it comes to cameras then I'd probably go back.

honstely, I'd be better of buying the G4. This phone is slow and battery life is below average for sure. This is coming from an experienced user and former Samsung 'Fanboy'
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LNJ:
Hardware wise, the worst Samsung phone I owned was the Galaxy Nexus. Man what a piece of **** it was!

Loved my Captivate, S2 and Note 2.

The G6 is awesome aside from the caveats already mentioned. WiFi usage seems to consume more battery than LTE which is probably a driver optimisation issue.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DrearierJester1:
Your phone is defective or you are just trolling. Go grab ur plastic G4
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] exxi:
The truth is that Samsung can just not leave all the deep integrated bloat out of the system and it's causing the slowdown
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] godutch:
for me the system is smooth except for scrolling in chrome and opera. I still have to test the stock browser a bit.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WolfsFang:
Coming from the first gen moto x the S6 is in a whole other universe. It takes great pictures, screen is wonderful, I can hear videos through the speaker, and the whole build quality is amazing. I do get a few slowdowns here and there though, nothing that would make me rage. I was really aiming to buy the LG G4 and was just using the S6 as a placeholder but I think I feel in love with the S6.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] supremekizzle:
You guys are killing me. I love the G2. I pick up my girlfriends G2 all the time, but every time I play with the S6 in the store it calls to me. But $200 vs. $700
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] x70xchallengerx:
I'm a former HTC fanboy (lol)

my first smartphone was an HTC Droid Incredible, then an HTC Rezound, then an HTC Droid DNA, and finally an HTC One M8.

All of these phones were great to me, and I regret nothing, I also believed they were superior to Samsungs and motorola and LG at the time, still do.

However with the direction HTC is going with the M9 (safe) I can't justify upgrading to the M9. Some of my favorite things about this S6 (edge) are the screen and the camera, the screens on M7/M8/M9's are super LCD and while that's perfectly fine and not sub-par at all, super-amoled just blows it away in more ways than one. And the camera in the S6 is stellar, the camera in the M9 is really unimpressive to me, just like the M8. I've heard reports that the quality of the images produced by the M9 is similar to those of the Galaxy SIII, sad.

I'm loving this S6 so far, in every way aside from the battery life for me isn't amazing just yet, I hear the newer firmwares help and the 5.1.1 update should help a lot too, but I'm only getting around 3hrs screen on time right now, which is mostly the same as I got on my M8. Other users are reporting 4-7hrs screen on time which is awesome, but despite many efforts to cut down on power consumption, I'm just not seeing similar results.

another thing is even though this phone is lightning fast, it's not quite as smooth as some of the htc 5.0.1 / 5.1 roms I've tried recently.

both of those things I'm sure can be fixed so I'm happy with my purchase (y)
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LNJ:
DxO just reviewed the camera on the M9 and it is just barely better than the M8. I believe both M8 and M9 finish last among 23 phones tested.

The latest Google Play Services seems to have fixes some battery consumption issues for me but that could be placebo.

Here you go. I'm using the Nilkin tpu nature case and it looks and feels like there's no case at all. I haven't dropped it yet but it seems to have enough protection for the screen around the bezels where a casual drop will protect it.

[ZenFone 2 Accessories] ziddey:

It looks good but for a couple of bucks why not get both. I noticed the Nillkin tpu case protect all the input slots. That'll be helpful against dust getting in. I'm not a neat freak but I like added protection.

[ZenFone 2 Accessories] Trotter516:
I have a black one of those coming as well. I also have an Amzer Pudding TPU case, a Nillkin crystal clear case, and another knock-off window case. I have already received a black Sparin case and am using it until some of the others arrive. Since I was unsure what I would like best I just went with the shotgun approach.
[ZenFone 2 Accessories] nathan118:
What do you like best out of the Amzer and Nillkin? Looking to get one of those. What I really want is for CruzerLite to make some cases...but who knows if that will happen.
[ZenFone 2 Accessories] Trotter516:
I literally just got the Amzer... checked the mail box as I drove to the store for a few things. The Nillkin won't show up for almost two weeks I'm afraid. I may receive the faux window case from China before it gets here.

So far I am liking the Amzer better than the Sparin case. I used a Folsom TPU case on my OGP and so I am used to the look and feel.
[ZenFone 2 Accessories] Pilz:

Einzige Window Case

I received the Einzige today. The jury is still out on it as far as I am concerned. I will give it a few days and see if it grows on me. It uses a built-in/glued-in semi-transparent TPU case to hold the phone in the case.

I also received the Sojitek screen guards that I had ordered. Too bad they came in several days after I got my tempered glass screen protector. I may try to find someone local to buy them for little of nothing, which is all I would get back if I returned them to Amazon.

I still have the Nilkin clear case coming and another window case from off of eBay that is supposed to replace the rear cover instead of using an attached TPU case inside of the cover.
[ZenFone 2 Accessories] deathmaker06:
Thanks for the photos. You pretty much sold me on the Nillkin Frosted Matte Slim case. I'm actually awaiting the Nillkin tempered glass as well.
[ZenFone 2 Accessories] Trotter516:
I went with the Monoy tempered glass. It had free shipping (actually had Prime on it when I ordered but I guess they ran out for now) and did not have to ship from China. It has a cutout for the proximity sensor.
[ZenFone 2 Accessories] Techronico:
I'm using this case right now. It's great. I wouldn't call it "rugged" as it is marketed, however, this style is more protection than the standard TPU case.

Thanks!
[ZenFone 2 Accessories] Trotter516:
Just realized I had not upload pics of the other cases. My bad. The first two are of the Nilkin Crystal clear case: back of phone and three-quarters view. The last two are of the Chinese eBay knock-off window case: back and front. This one is not too bad other than not making as tight of a seal as the original back. It does not have NFC, obviously. The second pic also shows the top of the Monoy tempered glass screen protector; notice the hole for the proximity sensor.

Overall I am using the Nilkin as my main case/cover. I like the window cases well enough but the windows in both of them are smaller than the original Asus window case. I normally carry my phone in my shirt pocket and the window cases seemed to bug me.
[ZenFone 2 Accessories] ey3pod:
How's the comfort level on the window case? Does it provide a good grip? Can you post a picture of the aise, I want to see the thickness.
[ZenFone 2 Accessories] onesky:
I don't know if it was already reported but i am having issue with a neutral tpu case and flash pictures. It seems that the borders around the led flash make as mirror and add a light soft spot on the top of the pictures. That may occours to soft tpu neutral cases that have separeted holes for volunes button, camera and flash. I didn't test any neutral case with a unique hole. Pictures follow, with and without case, flash on
[ZenFone 2 Accessories] Trotter516:
The comfort level is fine, I guess. You can't fold the cover all the way to the back as it causes the screen to turn off. I am guessing the magnet is the culprit. The case itself adds next to nothing to the phone as the cover is very thin, basically vinyl in and out and what feels like stiff plastic in between. The back of it is smooth plastic but not the slick kind; it feels like the skin of a gaming mouse.
[ZenFone 2 Accessories] ey3pod:
Yea I noticed that as well, at first I thought it was the camera setting, but I'm glad I'm not the only one. I've since switched to using the frosted nillkin case because i like the style.
[ZenFone 2 Accessories] glock24:
I've encounteres similar problems with clear cases for other phone models. I think this is due to the hole for the flash being too narrow that it catches the flash light and reflects it to the camera lens.
