Samsung Galaxy S6 review
The Samsung Galaxy S6 lifts Samsung's flagship phones into a whole new league design wise. It's gunning for a position alongside the likes of the HTC One M9 and the iPhone 6 and under the lid are a list of components that will appeal to those willing to splash out the £600 that the phone costs.- Beautiful industrial design
- Excellent camera
- Very powerful
- Speedy charging
- Pin-sharp screen
- Unimpressive battery life
- No removable battery, expandable storage
- Not waterproof
- Expensive
Samsung Galaxy S6 Review: A Much-Needed Makeover
After spending a few weeks with it, it's hard to consider the Galaxy S6 anything other than the best Galaxy phone Samsung has ever put together. It erases what may have been the series' biggest drawback, takes steps towards tightening up its second-biggest, and packs a top-notch camera, display, and...
A good phone to look at, and great to use, but beware its construction
I was impressed when I got the phone, can it is certainly has a great look and feel. The phone was really easy to set up, and it is very inituative to use. The camera is brilliant quality and takes fantactic pictures.
For years, we've harped on Samsung to stop building its smartphones with creaky plastic and bloated software. The Galaxy series is Android's flagship brand, but Samsung has rarely offered the best Android experience. Now, in the Galaxy S6, change has finally come.
- There is no faster
- more capable and feature-rich smartphone on the market today
- It's great to see Samsung integrate metal-and-glass into its design
- but the result lacks distinctiveness next to the similarly styled iPhone 6
Samsung Galaxy S6 Review: A Much-Needed Makeover
It wasn't long ago that build and design was a secondary concern to smartphone shoppers. Just a couple of years back, a high-end phone could be considered as such if it came through on the spec sheet, regardless of how the body that held those materials actually felt in your hand.- Premium finish
- Spectacular QHD display
- Exceptionally fast performance
- One of the best main cameras around
- No water or dust resistance
- Battery life is average for this class
- Front-facing camera is too
- A little too liberal with its inspirations
Samsung's image has lost a lot of its former sheen; even more so when it comes to the top-end Galaxy S range. Under more pressure than ever before, the company is betting on a major reinvention. Gone is the cheap plastic, in favour of slick aluminium.
Samsung Galaxy S6 review: It's what's on the outside that counts
Take a critical look at any Samsung flagship from the last six years, and you could apply the same complaint to all of them: "this 'premium' phone doesn't feel premium." While Samsung has aggressively pushed the envelope on screen sizes, SoCs, and extra hardware features, the exterior of their...- A spectacular camera
- Better than the iPhone 6 Plus-yep, we said it, Big improvement in materials
- Glass and aluminum make this Galaxy actually feel like it's worth the price tag, Qualcomm dropped the ball with the Snapdragon 810, and Samsung was one of the few companies with a viable alternative...
- TouchWiz is still bad
- The Flipboard home screen is a laggy hack
- Apps hide the status bar for no reason
- Things look different for no reason
- Your OS looks like TouchWiz, but you'll be using an entire ecosystem of Material Design apps, The G6 supports always-on voice commands that can wake up the...
It happen every year and yet this time it feels different. Samsung's much hyped and highly praised smartphone has made its way to South Africa and we've finally got our hands on one for more than a few minutes to see what its like.
Samsung Galaxy S6 Review
Your move, Apple. Samsung's Galaxy S6 is a gorgeous reinvention of the long-running flagship phone, sporting a slick metal-and-glass design and a rich feature set that puts it toe-to-toe with -- and sometimes above -- the iPhone 6 .
On paper, the Samsung Galaxy S6 might not appear as a great update to the Galaxy S5. It loses the water-proofing, doesn't have an expandable MicroSD card and has a smaller battery which is not removable. But all that becomes irrelevant as soon as you pick up the phone and start playing with it.
- + Brilliant Camera Experience
- + Fastest Phone We've Tested
- + Supports Wireless Charging
- - OIS Not as Effective
- - Lack of MicroSD Slot
- - Unpredictable Battery
