I upgraded from an S3 to a S6. What a nice phone. Great resolution on the screen. It is slightly bigger than my old S3 but still fits in my pocket. Wireless charging is nice. Pretty quick too.

Before buying this phone I had the Samsung Galaxy S4. The s6 is even better. It's fast, the camera is great and it's easy to use. There are so many features to help people with health conditions like color blindness. This is a great phone.

This is without a doubt the nicest screen I've ever seen on a phone. I upgraded from the S3 and this phone is leaps and bounds better. It's super-fast, runs things quickly and video and pictures look incredible. Highly recommended.

This phone is the best phone out there right now. So happy we decided to go with this over the iPhone 6. It does so much the iPhone cannot, like custom themes to change the icons and sounds of your phone. It comes with double the storage (32 GB instead of 16 GB for the base model) and it has a nice, premium feel to it. It's very light and sleek. Make sure to get a tempered glass screen protector for it, and then get a case for the back and sides.

As I stated in the summary, this is a nice phone. If you are content with the onboard memory, in my case 32GB, this is an excellent phone. But if you are expecting to be able to install an SD card after you have bought the phone, you will not be very happy. Another gripe about it is the lack of ability to change the battery. If you are one to purchase the phone and have it for several years, there is a likelihood that a battery replacement is on the horizon. I have read about people complaining about the low battery life, this is not something I have experienced. In fact, just recently I had the phone on without using the power save mode on for just over 48 hours and it was still at 17% battery life. That was a moderate amount of Internet browsing and lots of text, email and phone calls. The build quality is also excellent, it actually looks and feels like a premium phone. The sound output is leaps and bounds above the s5. Overall it is a great phone when you get beyond the memory and battery issues.

Picked up this phone after trading in my HTC one m7. My first impressions were pretty good. Wireless charging is very convenient for me.
After a few weeks I found the bugs. I have to power off my phone for an hour because my WiFi gets buggy. The screen itself is pretty big Hands and without a case it can be hard to hold on to when laying down. The swipe screenshot function isn't perfect yet. There was a built in setting I had to dig to find to get snap chat to work. Having location on heats up your phone to the point where it sends you a notification saying your phone is too hot. I'm not impressed with the amount of themes or widgets available. Besides these specific points, there's no doubt this is the best phone I've had. I also recommend picking up a samsung watch to go with it.

Decided to upgrade my cell phone from a Samsung S4 to the new S6. I considered the S6 Edge but did not see the extra features as worth it for me. The S6 is great and very similar to the S4 so using it is easy to transition. The S6 is a tiny bit longer but it still fit in my horizontal hip holder. The Verizon cell phone operation is great with clear voice and good reception. The camera is better but works a little differently. I took a class a my local Best Buy from the Samsung store and it was very helpful. I would recommend the Samsung classes to everyone. Love all my Samsung products.

Easy transition from S4, love the bigger size and ease of use. Camera takes great photos just don't know it until you click since the screen often shows them like they're blurry but afterward they are great.

I've had the phone for one month now. My previous phone was a Google Nexus 4. I miss a lot of things about my Nexus 4, like no bloatware. Hard getting used to it again after years without it. I like the fingerprint security. The settings are pretty easy to use and grouped together. My battery life has been good, unless I've been playing a lot of games, talking a lot and using a lot of data, I get more than 24 hours on a charge. I like to start each day with a fully charged phone so I don't often go into the next day without charging it. The 'selfie' camera takes decent pictures. Though I have the 32GB version, I still wish I could add memory. I missed that with my Nexus 4 also. I haven't often wished I could remove the battery so that isn't an issue. The memory issue is a problem - I hope they get that fixed soon.
I haven't explored all of the features but I like the phone so far although that could be just because it was time for a new one.

I had the S4 and loved it! The S6 camera takes GREAT pictures and it's very user friendly. It was a very easy switch from the S4 to the S6. I'm not really excited about the fact that you can't expand the memory and have to decide how many GB you want at the time of purchase.

Still better than an apple product...

Samsung is not permitting the user to insert memory sticks like they once allowed. Samsung is going the way of apple by requiring the user to purchase the phone with the pre-determined amount of memory already installed. This is one of my gripes with apple products. The rep said that the back cannot come off the phone anymore to access the battery, and since the memory stick went next to the battery, neither can be accessed anymore.
All else is about the phone is pretty cool... I upgraded from a galaxy 3, and it was hard to decide between the note and the galaxy. Since the galaxy had the latest technology, I chose it. If the new note was out, I would have chosen the note.
Now I use my Galaxy 3 (with a 32 GB stick) as an "iPod" to play music... It works great, and has retained many functional Wi-Fi features, just no phone capabilities... So keep your old galaxy as an MP3 player!

This phone is my favorite so far. The camera takes great pictures. It is easy to navigate. The screen is big enough for me to see clearly, but not so big that the phone doesn't fit in my pocket.

New to smart phones, I invested a LOT of time watching and reading reviews online. Most reviewers gave this phone high scores. Camera is all its hyped up to be, Amoled screen is Killer (bit oversaturated), and device is a load of fun for a smartphone newbie (me) to play with. A good looking glass build that made me feel the need to protect w/good case which negated good looks. I knew going in that battery was a weak point, "weak" is a kind description. The fast charge helps, but still....bigger battery needed! Call quality is just ok, it is a "phone" after all. More features then I need. More money then I wanted to let go of. Oh, a nice feature for me, a person with no typing skills, is voice to text. Now I can post/reply to fb, ig. easily, or chat online with, for instance, Best Buy Or anybody else's rep., and not be timed out of chat....that is frustrating..

I had an S3 and this phone is a massive improvement. Much faster, can handle multiple applications open at the same time without slowing down. The battery life is great, I can go a day with medium use without needing a charge, with heavy use I find I need to put it on the charger sometime in the evening (heavy use = streaming music will using other applications). Also, the quick charge cord that comes with the phone is awesome, only a half hour will get you about 30% back. The camera is much improved and it seems like the focus ability is much better than previous versions. The screen resolution is great, videos and pictures look great on this phone.

The S6 is a great phone with much better battery life than older models. Takes great pictures and fingerprint log in works well. Voice calls seems clearer as well. The quick charger is a great feature, although the phone gets pretty toasty during the charging period. I purchased a desktop wireless charger from Verizon that makes overnight charging and grabbing the phone in the a.m. very simple. Ample memory so I don't miss the memory card slot. This is my second Samsung phone and I'm happy with the purchase.

No complaints. This is my second Samsung Galaxy phone. Clear, bright, great screen. I love the power saving feature. Perfect if you are on a long flight, camping, or just not near a power source... it will hold for days on the power saving mode! Fast and never seems to skip a beat. When I'm away from a bluetooth speaker, never fear... the sound just straight from the speaker on the phone is great. So many features, I haven't even had a chance to explore them all. Definitely worth the upgrade.
