I really like this phone, and the camera is great! It would have been perfect for me if there were just a few minor changes.
-The glass back seems like a really bad idea to me. I prefer non-slippery backs.
-Not having a removable battery makes owning the phone long term harder as you can't just replace the battery when it stops holding a charge.
-No SD Card slot isn't a huge issue, but it seems like it should be available.
Other that those things I love the phone. It's fast, the camera is great, and the screen is probably one of the best I've ever had!

Fast phone with nice battery life and takes nice pictures.
Downside is there is not any expandable memory slot and the battery is not removeable. The problem with batteries is they will start to loose their useful life between 1-2 years. With past models, I could just buy another battery and it would be good to go. Replacing now will not be that easy.
Not having an external memory slot may save on processing power witch may help extend the battery power between charges. But for people that load movies , lots of videos or pictures, this limits the phone.
If they can add these two feature back to the next model, it would get 5 stars.

This is my first Samsung phone and so far i love it, it's fast, takes great pictures and video at 4khd, fast internet browsing, and no lag what's ever, however the battery is a bit of a problem it discharges too fast so I always have to turn off my data and WiFi whenever I don't use the internet it's good if you buy a case battery so you can charge the phone without the cable which is convenient other than the s6 is the perfect and best android phone to have.

I love my new Samsung Galaxy S6! Its fast, easy to use and takes excellent pictures! I was a Galaxy S5 user and liked my phone, but after a while, the phone would get hot and the battery would drain quickly! Now, with the Galaxy S6, no more battery!! The battery life is awesome! It can go all day on a single charge! Makes my life so much easier, since I use my phone for a variety of uses! I am so pleased with my new phone!

It's a nice phone that works well. Great looking screen, a really good camera and some nice Samsung software. I like that the phone has wireless charging built in. I haven't had any freezing or lock up problems. Battery life is only so-so and the phone has a tendency to turn on in my pocket. My previous phone was a LG G3 and I much prefer the power button on the back.

Bought this phone for my wife and I to replace our S3s and we couldn't be happier. Awesome camera works in all lighting and, as a parent of a small child, the quick launch for the camera is AWESOME for quickly catching important moments.
Lightening fast processing and tons of fun features including wireless charging.
If you need an upgrade, look no further.

I recently upgraded to the S6 from an S3, and I am so pleased! This phone is sleek, beautiful, and fast! From a tech point of view, the camera is amazing, the screen resolution is wonderful, and the ultra power saving mode is a life saver (I had 10% battery left and using this function gave me 4.5 HOURS of extra life!!).
Definitely a purchase worth making!

This phone does everything I need and fast. The camera is great, super easy to use. It charges much faster than my old S5. I also like that the memory is not on a card because with the older S5 you couldn't transfer all of your data to the card, so it really limited the memory you could use for things other than music and pictures.

My wife enjoyed the upgrade of the Samsung S6 from the Samsung S5. She loves the faster processor and it is thinner. I am not sure about the non removable battery like in the Samsung S5. Hopefully, I will not have to do a hard shut down. It works great and the upgrade was quick at Best Buy Mall outlet.

I ended up switching from the color black to white, but other than that it is a great phone. Battery definitely doesn't last as long as say the S6 Active, or S6plus, but it lasts longer than my previous Stratosphere2. I love how fast it is, it doesn't lag or freeze, and the camera is amazing.

Great battery life, great camera. Easy to use (thank you, YouTube!) once some basics are figured out. I'm not a total tecchie and I have no trouble using it. I like the size, not a phablet but big enough to see the screen without straining. All in all I like it a lot.

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.

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.

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.

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.
