    Super easy to use and navigate thru all the apps. I previously had an iphone and it was so complicated to use at times. I went with a Galaxy based on my sister's recommendation. She also was a previous iphone user and loves her Galaxy!

    I recently upgraded from the Samsung S4 and there was a minimal learning curve. Aesthetically, it is pretty much the same phone with some slight differences. The screen size is slightly bigger and there are more color options. If you liked the S4 or S5, there are no reasons not to pick up the S6.

    I loved my Samsung Galaxy 3 and just wanted to continue with the galaxy 6! I have found the samsung phones are more user friendly then like Apple and maybe LG. I'm definitely not an apple fan. I also love the picture quality!!!!

    This phone was worth waiting for. Sleek, quick, very intuitive, great camera, screen clarity is impressive. I think it is as good or better than any iPhone I have seen used and has better battery life than all of my friends iPhones

    Falls Short of Expectations

    I'm a long-time, loyal Samsung phone user so I was excited to get the Galaxy S6. Unfortunately, the excitement was short lived. This phone is "buggy". It started out being fast, really fast, but it wasn't long before it started to bog down and become agonizingly slow. It appears Samsung and Google are aware of this problem because Samsung has already developed a "fix" for it and is doing over-the-air updates on the phones gradually. I'm still waiting for my update. Another highly annoying feature is the limited customization of notification reminders. While I can set which apps give me notifications and I can turn off notifications when desired, I am stuck with Notification Reminders. If I don't immediately clear a notification the phone will remind me with audible reminders at specifically set intervals. I can choose the interval, but a 5 minute interval is the maximum so if I don't clear a notification my phone will sound a reminder every 5 minutes until I clear it. The other option is to have no notifications, or put the phone on silent all the time. Really Samsung? Please bring back the option of No Notification Reminders. As I continue to learn the phone I find things that are good but also things that I'm less than thrilled with. Overall, the various little "buggy" things I keep finding create more annoyances than I would expect from the newest phone from Samsung. It makes me miss my previous versions.

    This is my first smart phone, so I don't have much basis for comparison. That being said, the reception is great, it has good sound quality, and the processor speed is very good for apps. I wanted a phone I would be happy with for at least 2 years, and I believe this was a good choice.

    I had the Galaxy S5 and was very happy with it, so I upgraded to the S6. The S6 is faster with performing basic needs of a phone. I'm not a social media guy, so I can not review the functionability on the social media realm. The two things that are missed on the S6 from S5 is that the Galaxy S6 is not waterproof and there is no expandable memory you can add yourself.

    I always choose Samsung phones. I have never had an issue with this brand. The only drawback to this phone is the battery life. I find myself having to charge it more often when running the wi-fi or just playing a game for a limited amount of time. Other than this issue, it is definitely worth it.

    Love my samsung galaxy s6. Upgraded from the s4 and love all the new graphics, color options to customize such things as text messages. Organized most commonly used apps for Google, Samsung etc into their own single icon. Easy to use. Not disappointed at all with choosing this phone.

    I purchased 2 of these in gold for my oldest and youngest sons - same phone as their brother, but they liked the gold color option. The phone is terrific, very reliable and fast on all the apps they use. Camera is top notch, even has a "pro" mode for taking manual control. Excellent!

    My husband and I both needed new phones and picked these. It is user friendly. The camera is fabulous. The whole experience went smoothly because of the helpfulness of the Best Buy rep. We also have taken advantage of the free Samsung tutorials at Best Buy. Highly recommended.

    My college aged daughter switched from an IPhone to a Samsung because the camera was better. Overall she likes it, but had trouble with group messaging with friends with IPhones. Took a while to sort out, but she finally did. She also misses some of the texting emojis that were on the IPhone but aren't on the Samsung. Not major issues, but they were bothersome for her.

    So far so good. I've had a flip phone for nearly 11 years, so the S6 is taking a bit to get used to but I'm learning something new every day. The S6 is easy to explore on and do things that I didn't expect. I've use the Google Maps device to find my way around Washington DC and have loved the Samsung Milk Music. Definitely a great phone for the 60+ population.

    Honestly I don't see much change for better or worse. I did not know about the no replacement battery until I had it in the bag. The batteries always need to be replaced long before it's trade in time. I hope this does not prove to be a problem. Overall I am not impressed or unimpressed.
