Beautiful device but battery and lag can be issues

This phone has an absolutely gorgeous display, and when the device is fresh off a reboot it runs quick and peppy. But there are two issues we've seen so far. First, battery life is not very good with this phone, even while being conscientious to turn off wifi/gps when not in use. It will make it through a standard 8-hour work day, but it will need recharging if you're going out afterward. Second issue is that if left on for more than a few days, it really starts to see noticeable lag. It's imperative to do a manual power-down and reboot once every few days.

I originally bought this and was weary of the fact that there was no removable back or battery or expandable SD card slot. However, after using the phone for 2 weeks now, I have to say the upgrade from an S5 is well worth it! The pictures are much sharper and clearer, plus, pro mode takes photos to a whole new level! 32GB is plenty of space when paired with 500GB of free online dropbox storage. If looking for a new phone, look no further!

My contract was ending and it was time to upgrade my phone. I had an HTC One and was totally satisfied with it but made the move to Samsung and the Galaxy S6. I have not been disappointed! The phone has been great and I highly recommend it to anyone considering a new phone.
There are differences between how this phone functions as compared to HTC but there is nothing I have found that makes me sorry I made the switch. The mail app in the Galaxy had some little quirks in the setup that I did not like as compared to my old HTC so I am using a third party mail app. Some apps that I was using actually don't work correctly in the S6 but there have always been alternatives that were available to accommodate my needs. Again, nothing serious that causes me to regret my choice. And speaking of apps, the Smart Switch app made it painless to move all my pics, contacts and data to my new phone as well as downloading and installing the apps that I was using at the time of the switch.
The phone is fast - apps load and run quickly. The audio is also quite good. One of the best features is the camera - especially in low light level conditions. The quality of the phone is also really good. The speaker phone is sensitive and provides for good listening and talking when using it. You don't have to put the phone right by your mouth in order to be heard by the other person.
So overall I am totally happy with this phone. There are still some features I have yet to explore but I don't think there is going to be anything I find that will change my opinion. If you are looking for an upgrade - the S6 is a great chopice.

Great camera, sharp clear pictures. Battery life is horrible. I can barely get through 12hours without recharging, and I am not a heavy user.
Plus don't waste your money on the wireless charger. It charges to 100% then shuts off so after all night you have only 75%-80%battery life. We have two S 6's and two wireless chargers and they both do the same thing.

I love this phone. It is an upgrade from an S3 so it is much faster in just about everything. I'm not happy about not being able to add a microSD card or replace the battery but it provides enough storage that that shouldn't be a problem. Hopefully the battery will hold up as well as the one in the S3. The case is really slippery so it is almost mandatory to get a case to prevent it slipping out of your hand!

I have owned a Motorola Smartphone of some variety since the OG Droid and was a little leery about switching to Samsung since I was so used to Motorola. However, this phone has been nothing short of amazing. The materials used to build it, the snappy reactions, and the amazing pictures make this a great phone to own.

We all have to agree that it has been a while since the introduction of a breakthrough phone and Samsung galaxy s6 is not a breakthrough either. However with the best buy deal at the time I bought it, it was the best choice I could make.
Pros:
Great camera quality,
Good material quality,
Descent sound quality
Cons:
Battery Life
Battery Life (Just to emphasize)
Android gets laggy after a while

I love this new Samsung Galaxy S6 32 GB cell phone and would recommend it to anyone who has owned a Samsung galaxy phone in the past. It works great and has a good batter life. It is very slim and fits in my shirt pocket perfectly. I also like the camera on the phone it takes wonderful pictures day or night.

My phone calls are clearer than ever, even without HD voice; however HD voice is awesome! The processor is fast, and the phone charges super fast. It took me a little while to learn where all the settings were for my apps and the operating system, but now that I know, I love it. I wish my new Galaxy S6 was waterproof, but that's the only improvement I can think of.

This is a top-end phone. It has a great display, great camera, great voice activation, but...
Battery life is a large disappointment. Can barely make it thru a 12 hour day and I don't do lots of data download.
I had no trouble setting up my emails, gmail and cox, but upon signing into cox which is my main email, I got 369 emails. These were duplicates from my laptop, so I wanted to delete them. Unfortunately, the email app that comes with the phone has no "select all" command in the email inbox. Three Hundred and sixty nine times I had to select, delete and delete confirm!!! My previous 2 smartphones were a Motorola and a Blackberry. They both had such a command. Very disappointed with this device.

I upgraded from an old LG flip phone to the new S6. It is very fast and very responsive. The screen is very bright and detailed. I can watch 4K videos on it and it looks just great. The only thing I don't like about it is the battery just doesn't last as long as I'd like.

I have had the Samsung Galaxy S6 32GB Black model since its launch. While it takes some getting used coming back over to Android from iPhone, this phone so far has lived up to the hype. It is extremely fast over WiFi or 4G. The battery seems to last a good amount of time, and I do use the wireless charger every now and then. Overall, I am happy with my purchase and wish some of the apps would work better over bluetooth.

Updated from a Samsung Galaxy Note 3 and very happy with the choice. Although the Note was great it was too big, this phone is just right. Have an Iphone 6S for work and the Galaxy S6 is by far so much better.
