    While this is definitely a powerful phone it has certain "lag" issues that really made me dock two stars. The phone is not seemless when switching tasks and tends to lag as you are moving from screen to screen. This taken with the fact that it has only one antenna for both data and calling really upsets me: my sprint samsung s6 cannot browse the web while making a call! That alone had me considering whether or not I should return this device. I ultimately decided to keep it because of a workaround.

    This phone is a definite upgrade from the S5. I like the look and feel but there are a few things I have a problem with. I don't like the fact that the battery cannot be replaced. It does not hold a charge for long. I also miss the SD card slot from my old galaxies.

    This is my 3rd Samsung Galaxy phone, 2,4,and 6. They have all been great phones! The s6 is easy to use, the sound is much better than the s4, super fast phone. I have no complaints.

    Galaxy S6 Rocks

    I am not a big technology buff/guru or someone that uses every single feature on a phone, but I do love the new Galaxy S6 and I love, love, love, love the camera! The pixels, the picture clarity, and everything about this camera is great! I have only had the phone for 3 months, so I'm still getting used to some of the features and learning the phone. However, I do not have any complaints thus far about the phone. I previously had the Galaxy S3, so it is definitely a big difference in jumping three generations.

    Love the S6 edge!! It is so versatile. Just wish it had an SD card. I keep getting notices that various apps can be transferred to the SD card..... but, don't have one. Love the wireless charging.

    I upgraded to this phone and am only leasing it, but I do love it so far. The first difference I noticed is the camera quality and speediness of it.

    It's the S4 with no Expandable Memory or Battery

    Don't get me wrong--this is a good phone--I loved my S4, but while they've upgraded the camera, they've taken away the ability to expand the memory or easily replace the battery. Where I used to be able to go to Amazon for new battery (for $5), now I have to go to Samsung or Best Buy and pay what I can only imagine will be $75+. If you really want the upgraded camera, which is really good, pick up the S6. If not, look to the S4/S5 or another brand all together. HTC and LG make some great contemporary competition for this phone.

    I always been a galaxy fan ever since the 3 came out I've upgraded and I am so satisfied with the features of this new Galaxy s6. You guys came a very long way. My only upset about this phone is the fact that the battery life is so short.i can't understand why we were given a new product that downgrades the capacity of the battery. So I'm guessing I have to wait to the s7 to get a satisfying battery capacity?

    Love this phone, switched from Samsung Galaxy S III to this S6. Has a sleeker design. On/Off button and Up/Down sound buttons react much better then the S III. Picture quality is amazing! Big difference! FYI... if you have your old data moved from your old phone to this one.. Photo albums are lost and all pictures are refiled by date...so you have to reorganize them into albums again if that is what you prefer and also the same with any personalized ringtones from your old phone... you will need to find and record them again... Other than that this is a fabulous phone and I am extremely happy with it!!!

    Overall, I'm quite happy with my decision to wait until the release date, though initially frustrated over the repeated delays. Fixed many prior issues. I have has some difficulty with some settings, as subtle differences are a little tricky to find. Othewise, very easy to use. With regards to BestBuy, they need to fix the lack of interface between online preorders and the store itself. HUGE delay as a result, and the staff was frustrated at the known issue. Samsung rep was very helpful.

    Very happy with this purchase, but buying online from a 3rd party (Best Buy) and connecting to my phone server was quite a hassle. I wanted to buy the phone and not lease it, which caused all sorts of confusion. Still getting used to the differences in navigation though, finding where things are. It came with a bunch of apps already installed, some I can use, while other I don't need. The differences I found are more functionality compared to the gs4 I previously owned. Some navigation require more steps, while others are one click. One of the features advertised said it (included) international calling. Not the case, it's a separate charge, but international calling appealed to me, and I was paying for international calling with my gs4. I checked and compared the IPhone6 plus, and I chose the gs6 mainly because I was familiar with android, and I am not ready to change to IPhone, even though I would love to be able to get my iTunes on my droid device, as I have a library of music I can't listen to on my droid. I will have to settle for listening to iTunes on my desktop, (someone needs to create an app so this can be possible?) but I would recommend this phone to my friends, that's how much I like it.

    This phone is very fast with it's octa core! I upgrade from the s4. I got 64gb one,no need for a memory card. Only complaint is just like everbody else is complaing about is can't remove the battery. But that's ok because I have plenty of chargers.

    Upgraded to S6 for S4

    Been using S6 for a little over a month, so far so good. Little disappointed that you can't insert a memory card, so get one with larger memory space (at least 64) or you will be deleting apps and pictures to accommodate all the updates as it gets close to your time to upgrade. If you don't take a lot of pictures or use alot of apps then a 32 would be fine.
