Often denoted as the rival of the Apple,s iPhone 6, it is till date one of the best smartphones that Samsung has ever launched.
Samsung found itself in sort of a bind last year: Its flagship Galaxy S5 wasn't the blockbuster the company hoped it would be. That, coupled with the news that Samsung was going to focus on a smaller number of devices in 2015, signaled a pretty dramatic change for a brand that seemed like it was unstoppable. As if to silence the doubters, Samsung has offerred its flagships -- the Galaxy S6 -- and its surrounded by questions. Can it restore Samsung to its former glory? Has the company figured out how to build a truly interesting smartphone again? It's too early to make a call on the former, but after a week of testing, the answer to the latter is a clear and definite "yes."
PROS
- Sturdy, stylish design
- Impeccable camera experience
- Great day-to-day performance
- TouchWiz is finally worth using
CONS
- Battery life could be better
- Fingerprint sensor can be flaky
- It's not waterproof
- No microSD or removable battery
SUMMARY
Samsung has a lot riding on its 2015 flagship, and this time it's put its best foot forward. With its super-fast, homebrew processor, a pair of great cameras and a surprisingly clean version of TouchWiz, the S6 is the finest Galaxy Samsung has ever made. Now, if only it were waterproof.
