This is the phone that the iPhone 6 will contend the title of best seller of the year: the Galaxy S6 , the new flagship model of the collection of Android Samsung, is ready to make its entry into the market. From next April we will see a little ‘anywhere in its two new and sparkling versions: the classical ( Galaxy S6 ) and one with curved profile ( Galaxy S6 Edge ).
It is on this version – the original, as well as the most expensive – which will focus our attention today, with an analysis that aims to dissect strengths and weaknesses Terminal . We have gathered below in a number of considerations on the reasons that make this phone a model to buy without much ado and on those who, by contrast, are a bit ‘up their noses [Scroll Next to continue].
Yes: the design
A phone with a display rounded on both sides had never seen. And so if you’re the kind of people who want to stand out from the crowd, with a Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge play it safe. Your friends will want to see it up close, touch it, see what you can do with two rounded edges (but more on that later). Beyond the curve, then we must admit that this time Samsung has done things right: no plastic, no rough finishes, everything is a triumph of glass and aluminum . 800-odd euro for a phone will also be a blow to the finances, but knowing that you have in your hands an object built with all the trappings certainly sweetens the pill
Yes: the camera
The statistics tell us that the smartphone has become our first camera. And Samsung has worked hard to make its bearer a tool to the occasion. Been a bit ‘to hear what plans the menu photo of Galaxy S6 Edge: 16 megapixel main camera with very bright lens (F 1.9), front 5-megapixel front camera, optical stabilizer, white balance with infrared sensor, autofocus system with “tracking” of the moving subject. But the most ingenious feature is perhaps the simplest one, you can access the camera at any time (even with the phone in standby mode) with a double click the home button . A Cupertino someone leaped from his chair.
Yes: recharges in a flash
For the moment we do not know how long the battery of the new Samsung Galaxy S6. But we can definitely say that the charge will be a godsend. The times reported by Samsung to make a full record of energy are, they speak of a 50% speed increase compared to the last Galaxy models, with a guaranteed minimum of 2 hours of video playback after just 10 minutes Charging . Plus the ability to use a system of wireless charging through the appropriate accessory for sale at a price of about 60 euro.
No: what are the curved edges?
Let’s face it. If an aesthetic found the curved display is quite attractive, and functionally can not say the same. Apart from some notification activated with the phone in standby, the rounded area of the Galaxy S6 offers no additional viewing than the flat part of the display. The idea (actually brilliant) Edge of the Samsung Galaxy Note, that of a phone with the curved side independent of the main display in order to streamline the transition from one application to another, was not replicated. Too bad.
No: the battery does not come off
On concept of removable battery Samsung has built over the years a veritable treatise on philosophy of flexibility. Now, with the Galaxy S6, the Korean company seems to deny the past, embracing a completely opposite (someone said Apple?): The battery, you have it figured out, it can not be extracted. You in welded monocoque body of the phone, so that it will be impossible to replace. In case of problems we must move from technical assistance of the house. Maybe spending a little more.
No: say goodbye to the memory card
There is another aspect, not really exciting, that brings Samsung to Apple, and is the lack of a slot for memory cards . That’s right. The Samsung Galaxy S6 can not be expanded in any way. Who will want to have more “giga” in the bag will have no choice but to buy the model with the highest cutting memory (64 GB and, later, maybe even 128 GB). At a cost that is not exactly that of a MicroSD.
