Samsung Galaxy S6 review: Back in the race!

Recommended: "Graphene Coated EOZ Air True Wireless Earbuds | Best buds in the Galaxy?"
We review the Samsung Galaxy S6 in an in-depth video paying close attention to its 5.1-inch QHD AMOLED screen, all-metal design and the eight cores under the hood.

On paper, the phone reads like a champion, and in reality, it's arguably the best Android around today. Is it the best though? Check out our full review to see for yourself and fire any questions in the comments section below.

I got my Galaxy S6 yesterday after selling my faithful Nexus 5, and I am absolutely blown away by the quality of this phone. The display is stunning, the metal body feels great, its stupid fast, and the camera is freaking awesome. The speaker is a little disappointing in how weak the bass and mid range is, but everything else more than makes up for that minor complaint. The included ear buds sound great so that helps too.

I think I'll miss running stock android and receiving timely updates, but I could always jailbreak it if I get desperate. Crossing my fingers for a strong modding community :)

Really great review as always. Love the S6. That camera is excellent

[burnout]

Great review, I would like to know where did you download that avengers wallpaper from.

Hey Btekt sad to hear about your SD card melting and yet a good review but not as detailed as your S6 Edge review was.
Nevertheless, keep it up I really do enjoy your videos

Excellent review, the camera and screen are definitely the biggest selling point for me, just wish the minimum amount of onboard memory was 64gb.Does it support OTG?

[benjmiester]

Just fyi, a launcher eliminates any of the "lag" you mentioned. Either that, or I have none. Didn't notice any on the touchwiz launcher either, but I could always check again. It's probably there, I just ditched it right away, like always :D The speaker comment is very true though. Good lord that thing is ridiculously loud!

Basil i am really suprised that you are not referring the Lg G4, is the main competitor of the S6 right now, the only with better or equal camera etc. How so?

Hoe much the usable space for the Galaxy s6 32GB?

[andipiro]

You keep mentioning that the S6 is not as premium as the S6 edge. Why ?

[aymanromhi]

Great review as usual from btekt but if we ignore the camera the S6 become normal phone I went to shops and carried both S6 and edge together with M9 and from design and quality point of view no comparison M9 is a winner . S6 is boring from the front on edges is iPhone 6 on the back is sony z series so nothing special and I personally find the edge is difficult to hold and ugly plus the edge is meaningless while LG flex has a purpose curve . Again camera is not important to me any cheap point and shoot in the pocket is superior to any phone I just use phone camera for Facebook. Battery is important and s6 fail to last a day . Super display is again wast of money the eye can't really distinguished much over 720 hd . So I find S6 a very good phone but not special . I owe Huawei mate 7 and iPhone 6 and both very good combination.

do Galaxy S6 Vs Xperia Z3 camera comparison

What is the anime shown at 10:00? Thanks for the review.

[epickelok]

The only thing I'm concern about is its battery life. I hope this phone could at least last a day for me

[ahscar]

Should I switch from xperia z3 to galaxy s6?

[dominicede]

Money's not an issue, S6 or S6 edge?

[troycambo]

Doesn't s6 heat up really badly after some slight usage? I handled a few display models and they burnt my hand.
Damn Koreans..

[nanezferrer]

Btekt  how ever tried the Galaxy gifts FROM this phone ?

[henchdan]

I honestly don't see how they've filled the phone up in a couple of weeks. They must be downloading loads of films and albums and everything, surely 32gb will be okay for the average user? Surely?

[benjmiester]

and the iphone is unapologetic-ally HTC.
