Galaxy S6

[jamezr]

How would you rate the phone against the Nexus 6? Assume size is no issue.

I like the Nexus 6. It is a great phone. But the issues i have with the phone.
IMHO the screen and camera are the weak points on the N6. Battery life is great and the feel and responsiveness of the phone is topnotch.

Just about to finish my S6 order in Gold.

I have tried to like it, but I can't. I just do not like the power button being lowered on my GS6. I don't know why but I always am hitting the volume buttons a lot odd the time when hitting the power button which takes off the mute. I don't always just press the power button when holding the phone in my hand.
That's a negative for me.

Trust me it's better than the M9. It's button placement is a nightmare

That one is on top? I've never had any of those M's

Nobody took advantage of the T-Mobile sale and got their tracking number(s) yet?

Can't believe this is actually happening: http://www.theverge.com/2015/5/26/8658659/iron-man-galaxy-s6-edge-samsung-limited-edition

I personally don't like it, but it's another color option and it's cool for the fans.

EDIT: Oops. Looks like it's only for Asian markets?

I am all for choices......but that is hideous

I think the coloring is pretty. I just don't like the giant Iron Man sticker on the back or the Iron Man boot screen.

 

[TechnicallyTee]

Yeah I don't think its a bad color combo, just like said above, logo on the back kind of kills it for me.

Agreed, that is just awful.

Has anyone noticed the Gesture Wake adversely affecting battery life?

I have it on. Love it. Not seen it affect battery in any noticeably negative way.

 

[LukinLedbetter]

Thanks. I finally got around to turning it on. Really like it so far.

Me too. I have a wireless charging stand (not pad) and it feels great to just wave my hand in front of it to wake the device to see what notifications I've missed.

And my phone is still sitting there, waiting for the UPS to do ANYTHING in the way of delivering it to me. :|

The waiting is the hardest part.

(Tom Petty taught me that!)

I'd at least be happy if I saw it had gone somewhere today. At least then I'd, well, know it was coming soon. I'd even have a date on when it shows up. "Order Processed: Ready for UPS" just tells me they haven't done jack all day. >_>

I agree

thanks....now I can't get that song out of my head!

Well I've essentially just sold the Ironman S6 to a friend of mine. He always buys Ironman covers for his iPhone and his eyes lit up at that device. Even if he doesn't like the OS he'll still love the phone no doubt.

Proof marketing can work purely on aesthetics lol.

If they release a blue Captain America edition, I might have to be all over that one!

Maybe that one will look better. But that red on the Ironman one hurts my eyes!

Anyone know how I can sell my 64 gb Galaxy S6 Edge Gold sealed retail box the quickest? Swappa.com's pricing is weird because someone is selling "new resale" for $695 and that hurts my value big time for the retail sealed box I have.
