Samsung Galaxy S6 Active to feature a 5.5-inch screen, test units suggest

Just three days ago, mobile tech leakster @upleaks provided information regarding a new Samsung smartphone, which he believes to be the Galaxy S6 Active for American carrier AT&T. The new device, bearing the model number SM-G890A, seems to be the successor to the Galaxy S5 Active (SM-G870A). Samsung’s Galaxy S6 model number is SM-G920. The “A” at the end of the suspicious smartphone’s model number could be the letter for a water-resistant Galaxy S6 variant that’s headed to AT&T.

Now, Zauba, a well-known import/export tracking site, offers additional information about Samsung’s upcoming device. According to the leaked report, the new device is a “mobile phone” with a screen size of 5.5 inches (“S.S 5.5”). Interestingly enough, the report also says that there are two shipments, one with 15 phones and another with 5 phones, and that these are for testing and evaluation purposes rather than for sale. It’s no surprise that manufacturers test their smartphones before they’re available – at least we’d hope so.

We all knew this was coming.

How long before S6 Mini or S6 zoom ?
Yeah we all knew this was coming. This is why I laugh so hard at all those who say Samsung is now copying Apples business model. Samsung releases a phone for just about every customer need they can think of.

Yeah I don't mind this model. More choices to fit more people's needs. I'm glad they're not like Apple's business model.
