The launch proved to be difficult; However, I tend to encounter technical problems, wherever they hide themselves well before the waking eyes of the world public. After switching on you are a few basic data, then NFC pairing with my S5 - and the rest of the installation went with SmartSwitch almost by itself. Only that the device is then hooked so that I had to go back twice to factory settings. My advice: If you choose this procedure, leave the cell phone resting one day make it download anything, install and can replenish itself. Caution: The device requires a nano-SIM.
The question of the capacity of the battery is the critical user of course first on this machine, he's installed fixed. The first experience was shocking - 35% in an hour. This, however, become much better, now I'll go with one battery charge well over the day. The fast charger charges the battery with 1.6A 2.550mAh. That the Samsung advertising exaggerates the 10 minute charge, it is easy to calculate; But it is true that one is relatively fast again ready for use. Also inductive charging is supported.
From the exterior ago the S6 has completely changed: front glass, rear glass, in between a metal frame. The buttons (the volume is controlled by two push buttons, which I like better than the usual paddles) stand out clearly, as the camera. All in all chic, but the mobile phone is quite smooth and thus can neither hold particularly well nor is it safe on smooth surfaces. The status bar I can not pull down with one hand, as my little finger then periodically triggers the left softkey.
The display is high resolution and bright, easy to read even in sunlight. The speed can not be desired, only occasionally the system sluggish responds to inputs, without that I could see a reason for it.
The camera will occasionally settled on DSLR levels. It is true that it is good. A good smartphone camera, which can also be measured with some compacts. But definitely not a DSLR!
Compared with the S5, the surface has been considerably streamlined. The S Finder has been retained, with the one actually finds everything, even the often well-hidden system functions. Among the features that has been removed, I have as yet not missing. For this you can mute the device again (had fallen the Lollipop update the S5 victim). A private mode has been added, where files can be protected from prying eyes. Smart Lock pleases me well: In a familiar environment (to identify via GPS or Bluetooth, via voice does not work for me) attributable to desire the need for PIN entry.
That Samsung has decided to build in fixed battery and memory, I think is unfortunate. This is the buyer, however, well known by the product description, so that everyone can decide for themselves. The super smooth surface I see with question marks, but is also a matter of taste. All in all, keeping the Galaxy S6, however, a high-end device in his hand, which corresponds in every respect to the prior art.
