NEXT is two of the most beautiful smartphones ever created - the Galaxy S6 and the Galaxy S6 edge - and they're available now.
Samsung announced the Galaxy S6 at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona on March 1, 2015, as a fresh successor to 2014's Galaxy S5. Aside from the general shape and size, there's not much in common between the two models.
The Galaxy S6 has the same sized 5.1-inch screen and button placements, but is made of a solid metal frame with Gorilla Glass 4 on both sides giving it a completely different look and feel. The display is now QHD (2560x1440), and the internals have been bumped up to support it — with an Exynos octa-core processor, 3GB of RAM and 32/64/128GB of storage.
With the design change Samsung also decided to drop the seemingly-popular SDcard slot and removable battery (which is a smaller 2550mAh unit), and instead thinned out the phone to just 6.8mm thick and included both Qi and Powermat wireless charging capabilities.
The Galaxy S6 launched globally at the beginning of April in four different colors — white, black, gold and blue — with support from the major U.S. carriers and retailers, as you'd expect.
