Samsung Galaxy S6 is a brilliantly made Android device released back in 2015, packed with a high speed Octa-Core CPU (they are really a Quad-Core running at 2100 MHz and another Quad-Core clocking at 1500 MHz), a good size 5.1-inches display, a 16 mega-pixels back side camera and a 5 megapixels front facing camera.
Samsung sells this device with a Exynos 7 Octa 7420 chip, which holds a very powerful 64 bit Octa-Core CPU (formed by a Quad-Core at 2.1 gigahertz and a Quad-Core ticking at 1.5 GHz) with a great 3 GB of RAM memory. Graphic intensive games and apps usually eats lots of processor time, so this phone uses an additional 650 MHz Mali-T760 MP8 GPU to take some work out of the processor. This cellphone has an amazing 128 GB internal storage and whereas it doesn't come with a slot for an SD memory card, it is still enough to store hundreds of applications without worrying about running out of space.
This cellphone has a beautiful design, with a thickness of just 0.27". The Samsung Galaxy S6 is only 5.65 inches long, but it's able to fit a a 5.1 inches screen. Samsung made this cellphoneavailable only in multiple colors, black, blue, white and gold. This phone design is a mix of Glass and Aluminium, which gives it a high quality feel and a better resistance. This cellphone is much lighter than what you expect from a phone this size.
This phone is equipped with two cameras, a 16 mega-pixels back-facing camera and a 5 MP front-facing camera. Its back-facing camera has a maximum f/1.9 aperture so it can shoot detailed pictures even in low lighting conditions. It is also able to capture 3840x2160 4K videos at 30 fps. This device also includes many useful characteristics like auto-focus, flash, fast burst mode, face detection shooting, optical image stabilization, smile detection shooting, HDR mode and geo tagging.
This cellphone includes a high-tech 5.1 inches screen with a 2560 x 1440 (Quad HD / 2K) resolution, which makes all images and videos look completely perfect. This screen uses Super AMOLED capacitive technology, and allows multi-touch for gestures like pinch and zoom.
The S6 includes WiFi connectivity (and it can be shared with other devices acting as a mobile hotspot), 4G (LTE-A) , the fastest connection type and 3G fast connection type, supported by HSPA, HSUPA, UMTS and EDGE technologies. This phone uses a Nano SIM card to connect to GSM networks.
This phone comes with a 2550 mAh big non-removable battery, enough to provide the S6 with an amazing battery duration. An issue to evaluate is that this cellphone's battery isn't replaceable so you can't buy a new battery when it begins losing capacity, whereas with this big battery you will probably discard this cellphone before it becomes an issue.
This phone also comes with many cool characteristics such as Fingerprint unlock, Wireless charging capability, NFC (to trigger actions, transfer data or make payments by holding your cellphone close to another NFC device or tag), Infrared Port, Bluetooth and GPS, and plenty of sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer, Gyroscope, Barometer and Compass.
This phone is an impressive device and it's priced around 365 dollars, which is quite the same as other similar phones. No matter if you will use it as a gamer cellphone, want it for work, you love taking pictures or want a cellphone to majorly use social networks and internet browsing, you will definitely love this cellphone.
