Samsung Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge specifications, price and release date
Yesterday that lifted the veil on Samsung Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge, during a special event during which the Korean opened the ball MWC 2015. After a difficult 2014 due particularly disastrous sales of the Galaxy S5, Korean will have at heart to show its know-how in 2015 and it is already feeling as soon as sets eyes on his last two finials.
With his last two flagships, Samsung has finally decided to make the transition metal. A change long overdue from its users and sketched over the last few months with the Galaxy Alpha, the Galaxy Note 4 and of course, the Galaxy range A.
After proposing a range Galaxy A hailed for its premium design, Samsung went even further with its latest flagship and its curved variant. The program, a design combining noble materials that has nothing to envy to competition and touted by Samsung as 50% stronger than the best smartphones on the market. The time when competitors Samsung trollaient design supposedly "cheap" its upmarket finally seems definitely over.

By offering a new generation of its flagship smartphone, Samsung has not only meant to review its storage capacity on the rise, offering three storage options of 32, 64 and 128 GB and integrating its latest memory module UFS 2.0 turns out to be 2.7 times faster than the memory eMMC 5.0 we found so far in the high-end phones.
In return, we lose SD slot, because of the unibody design of the two devices. That said when deciding to opt for the version with 64GB of storage natively, is it really a problem?
Obviously when a new high-end product is created, the quality of the screen is a strong argument for manufacturers to differentiate themselves from the competition. While it retains the same diagonal of 5.1 inches as the S5, Galaxy S6 and Edge S6 screen goes To Full HD 1080p definition Quad HD 2560 x 1440 pixels.
Both terminals provide a resolution of 577 dpi, while providing a brightness 600 cd / m. The screen of the two flagships of the glass is covered strongest protection of the market, Gorilla Glass 4, we already found on the Galaxy Alpha and Galaxy Note 4.
Like the Note 4, the Galaxy S6 is entitled to its curved variant. The originality of this variant is that the screen is curved, not just the right but in the two groups.
Apart from this feature, the device retains exactly the same specifications as its counterpart, not curved, apart from its battery whose capacity is slightly higher since 2600 mAh against 2550 mAh for the S6.
Engraved in 14 nanometers, the Exynos 7420 processor last two Korean jewels is able to offer 20% more performance and especially reduced energy consumption by 30 to 35%, compared to a processor engraved in 20 nanometers.
Based on preliminary benchmarks identified before and after the special event from Samsung, it seems we do not lose the exchange of the performance side as the Edge S6 already reached amazing scores with more than 60,000 points AnTuTu. Unheard of!

If the Galaxy S5 proposed a battery of 2800 mAh, those of the Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge are limited to 2550 and 2600 mAh. A decision probably related to the thickness of the two flagships since while the first measuring just 6.8 mm, the second shows a thickness of just 7 mm.
Fortunately, Samsung has jumped the gun by proposing two natively compatible devices with wireless charging, the Korean technology seems determined to democratize with its next generation of smartphones. No need to buy a specific replacement shell to make compatible device, which would, in any case impossible with a unibody design.
Fast charging is also present and provides 4 hours of battery life in just 10 minutes of charging. More generally, the battery of the two new models will load 1.5 times faster than the S6.
12 hours surfing Wifi
11:00 4G Surf
13 hours of video playback
49 hours of audio playback
With its latest high-end, Samsung made sure to bring two major improvements to the onboard user overlay, TouchWiz. The new version is lighter and would obviously devoid of lag that has often criticized. More generally, the interface has been simplified and has notably fewer buttons for ease of use
Most of Samsung applications, usually preinstalled on devices not stay gone for two in number: Health S and S Voice. Other securities are offered to the user through the Galaxy Apps. It will therefore be free to download them or not.
In return, we will find three Microsoft applications - Skype, OneNote and OneDrive with 115 GB of storage available over a two year period. Facebook and WhatsApp would also preinstalled
The new UI also offers more customization via the Theme Center. The various topics are used to change not only the visual appearance of its smartphone, but also the sounds. Many topics will be offered for download through the Theme Center. However, it is unclear whether Samsung will authorize or third-party developers to create their own themes.
Launched last year, the photo sensor ISOCELL Galaxy S5 was already offering excellent quality. however, thanks to its f / 1.9, that of the two latest Samsung florets should give great results in low light. Here, for comparison, a first sample Galaxy S6 vs iPhone 6 proposed by Samsung.
Like the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus, the S6 and S6 Edge inaugurate a mobile payment system called Samsung Pay. However, unlike Apple technology that requires compatible NFC payment terminals to operate, one developed by LoopPay is compatible with more than 30 million payment terminals around the world with secure magnetic transmission (STDs).
In order to develop its mobile payment platform, Samsung has partnered with Visa and MasterCard and is currently negotiating with other banking institutions such as American Express. The service will be launched next summer in the US and South Korea and will arrive in China and Europe later.
