The Samsung Galaxy S6 smartphone is the flagship for the year 2015 under the Samsung name. It arrived during April and also comes with a curved version called the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge.

The Samsung Galaxy S5 smartphone was a disappointment, which eventually lead to the release of the head of design. Suffice to say, it was a big year for Samsung and what they had hoped would be the now worlds best smartphone with the Galaxy S6.

The Samsung Galaxy S6 is one of the best smartphone out there you can buy from any brand. It came with Android 5.0.2 Lollipop out of the box, but you can accept the OTA notification and upgrade to Android 5.1.1 Lollipop. The S6 will soon get the Android 6.0 Marshmallow update arriving over the air to install too.

The S6 comes in some great color choices, including the gold that looks great. Overall, the device is slim and gives a premium feel in the hand/looks like a premium device from a distance. One downside is that most phone cases for the S6 are downright ugly.

It comes with a whopping 128 GB of built-in storage space, but no expandable storage options via MicroSD card.
