Samsung has recently released the Galaxy S6. The new phone has been noted for being a much better looking than previous generations. Though, there was some key changes made. They have actually gotten rid of features that most S3, S4, and S5 users loved. The S6 has also made the design, although nice looking, not very practical for actual use. For these reasons the S6 has been labeled an example of style over substance.
As mentioned earlier, the S6 has removed older features that were present in previous gen phones. One that attract many buyers was the waterproofing of the S5. Another was the ability to add storage with a micro SD. One of the biggest things people are bothered by is the total lack of a removable battery. Some may have found this ok if it was waterproofed, but now if you get water on it you must replace the entire phone.
There is however some big perks for in favor of the S6 however, the first of course being the much better look. The Samsung produced Exynos processor is considerably faster than the older Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 in the S5. The screen of the S6 also has a higher resolution, which is 1440p, much better than the 1080p screen of the S5. There is also a new camera that picks up details in shadows and isn't prone to the blur that the S5's was noted for, the resolution is the same however. To summarize, the Samsung Galaxy S6 is a great phone, but it does lack the features some would expect from a Galaxy S.
