Samsung Galaxy S6 and S6 Galaxy Edge – first impressions … – Spider’s Web

Samsung unveiled just in Barcelona its two new smartphones. We’re here and we had the opportunity to spend a moment alone with iPhone-like 6 flat phone Galaxy Galaxy S6 and S6 sensational Edge with a curved screen. It is time to share your first impressions of both.

When I was ready to recognize that the development of smartphones androidowych stopped for good Samsung showed that it still has an idea how to revitalize this market. On the one hand, the Galaxy S6 is simply vulgar copy of the latest Apple phone design, but on the other hand, the Galaxy S6 Edge is one of the best smartphones we’ve seen so far.

History has come full circle.

Looking at the Galaxy S6 I can not help but smile. When I brought the iPhone 6 Dresden was very significant that after the meeting of the new technologies market nieśledzących had to answer questions “about what the new Samsung?”. Now in six months of this situation I can bet that many less informed people consider that the Galaxy S6 is a new product from Apple’s offer.

Samsung product similarities to the iPhone if you look at the lower edge of live are even more striking than in the pictures, which even before the release of the smartphone hit the net. If you are using Galaxy SII Samsung’s lawyers accused Apple of copying the iPhone design is now really need to write more lawsuits fury. Do not be surprised if the patent war to flare up again.

Fortunately, this is not a problem for customers.

Designers Samsung for several years suffered a creative crisis, and three consecutive devices Galaxy S family – that is, those issued after the revolutionary SII – looked very similar. Used better and more detailed screens and experimented with body size, but in fact it was just further revisions of the same phone.

The deadlock was finally overcome. Already last year, the first Alpha Galaxy model, then the Galaxy Note 4, and the most important in the context of today’s premiere Edge Galaxy Note, Samsung showed that departs from plastic. Galaxy S6 version so. Flat and Galaxy S6 Edge is a very bold change, from which customers should be satisfied.



How does the Galaxy S6 in practice?

The latest chart-topping Samsung phone is somewhat overshadowed by his strange cousin Edge with a note, but still he will be in the next year in the center of the mobile product portfolio of the Korean manufacturer. It is also a symbol of the changes that have taken place in the company, which eventually took advantage of … ideas competition. On the model of the iPhone is not the way to find the microSD card slot cover and a removable battery.

Galaxy S6 is also the first flagship phone for Samsung, who, as a high-end model without compromising the specification is extremely elegant and … chic. Finally, he feels that it is buying a unit in the premium segment, as in the case of previous models indicated only specification and price glued to the box.



surprising change in design

So far, Samsung devices due to the lower cost of production were made using a plastic – high quality, but still plastic. Now the Korean company has decided to follow the example of Sony, and as is the case in the family Xperiach With plecki devices are made of hardened glass, which runs around the metal frame.

This is both good and bad decision. The phone looks great, but you have concerns about its strength – although company officials rebuked the stage – “We do not bend”! The company has also moved away from the idea of ​​the use of mobile devices caricature looks microUSB 3.0 port and decided on a classic, much smaller microUSB 2.0 port.



It met my great surprise after the first unlocking the screen.

5.1-inch Super AMOLED screen with a resolution of 2K gives an amazing density of pixels at 577 ppi and looks simply ludicrous. But still, I stand by the opinion that with such a display surface would rather see it Full HD screen, which would translate into a longer operation time on a single charge. But let us be of good cheer – I hope that Samsung is not pokpił case and built-in battery is enough to smartphone worked at least one day.

Much more, however, than the resolution of the Galaxy S6 I was surprised by what I saw after unlocking the screen. I did not think that it ever say this, but the new TouchWiz looks really nice and ascetically and does not affect the user a lot of icons unknown destination. It is true that previous Samsung exceptionally undercut overlay bar, but even so the designers from Korea are a big round of applause – break with the past, both in terms hardware’owym, and software-as.



The pearl in the offer, or Galaxy S6 Edge

As Galacy S6 Flat version can jokingly called iPhone ‘m 6s, so have the phone in option completely captivated Edge me and I think it came from the hand of the artist, not the consultant craftsman in addition to a lawyer. The main difference between the model Galaxy S6 variant Flat Edge with respect to a curved screen is obviously acting mainly an aesthetic function. However, it varies a lot in the perception of the device.

The image seems to follow from your phone, but it does not have the impression that the hand to cause some function or something overshadow. The phone is comparable in size to the iPhone 6 with a screen 0.3 inch lower. When it comes to image detail, clarity and color I am unable to agree with employees Samsung – it’s the best display on the phone what I’ve seen so far. A pleasant surprise is really fast catching focus camera, and the images are impressive – I had the opportunity to perform a few photographs.

Sample images from the camera SGS6:

Samsung also withdrew from the imperfect idea.

After the presentation Galaxy Note Edge did not look optimistic rumors Galaxy S6 Edge. Very well, however, that Samsung is not placed in the new top of the range model, known for its Galaxy Note Edge accessories and de facto strip unnecessary widgets on the screen. Instead, the entire desktop is just a gentle stretch on both sides and will be used to “pull” the faces of friends in a form similar to chatheads.

Phone in the variant with a curved screen looks bomber and frankly it … tarnish classic model! When choosing a new phone did not brałbym considered version of “Flat”. I would happily turned on the new Galaxy S6 Edge of my Apple iPhone 6. Your phone is not enough that the iPhone is not the prettiest in history, it had already opatrzeć me. It is of course one condition: Galaxy S6 would have to be running iOS.



This is obviously unrealistic, and it is the operating system will be the biggest obstacle in the minds of many Apple customers migrating to the new Galaxy.

I am sure that your new phone Samsung wants to fight mainly for customers of Apple. If that was the goal, the company chose the best possible way of radically changing the appearance of the device. Both variants of the Galaxy S6 are so similar to the new iPhone 6, to attract users of Apple devices. Model Edge offers the truly unusual styling and the same is likely to encourage a bit bored with customers Apple to change your brand.

iPhone 6 or SGS6?

The only problem I see is a commitment to ecosystem services, users of Apple – I already can not imagine abandoning iCloud for the look of your phone. IPhone owners and computers with Windows is much more than people additionally equipped MacBook, iMac or Mac Mini. Apple customers who use the computer without OS X change should come much easier.



This would weaken the biggest competitor to Samsung.

So far, plastic Samsung Galaxy S was wagered on the opposition to the metal and elegant iPhone. Now it is changing, and the Koreans proved that they can not only use the photocopiers – which of course is still in a sense they do – but also introduce their authors, and most importantly, successful ideas.

I am very pleasantly surprised Galaxy S6 . I have to admit that even though the signal coming changes in policy by such models of Samsung Galaxy Alpha, the Galaxy Note and Galaxy Note 4 Edge did not believe that Samsung will make an attempt to take such a bold step and firmly breaks with the past.



Despite a great first impression I know it’s true, they do not sit in the foreseeable future for Android again – but if I would have to do it, it would be the Galaxy S6 Edge first candidate today.
