    Any chance of 5.1 update?

    I haven't updated my S4 to 5.0 yet, but if it's anything like my 2nd gen Nexus 7, performance on certain apps (SimCity Buildit) may drop considerably. 5.1 fixed the issues though. With that said, do you guys think that 5.1 will ever see the light of day on the AT&T S4?

    Question about camera & picture size

    I wear glasses and notice a bit of difference between pictures taken from the iPhone 6+ (8mp) and the Galaxy S6 (16mp). 16mp allows for more detail from things like the threads of a carpet, the fur on a cat, to the intricate patterns on clothes. While distinct when taken with 16mp, such details...

    Who is going to pay retail price?

    I wish that paying full price also freed people from having to deal with additional carrier software built into the phone.

    Samsung Galaxy S6 So tired of hearing negative reports is anyone happy

    Re: So tired of hearing negative reports us anyone happy The S6 wasn't leggy at all when I was playing with it. Every aspect of the software ran really smoothly. Got to hand it to their marketing team. Prior to their use of NFC in the iPhone, paying at terminals via the phone was largely...

    Can the S6 be purchased carrier-free?

    That's even worse news if true. I was hoping Samsung would have included all the radios on all the carrier versions in order to cut costs and stuff.

    Can the S6 be purchased carrier-free?

    So I should be searching for an international version? Are those vendors legit? I was hoping to buy direct from Samsing or possibly from the Google Play Store.

    does optical image stabilization work when taking still images? Or is it only for video?

    The OIS should work the same on both phones for both photo and video. In the limited time I got to play with an S6 at Best Buy, my iPhone 6+ camera focused quicker and was able to capture more consistently clear pics than the S6.

    Can the S6 be purchased carrier-free?

    Does anyone know if Samsung will be selling an unlocked, carrier-free, version of the S6? Since it seems like I'll eventually be paying the MSRP for the phone anyway via NEXT, I would prefer to get one without all the extra apps that the carrier includes.

    Anyone ditching the iPhone?

    I'm in the same boat. I fiddled around with the S6 the other day at Best Buy and it seemed to have the same camera issues that my S4 had. Indoor pictures came out blurry sometimes, so I would have to snap 3-4 pictures just to make sure that at least one of them would be clear. It might have...
